Excuse me but #mrguesting?!

I tried to read Open, Heaven by Seán Hewitt. There was some beautiful writing in there but it was an excruciatingly dull story and I had zero empathy for a grown-arse man who lived his whole life in neutral, pining for an unrequited teenage love. Get it together!

I like to know there’s some there should I fancy it.

Double fisting a wine and a strawberry smoothie while I make fried rice with scrambled tofu. #amazingreallifeupdates

I’ve given me entryway a thorough going over. #notaeuphemism And I’ve put a new rug down. #alsonotaeuphemism I think I might have a quick cool shower before I PRESS ON. #also…nevermind.

Oh my lord it’s humid did I mention it’s humid?!

I’ve put my indoor crocs on so you know I mean business.

I’m so so sorry to hear this. Wishing you the solace of love from family and friends. 40 years is a long long time and a lifetime of memories. x

You could’ve taken one after. It didn’t last that long, surely.

*at all, obvs

Heading out to celebrate a pal’s birthday with axe-throwing. When did that become a thing? I’m not steampunk enough*!

I wouldn’t presume to compare to the loss of a spouse, but I felt the same when each of my parents died. There was nothing to be done so why let it drag on. Still, I’m so sorry.

I’m so glad she’s in palliative care and feeling peaceful. It’s awful this is happening and I’m so sorry but so glad she’s able to go gently.

Such beautiful eyes.
