Remember to slip slop slap and keep up with your water intake today! It’s a hot one!
Mabel had her first groom today and they just sent me a Christmas photo of her. Look at her happy lil tongue 🥹
In other news: I’m mad at how much work I have to do despite making it very clear to the universe that I was not planning on working this month.
So dapper!
Her ears!! She’s so adorable!
You’re an absolute legend of a mum! I hope Miniest is grateful…
She is, and a bit stunned that it happened like that I think lol. I like to keep a few tricks up my sleeve 😉
Now to try not to eat too many 🤭
These look incredible! I have a feeling I’ll be baking some cookies this week.
They kind of remind me of the Kodama forest spirits from Princess Mononoke.
I’ve decided im going to write 5 new songs in my 2 week break.
The rules are:
Must be able to be performed by myself
Must use existing lyrics
At the end of each day, what’s completed is the final song
Must be ready to be performed by the 2nd week of Jan.
May as well use the break to do something artistic.
Those seem like good rules to make sure you get results
Fuck yeah you got this Music Man!!
That is so cool! 😎 I wish I could write songs, and I bet I’m not the only one here who wishes they were musically inclined! Slay it bro! 💪🏼
Miniest has decided to go to her class party tomorrow after previously telling me she wasn’t interested in going. That’s fine, except she has to bring a plate and I haven’t got anything. Rather than do a shop dash in the morning and spend a fortune on cakes or donuts or some crap, I’ve decided that seeing as how I’ve got the stuff to make choc chip cookies then I’ll do that. Yes, I am about to make choc chip cookies right now. Pray for mojo!
Choc chip cookies are very well received!
You’re amazing :)
Best mum ever!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
You got this!!!
in a pinch anzacs are always acceptable, especially if you make them massive AF
We are in beautiful Timaru. Currently 10°c and raining.
It’s all good though. We have a beach front room with a spa. We have food and beer. No need to go out again.
Me: Look dear, we can have a spa and a beer together.
Kid: Ew Yuck.
10 deg C! Grrrrrrr.
Hahahaha!
That’s so cool! Love the view! What a fantastic holiday!
Wish it was 10c here tho 😭
Beach front room with a spa and no need to go out again sounds bloody perfect!! Enjoy!
Thanks. There’s a little train track below. I missed the first train that went passed. Tryna get a pic for Baku. Also my bedroom has the same view as the living room. Winning.
didnt wanna end up on wikifeet? I can understand that. you know lily alen makes more from her foot based only fans than she does from her music royalties? Sad really.
That’s crazy… I’m in the wrong biz.
That’s too hot for shoes.
I was gonna make the joke but decided it was maybe a bit too far so didn’t. Then everybody else did and got all the upvotes!
Anyway I opened my door and maxed out my fan, so it’s dropped a couple degrees.
Deviants pay for feet pics. Even ugly feet.
Ugh. I wondered, why was the water for the birds spilled again when I weighted it down this time?
Review footage. Dero guy was staggering through, stopped and stared at the dish of water, then straight up slapped it onto the ground. Why has more than one of them done this? They actually turn out of their way to approach it and throw it down as hard as they can.
I swear these dudes just go out of their way to be aggressive pieces of shit.
What a jerk!
They’ve done a lot worse than that. But it’s just so petty and kind of threatening.
Job interview at 2:30 today. So I’ll need to deal with the heat as well as ducking out for a cheeky interview during work hours
I’ve got one at 10. And my whole unit is covid exposed. Interviewing in an N95 mask, yay!
I hope they took that alright and weren’t weird about you wearing a mask
Good luck!
Stay cool and good luck 🤞
24c in my house, and we were not only not using mains, we were still feeding 4kwh into the grid. I want to fry every landlord that has never taken advantage of solar incentives.
Ran a quick errand before I strap myself to the toilet (bowel prep - iykyk) and there are so many monarch butterflies in the city! They must be loving this humid heat.
Some days I feel so unappreciated at work, especially when I do things and put things in place to try and be more efficient at work and planning ahead to avoid disasters and more work.
I should just shut up, work my hours and get out of here instead of constantly trying to improve things.
Neighbour is outside watering. I swear, I’m gonna find his corpse one day with the hose going.
I noticed a bunch of Low’s comments were deleted in yesterday’s thread, and I just checked and now a bunch more from older threads are gone too. I hope they’re doing okay
I went outside to feed the cat family.
Holy fucking shit. Brutal out there.
Genuinely why is it not law that all rentals have aircon? It’s only quarter to eleven and my flat is sitting at 27 degrees and rising. God knows how cat and I will survive
Put on a (white) tshirt. Promptly dropped half a mango down my front.
Luckily the mango was saved. But new outfit time.
Back at the doctor’s for a finger check. There is still a bit of infection, so I might end up with more antibiotics. It is definitely much better than it was though.
Morning,
Crap Sleep Gang, checking in.
Reading some construction documents and having a weak chuckle over the “sequential erection procedure” that must include “member sizes” and “access for positioning and lifting of members”.
So checked out this week. I don’t have a backlog, everyone else does, but I ain’t helping out as I’ve already busted my arse to get to this point!
Iced Coffee at home - Spud’s Method
Brown out in Heidelberg. There’s some power, but not much.
I just booked tickets to the new lord of the rings movie , looks like it’s a 90% empty cinema😐
why don’t cinemas sell last minute seats at the door really cheap? 500 seats at $10 is better than 10 seats at 30
I put an emergency blanket over the window in my study because that’s the only window where sunlight comes in directly, it’s made an enormous difference and it was free lol
Big (good weekend).
This morning pilates will whip me hard. I’m fearful.
I am excited for vegables. Was strict meat and eggs for a week basically to kick start keto. Now tmrw morning I look forward to: 1 steak, 1 avo, 1 zucchini, and a half punnet of mushies. Cooked in butter. Have had like two salads in the last week but I’m missing veges. Going to keep up with on meal a day keto for the foreseeable future, just W more veg

been out to the shops.
Snark/general bitchiness
1) Mad respect to the mum who looked about 10 months pregnant juggling a 4 year old and a toddler in this heart! I struggle with 1 toddler. 2) To the older couple waiting in line to do a passport: fuck right off. Your both obviously retired you dont have to do it at lunch time. More over the point your not gonna get it this side of 2024 so why leave it till late december? wish aus post had’ve said “sorry there is an entire queue of people trying to ship christmas presents, kindly piss off till january, or at least not doing peak hours!” 3) to the lady having a bitch: Yes, lines suck. Yes its annoying that you had to come collect it. No I dont care that its medical weed. We’re all stuck here together so shut the f up! 4) To the mum who named her kid Malibu. WHY? Did you not think how that was gonna sound when they are a 5 year old and not listening to you? “Malllllibuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu”. Its almost worse than that raefarty post on the other site a couple of weeks back. Love chrismas but it brings out the worst in some people I swear.

😂😂😂 What is it with some people and medical cannabis? When I was still going to an indie MC pharmacy (they markup by 40% so I go to amcal instead now lol) there was a woman in there losing her fucking miiiiiiind about the availability of her particular flower script. Like, the po-po were called because she was making suuuuch a bloody ruckus. And of course, her car starts to get towed because it’s 4pm on Sydney Road on a weekday, and the tow trucks wait in the side streets for the hour to tick over and nab up everyone who doesn’t know 😂 so she’s losing her fucking mind, the po-po are on the way, and I had to tap her on the shoulder and go "um I think your car’s being towed). She put Usain Bolt to shame with how fast she got outside and into the face of the tow truck driver.
But it got her out of the shop, so the five other customers and myself could be served finally 😂
Sorry for the wall of text, your point number 3 just reminded me of that silly memory 😂
Also Xmas makes everyone stupid at the shops, plus the hot weather, people’s brains have fucking melted lol. I hate it so much.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 5 days ago
yikes! Sounds almost like the same person TBH. telling everyone whats in her package. Wanted to be like “Love, no one cares. get out of the damn way!”
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 5 days ago
I’m super pro MC but some of the clientele are so stereotypical. The stuff is meant to chill you out.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 5 days ago
So funny when a memory like this gets unlocked!! That would have been fun to see - the bolting out the door part, that is!
SituationCake@aussie.zone 5 days ago
Hmm that would have been a real dilemma. Don’t tell her about the car and let karma do its thing, or rid yourself of her presence by telling her about it so she leaves the shop. I dunno, I may have just stuck it out and let the car get towed.

I 💖🤣 Rae farty. Winner of the 2024 Tragedeigh award
and I bet Malibu was named after the booze, not the place
retirement? are we at the time yet when people can’t afford to retire?
Miss Seagoon is already getting annoyed with melbs, already two fake delivery attempts since she’s been here
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 5 days ago
Oh god I didnt even think of that! “Mummy why am I called Malibu?” "Well one night I got loaded off the stuff and your daddy decided to sneak one in at the back of the houseparty before he drove home drunk. And THATS why I named your after booze.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 5 days ago
Malibu. I bet it’s actually MehLiebooyh. You know, to be special and unique.

Pensioners taking up valuable time and space are the bane of my existence. Yes we should cherish the elderly, but they should have some awareness.
Malibu is a bad name. That is all.
Duenan@aussie.zone 5 days ago
One of the worst is when you’re behind them when doing grocery shopping.
I got stuck at Aldi behind someone and by the time they had paid and sorted their stuff out, aisle next to me had been through an entire rotation or 2 of people at the cashier while were stuck with one elderly person.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 5 days ago
Yep! Buggers have got betwen 9-12 to get stuff done, and then again 2-5. Not in anyones way, no stress if you make a mistake or something. Like. WHY do it now during lunch time? just dumb.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 5 days ago
The oldies are alright but they do like to man handle the meat and discuss its potential in the supermarket. I prefer just to talk to it.
Oooo you look good. Would you like to come home with me? Ok. Toss into trolley.
