ted has a new cat tree, he has chairs and soft beds, this cardboard box lid on the balcony is his favourite spot

Sounds like normal cat behaviour to me

Slowly working down the moving checklist. Power & gas connection is organised, and mail redirection done. I need to look at insurance, which is a bit of a nuisance as my current policy ends 3 days before the moving date. Removalist is the next major thing to organise, and then lots of lots of address changes.
I looked at NBN yesterday, it looks like it has FTTP installed already. That will be good, as Iâm looking at getting a Ring doorbell and some security cameras. Money is just flowing from my accounts like water at the moment!
Countdown: 1 week from key collection. 1 month from final move date.

No big surprises itâs music and cat cuddles this evening.
Iâm doing some work over the weekend but itâs actually fun adjacent, so itâs not too bad.

I just opened Excel and the columns now use numbers as well as the rows. Formulas need to be written differently and now row number goes first instead of column.
What is going on? I feel confused, I feel sick, Iâm dizzy, am I smelling toast?
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Try the cesspit that is ânew outlookâ. Fucking yuck.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
New Outlook isnât terrible for me because itâs just the web version in its own container. However, you canât select which keyboard shortcuts you want to use to itâs a no from me.
But completely changing the way cells are labelled and ordered, now thatâs unforgivable.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
I usually roll with change, but threw a bit of a tanty when my computer forced that update⊠until my boss pointed out I could toggle it off. There is nothing positive about that update.

MeanElevator@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Refund or replacement time?
Taleya@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Fun fact: I have actually worked as an LCD repair tech. I opened the case up and thereâs some suss as shit crap in there - the pressure plates holding the LCD layer to the light panel were not outside the metal plate at the back of the whole shebang, but jammed between them. Which is quite hard to do without opening the case and rescrewing them. So it looks like a very dodgy refurb.
Everything else works, so itâs just a 22" LCD screen neededâŠI think I shall hit up a mate and then absolutely fuck over this ebay seller.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
All the exciting things Iâve ordered lately and the first thing to arrive has to be the mop bucket. Still, it is a very nice mop bucket. And it has wheels, so it can roll with me as I move around the room. Plus itâs in a nice bright hazard warning yellow with âwet floorâ warnings on the side, so Miss Meow and Mr Woof will know to be careful. Although it would probably be more useful if I actually had the mop.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
itâs traditional aussie custom as per Lennie Lower to tie fluffy cats and dogs to poles to make mops
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
be more useful if I actually had the mop
Technically mr woof and miss meow could be used as interim mop heads.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Technically. Mr Woof had a bath yesterday, so I guess it should be Miss Meowâs turn. I suspect if I tried it I would end up with many claw marks.

yeah, today I found a dead penguin washed up on the beach. Called wildlife services and they said this area has loads of penguins and itâs a natural event. Poor little guy.

I think I have an ingrown toe nail. Hurts like a mf.
TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Get thee to a podiatrist asap! Trust me, they are brilliant at sorting out ingrown toenails. Which have a genetic component but are made much much worse with ill fitting footwear. Speaking as someone whose toenails started to grow into tubes during my 20s, and still do if I mistreat them. My podiatrist kept my feet functional for a long long time - far better than any doc ever did.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
If itâs just starting you can wedge a little bit of cotton wool underneath the corner of the nail to lift it clear of your toe, which will allow it to grow out normally.
If itâs a proper ingrown you want to douse it in Betadine and get to the doctor. Trying to do things yourself can be an infection risk
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Thank you đ I had accidentally clipped the nail too short and it broke, then I stubbed my toe. Didnât think anything of it until it started being painful and gross over the past few days. I canât really see if itâs ingrown, so hopefully itâs just beginning.
kruetz@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Hereâs hoping the school down the road will have a barbecue going early tomorrow when we go to vote đ€

Pah! Last election my local election booth had CAKE STALLS! I will have first dibs on the first passionfruit/cream sponge I see! Plus sossiges of course but compared to a nice passionfruit sponge ⊠no contest!
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Itâs a great way to raise money, I donât know why more places donât do it.

I have one literally over the road with sausage and cake stall. Itâs a good day for democracy
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
My local polling areas donât have anything đI have been known to visit a neighbouring suburb in the electorate whoâs local school knows how to do it right and vote there. Sossig and cake stall, come to mumma!

Iâm going to the one my kid is working at purely to embarrass her.
Sheâll be working for the greens. đ

Iâve already eaten sausages on hot dog buns.

Back in the day (mid 90s, Saturday night) my local night club was The Grand Hotel in Essendon. Where was yourâs?
P.s. Friday night was Shooterâs in Glenroy. $2.50 drinks.
TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
The Chevron in St Kilda Road! Also the Croc, the Parkview, and the Dan OâConnell. But just about any pub had live music on Fri/Sat albeit of varying quality and volume back in the early 70s. If you could be bothered, then the Three Weeds on Plenty Road often had good bands just starting out.
calhoon2005@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Dan OâConnell for St Patâs. They used to use the little park next to the pub for a band (the Australian U2 Experience I think) and outside drinking. Cheap Guinness that got cheaper throughout the night. I remember getting $1 pints at about 2am as they were trying to finish off the supply.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Iâve been to the Chevron!

Just reading about the poor woman who was found in the water down at point lonsdale yesterday. So sad. Looks like theyâre searching the back beach right now with 3 choppers again so maybe someone else was with her that they couldnât find yesyerday :(
Such a dangerous beach.

Managed to squeeze in a real full-body massage that had me being knelt on and every last knot massaged out, every finger and toe and every muscle in my shoulders and even my eyebrows got a massage. Ahh, bliss. I can sleep well tonight
melbaboutown@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Oh shit, is the election tomorrow? And the ballot has to be completed on or before it? Even with the constant spam texts that snuck up on me. Iâve been really sick for weeks.
I guess I just do it tonight and mail it tomorrow, and hopefully even with the weekend it arrives within 13 days.
Alamutjones@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Iâm having a quiet night in watching the footy, as Iâm expecting a busy quokka filled election day. Bought a salad and a Woolies quarter chicken and settled in.
Also bought Masters spearmint milk, because thatâs A Thing over here apparentlyâŠand itâs legitimately great? I donât understand why we donât also have minty milk?
RustyRaven@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Iâve started off with removalist quotes by getting a couple online, hoping for a rough ballpark figure. One was over twice the cost of the other. Accidentally including a trampoline in the list of things I am moving may have had an impact, although the total m3 they estimated was roughly the same. I almost added 35 outdoor umbrellas to the list on the other, due to resting my finger on the touch screen, but fortunately realised before I submitted it.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone âš4â© âšweeksâ© ago
very early breakfast for Ted, who woke me up by walking up and down my body
heâs been on a diet too, lost so much weight, he must be real hungry to wake me up
so hugs and half brekkie for the little guy who is not so round anymore đââŹ

I would like to hire the shiatsu kitten alarm clock please
Catfish@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Unfortunately shiatsu kitty often comes with enthusiastic amateur acupuncture
RustyRaven@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Miss Meow did much the same, along with head butts and a lot of meow. She is also on a diet, but I donât think she is losing enough weight. She is already convinced she is starving to death, further reductions will not be taken well. At least she is well fortified for the stress of moving, if she decided to hide for a couple of days and not eat it would probably be good for her.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Alfie has definitely lost weight and itâs nice because heâs running around the house more, he seems to be feel much better. But the other night after his dinner, he wouldnât leave us alone, SCREAMING as if we hadnât fed him. Little beast. To the point boyo was wondering if weâd actually fed him. Alfie is an excellent liar!
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
We have to announce âthe dogâs been fedâ otherwise he tries to scam another meal from each of us.
