Confessional Friday:
Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. It has been many years since my last confession.
I almost always answer the phone on the toilet.

Confessional Friday:

hope you know if I sit down in a stall next to you I'm not putting down the firemans blanket and doing my absolute best to make sure your conversation partner hears the "kasploosh" sound.
I was unaware of the fireman blanket technique.
FIREMANS BLANKET
😂😂😂😂😂
As in if it rings while you are on the toilet you will answer, or when it rings you usually head to the toilet to answer it there?
Haha nice.😂
Well I mean it's right there so you may as well answer it if it rings.
convenient
Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. I have never ever in my life stepped foot in a church, let alone confess.
I confess that I make fun of my cat for having an empty nut sack.
I shall say a prayer for you and your feline. Seriously though, some churches are absolutely gorgeous inside. Check it out sometime.
Ya seriously. So much money and time and artistry went into some of those things, they can be absolutely incredible
Belief is not a requirement for aesthetic appreciation. And thank fuck it's not
Unreasonably annoyed at an old boss who went out of her way to criticise me for ordering Who Gives A Crap toilet paper for the office because I "didn't understand how women's bodies work" and that "women need soft TP". Mind you this was when WGAC was brand new and before the order had even arrived, and we were a fellow Melbourne startup so I thought pretty good karma at least to support their brand.
Caught her several years later on social media saying how she has always loved WGAC. No babes. You have not.
Anyway, I think of this anecdote whenever I refill my toilet roll. Haha.
stir the pot. Call her out! "Oh really? Guess you dont remember the time you went off on my cause you claimed it wasnt soft?"
It's true women do love a soft tp but anything is better than nothing so fuck her.
5/10. This is the quiz I don't care about - pop culture. Sundays quiz is where it's at
8/10 today.
Might be my best ever.
5/10. Is that technically a pass mark?
8/10 not great not terrible haha
3/10
I have brought dishonour to my bloodline.
my best yet, 2/10
2/10, a dismal result even for me.
I think I'm going to ignore this and celebrate my 93% final grade on my last subject instead.
9/10. I don't know who Jeremy Strong is 🤷♀️
I stuffed that one up as well.
I don't think there is any shame in not getting that one. However not getting the name of the cyclone you've been watching news stories about all morning, I have absolutely no excuse for that one. My brain just does not work right when trivia or names are involved, putting them both together obviously short circuited something.
I've been keeping up with things recently so that helps and I'm aldo exposed to sporting news more than average so that always helps!
Good actor. One of the main characters in Succession and plays a decent villain in The Gentlemen
Oh right. I haven't seen either of those shows.
The Gentlemen show is okay, he was in the movie which was the great. Watch it.
I'm pissed and grumpy now, they used the space and didn't clean anything up so I've just spent the last 10-15 mins resetting the space.
I really should have bought a bottle of wine yesterday while I was at Aldi, could have used it to unwind tonight.
Well at least I have snakes and chippies.
Rawr!!
Pour the snakes into the chips and enjoy a nice bag of chakes.
Don't do this with real snakes of course. Unless you're into that kind of thing I guess.
Interesting combination. I'll look into it but no promises.
tinyest now knows "Mine". You'd be surprised by the amount of things that are now suddenly his.
Is he a cat?
😂
The kid had a sample of what gastro is like last night. Yep both ends, simultaneously. Gave her a little shock it did.
She'll learn to love hydralyte over the next few days. All the best to her. It's not fun.
She's a little weak but otherwise ok.
Bucket by the toilet when gastro comes knocking. Better to be safe than sorry. And I'd rather clean vomit out of a bucket than the other stuff outta pants or off the floor.
Apparently what happened was she lent over to turn the taps on the bath and up it rose and out so she squatted down and it came out the other end.
I heard a weak "mummy". I go in, see what's happening, hold her hair back. She says "do you think it was the pasta I had at school? And I've shat on your mat". I reply "yes and dear god".
The child then had a shower with undies on and one soiled bath mat.
I explained what to do next time. Run to the toilet with the bucket.
That's quite a complex problem, I don't think I could accomplish getting to the toilet in that state, my sympathy for your daughter, hope the rest of your family and yourself will be ok.
Thanks. I've disinfected all surfaces. Nothing's gonna stop my Friday night drinks.
Well unless all your drinks come back up again.
I hope not.
