I’m not sure why but when I listen to this version of this track, I see us slow dancing in the kitchen. Bottle of wine finished, cheese and cracker remnants on the counter, my head on your shoulder. You singing overly cheerily while I laugh.
Heck, maybe it’s already happening to another version of us right now eh?
Goodmorning my mouser. It’s rolling through 9pm here. I had a brief lap or two around the block after we said goodnight, caught up with mom. She filled me in on the latest doggo antics, and I told her about the pup from the film we watched tonight.
Turns out he’s an Australian Kelpie! A close cousin of the Australian cattle dog, super intense breed but incredibly smart, they love to work. I bet that doggo loves doing all the complex things on steps, jump here, step there, pull rope, Bark! Haha what a job, I’d love to be a handler/trainer for a movie star doggo, Im sure it’s a high stress situation but damn what a bond they must have.
Anyway, I came back in and had some ravioli for dinner, popped on a podcast and finished another number in my Totoro painting. After I didn’t feel too hot, well, actually I felt hot, specifically in the face, and I checked the packaging. Apparently these plain cheese ravioli loaded with preservatives and maltodextrin. WHY. Tell me why frozen pasta with ricotta cheese needs that garbage in it.
It’s such a shame what our government allows in our food. Its even worse that it’s not even discussed as an issue. Either you’re wealthy enough to afford the stuff that’s not loaded with chemicals or oh well!
Sure it’s on me for not reading the label but damn, I never thought in a million years you’d need an artificial sweetener in a damn ravioli.
Anyway, rant over, I drank a bunch of water and I’m feeling better now. Its such an easily identifiable feeling that I knew I had to check the label as soon as I realized something was off, maybe I have a low grade allergy or intolerance, or maybe its got no business in the human body period.
Must remember I have bulgur wheat instead for manana.
Popped downstairs to watch a little Netflix with brother that made me giggle, a bunch of the standup comedians we like in a cabin in the woods, broken up into different episodes. Something about that kinda commune-like living, people you relate to, who get it, good food, drink, smoke and nature. Somehow we always go back to that as human, I think there’s something in it dont you?
Anyway, I finalized that little VO job on that new platform this evening as well. They sent over the script and it’s actually an explainer about how to use the platform itself. Kinda feels nice to have ya first client from the team, also probably means the traffic is kinda slow, but hey, an extra bit of fund age to add to the monthly payment cycle if ya get my drift. Or maybe we’ll just call our next wine night/new month celebration sorted.
Either way, I’m thankful.
It’s time for me to do a little reading, a little journaling, put on some chill music and make my way to dreamland. I love you to bits my mousey. I hope you have a great day.
<3 Your Dot.
good morning love!
this totally set me up for the day. i can't even tell you, the first paragraph i was just smiling hard, like joker style hard, you totally nailed it, created this smoky visual for me. i think maybe we are just projecting our monday/tuesday coming ha! :)
australian cattle dog huh? never heard of that name before, wild -- i really enjoyed that film, it had a great pace, great story, love anything that's like end of the world mission across land that for once does not have zombies in it :)
you/mum would be so awesome at looking after doggos on set are you kidding me and yes, what a job right, making sure they are preened and look cute on screen, following instructions, so cool, i bet that dog is definately an active work dog you can tell, he was on point all the time.
as for the food part of your post, i totally get that, i've been more focused on what i consume and how it makes me act/react in the last three months, especially with all the listeria and stuff happening your side, it really makes you take into consideration when 'infrastructure' is running at less than perfect the quality slides, plus to keep things longer, even frozen, they put all that shit in it -- taking it to the basics, from places and supplies you trust. that's where it's at.
glad that you've had so much time with bro this time back, even thou this has been longer than normal i think these things happen for a reason, i mean we could'nt have predicted the pandemic in the middle but still, we had banged on about it for SO LONG that until shelves were clear yada yada and then boom, all the flour was gone this side becuase people WERE MAKING CAKES to deal with it.
oh shit the job actually came through did it? i just chalked that up to the usual spam city crew but i'm glad that worked out and you got some payment for it, small wins are still wins. i don't know how much you charged for that but it feels good to get paid straight away with digital right?
truly believe we are gonna see a whole new substructure of what and when we get paid for, from audience to location, to in-time work, to knowledge and history, imagine millions of zoom groups all around the world and they have the ability to bring someone in, pay them with crypto for an opinion and then you are on your way, all done so you can carry on with your day -- that's surely coming.
anyways, this is my post for today, gotta get some analog sprinting done, i'll try and message but i think i'm gonna be locked in today and head down on stuff! i'll connect in our usual whays! :)
Have a great meerkat wednesday love,
Mwah

Aussie Kelpie?!?? Yes! Also, hi!
