Presentation went AMAZING, best one yet. Lots of questions and discussions during the session which is exactly what I want. And a possible new client that came to the session has already emailed me. That’s how it’s done!

Started getting a sore throat yesterday but I thought it was because I didn’t drink much water. Boy was I wrong. Woke up with a migraine, fever, chills, bodily pains and of course, a way worse fucking sore throat. Hopefully I can recover faster than I did when I was sick two months ago because I have to do a presentation in five days.

I’m definitely coming back as a cat
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 1 day ago
How bizarre. I slept overnight for a few hours, and then spent the time from 7am to 5pm mostly asleep. I really hope it isn’t COVID and it’s just today I’ll be like this.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
what ever it is take care and get better real soon , hugs
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Thanks 🥰
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I’ve decided to buy a phone tripod and make lame social media videos playing covers.
Will it be a waste of time? Absolutely.
Will it be fun? Depends if Gibson makes a star appearance lol
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 day ago
As long as you have fun doing it!!
tone212_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Another presentation today! My last in the tour, feeling a lot more positive than I did on the day of the last one. Mindset is currently - going to kill it.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Hell yeah you are!!

How she did not laugh at the antics of the others I don’t know.

Can someone help me reset my password please? 🥺 Currently only have Lemmy on my old cracked screen phone I’m not bringing out with me anymore
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I think this is a job for @Nath@aussie.zone
Nath@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I can absolutely help with that. But not from here.
I’ll get into this when I get home in a couple of hours.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Work from home tomorrow then Friday and Monday off. There’s something going on at work where they’ll pay for us to go to the museum so I think I’ll take them up on that for Sunday
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Where can we find these jobs that pay us to visit a museum?
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 1 day ago
It’s something my manager just offered me out of nowhere. Something about being able to cover the price of tickets with the company budget
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Too nice a day to do admin and emails inside so grabbed the laptop and relocated to the park. I cannot describe how good a decision that was for my little burner out brain. 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞

THE SAND IS SCREED
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
this is for the paving?
To me that job would be so overwhelming I’d have to break it down into steps.
Taleya@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Ayup. Nah the screeding is the easy part.
calculating the slopes and digging all that shit out then dragging up, grading and compacting by hand all the fucking road base was the hard part.
Chunky concrete placement is puzzle time. And I’m fantastic at spatial relations and tetris :D
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I think back to a year ago when I was dealing with the old job. I wanted to try get into recording again around the grand final long weekend but realised I had to make moves to try get out of there. Things have been good with the current job and I’m talking some days off around this public holiday without any plans so I might try get into things again
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Recording music?
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Yeah, I put down some riffs I was thinking of doing something with. I was thinking I could structure some songs and rerecord and layer until I’m happy. But I figured it was better for me to spend my evenings putting in for jobs instead
StudChud@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Dragula is a great trashy show. Drag queens bitching each other out and being all sassy and witty, while designing horror themed drag outfits. I didn’t know I was a fan of this subculture until now
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Also a banger of a Rob Zombie track - www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqQuihD0hoI
StudChud@aussie.zone 22 hours ago
It is! I love that song 😂
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
sounds like happy people having fun, what’s not great about that :)
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I have whipped and snipped some edges and the tallest clumps of grass in the backyard. Now my arms are feeling a bit wobbly. Not sure if I’ll do the mowing today or tomorrow. I should do a bit more cardboard/mulch application and start on planting vegie seeds, but my motivation is very low today.
Taleya@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I keep going out and looking at the area I’m gonna pave, checking all the supplies are ready to go and have to keep reminding myself that I can’t start it now it’s the middle of a bloody work day
Taleya@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
so much decluttering
a whole suitcase worth of clothes and a big box of books
feels bad to get rid of good clothes , that’s my past poverty talking
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 1 day ago
It is better to give stuff away then have it lying around unused. I can’t wait until this weekend. Planning a big declutter!!!
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I’m spring cleaning and decluttering too. On the good days I’ll do my usual everyday chores then choose something extra. I call this my bonus. It might be cleaning out a cupboard or organising my sock drawer depending on how active I feel.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Friday is my cupboard sorting day , this is extra :)
this house is so easy to look after, such a relief after the last place which was a nightmare
for example, the last place was super dusty because the carpet was really old and degrading , this place has mostly wooden floors and new carpet, it’s easy
SituationCake@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Can’t sleep club checking in. Also thankyou Melbaboutown. Yarrabyte seems to be chucking a sickie again.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 days ago
present
and thank you Melba 😗
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 2 days ago
Yep on both counts.
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I’ve had a lovely breakfast - my favourite local cafe does not skimp on the number of 🍄🟫 in their omelettes! - taken my library books back and had my hair cut. All to the good
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 1 day ago
There’s a very distinct smell outside from certain trees. 🤮
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 day ago
🎶Oh the sprog trees will blind the weary driver…🎵
Taleya@aussie.zone 1 day ago
ahhh it’s all happening I’ve ripped out the corner cabinet, painted down the hardiboard waterproofing, fitted marine ply to level the floor, plumber tomorrow to fit the new shutoffs, detach the brewery piping from the kitchen and put in a new trap for our dishywashy, Monday sparky comes to fit socket for dishywashy and then we install dishywashy. Meanwhile, I have Friday-monday off as well as cup day so I’m FINALLY GONNA FINISH LAYING THAT FUCKING CRAZY PAVING. and His Lordship shall complete the pointing on the back wall, paint the side wall and start work on the cleat wall.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
sounds like a plan 👍
Taleya@aussie.zone 1 day ago
but will it execute? Let’s find out!
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 day ago
“Panel needs replacing on a car? Going through insurance will run it at $2200. Skipping all the paperwork going straight through me will be $1100. However, if you want it done on the weekend, cash in hand, let’s make it $800.”
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Still got the big red boat? It was a fun looking car.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Nah, had to move that car on a year ago. It was beautiful, fun and entirely impractical. I’ve now got a little zippy hatch. Compromised on the convertible by getting a sunroof, lol.
Nath@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Cash economy is strong. I’m moderately sure my first few employers were paying me cash but not paying taxes/super etc. I was a clueless teenager getting cash envelopes and didn’t know better. I’m probably owed a couple hundred dollars in super from each of them.
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I need to find that guy! Trying to get a replacement door for mine and they all want to go through insurance and charge bajillions.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I’m sure I can pass on the deets if you’re around the Moorabbin Airport area!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
good night everyone, sweet dreams. 😙
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 1 day ago
What up, what up
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 2 days ago
I’ve missed having a modded console to mess around with.
I just love having complete control over a piece of hardware. If it’s yours you should be able to load whatever you like onto it.
