    In an attempt to be more social, I engaged in small talk today.

    Her: We are always so busy.

    Me: Well it is a growing industry.

    I was getting a haircut

    I am pretty sure I heard what cringe sounds like.

      Me: Always.

        Someone: Oh, you got a haircut?

        Me: I actually got several thousand hairs cut

        Or me: To date, probably hundreds, actually

    So I finished my two day training for very complicated accounts a week and a bit ago, then immediately went on planned leave. Ten days later, today, I’m to be dealing with these accounts and I feel I’ve forgotten everything.

    Before starting I was exceptionally, surprisingly nervous like my heart was racing, crazy nervous energy. I was thinking holy shit I’m actually terrified.

    After a little while it dawned on me though, before starting work I had a strong large coffee like usual. What I did not do however, was drink any coffee during my time off. I was flying off the walls with a caffeine buzz and confusing it with pure terror about these accounts.

    Day went fine. I dealt with said accounts without drama, quite a lot more energy expenditure as lots of new ideas etc. but it went it well!

    I keep finding random golf balls around the block down here. Yesterday found about 15.

    A neighbour just keeps hitting them in. I really want to know which one so I can hit them back lol. Not the safest thing to do though.

    source
    • SituationCake@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      Arsehole neighbour. Could easily hit someone, bad enough for adults but imagine they hit someone’s kids or pets?

      source
    • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      just put them in a box on the front nature strip so people can take them

      source
      • SaneMartigan@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

        Nah, then the local asshole might restock. Better to give them to an op shop or driving range.

    I went on the train and used my new earbuds to listen to an audiobook. 😊

    No more sitting ruminating and ending up in a negative emotional mess

    • imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      I am listening my way through the new recordings of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld. Not read them all before so this has been a nice way to get through them. Getting close to the end now and it’s been lovely. Highly recommend if you want some whimsy.

    Feeling so low.

    spoiler

    Usually I’m really good at compartmentalising but I’m just not doing well with an old friend’s death. And scared about Melbcat’s nose. Worried about becoming a sad sack and alienating the people around me.

    Today has been 3 months since I jumped off suboxone.

    In that time I’ve more alive than I have in a decade. There’s too many things to list, too many “first time in 10 years” but I’ll list the 2 most important.

    1. laughing properly

    2. endorphin rushes from listening to and making music.

    It’s been hard but worth it :)

        That’s really kind of you ❤️

        It’s been a hell of a ride so far. It isn’t often almost everything about you changes.

    oooo I needed that bike ride

    also the tape I picked up.

  • tombruzzo@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    Been feeling the throat, bridge of the nose, and eyes today. A few people around work have been feeling sick so I’m hoping it doesn’t get worse.

    So no bike in this morning. If I’d been riding already I’d deal with it, but I feel like things need to be perfect to get back into the swing of things.

    The days are so nice now, though. The morning ride might suck, but the afternoon ride will be very pleasant. I need to just get on it.

    Today was a new Vegemite jar. That first swoop out of the pristine surface has a certain satisfaction.

    Oh dear… the gas heater is making bubbling liquid sounds and also sounds like a car trying to choke start. Maybe the fan?

    I’ve turned it off to be safe and am using portable electric heater for now. Might have to call in repairs.

    Goodnight everyone, I feel like I’ve been dragging my arse through this glorious day instead of bopping around energized after the weekend. Now I’m dragging myself to bed and flaking out. Love you all 💓

    There’s so much litter thrown around here. Not by residents but by rude blow-ins. Wondering if there’s any point to going out and cleaning it up.

  • Duenan@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    I tried Carl’s jr double cheese burger. Maybe slightly more tasty than Maccas but just as small and tiny.

    Not worth the money for it.
