Another warm one today ☀
It went well with my friend yesterday.
I was upfront and said that I just wanted to give him some space and he understood.
He said it’s cool and there’s no need to on my end.
In other news, I tried playing an online game with another friend. Never again. He’s one of those guys that takes it waaaaay too seriously. Shame.
We’re gonna get along GREAT. Just out of curiosity how quickly and frequently can you spam the “Reinforce” buttons to call down replacement squadmates who accidentally took a hit from their own orbital bombardment?
Super fast! Man I love this game and I never play online stuff. It’s so well made and you can just pick it up and play for a bit then walk off.
Dimple?
Never trust a person with a dimple on their chin.
My dear gran told me that. Highly catholic and kept holy water in her fridge.
I have a confession. I love Ted Cat. I was reading and looked down and saw him sleeping leaning against my feet. He does that a lot. 🥹 And he’s such a funny cheeky brave little guy, even if he is a little chonky.
I love how Ted Cat has found a forever home. ♥
He and Bill Cat are inseparable now
It’s clearly floof, not chonk!
oh, there is a lot of chonk under that floof
Fluffy!
Half a mouse? Thank you boys, you shouldn’t have…. 🙀 🎁
I got a dead rat gift last week. And a live mouse gift yesterday. 🎁 I know I should consider myself blessed, but I had to laugh at the look of disgust Ms black cat gave me when I told her those kinds of gifts are for outside only as I shooed her out the back door.
Thing is my boys are 95% indoor, so they found it the house.
Ughhhh I went to a different barber than the one I went to last time and he fucked up my hair. He also scratched me with his scissors and started ripping out my hair while not even paying attention. An old lady next to me said my hair looks like “Elvis when he was in a war”. I don’t know what that means or if it’s meant to be a compliment but that doesn’t really sound like one
I pay a ridiculous amount for a fade and beard trim, but it’s so worth it.
Not a compliment indeed. The classic short back and sides with (by the sound of it) extra raggedy bits. Um, I don’t think I’d go to this barber again. Surely there must be others near you?
I went to this one because I was at a specific clothes shop at a shopping centre a bit away from me and it was just across from it so I figured I may as well just do a 2 birds situation. The one I went to when I had my hair cut lazy in Dec was only about 5 mins away from me and they did alright, so I think I’ll go back to them next time.
I don’t think it’s beyond fixing, it’s mostly just uneven and not short enough on the sides to get the look I was going for, but then I’ll pretty much end up paying $80 for one haircut. Normally I’d just suck it up and deal with it, but I have to present part of a conference on Saturday so I don’t really have much choice
That said, I learnt a couple of years ago that I don’t look that bad if I shave off almost all my hair. I do the almost bald look better than I should for a 17 year old. So I have options
The blep 😍
He’s adorable ♥
aww, he’s so cute 🩷
Apparently my daycare did a “Lockdown” drill today. Got me thinking how quickly I could get down there with a cricket bat. Assuming I FLOG the SHIT out of the car (which of course, you would), reckon we could turn a 10 minute drive into 2 if I disabled all the safety systems on the car.
And that is an ABSOLUTLEY terrifying thought. How do people have kids in America!?
Lockdowns are more scary for the parents than they are for the kids. My daughter’s primary school was in lockdown because a brown snake entered the yard so not all intruders are 2 legged.
It’s a standard drill now. I suspect this is a hyperbolic comment but please do not put put yourself and other peoples lives in danger by “flogging it” and then adding to the confusion at the site amongst emergency responders.
Imagine yourself as a police response unit encountering a man rushing into a daycare with a cricket bat.
worst drill I saw was a nuclear attack drill
this happened in downtown detroit when i lived there 12 years
the public wasn’t told, it was a services and government drill
thanks guys, we were just expected to die
I would like some clouds and rain please. Thank you.
Maybe tomorrow if you’re lucky.
I just mowed and trimmed the trees to make sure it will rain. Car is already quite clean.
I’ll be watering after work today, so it should rain tomorrow. (My little plants look a bit thirsty)
Just got stood up by Microsoft. Pretty rude for a Monday morning.
<nerdjoke> I hear if they defer the meeting more than three times, it forcefully makes them attend anyway </nerdjoke>
Office 364
Support? Sales wouldn’t miss a meeting $$
I just saw a mouse in the garage. Furry little fuckers.
God I’m phoning this shit in HARD today. Caffeine has barely helped.
reminds me, on hot days I forget to have coffee , I’m having one now :)
I did another load of laundry and moved stuff to vacuum an entire room then passed out until 3/4 am. (After sleeping the whole day before that.) So tired. The little lovebug is cuddling and purring.
Ha TIL I live almost the same life as melbabouttown, except I don’t have a lovebug and I didn’t move stuff
Oh. Apparently there’s a recall for my charger. Apparently officeworks just kinda… Forgot to attach the plastic to the internal wires and stuff, so it can just… fall off

The last warm night of summer… maybe. Bring on the chill! 🥶 I will regret these words in about a month or so from now.
Stayed up all night last night, and slept all day (it was meant to be a small nap 😭)
I’m out of it, so bamboozled and confuddled
I found out yesterday that the 2500 point free large McCafe beverage party is over. Used to be 2500 points for any McCafe beverage so I would get a free large iced latte and my crispy chicken Caesar wrap when I’m out on the road for lunch.
Now it’s 2500 points for a small or medium and 5000 points for a large.
Has been a good thing for years but sadly nothing good lasts forever.
Are my green tomato’s going to ripen or is it too late?
my chili plants are still flowering, any fruit when winter comes goes on the window sill to ripen.
Man dies falling from hot air balloon in Preston. So tragic. I was thinking of getting a ticket soon too.
doubt he fell.
14 bucks for a coffee!!! I mean, it was delivered. But kid only went to sleep properly at 4am, and the mrs stole my car since hers still isnt 100% ready. Truth be told, i would have paid up to 30 bucks for the coffee, but I wasnt gonna tell Menulog that.
People always go on about how they grow up so fast and that I’ll miss the years they were little.
No. I do not miss the years. At all. I am so glad I had them, and regret nothing. But I don’t miss them.
I deffo will. The good days outweigh the bad. But given this is a bad day I feel allowed to complain about how 4 hours sleep is NOT enough.

What’s stranger fact or fiction?
Fact: Do not take anything across the border for a stranger.
Fact: Sandwiches taste much better when cut on the diagonal.
Since I was an idiot and didn’t see my shift swap was for next week, I’ve had coffee, picked up my dry cleaning, drank at least a litre of water and had some sunshine (and a very tasty coffee scroll that was more like a croissant).
There is so much more I could do… but like I want a nap now…
sky pretty, birds chirping, door open to let cool fresh air in
It’s very lovely this morning.
Have that tingly feeling of a light cold coming on, bleghhh
I somewhat fixed my sleeping pattern by sleeping excessively, waking up overly early and staying up… then I spent all my energy on a drs appt and crashed. I’m now back in the pattern I was. 😑 Thanks for the dehydration nightmare, brain.
I don’t think this bus has any shock absorbers at all. Going to have to count my teeth after this ride.
Ah crap. Ordered something through JB for delivery. Both myself and the missus are working next two days (and will be out of the house). JB didn’t give the courier authority to leave. We don’t drive.
How fucked are we?
cough cough you ok bro? You dont sound well!
Argh, drat, that’s a good point, I’ve been having the beginnings of a sore throat today.
You’d have to give them a call if it hasn’t been shipped yet and see if they can do something about it or at least find out what would happen to your order if they don’t leave it.
Alas, it went out at midday. According to JB, if it isn’t received in person, it goes to the depot for pickup.
Going to chat with boss about it tomorrow methinks.

WHEW, I was getting a bit anxious there but it was just an HR delay… got the contract and I start tomorrow!!!
Fuck me today’s a bad day to have a hell of a headache though, the “how to be normal and sociable” part of my brain is QUITE atrophied after 3.5 months of funemployment and honestly 4 years of a job that became increasingly isolated and let everyone descend into being slobs 😂
