Just finished S1 of Severance. Amazing ep, great show so far! Probably watch one more ep before bed 🥱

yeah, it’s not bad.

Good news, it turns out Melbcat already had her Solensia at another place.
Bad news -
Cat medical
I noticed she might be having some issues with seeing. She wasn’t really looking at me or tracking my finger. She did seem to react to light and track a little to thrown cotton balls. But she didn’t react to my fingers hovering near her eyes and her pupils didn’t constrict when I shone the torch. Having been warned that the enrofloxacin carries the risk of blindness I brought her into emergency and it turns out she has some bleeding in her right eye. She’s not blind and the doctor said he thinks her retina is still attached but there have been changes to her vision. And he thinks it could be due to high blood pressure from her kidney disease. I thought it would be the antibiotic but who knows. They weren’t able to check her blood pressure due to her being stressed. (The waiting room had noisy fidgety dogs, we waited a while and she was separated from me for examination. They also tried to straighten her arthritic arm to take her blood pressure.) So she’s going into her regular vet to chill for a bit first and get checked out there. ___

Argh. Baby girl missed her Solensia. I got a reminder but forgot to write it down :(

Plugged away at some desktop work that I’d left to the last minute, didn’t delegate it though because I really don’t want to do any fieldwork when it’s 39C next week… this way if there’s not enough desktop work to go around next week, I can just use this week’s hours. But also super procrastinating on/avoiding uni fieldwork even though it’s not too hot today…
Connoisseur ice cream (tub and sticks) is half price at Coles this week. It’s awful for my health and my gut and dairy ain’t good for the environment but boy am I tempted with this weather coming up. I used to love Proud & Punch ice lollies but they seem to only have the ones with vegan ice cream in them now and like… no don’t mix the two up yuck.
Might indulge in a tub for home and the mini sticks to share at work.

I think I might get some headphones like this for the office. My work laptop only has USB-C ports and this shitty Jabra headset I have is only USB A, it doesn’t even have the option to just use the 3.5mm jack.
Dual bluetooth audio, and audio over USB so I can use it plugged in, because the laptop may have a headphone jack, but the hub I connect it t at my desk does not:
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 4 months ago
If you can use it plugged in AND bluetooth…get them. I got a pair of Sony ones that don’t the plugged audio. Bit of a shame, as they’re comfy as.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 4 months ago
These explicitly state they do audio over USB. I have some older Sony headphones and all they’re missing is multi device and audio over USB. USB C headphones are unfortunately such a mess and just because a pair can do it doesn’t mean it will work with your devices

I plan to get Soundcore Q45 which go on sale for A$150.
I have been using the A$80 Soundcore A40’s, with A$30 Soundcore A20i’s as a backup.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 4 months ago
The soundcores look good but I’m looking to spend a little less for office headphones. I’d be open to some quality soundcores when my Sony’s die for similar quality at a fraction of the price

Morning. I don’t know what I want for breakfast
Taleya@aussie.zone 4 months ago
Hot cross bun, slathered in butter and microwave warmed
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 4 months ago
I have been eating the same thing for breakfast for about 5 years.
Maybe its time for a change.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 4 months ago
I remember I started doing Yoghurt and muesli, figuring I’d find something better to eat for breakfast later. That was probably over ten years ago. I do mix it up occasionally though
