Don't look the price of lettuce, broccoli or Bitcoin at the moment because they'll only make you sad. Save your tissues and don't forget your free flu shot. Can we fast forward to Friday already? I know it's a shortened working week but I'm pining for the weekend already.
LATE TO THE STAKING
So it was only earlier this year did I discover Cryptocurrency staking. Where
holding certain coins and then putting these coins up to do something (still
not clear on what exactly but that's not why I got into it) you get...more
coins! (Which then get added to the pile to generate...yep, you guessed it,
more coins!)
So it's like bank account interest but accrued daily and for
a couple of coin choices, it's been making me better returns across each month
than my savings accounts ever could.

However while 2022 has been full of wonderful highlights, it's also had it's fair share of crotch punches and one of them is the price of Bitcoin crashing harder than a drunk learner driver on a racetrack. The world markets are having ugly days, cost of everything is rediculous, Bitcoin has been sliding down because of it. And because Bitcoin seems to be the lynch pin for crypto, if it has a bad day then all the coins are soon to follow. Which means my small staking hills are now worth even less. Yes they're still generating more coins as they're expected to but until the price of said coins rise again, they're not actually worth that much.
I now I heralded the coming of 2022 as a break from Crypto drop kicking the world in the knees but can we roll it off the table now? I'm more than ready to see what 2023 or even 2024 can bring in terms of some good news for the world.
THANKS FOR COMING IN
I've never had a Dr's appointment that's been on time ever, until now. I've
never spent more time looking for a mask to enter the Dr's surgery than I
spent in the actual consult rooms, until today. And I certainly expected to
wait and wait and wait around some more given the fact that I was there for my
free flu vaccine. (Free this month, thanks NSW govt!)
But no, I checked
in and sat down for all of 60 seconds before I was called in, the lovely Dr
asked if I was feeling okay (just tired, nothing out of the ordinary there),
did the jab and waltzed out not feeling a thing. In fact I reckon I spent more
time on the stairs getting up to level 3 of the Garden's Medical Centre than I
did getting the shot itself.
If only everything else in my life was run and done that fast. Like 6am-7am for example.
RUBBER BAND
No not the Bowie song, I'm talking a rubber band effect on the radio show today. Where the first hour felt like the rubber band was stretching to great lengths and slowly down dramatically because of it and then hour two was normal and the third one was the equivalent of the taunt band being released and snapping back with everything happening at once.
I guess this is another solo show at play because usually with two people the first hours zooms by in a blur and you're wondering how to fill the other two. I felt like if I walked outside the studio, I'd find Dr Strange playing with his time device before getting to 7am and deciding to give it up and go for coffee again.
Just cut it out Stephen, it's getting annoying.
Lu might be back tomorrow, we're not sure.NO TISSUES IN THIS TOWN
Remember when Rats were in short supply along with toilet paper? Well we're getting back to those 'Sorry, you'll have to check another store' kind of days once more (seriously 2022, take a long hard look at yourself!) because according to reports we're running out of...Kleenex. Well tissues of all sorts.
Because the flu is back with a vengeance after a two year vacation and our noses are exploding because of it. And that also means a great demand on those things that go hand in hand with having a punch on with influenza like cold and flu tablets and medicated wipes while we all try and recover.
Not avocados though, apparently. Unlike pricey broccoli and hideously expensive lettuce, we've got plenty of cheap giant avocados available.
Ahh if only guacamole or smashed avo on toast was a bona fide flu fighter.. one could only hope.
Arms throbbing slightly, still tired.
Can I has weekend now?
