I’m so tired and cranky these days. Everything is just a hassle

I look at some children, then I look at their parents and I think to myself you poor bastards you never had a chance.

Anti - Gravity thread :

It's so nice working for a normal company. Internal is such a better deal.

Goodnight everyone ❤️

I took about 5 years worth of e-waste to the tip. And then bought myself a cherry pie to celebrate a tiny bit of adulting.

I'm coming to a very sobering realisation that my mind really isn't as capable as it was five years ago, it's taking a lot more effort to understand academic journal articles and new concepts than it used to. I spend so much energy on maintenance tasks and quelling anxiety, that there isn't much left for novel/challenging thinking outside of a conversational context

shakes fist at google sheets

A packet of twisties is forthcoming to my stomach. A mighty fine appetiser lol

Study day, discovered I've filled most of my assessments as we've been going. I'd forgotten I'd done that. So my homework is already done. Just watching some YT vids of vets showing safe practices to handle various animals, and animal behaviour.

Every day I am grateful to be doing this for myself.

Hooray survived the 8 day outta date cheese kransky from last night. Flying a bit close to the sun. It did burn the roof of my mouth though but it was delicious so only a small price to pay.

I really want a hot dog for some reason. Not even a nice one. I just want whatever low tier fake processed rejected scrap meat cylinder things they have at Wendy's

Okay so I think it was someone in here who recommended Potato Utopia chips and I've diligently waited and they're almost at half price this week... time to try it out tomorrow night I reckon.

Ready to start my day.

Flat clean. Now to make a mess

The magpies have started their pre-breakfast warbles.

It's hump day. The weekend seems so far away.

Another day another data compromise. This time it’s the Shebah ride share. At this point any business using name address and dob to verify a person is not good enough security.

I use random passwords for everything so I’m not worried about the password getting out.

Nothing but keyboard clicks and a loudly ticking clock. This office is so depressing.

such a beautiful day, seems a shame to stay inside so I'll go for a walk in the park. :)

Anyone here been to Basement Comedy Club? I've got tickets for there tomorrow night, but do they pack people in like sardines?

I think I accept that I'm too worried to go - I'm flying to NZ on Sunday and am doing loads of limit my chances of becoming sick before this holiday. So... does anyone want 2 x tickets to Andrew Hamilton (from YeahMad) tomorrow night?

Tucking myself into bed to watch Gladiator. I haven’t seen this in years

Muuum...can I have a sick note? I don't wanna ...

I had a dream last night that I got lost whilst driving, and didn't brake hard enough at a red light. Went through the light and there was a beep that sounded like an e-tag.

Then I had a dream about being surrounded by grapefruits and not being able to get up. I think this is related to the pregnancy and fetal development subject I'm doing at uni.

Truly thank you, Belsomra I took a few days ago!

Gratitude thread :)

Grateful the days are slowly getting longer. Albeit slowly.

Bit of an odd one tonight for dinner. Zucchini slice and banana bread with custard.

It does feel good to use up dodgy fruit and veg though.

I really like the way all the climbers from different countries stand at the bottom of the lead wall talking to each other and swapping notes on how to tackle it.

I keep seeing videos of a crazy lady snoot bopping big cats

I know they're gigantic danger cats that will kill you for fun, but I can't see them as anything except oversized stray kitty cats. They have NO BUSINESS being as cute as they are. They even do the slow blinks! And purrs!!!!!!!!!!! It's kind of fucked up that something that looks that huggable and petable is also so murderous (or at least, murder capable)

Afternoon brain fog is heavy. Really feel a quick power nap coming up soon.

The free food market was extra quick today. I told Mr Woof I'd be out for about an hour, but they started a bit early and I drew third place in line so I was back home in 20 mins! As well as the standard mix of fruit & veg I got some sausages and halloumi, plus a loaf of fruit bread.

The food cupboard was jam packed with bread this morning. I grabbed a loaf of bread, a couple of pizza bases (perfect timing, I just used the last one in the freezer) a few rolls which are great for toasties and a couple of fruit danishes. Thank you to Baker's Delight and all the people that didn't buy their stuff yesterday.

Am at the Wednesday client. The dog is practically climbing the couch waiting for the dog walker. 😄

The zucchini slice is in the oven minus the bacon coz I cbf going to get any.

Hey

Echo

Had a local noodle place for dinner last night. Haven't been for ages and it's no fault of the noodle place, their food is always good.

I almost wanted to say sorry to them for being away for so long, it just mentally fell off my radar as a place to go eat and then I was looking for the right opportunity to eat there when I remembered.
