  Back home after sleep school. I won’t say finally a chance for a regular night’s sleep, but lets try to keep up the good habits with the kids and there might be many good nights’ sleep for us in the future

  Been feeling low and grumpy today. Positive emotions completely dulled while negative emotions seem to get an extra boost. But at least I cut short the work day on both ends today and had some wins at work.

  My favourite auntie got into a bad and easily avoidable car accident (total write off, front looked completely mangled) thanks to her stupid idiot overconfident narcisssistic husband, who honestly should’ve been off the roads years ago. They’re in WA so no way of easily going there. Instead here I am simmering in anger at that man (nobody likes him. Except my aunt who is a martyr). Thank fuck there were no injuries, maybe minor whiplash for my aunt.

  At least I guess it means they’ll get a new car with all the safety features but really the safest thing they can do is take the dickhead’s licence away. I hope he’ll voluntarily do it after this massive wake up call… small chance given his outsized ego but he’s softened a bit over the years.

    You could buy some mince and chop it up, mix it with the mince and make hamburgers or you could fry the mince and throw in chopped up parsley and spices or you could make a pesto with some pine nuts. Pine nuts are cheaper at Aldi.

      I’m sort of a few days out from being able to shop again so I have try and make do with what I have at the moment.

      I was going to make garlic butter bread/loaf slices and maybe thinking about using the pasley in that.

      Was going to do fish burgers too but I don’t know if pasley mixes well with that?

      Flat leaf parsley is toxic to dogs in large amounts, curly leaf is fine. It's best to avoid flat leaf just to be sure.

  Anti-gratitude thread

  The delayed phase sleep syndrome I’m dealing with. Even when I’ve woken up early and gotten shit sleep, I can’t seem to fall asleep early. Going to the pharmacy to get my hands on some schedule 3 meds.

    How do you even get diagnosed with DSPD in this country? I always get Drs and psychiatrists telling me to go to sleep earlier and be very dismissive when I ask for sleep tests done. Normal sleeping pills don’t work at all for me, the best tools I have are agomelatine, clonidine, and cannabis (all taken together if I need to force a sleep bc of society).

    Anyways, I’m not grateful for dismissive doctors who think I am trying to get pills off of them to abuse. Also fuck my sleeping disorder!

    source

    • LowExperience2368@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I didn’t get diagnosed with it, but I think I have a delayed phase thing going on. It might not be disorder level, because I’m not sleeping at a mega ridiculous time, but my rhythm is just kinda in shock and I haven’t been to sleep before midnight probably in about two years.

      I think it’s more a bad habit per se. Although no matter what time I wake up one day, I will still not be able to fall asleep. It’s strange.

      source
  • DolphinLundgrin@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    I’ve only tried melatonin (gives me poor quality sleep) and weed (give me poor quality bank balance) for my DSPD. Is there anything else you might recommend?

    source

    • Baku@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I notice that I tend to have bad dreams more often when I take melatonin, but I’m not sure whether that’s an actual side effect or just a case of getting better quality sleep, and for longer. What dose did you take?

  Grateful for female friendships! Not being upset like I was a year ago because my ex was too busy to talk to me. The sun. Dog attempting to wake me up twice, potentially because someone has either left the house or arrived.

    @LowExperience2368 @Seagoon_ Female friendships are the best ☺️

    (The only catch for me is I tend to be someone people come to with problems. So there's been days when my bestie has come to me with troubles, and then my other bestie, and then mum, and then wifey 😫.)

    Anyways. Grateful thoughts.

    One of the ways wifey and I split jobs is that I do the dishes at night and she, in theory, puts them away every morning.

    In practice, most days I end up doing it.

    Well...

    A couple of days ago, I waited to see how long it would take for her to do it.

    6pm — nope. 7pm. 8pm.

    Are you going to put them away? "In a minute!"

    9pm. 10pm.

    Eventually it gets to midnight. Still not put away and she's fast asleep.

    So I put them away. At midnight. I might have made a bit more noise than usual in the process.

    She wakes up: "Why are you doing that now? It's midnight!"

    Oh sorry, it got to midnight and the dishes still weren't put away from this morning, so I'm doing it...

    Anyways.

    I woke up this morning, and the dishes were all in the drawers.

    Grateful ☺️

  How to jump start a neighbour’s Ford Focus with the key-opened bonnet :

  Step 1: Try to open the bonnet.

  Step 2: With their friends, in total four of us, take turns repeating step 1 while watching YouTube.

  Step 3: Celebrate too hard after finally spending almost 2 hours getting the damn bonnet open … and helplessly watch as they accidentally smash the windshield with said bonnet.

  Step 4: Connect batteries, start car, warn neighbour fuel is at 5%, pray that they have enough to gain enough charge to restart after refuelling.

  Step 5: Bitch about the problem.

  @Seagoon_ My boss (this is not the "manager") insists on having a team meeting every Friday afternoon.

  She insists on having another one first thing Monday morning.

  Are these meetings happening so we can talk about what we're working on?

  Well, not really. That's what the Wednesday meeting is for.

  No, I'm now 99% sure the whole point of the Friday meeting is so she can tell everyone how much fun she will have skiing or bushwalking this weekend.

  And the Monday one? That's to force people to listen to how much fun she had skiing or bushwalking this weekend.

• Baku@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  My filling that I got on Monday started hurting at about 8pm yesterday. It’s odd. I didn’t have any pain on Tuesday, obviously didn’t have any on Monday (half my face was numb), and on Wednesday I only had a little bit that was easily fixed with a Panadol. This one isn’t so lucky. And it seems to have been timed nicely with feeling a bit blegh.

  Hopefully I have a good sleep, and a good sleep fixes it

  I decided against meatballs instead made stuffed capsicums so I asked google how long to put into the airfryer and she replied with “I don’t know. Here’s a link I found on the web” which I did not receive because it will go to the man’s phone instead.

  Yesterday I asked her how to whistle she replied “Some people say to close your lips and blow but it’s hard to do without lips”.

  My google has turned sassy.
