Gotta love the self-assessment system. I'm not trying to remove anything, so I don't know what it wants me to delete, but I can't progress until I beat this level. (I wonder if it's because it's randomly added an employer I've not had since 2013 and I changed the number of employments to 1.)

For the last 2 days I've been fed a film ad multiple times & I keep thinking the main actor is a 90s UK comedy actor, but I can't remember his surname. I've been down a Wikipedia rabbit hole to try to find it and discovered that Russ Abbot is still alive. Surprising info that needed to be shared.

Love getting up in the very dark, only to step on a poo one of the cats left in the night. (Thankfully, in slippers!) It's not like there was a litter tray 10 metres away from that spot. Oh, hold on…

Something roughly the size of a grey squirrel but with a thin tail and brown fur just bounced across part of my garden. WTF was it?!

A post by @chrisbrosnahan.com reminded me, though not similar…
Last Saturday, we stopped at a McDonald's in a leisure park around 8pm. Walking in, there were a dozen mid-teen kids hanging in 2-3 groups being a bit rowdy amongst themselves. We ordered & sat away from them.

Pre-cooking the roasties (they will get more oven time tomorrow, but less than it would have been) & I may have over parboiled them. We can use the left half like a salad topper but all over the dinner, maybe.

Finally deleted the FB page for the rock snake I started back in 2020. That I've ignored since someone smashed the head in 2021. Mainly deleted it 'cos FB decided it was a business page & kept pestering me to use it better.

Watching some South Park episodes with my 13yo. I created a list of which ones to watch based on various internet threads/articles. Somehow managed to watch one that described a bunch of ridiculous porn acts last night. Oops.

No WiFi since 8pm and the service outage page is suggesting it will be fixed at 16:12 tomorrow. WTF?! (Mobile signal is patchy, works maybe 5% of the time.)

First dental hygienist appointment in years this morning & she recommended one type of floss as the only one that would fit between my tight teeth (I water floss due to lack of options). Went online to buy it & all the reviews from the last few months are talking about how awful the new version is.

I'm feeling hard done by because I've had to cancel my (watching) darts plans for tonight because I'm not well enough. As a freelancer, that was probably my main xmas social and I don't often do weekends away from the family. I've had this cold for at least 12 days. Why am I still ill?!

I didn't know they existed until this morning, but I've now looked through the LEGO One Piece sets and cannot see the best character. Give me a Tony Tony Chopper minifigure, cowards!

Many weird and wonderful dreams last night caused by my having a cold. In one, I named a spider Patrick Swayze.
