I’m early to lunch so ordered an old fashioned and pulled the notebook out. I always carry a field notes size with me ready to jot things down.

It’s great for helping to process thoughts and get them out of my head.

I can revisit later rather than have them crashing and bouncing around in there.

🚌 Getting the 50c uber to lunch with a friend.

🍷 Middle of my five day long weekend. Time to head out and meet a friend for a long lunch.

😠 Present Peter is cranky with Past Peter’s decision to not buy snacks when doing the grocery shopping.

Having a five day long weekend thanks to two days of leave and a Wednesday public holiday.

Have a few things lined up to do on other days but the rainy weather today is perfect for my Saturday plan: stay home, don’t talk to people, reset the very drained social battery.

I’m located in the diagonally opposite far corner to the exit door. We have automatic lights which turn off if no movement. Everyone else has gone and the rest of the floor is in semi-darkness. I shall now play the game of trying to activate as few lights as possible as I leave.

Friday mood.

A black and white enamel badge pinned to a dark jacket. The badge has a sad panda sitting down and a rectangular box below with the words - I can’t adult today

Explaining the concept of walking in a straight line to the cat and being ignored as she weaves her way in front of me.

I swear, they will find me dead having tried to avoid stepping on her and crashing backwards instead.

Most people tapping on/off the bus using their phones and credit cards and I’m sitting here topping up my Go Card online because it gave the low balance warning as I boarded. I like having a separate card. 🤷🏻‍♂️ 🚌

Truth. 🐱🐈

A metal badge pinned on a green jacket. The badge is shaped like the head of a cat. Pink around the edge there is a light blue centre with a white cat paw straight up from the bottom with pink toe beans visible. Dark blue lettering says - No beans like toe beans
