The adventures of Almigo

 Lu's back, the egg Rollie returns and the question is raised, how quickly can I scarf down a scone?

Lu's still sick, I'm trying not to drown the place in groans thanks to some really bad dad jokes and one in twenty Australians love a good dragon..

  My latest book is go!

Lu's sick, I'm dreaming of the end of the world and a spelling mistake has pushed my latest writing effort back a couple of days..

Welp. It's always the way isn't it? You finish your work on a Friday, pumped for the weekend, only to find that when you get back into your car the battery decides it doesn't want to work anymore..

 Just a singlet, pair of jocks and a single sock do not a work outfit make..

The temps are in the 40's, coffees cheap and both breakfast and dinner are served late. Well that's what Lu experienced on her recent trip across Italy. Closer to home it's cold, coffee's pricey and I'm eating breakfast before the sun rises.  Also when did Book Week really take off because I'm kind of annoyed I missed it in Primary School.

Today's workout involved dumbbell presses and barbell step ups. Today's post workout feed (and lunch) was a truly delicious home made chicken pesto pasta. I'm at 47% with my editing and I learnt today to read everything before you decide to relay it on air..

So it turns out I'm not the only coach having a rough year in 2022 and over the weekend I tried something again that I haven't given a go to...since 1996. Amazingly it went okay!

I'm at 14% with editing, 12% peckish right now and have about 22% battery life. Not on my phone, I'm talking my own energy levels. It's been a busy week and I'm a touch tired now but so happy it's Friday...

Look, I really should be editing right now. My latest book Last Thief Standing is in the first draft finished stage and as much as I'd like to leave it on my Google Drive and come back in a couple of days to find it's magically edited itself, we all know that's not going to happen. But silly me installed Cyberpunk 2077 recently and if you've played that game, you'll know how horribly addictive and how much of a true time sink it really is.  So that's distracting enough. And then there's this 'work' thing (I don't think it's really going to take off personally) that also seems to want some of my time, especially in the waking hours. But hey, at least today I got to chat about human looking robots and boxing in Wales so that was a bonus!

Today we find out the world's low on low on gaviscon, scomo's portfolio list is climbing by the day and I managed not to look at my alarm at all overnight, even though I woke up quite a few times ready to do just that.

Dear former Australian Prime Minster Scott Morrison, On behalf of all breakfast announcers like myself across the country, thanks so much for adding yourself to various portfolios while you were Prime Minister. While it's doubtful I'll understand the full ramifications of this move (I'm not great with politics, let's be honest) it did give us all plenty to talk about this morning with the ongoing investigation so thank you. Regards -Almigo

No it's not Shady, so no need to tell a friend. But after three weeks of downtime, I'm back on the airwaves and amazingly still remember what I'm doing (and which buttons do which), which helps a lot when you're manning the show by yourself. 

It's been a while since I had an offer to become InstaFamous. Or more closer to the point, gain thousands of additional followers by taking up a great offer through my email. Stefan from WeGrow tried a couple of times (and got some amusing replies in response) but now Brenda has decided that she can FIX my Instagram. And here I was, blissfully unaware it was broken...

Strangely for someone terrible at sport, there's been quite a few posts about it the year on Almigo's Adventures. So much so that I've decided to continue on my hapless coaching saga on another page, dedicated to the wonderful world of armchair coaching.  Keen to read up on me making some of the worst sporting decisions in AFL Football, Soccer and now the huge and confusing world of Major League Baseball? I've got a seat by the sidelines just for you!
