Writing again.

There must be some scientific explanation why I can complete Good Sudoku+ every day for 300 and something days, keeping the streak alive, but then forget to play one day as I approach the 365 day mark.

It’s happened three times. Three!

It wasn’t even like I was crazy busy yesterday.

24 hours later and the site ripping off BTTR has been removed. Nice and efficient complaint process. Happy days.

A fun start to the day: doing my weekly reporting for BTTR and discovered a site that has ripped off my entire site - all 1500 articles. It’s a complete copy - even includes my analytics tracking.

Jerks.

Takedown notices sent. I wonder how long it will take?

Normally when I watch a World Cup match that doesn’t include Australia, I don’t pick a side. I just enjoy watching the football.

But I enjoyed cheering on Belgium to beat the USA today. It was a thoroughly deserved victory. ⚽️

Managed to crawl out of bed at 4 to watch the Socceroos this morning. Obviously disappointed to get kicked out of the World Cup today, but it has been great to see the team grow. There’s so much potential - they just need to hunt the back of the net more aggressively. ⚽️

My daughter has been playing through the Final Fantasy VII remakes. She loves them.

I’ve been dying for her to get to the date with Aerith at the Gold Saucer in Rebirth.

Today she got to that scene, but she went out with Tifa instead! I was so disappointed for her.

Completely offsetting the disappointment of the Socceroos loss this morning was the discovery that our awful neighbours are moving. I smile every time I think about it.

Obviously disappointed by the Socceroos loss to the USA this morning. I really wish our performance wasn’t a tale of two halves though - for some reason this squad so often comes out meek in the first half, then fires up in the second. ⚽️

I cannot understand why anyone would willingly choose to use the Divi editor in Wordpress. It’s such a convoluted mess of a user interface. Makes doing even the simplest thing three steps harder than it should be.

Finished reading Mistborn Wax & Wayne The Complete Series by Brandon Sanderson last night. Really enjoyed it, though I’m still not 100% certain with what is happening with the greater Cosmere lore after that last book. Was a sudden, massive expansion I wasn’t really ready for. 📚

Watching the Socceroos beat Turkey today was maybe a little too stressful for my liking. But it was so good to watch a solid strategy bear fruit.

Also Irankunda is just fantastic to watch. His goal was great, but the touch to get past two defenders? Amazing. ⚽️

(Finally) finished watching all of Modern Family last night. The last few seasons were a real struggle, to be honest. 📺

I’ve been trying to lose a bit of weight the past couple of months, so I’ve been limiting my bread intake.

But this flatbread, cooked in the pizza oven, was so bloody good.
