What does your day look like?

After the great Canberra hailstorm of 2020, this was a little triggering :) All perfectly harmless small hail of course, way too cold for big hail - didn’t stop me hurling myself out the front door to throw blankets over the expensive car first!

Did you get some snow too?

I happened to be travelling through Daylesford when it snowed a little. It melted as soon as it hit the ground though.

Yeah Mum in the forest between Guildford and Mt Franklin reported some just melted snow today too.

We don’t get snow in Hobart, but it looks like it came down to about 6-800 metres up on the hill.
 
Yesterday was the second burn pile day. Would have liked to put these through the chipper, but they were all afflicted with some weird disease that only affected those wattles, so sent it to the fiery pits of hell.

I hadn't had a tick in decades...and now I haven't had a tick in minutes.


Was experiencing a "why the fuck does my love handle feel like a mozzie has bitten me?" Moment.

It is going to be a bad season. We have already removed some from the cats and had a few wandering around no doubt brought in by the cats. First time for many years. I hate the things. Had too many over the years.
I was going to say vibration for shear-thinning, but didn't want to sound too sciency on a Sunday morning.. :p
It would be possible to make a shock absorber fluid using tomato ketchup and corn flour/water. That way it would easily flow regardless of shear rate and give you that completely worn out fucked shock absorber sensation with a brand new shock!

I spent a lot of time hiking camping and fishing as kid and never had many. We did however loose one of the coolest dogs ever known to a cattle tick when I was in primary school. That was very sad.
 
Well fuck me! I had one of those days where time just slips through your hand and nothing is left to show for it. But I did hit a short session in the local dirt lumps and some trails this afternoon. Cased one of my favourite jumps pretty hard which meant I didn't fly over the following gap of death today. Anyway I'm at home here doing a shit on my laptop (which I use about 6 times a year) wondering 3 things...why the fuck is the tick bite from yesterday itchy again? Why is my neck stiff? Why is my neck itchy?

A little while later I'm washing my hands and the bite from yesterday is red, which it hadn't been all day! My neck is red as fuck, like it's sunburnt twice over! And...wait a minute...what's that little black dot where I don't normally have a mole? Another fucking tick!!!
