Watched Fried Green Tomatoes. What a sweet and very 90s movie. I felt all the warm and tinglies. Jessica Tandy was very lovely but her accent was all over the place which was distracting...

Saw Deadpool. My review: Lots of sharp self aware humour, and perfectly ridiculous high energy action sequences. Silly plot but it that’s all it needed to be. Had a good laugh.

Woot! Free cast iron griddle. Not the same colour as my other stuff, but who cares about that.

So, for the last week or two, my zygomatic bone (the corner of my eye socket furthest from my nose) has been hurting. When I blink or touch it, it hurts a lot. There's no bruising though, or any real swelling. But it's painful and sore.

I'm low key stressed it's something serious, but it could also be a small fracture from when Mickey pounced on my head. Could be nothing. I should go to the doctor, will have to make an appointment this week.

Got a tuning fork? One lecturer told me an old timey approach to diagnose broken bones was to hold a tuning fork to it and see if the broken bits vibrate causing pain.

I have a local magpie that learner to sing last spring and now random sings at all hours of the night. It's lovely
