UPDATE: had a short trip to A&E - steri-strips, glue, and waterproof dressing. Gash was quite deep (incredible amount of blood all over the kitchen floor for the cut itself). I’ve got a concussion & whiplash as well. My whole body took a hit. Told to “do nothing for two days”. I’ll have a scar.

There’s something so satisfying about a bowl of 0% fat Greek yoghurt with walnuts and honey. And it’s guilt-free, mostly.

I can highly recommend sliced orange segments, 0% fat Greek yoghurt, chopped walnuts, and Greek ‘forest’ honey. A fresh and clean dessert.

Urgh, the new students next door are horrible. So loud that I can hear them word for word. I guess I can say this because I live the Cambridge cliché, but they are not one of us.

Well, I’m in Rhodes. Same hotel as last year. This time they’ve labelled all the food with allergy advice. Every single dessert has gluten and nuts in them. Apart from the bananas and pineapple chunks. I had a salad and a banana. I’m now tired and grumpy.

There are loads of 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 flags strung up on lampposts in Milton Keynes, where my parents live. Particularly gammony in Newport Pagnell. I’ve not seen any up in Cambridge.

Lovely hairdresser came to the house. He’s really understanding about my head-touching phobia since ECT-gate. And also my stupid costochondritis makes it difficult to move about.

Got to be gutting to lose two slams in a row. Sabalenka was super, particularly in the tie-break. Anisimova showed up today and did not tank in a double bagel. It was much closer than Wimbledon.

I love my friends, but dear god - stop with all the doorstep first day of school photos. I genuinely care nothing for your children. I’m sure they’re all lovely, but ENOUGH.

So glad I was allowed to go home early. Things were still bonkers, but I just cut myself out of the drama and said goodbye. I cannot abide incompetence.

Such a stressful day at work. Supposed to have left at 9pm. Didn’t leave until nearly 11pm due to various very complicated issues. Got to work at 12.15 and left at 22.55. It was one hell of a shift.

I’ve got DASH training tomorrow (Domestic Abuse Stalking and Honour Based Violence). Mum is driving me up to Huntingdon. It’s important that I do it, but I’m cross that this is yet another thing I’m doing on a non-working day.

My fuzzy buddy was brilliant at the V.E.T. He likes a fuss and purred and rolled around. He’s still a little heavy, but has not gained any weight since last year (actually he’s a little less, but he still needs to shift a bit).

'Insufficiently statistically signifiant for a joke'
"In your otherwise beautiful poem “The Vision of Sin” there is a verse which reads – “Every moment dies a man, Every moment one is born.” It must be manifest that if this were true, the population of the world would be at a standstill. In truth, the rate of birth is slightly in excess of that of death.

I would suggest that in the next edition of your poem you have it read – “Every moment dies a man, Every moment 1 1/16 is born.”

The actual figure is so long I cannot get it onto a line, but I believe the figure 1 1/16 will be sufficiently accurate for poetry.

I am, Sir, yours, etc.,

Charles Babbage"

My HomePod is listening in to The Lost Boys. During a particularly dramatic scene Siri pops us and says “uh huh, I’m glad to hear that”. I can only conclude that she is a creature of the night.

MSc is good to go. Start in Sept with the OU. It will confer BPS registration/conversion. Step one on my journey to becoming a clinical psychologist. It’ll be a long road but I’m motivated.

Who do I know with access to a car and time on their hands? Can you get to the Cotswolds for a bit of casual mischief? To ruin JD Vance’s holiday, ideally.

‘He has trouble completing a thought’: bizarre public appearances again cast doubt on Trump’s mental acuity
Joe Biden was hounded for his age-related gaffes, but Trump’s increasingly strange behavior has largely been ignored

Edit: I genuinely have no idea why anyone would turn to God. It disappoints me that more young people are becoming religious. Meaning is gained through life and experience. I don’t fret a single moment thinking about a deity.

I’d forgotten how good the lineup for Ozzfest 2001 (MK Bowl) was. Me and my best friend had a great day. Alcohol-free, but doughnut heavy.

Hotel room has AC, but sorry…here are two fans because the AC doesn’t work. Fans that move warm air around the room. Curtains and window open, which is not optimal for sleep. I need quiet and darkness.

Statement from PM Starmer just now on Gaza

“The suffering and starvation unfolding in Gaza is unspeakable and indefensible. While the situation has been grave for some time, it has reached new depths and continues to worsen. We are witnessing a humanitarian catastrophe.

 

“I will hold an emergency call with E3 partners tomorrow, where we will discuss what we can do urgently to stop the killing and get people the food they desperately need while pulling together all the steps necessary to build a lasting peace. We all agree on the pressing need for Israel to change course and allow the aid that is desperately needed to enter Gaza without delay.

 

“It is hard to see a hopeful future in such dark times. But I must reiterate my call for all sides to engage in good faith, and at pace, to bring about an immediate ceasefire and for Hamas to unconditionally release all hostages. We strongly support the efforts of the US, Qatar and Egypt to secure this.

 

“We are clear that statehood is the inalienable right of the Palestinian people. A ceasefire will put us on a path to the recognition of a Palestinian state and a two-state solution which guarantees peace and security for Palestinians and Israelis

Banana 🍌, cranberry, and matcha powder smoothie. Dash of oat milk and spoon of Activia gut health yogurt. This time I got the right amount of 🍵 powder so that it added depth not bitterness.

Guys, I’m all peer supported out. I’m exhausted. It was one thing after another today (peer after peer) and there really wasn’t a point where I could slink off to have a break. Got home later than usual because I had a tonne of notes to write. Maybe I didn’t prioritise well enough?

I’m unsure as to whether I enjoyed my matcha, banana, and blueberry smoothie. I added oat milk to loosen it up a bit. It’s healthy and vegan. I might have to learn to love matcha. Could be good in a carrot cake.

Going to make myself a matcha, banana, and blueberry smoothie. Recipe calls for oat milk and gluten free oats, but I’m going to add just the oat milk. I just want of fresh drink.

Despite my conviction that I have loads of grey now, the clipper shavings for my hair cut didn’t show much at all. Still very dark brown with only flecks of grey.
