Good news! Just got a phone call from work, the client found the missing $$$ (and from the sound of it it was $$$) so that's a relief to say the least. Change in the attitude of the carer lead was... a thing. But a cordial conversation was had and she's taken me off that client, so all well there.
I'd put in an application to join a union this morning and I'll keep on with it, as knowing aged care odds are that Something Will Happen.
But now I can do dinner tonight and really enjoy it, not just try and use it as a distraction!I had an accident trimming my beard last night, the length attachment fell off while using and took a huge chunk of it out. Didn't have any other option but to trim it all off. I kept the mo and some of the "soul patch" (had to look up what that's called, strange name). I haven't been hairless on my face like this for years, it's an adjustment. Feeling wind on my cheeks this morning was weird and kinda nice. Maybe this was divine intervention to change it up.
Just patted a beautiful Greyhound on the way to work. I love their big emotional googly eyes 😍
A medical appointment gave me the chance to be taken back to the op shop because there was a Led Zeppelin shirt I didn’t grab. You snooze you lose, probably snapped up 30 seconds after I left by a reseller.
But I did get some Buffy dvds and some art books. I went a little ham because things are getting scrubbed from the internet and I’m rediscovering the importance of physical media.
Life is a little bit easier now the demanding meds schedule is over, instead of stressing Melbcat out all the time we can focus on cuddling and chilling together.
Hey Centrelink, if my appointment is booked for 2:30pm, that means it's at 2:30pm and you shouldn't call twice at 9:23 and 9:36 and get pissy that I'm not available. "Be sure to be ready at the time it's scheduled for." THAT TIME ISN'T FOR FIVE HOURS GO AWAY.
Also Astro Bot is an amazing game. Strong recommend.
Ugh, I really wanted to take PT and the Skybus to the airport and save $30 on an uber but... in this weather, I don't trust PT to get me to the city on time, and fuck schlepping it in the wet. I got paid today, I'm taking the uber. AND treating myself to a schnacko at the airport if I get peckish. I can take the Skybus on the way back.
Off we go! No panic and anxiety. There are some things I appreciate having a job that pays money for
Oi... Thought I'd start a playlist thread. Maybe I'll do it weekly, maybe I won't...who knows..
Blood donation done
New outdoor light installed
Bottles and can returned, cash collected
It's not even noon!!
I currently have an annoying bit of string stuck in my teeth, and I can't remove it because it's the end of my disolving stitches and is tied into my gums. I do not like this situation.
Wooohooo weekend! Early dinner with a couple friends tonight then nothing on and I will veg out to my heart's content. Big week. Finally fully signed off and soon my job proper. Now just getting better and quicker and doing more as the weeks pile up. I got this!
Well that was good timing. It was bucketing down on the drive home, cleared up in time for the dog walk, and now it's bucketing down again now that I'm home.
Stupid rain. I'm buying a cheap tarp to cover stuff.
So there is a 6 hour long Dreading (yt channel) video on this small US politician who murdered a journo.
He took the stand, none of his defence guiding him, and did a defence by narration 😱🤣🤣🤣🤣 I've died from laughter. He has no proof he was framed, and keeps getting objected because it's just hearsay.
Haven't even gotten to the cross exam yet and this guy thinks he can just say what he wants. I'm losing my fucking mind that an amazing journalist, Jeff German, lost his life to this utterly deluded psychopath.
Edit: I can't breathe, the perp is an actual idiot. I can say with confidence that he has no braincells. Cross exam has started and I've died again 🤣
The weather's a bit awul out there, Mr Woof's walk might be as brief as I can get away with. On a positive note the rice cooker should have made a start on dinner by the time I get home.
I had a peppermint aero, just a little one. It was delicious.
just put on a soundtrack and this came up. truly one of my fave pieces of music, and i mean that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0l6xfQpgt0

Are images on aussie.zone broken for anyone else or is this a federation issue with lemmy.ml?
