I got dark and cold awfully fast on the way home then the rain hit.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 10 months ago
2 people are probably going to quit in the next month or so.
And so the cycle repeats :(
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Damn homey, you’ve got shitty luck with workplaces it seems. Hope this one pans out at least, or something better comes along.
melbourne_wanderer@aussie.zone 10 months ago
read that as “damn, honey” at first, thought you were getting sassy.
Duenan@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Hopefully not many more follow on from that.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Hopefully.

Exit row, window seat, winning
Duenan@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Melbourne will welcome you back with its horrible weather with open arms!
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 10 months ago
It’s… Beautiful…! 🥶
dumblederp@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Exit row, middle seat is my jam. Window and the fuselage takes up some of my space. Aisle and the drinks cart (and people) constantly bump into my shoulder which pokes into the aisle. Exit/middle and I’ve got plenty of leg room, I don’t get bumped and I can get up for a wee without bothering anyone.

Hellll yeah!!! Have a safe and comfy flight!

Pretty awful day to be out and about but it was made bearable through teamwork (can’t believe I said that). I might do some work from home tomorrow and see if the cat can be enticed to enjoy some lap time on the oodie. In fact, I might do a bit of that tonight if I feel up to it… sox was remarkably affectionate when I got back and even did a bit of lap sitting in order to furiously headbutt my gloved hand. I suppose she must love the hand that feeds her the treats 😁
Duenan@aussie.zone 10 months ago
I’m glad she’s warming up to you again, did it always take awhile for her to warm up to you?
just_kitten@aussie.zone 10 months ago
When she was younger and she lived in the same apartment complex at me she was pretty chilled out even on the first day, though it took her longer to get comfy enough for lap time.
This time around she’s started off hot but then gone a lot further. I guess there’s not much else for her to do in this tiny apt either…
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 10 months ago
She’s settling in fast! Cats struggle with change but she knows she’s with someone safe
just_kitten@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Yes, I don’t think she was too happy at all about having to move and was certainly upset about it at the beginning. But I think food and warmth trumps a lot of misgivings and she definitely remembers me now even though I’m not in the same place.

Being a sook tonight. Pizza is on its way then sit and read in bed.
Lame.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 10 months ago
I hope everything’s alright, but sometimes you need a sook to get it out of your system
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 10 months ago
And home safe and sound. Home in about an hour. Then feet up with beer and a game I haven’t been able to play because I didn’t bring my laptop to perth

It was a little cool down at the beach today. A jumper and slicker was not enough.
There was a pair of masked lapwings and that swan followed me until I left the area.
I found a squishy glitter fish fishing lure and a bunch of fishing line which I picked up and threw in the rubbish
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Hai beach friends!!
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Bit too cold for a dip right now… but maybe nice for some fish and chips or a thermos with a hot drink
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 10 months ago
it’s dark here now, darker than in the city.
sometimes I bring a torch down to the beach and walk in the dark 😸🌌
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Thankyou for your beach cleaning endeavours 🙏🏻
Catfish@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Have removed something the approximate colour and consistency of a pea from my sinuses. Ouch.

SituationCake@aussie.zone 10 months ago
I feel cold, even though the heating is on, and I’m on the couch under a blanket. I hope I’m not getting the lurgy thats going around.
Taleya@aussie.zone 10 months ago
I saw someone complaining about whitewashing spartacus and was like…you do realise the dude was essentially bulgarian, right?
StudChud@aussie.zone 10 months ago
People are uneducated. They hear Spartacus was Thracian and have no idea what that means 🤦♀️

Hmm petrol prices jumping up 60 cents today. Seeing 209.9c for unleaded.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Thanks for the heads up!!
Duenan@aussie.zone 10 months ago
No worries!
dumblederp@aussie.zone 10 months ago
I’ve had split pricing near me for a few days now. 157 at one and 209 at the other, both Ampol.
Duenan@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Hoping I can make it till payday before it jumps back up again.
fingers crossed
just_kitten@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Oooh shit going up that much again? So much for oil prices coming down or whatever. I’d better fuel up, I’m down to 30%. Thanks for the heads up!
Duenan@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Yup yup, about half the petrol stations have gone up from what I can see on petrolspy.

I rode to work today, which meant I had to ride home. But weather like this is never as bad as it looks once you’re out on the bike
TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 10 months ago
The aftermath, with wet socks, can be unpleasant.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 10 months ago
It’s not the best when you get home, but a quick change into warm clothes makes all the difference
StudChud@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Yes sir! Sir? Moving out! Orders received! Unit reporting! Unit ready! On my way!

I’ve gotten myself into the habit of going to bed after 1. Even when I try to go to bed earlier I find myself faffing about and staying up until then. I need to try force myself to go to bed earlier and break the cycle
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 10 months ago
jinx. I was just thinking the same thing.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Try going to bed at 12:45. Don’t look at the time once you are in bed. Do this until your body gets use to the new time table. Repeat.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Thanks. That’s the way to do it. Go to bed a little earlier and get used to that. I’ve been thinking I should just try lay down at 11
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Tired today. Woke up too many times. Going home early.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Hugs. Do you have a going to bed and going to bed ritual? A favourite ambient music song you play at bed time can help.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 10 months ago
I like to read for a while before bed and listen to a science fiction story on YouTube as I fall asleep.
Just going to have to accept it for the moment.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 10 months ago
Same. It was the matcha I drank at 4pm yesterday.
Hang in there.

Got down to the garage and in the car before I realised I still had my slippers on. Great start
