I just watched the last episode of Jeopardy with Alex Trebek, and I’m not ready.
I’m staying at my dad’s house for two nights to help him out after he had a pacemaker installed.
My dad likes to listen to Fox News at top volume.
My Tiny Complaint is that I forgot to pack my earplugs.
Yuck. My mother-in-law will watch it just so she can yell at the TV (she thinks her anger is her superpower). Bummer on the lack of earplugs!
I just watched season 16 of grey’s anatomy
Which one is that? I rewatch grey’s in times of stress.
It’s the latest one on Netflix. It upset me
Having panic attacks all night, interspersed with dozing off and having bizarre dreams about friendly Daleks who are girls and wear bouffant wigs, and fighting aliens in a hotel by throwing inflatable Batman figures at them, totally sucks.
I apparently now can only sleep in front of the TV?
When I’m too stressed I can only sleep with tv or movies. I just lean into it. Sleep scientists don’t know enough to tell us not to. My favourite is documentaries, but any well watched movie goes well.
GBBO was integral to my pregnancy insomnia care. It was literally the only way I could sleep on more than one occasion.
I also recommend podcasts for sleep background noise
Sports (especially football) worked well for me - because I don’t care about the outcome, I understand everything, but it is boring and easy to ignore.
I actually just saw an ad come across my feed for wireless sleep headphones in a headband - I am actually kind of tempted as I’m pretty sure the cats wouldn’t chew on that or swat at it in the middle of the night. They loooooooove headphones and earbuds, Boyfriend has had to replace a number of them.
I got a wireless headphones sleep mask for Christmas and unfortunately it was a bit too big for me. The concept held though!
My kid got something like this https://www.amazon.ca/WIOR-Headphones-Bluetooth-Headband-Traveling/dp/B08JGKN9DZ/ref=mp_s_a_1_12?dchild=1&keywords=headband+headphones&qid=1610227058&sprefix=headband+head&sr=8-12
It fits his medium child sized head and works pretty well. He pulls it down over his eyes to sleep or wears it like a headband for headphones.
I want to eat a cake but I don’t want to make a cake.
I kind of want to make creme brûlée but I don’t have any cream.
Microwave mug cake!
I really needed to meal prep for the week, do laundry and sweep/tidy my house. Instead I spent two hours deep cleaning my freezer, under my bed, and other places that I don’t see and/or don’t matter. Why does this happen???
They’re never as good as I hope they’ll be. Smitten Kitchen has a chocolate lava cake that really only takes 20 minutes, so it’s not even that much more work that a mug cake, I just don’t want to stand up not under a blanket that long.
Inadequate communication with S/O led to worry, frustration, and disappointment. Mood is trashed.
every once in a while I buy the frozen peaches, and then I remember why I don’t buy frozen peaches
why do they use such flavourless hard things? The whole point of IQF is that they don’t need to worry so much about transportation and they can pick & process at full ripeness. If they can manage mango and raspberries, why can’t they manage peach?
