Looking them up now
Looking them up now
I used to complain about how much my feet hurt but after the pain I've had the past couple of months that was nothing.
It also doesn't help that it puts me in a grouchy mood which isn't great when your job is customer service.
I need to get new shoes as (quoting my podiatrist) mine "are rubbish"
Work are currently letting me wear regular sneakers instead of my safety shoes (provided I stay on the shop floor and away from heavy things)
Any suggestions for shoes for someone who does 20,000+ steps per day?
My right arm with tattoos including my newest tattoo which is of Gengar - a purple Pokemon with red eyes. This one looks mischievous
Have made plans for things I want to attend this month - a packed calendar but fun!
I also got another tattoo on Friday, this cute lil Gengar!
The hate part of my love/hate relationship with summer has increased with this being the first summer of perimenopause.
@getcaughtliving.bsky.social Happy Birthday you wonderful human. Love you loads and hope we can catch up in person sometime soon!
Used a cumin, chilli and lime marinade (one of The Lucky Taco ones)
Three tacos on a plate. On the tacos is slaw, shredded beef brisket and guacamole. There is a quarter wedge of lime in the middle on the plate.
Marinated some beef brisket overnight then put it in the slow cooker this morning before I left for work.
Shredded it, mashed up an avocado with some lime & hot sauce and dumped a bag of slaw into a bowl.
Then heated tortillas in the pan.
Taco Tuesday
Much love ❤️
I’m going to restock all the shirts that have run out this week, folks have been asking! I’m back in the studio from tomorrow, it’s the slow period, and I just found out I most likely have a disc bulge which is going to make work and life really hard. Sales appreciated x
The one in Central Auckland closed a year or so ago. I would miss going into the one by work even though I don't buy games from them as often as I used to.
Urgh I would melt
I've taken my work shoes home with me to show at my appointment because I don't think they're doing my feet any favours. We have to wear steel toe boots/shoes for work, I wear the sneakers version but they tend to wear out really quickly.
And why can't we caterpult them to the sun
Got sent home from work early and to take the day off tomorrow because my foot pain had me wincing and limping which had customers asking if I was okay.
I should probably think of what to tell the podiatrist tomorrow that isn't just "my foot is fucked up"
Why are people?!
I'd get behind this endeavour!
Delicious!
Oh fuck I am so sorry.
Messaged my best friend before with this
"It seems fitting that I end 2025 feeling exhausted, in pain and with minor annoyance hahaha"
Yay pukapuka!
Reading has definitely been one of the things that has kept me from losing my shit (well more than I already did) this year. Did you have any favourite/s from what you read in 2025?
Happy to help you acquire CDs, there's a bunch of opshops I frequent that have a decent selection plus I can pop into Real Groovy more frequently if I have a reason to.
Sleep well!
It made me very happy
My friend's annual zine reviewing books and other stuff they enjoyed arrived in the mail today complete with a badge they made with a delightful festive pun.
I think it is from overuse rather than a specific injury (though it is the foot that was hurt last year when I got hit by a car and maybe it just didn't heal right)
Booked an appointment to get my foot checked out next week because the pain is gone from annoyance to this is making me miserable and grumpy and given I have to be around people all the time at work me being all grouchy and complaining isn't good.
I think the thing I most want to celebrate is that I made it through the year as tough as it was at times.
This week's achievement.. I was quite happy with the ham I cooked for Christmas Day (which had a gochujang and honey glaze)
Back at work today after three days off and when I got home I ended up napping for two & a half hours.
I should probably book some proper time off sooner rather than later.

This opened a bit ago but I missed it! The Auckland Queer Writers Anthology will be launching as part of Pride Month on the 28th of February at Studio One Toi Tū!
