    Today was a new record, woke up at 7:30 but didn’t leave the bed - not even to go to the bathroom - until 6pm. I have completely checked out of all my obligations and requirements today… wasn’t gonna make me feel better with no food or water, but I don’t feel substantially worse either.

    At least I’ve got dinner with me now - a nice hearty Moroccan tagine packed with veggies, and some pappadums - dragged the laptop back to the bedroom and gonna binge watch stuff until I fall asleep. Maybe I’ll start with the movie CODA since I’ve been on an apple+ run lately (🏴‍☠️, of course)

    I think this is my body just going “you sorted out the car and job. NOW RELAX”

    source
    • CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Do you have an actual tagine because I want one but they’re so awkward to store in a tiny kitchen?

      source
      • just_kitten@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Nah, this was premade, I’ve never made one let alone with an actual tagine…

      Wow. That’s impressive.

      Sometimes you have to listen to your body and let it rest when it needs it.

      Dinner sounds yummy!

      It’ll be even more impressive if you can get to sleep at a reasonable time tonight.

      Check out a show called “Tales from the loop” if it’s on Apple+

      source
      • just_kitten@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Late reply, but this sounds right up my alley! I’ll definitely check it out.

    It’s crazy how much power a dream can have on us.

    Had one with my old man in it and I was a kid.

    Felt the exact same terror I felt when I was that age. There’s this look he’d give me and I knew I was absolutely fucked.

    I woke up semi hyper ventilating.

    Even after all this time, even as a grown man, you never forget that stuff I guess.

      My neighbour had been doing tons of loud renos at all hours for months . He seems to have stopped the past week or so. Thankfully.

      Other neighbours were starting to shout at him 😬

    If I were Prime Minister, I would make it law that if a Public Holiday falls on a Tuesday/Wednesday or Thursday, than the rest of the rest is also a day off. Who has the motivation to work today?

    Good news: the auction place will take most of the furniture that can’t fit into the new place that I don’t want.
    Bad news: I have to take it myself.
    Good news: it should fit into the new car, and my lawn guy and occasional helper will drop by and help me load up the car.
    Bad news: trying to get my Google profile for the business verified and none of the methods work. This is frustrating as I’m using the practice room as a sorting hub after I cleared it yesterday.
    Good news: I stress cleared the pile of crap I scooped off the floor and slung into a very large bag and most of it is now in the bin.
    Bad news: I have a headache bordering on a migrane and I really can’t stop to indulge it.
    Good news: the old cooking chocolate seems to be helping. ;)

    Fucking Australian banks. I’ve been overseas for some time now and international transactions have worked, grab app has made several deductions.

    Get to my last hotel. They attempt a prepayment of just under 300 aud. Bank denies transaction. No reason given. Fucks sake.

    Fortunately I had my Transfer Wise card with me which worked just fine.

        I was definitely irritated. Then several other things flustered me afterwards. Not loving the vibe of HCMC so far. It’s a bit much with gritty and somewhat sleazy undertones.

        @CEOofmyhouse56 @StudChud @melbourne Parmas, not parmis.

        And while where at it, it's a pot of beer, not a schooner.

        It's a potato cake, not a scallop (?!?!).

        It's a freeway, not a motorway.

        They're bathers, not toggs.

        And if Teddy Whitten isn't either playing or coaching, then it's not really State of Origin.

    New snack unlocked:

    A cracker, put on some franks hawt sauce, put on cheddar cheese, put on sriracha, put on a little bit of spring onion, put on finely sliced chilli, put on a dollop of plum sauce and a dollop of sweet soy (all very small amounts). Bit of cracked black pepper on top…

    @Seagoon_ So I stopped by Priceline while I was at the shops to pick up some foundation.

    On my way home, I noticed that I got the one that's a shade darker than I normally get.

    Then when I got home, I realised that I had made the exact same mistake last time.

    The moral of the story? If you're going to be a careless idiot, it pays to at least be consistent.

    When my husband and I started going out together, sometime last century, we would grab some f&cs and sit in a park somewhere. We’d declare it “International Fish & Chip Saturday Day”. So my question of the day is what would your International celebration day be and when?

    I need some advice because I lack the most basic of social awareness:

    I’ve been texting someone, only a couple of times so far, but I have just realised I’ve spelled their name wrong the two times I’ve used it (has a j instead of a y). I feel bad and I know it makes me feel awkward if someone gets my name wrong. I want to apologise but then I feel like if I bring it up, I’m bringing attention to something they maybe not noticed?

    Silicon-based lifeforms are fun to think about, but if we find extraterrestrial life I guarantee it’ll be carbon-based. The bonds between silicon are so weak, so easily broken, while carbon is insanely stable. It’s bonds are strong in comparison.

    Though, with how fast the Universe, spacetime, is expanding, it is likely we will only find other life within our solar system. Or we make a generation starship. But if we did that, then I imagine tech would progress to the point that by the time the first generation starship arrives at it’s destination, newer ships will have already arrived.
