Went really well!
Tired but had a pretty good day. A lot of induction and training which is to be expected.
Got to chat to the owner and he’s a really nice guy.
No real complaints! ❤️

Tomorrow you get to play name roulette with the blur of faces
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Lol too true. I remember 4 or 5 of the 40 or so.
Fuck it was just good to be away from the house. Cabin fever was fucking me up.

Yay! So glad to hear it went well.

Thanks. Sometimes I just slap food on a plate. They’re the ones you don’t see. 😂

If anyone is interested, the school I presented at had a nice write up about yesterday. It is a facebook link though
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Congrats dude! thats pretty sick. Your name vs your username has broken my mind though. I know its just adding 2 letters, but my mind just cant comprehend it.
danwritesbooks@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Lol thanks!
StudChud@aussie.zone 3 months ago
This is so cool! You’ve inspired young kids to write and read, that’s huge meaningful gift you’ve given them!
Gosh, the covers of your books look sick as, definitely inspired me to locate them and give them a read! 💜
danwritesbooks@aussie.zone 3 months ago
My cover guy is amazing. Turns my stick figure nonsensical ideas into what you see.
danwritesbooks@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Thank you! I think the schools appreciated the effort into creating funs ways to get them into reading and writing as well. Hoping to do some more of them soon.
Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 3 months ago
I really enjoyed Revenge of the Flightless.

About to go at some gutters. Neighbours’ big tree is overhanging the shed so they’re always full. I like the tree and I’m fine cleaning it up (usually compost it) but he refused to pay for half the recently rebuilt fence so fuck him he’s going get a lot of leaves on his side of the boundary. His leaves, my problem, soon to be his problem. He also has a pool so we’re aiming there.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Yeah, fuck him. I’d be doing the same.
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 months ago
If I understand correctly, Gibson is angry that I wasn’t home all day, but happy I’m here now dispensing scritches and brushies.
Catfish@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Yeah, you’re going to have an adjustment thing. Lots of Pandemic pets are over anxious because they’ve never been alone.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 months ago
I’m gonna make this tonight for tea tonight and I’m so freakin excited.
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 3 months ago
ooh that looks good.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 months ago
I’m gonna pair it with lebanese rice, cucumbers and dolmades. And of course fresh lebanese bread.
danwritesbooks@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Oh that looks amazing.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 months ago
that looks delicious
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 months ago
I know right! I’ve made these components a million times and never thought to put them together on the same plate.
oztrin@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Bit of drama here: the shower which had been taking a little longer to drain but had been manageable suddenly… wasn’t yesterday, so I had to find a plumber.
To cut a long story short, actually found one via the local FB group who said they could come today, and was actually able to come earlyish this morning - sorted things out in 15 minutes including putting the tap in the shower back on and only charged me the callout fee. And thanked me for not using Drano.

Primary AND backup coffee places both closed for renovations?! You’ve gotta be shitting me. Any coffee recommendations around Melbourne central? Maccas just aint cutting it.
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Felt good today throwing leaves over the fence. It’s so petty but I feel happy.
Catfish@aussie.zone 3 months ago
There is another governmental envelope on the table. I looked up the PO Box. Yup 😾

Two times this week I got the dreaded ‘you seem like a great guy’ from online dating apps.
The first had bad experiences in the past with guys who have the same first name as me.
The second we were going to meet up tomorrow for the first time but messaged today to say they’ve reconnected with a guy from their past so cya.
I understand the reasons but boy, with the lady who ‘isn’t one for pushing drugs on people, but I think you should take some of my medication’, and one who said she just left a cult, online dating apps have not been fun (though, interesting).

Had a weird dream: I let in a cockatoo (white sulphur crested) to chill with me while I slept, it wandered around on me/the bed as I drifted in and out of sleep, and it kept biting me - not so hard it hurt but like quite hard. It moved around biting my hands, legs, head. It then summoned a buddy cockatoo to chill and bite me more. Dream ended when one of the cockatoos peed on my face
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 3 months ago
I just wanna move on cries
I think my matcha and coffee today was too much caffeine :(
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Sitting at my desk and being blinded by the sun. This is wonderful.

Pakige is waiting for me at the post office. After my Temu splurge I will have a few more coming over the next couple of weeks too. I am undermining my own decluttering progress. Hopefully a couple of things I have up for sale get bought soon and cancel it out a bit!
Duenan@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Work day nearly over for me, can’t wait to get out. Been a very busy day here and finally getting some quiet downtime for just a little bit.
Going to pick up some more pizzas at the supermarket because I feel like it, ha!
bull@aussie.zone 3 months ago
In the office today. Nothing exciting going on. I do have a test iPhone 15 I’m considering trying out (moving my personal sim over to it) but I’m so embedded into the Android/Google ecosystem that I don’t know if I can be bothered. Plus it’d render my smartwatch somewhat useless, at least while I use the iPhone which wouldn’t be permanent.
I will likely change my mind in the next 15-20 minutes and just do it. I’m a wildcard.

Gratitude thread 🦓
Grateful for getting more sleep last night and my dog for being my weighted blanket for five seconds.
I also have this vague memory of someone recently telling me to hold on until spring and summer and I’ll feel better. Or someone saying it to someone. No idea who, what, when, where or how, but it’s nice to see a brighter sky.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 months ago
It’s been so warm and sunny I think I’ll go to the beach tomorrow.

I fell sleep but the day hasn’t been wasted
did 30 minutes weeding in the garden and planted jalapeno seeds. Did 30 minutes, of sanding of the chair. Have done many loads of washing. Did some grocery shopping.
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 3 months ago
So brought down a bunch of braches overhanging the shed. I am now in love with the kukri. Did WAY better than loppers. 10/10 new fave cut shit tool.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 months ago
I have now officially spent too much on Temu. I am completely out of money so will be stopping now. 😬 I was suckered in to buying a tool to make meatballs, so I guess meatballs will be on the menu soon.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 months ago
Started watching a K Drama last night and feel utterly sucked it. Might also just be bored at work, but I wanna go home and watch it! Also, my mofusand plushie has been delivered so I wanna see that! Feeling like a petulant child today!
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 months ago
So far so good! Lots of induction and training to do. Will take up the rest of the week pretty much.
It’s so nice to be back at work 🎉
