Ladu opposites phone alert sound is a duck quacking. It’s super loud.

Man behind just rang his daughter making jokes about the fact that someone has apparently just jumped into the tyne. Grim.

Ive got another two minutes left. Fingers crossed.

I’ve been procrastinating all day. Went downtown for lunch and to collect some posters.

Going to fire on some records and get typing.

Tacos. Only because I fancied them last night but couldn’t be arsed

Not much, really. It’s complicated by the lactose intolerance (is the bum wee because someone snuck cream into my dinner?), and anxiety stuff that manifests as stomach cramps (is the bum wee because I have to travel to an unfamiliar situation?)

I’ve identified a few foods that can set me off into the bum wee - constipation - bum wee cycle (e.g. too many red peppers) and try to avoid those. Also try to avoid taking medication for either end of the spectrum unless I absolutely have to (e.g. I’m in full bum wee mode and I’ve got to attend a hearing, which is NOT A HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE. Fun day.) because it can put me back in the cycle.

That’s a really long-winded way of saying “nah”, isn’t it.

How’s the weather up there Geebers? Hope the bus isn’t too hot and that you’re suitably hydrated if it’s a scorcher.

My wife is participating in the filming of Lorraine Kelly’s new Zumba DVD tonight so I’m going for an extra long cycle and will then eat Basa and drink wine.

Any film recommendations? Didn’t watch Cafe Society the other day so will probs watch that.

Just been down the brick lane bookshop to pick up some poetry I’ve had my eye on for a while, really cheap little Emily Dickinson anthology - I love those little penguin classic books they’re doing, and an early unreleased Richard Brautigan one <3
Going to Victoria park in a bit but my flatmates just realised he told a friend of his she could stay here when she visits from Paris, and turns out that is tonight, so we have to clean everything bd

Haha, yep.

The anxiety/stress stuff sets me off too but I haven’t really figured out what food gives me the bum wee or the blockage. The wind I have is fully horrendous too!

I also don’t like medication for this stuff either but I can’t stand not pooing. I’d much rather have bum wee than no poop. Not pooping for well over a week caused me so much pain!

Gonna have to buy the DVD to check on her fidelity now :disappointed:

all you need to do is spend too long with it and it gets easier to use. Enjoy your trip.

and HBPM!

Good old death farts. Usually the first indication that something’s about to go seriously awry for me.

I’d rather be constipated than the opposite just for pragmatic reasons, really, but it really is just the lesser of two evils. Great stuff.
