I feel increasingly like my government has abandoned me and every other ordinary citizen in favour of keeping the cash flow up. Damnit.

I have to go out and acquire a calendar so I can keep track of nonsense. Including school hols. And, let's be honest, decorate the kitchen a little bit. Since I'm a cheap-ass, I buy them after New Years', when they're on sale.

Experts are saying the symptoms of Omicron are "milder" but that's no true guide to how bad it is. I'm calling it now. Thousands of leaders are going to dismiss the potential threat of Omicron and then learn later on in the year that Long
