Miss Meow managed to knock her toy completely upside down whilst flying past doing zoomies. Apparently being upside down makes it very interesting and mysterious again.

Gibson does the exact same thing! She wonât acknowledge itâs existence until I turn it upside down and suddenly, new toy!
Eagle@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Ours is currently sideways. Has 2/3 cats intrigued.
Catfish@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Interesting idea. It has failed on the green version.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Curious to see if this is a âmeâ thing or not. so does anyone else when they make a new mate become like low key obsessed for a bit? or not obsessed but like, the social anxiety just dial up a couple of notches? just for like the first couple of days of the proper mateship. Then it always settles down. Like every time your phone buzzes your like âOh, I hope its X personâ. and when they take a bit to reply you go âOh, did I message them too many times? did I say something weird?â when you know theyâre probs just busy.
wscholermann@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Honestly itâs been so long since I made new friends I canât really remember.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Itâs completely normal
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
For sure man. I donât really have family so friendships are really important to me. I defs get all in my head about it when Iâm connecting with someone new
TinyBreak@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
same boat hey, makes friendships so much more important.
Aradina@lemmy.ml âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Yes. Right now, in fact
Nath@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Iâm a slow boil. Iâll be interacting with someone for ages before I suddenly realise one day theyâve made the move from acquaintance to friend.
So, no. For me itâs more a sudden realisation after a bit. Iâm reminded somewhat of the way my wife and I started dating here.
MeanElevator@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Not just a you thing. Made a couple of good mates from my gym and texting anxiety was through the roof. Turns out they felt the same.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
making mates as an adult is HARD hey
Taleya@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Sad brain day today. Feeling very unloved and missing my ginger boy so much i want to bawl
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
You go ahead and bawl. Unless this upsets the other cats of course.

The cat has been real picky lately. Turned his nose up at his usual wet food, so Iâve been trying other brands/flavours.
Seem to have settled on salmon paté, and will try the salmon in gravy later on.
Finicky, picky little Mickey
Catfish@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Oh Mickey youâre so picky đ¶ I donât understand why you wonât eat this can
StudChud@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Oh Mickey youâre so picky
Canât you understand
Fish keeps you hydrated
Though it comes in a can
melbaboutown@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Sometimes Melbcat isnât too excited about her wet food but will eat it with a meal topper of some cracker crumbs, or a couple of treats sprinkled on top.
StudChud@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I have tried putting some treats on top, but heâs too smart and wonât have it lol.
Heâs been gobbling up the patĂ©, so I think thatâs a winner for now.
underwatermagpies@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I had my covid booster yesterday. Free from Chemist Warehouse (probably lots of other places too), got an easy online booking within 48 hours, was straight in and out when I got there and the pharmacist was lovely. No side effects except a sore arm.
Hospitalisations are rising again, get on it if youâre due for a jab (if itâs been more than 12 months).
StudChud@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Ah thank you for the reminder; Iâll have to book a jab in so I donât get it again lol.
Duenan@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
You might not need to get a jab because you recently caught covid.
It think it was recommended that you get a booster 6 months after you catch covid.
Mittens_meow@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Iâm always envious of those who get vaccinations without being knocked out for weeks.
Catfish@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Last shot Boyo got he was deliriously singing little songs about dancing bbq prawns. Hilarious but actually concerning.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Until covid Iâve never had any reactions beyond a sore arm and a mild headache. The Covid vax was so awful I have decided I canât put myself through that again.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
just got the flu shot yesterday, totally worth it!
oztrin@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Survived the move. Of which more later.
Now on hold to Cennalink while they try to sort out what to do about the inheritance business.StudChud@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago

I have a ton of crows in my back yard having some sort of cawing competition. Is this a sign of something? Should I be worried? Iâve also had a black cat cross my pathâŠ
tone212_@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
This has been happening at my place too sans the black cat sighting. Theyâre so loud as well. I donât know what attracts them here.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
The crows are definitely a rare event where I am, although the black cat is a regular occurrence. Usually she is trying to trip me up.
There have also been a lot of cockies around lately, probably related to the liquidambar seeds everywhere. Maybe itâs some sort of bird war?
StudChud@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Your friendly neighbourhood witch
Catfish@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I always feel the need to say Good Morning to Crows and Ravens. No particular superstition about it, it just feels right.
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I feel that way about maggies as well.
bacon@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
the crows in my area have been more active the past couple of days too
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Did the black cat walk under the ladder and break a mirror on the way through? If not, then I think youâre all good.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
She was being a bit suspicious in the vicinity of both my stepladder and a cracked mirror in my sewing room the other day, does that count?
melbaboutown@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Clearance Kmart sketch kit arrived yesterday. The first thing I cracked into was the sandpaper sharpening board. Itâs really small and the wooden backing is chipboard but itâs a vast improvement on trying to smooth/taper pencil leads with a pack of emery boards. (Doable but awkward and very easy to start honing at the wrong angle. They were previously all that was on hand and it was a hassle to buy sandpaper alone.)
tombruzzo@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
It sounds like this might be the thing to get you back into art
melbaboutown@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Hopefully. Thereâs been a few things discouraging me, not least being so constantly tired
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Thereâs a stall at my local farmers market specialising in gluten free stuff and I have spent all day today thinking about the hot pie I am gonna have for breakfast tomorrow. Itâs the little things
Mittens_meow@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Eat a pie for me!! Itâs hard to find good gf stuff.
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
IKR it tastes like freedom when you finally find something good!!
TinyBreak@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
works had this thing blow up that I warned them would blow up last year. Really struggling to pretend to give a shit. Its got real âOH No! the consequences of our own actions!â kinda vibes.
wscholermann@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
ah IT. How Iâve missed you.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Right? I love how you tell someone âThis is against MS best practicesâ and they go âYeah, but Iâm SURE its FIIIIIIINEâ then have the nerve to be like âOMG you MUST fix this thing that MS warned us would happen!!!â
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Blerghhhhhh
That is all.

The amount of moisture I essentially mopped off my bedroom window this morning was revolting.

If anyone remembers an old tool song called Pushit and wants to hear a not bad version I did the other night, thereâs the link.
I used to perform singing and playing guitar for a couple of years when I got sober, but stopped singing and focused on guitar.
Trying to get back into it now. Always open to criticism, constructive or otherwise!

Assignment done! 3 days and 2 hours overdue and it wasnât my best work.
But the most important thing is that itâs done, I should get some kind of grade for it that is a bit higher than a zero, and Iâll be getting feedback on it.
Now onto studying for my exam.

This week the man was nominated as worker of the month. So he spun the big wheel. Literally. And won a $50 card to spend. Question is do I spend it on food, beer or fuel?
Duenan@aussie.zone âš11â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Work relationships are so complicated.
My co-worker/superior spoke badly to someone Iâm friends with and unfortunately also at the same time spoke for me.
Had to go during my break to apologise for it all I suppose explain a few things and whatnot.
Incident involved a really rudely delivered snappy comment about being busy but it came off really badly I felt.
Anyway I donât understand why she snapped like she did and I couldnât explain it and often I see double standards about things.
Just need to get through the rest of the day no trying to maintain the peace.

I started playing fortnite. Never played it before. Actually pretty damn fun with friends!
Feel like such a zoomer with discord running on a seperate screen and fortnite going at the same time lol

One person won the 150 mil, and still went to work today! I would have stopped working immediately.

Soooo when a road that people live on gets closed for roadworks, are they meant to like⊠tell the people that live on it? Because the first Iâm hearing of them ripping up and repaving our road is when they parked a gigantic machine in front of our driveway at 7am thatâs making an absolute shit ton of noise. The housemate has a car that nobody told him he wouldnât be able to take out of the driveway eitherâŠ

I was wondering why I wake up in morning with a body battery of 10% and sometimes 90% (according to my watch) even though I get the same amount and quality of sleep.
So Iâm doing experiments and found it mainly comes down to night snacking. The more snacks and/or closer to bedtime equals lower body battery in the morning. No snacks equals higher body battery in the morning.
Interesting. I will keep experimenting.
