Hey bruv. Listening to Lovage, smoking vapes and drinking.
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I’ve got two of those down.
Watching a movie with my son and my daughter is outside chatting with a potential beau.
I’m about to stand in the driveway and stretch whilst holding a sword.
Yeah…I have swords (inherited)

The glorious day continues!! A lovely walk in the sunshine with cute doggo sightings, finally tried the bakery/pie outlet around the corner and it was cheap AND delicious (including some frozen party pies for this weekend), champagne is chilling in the fridge and I am sah ready for the EDC weekend!!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
sounds wonderful
and I might go for a walk too 🐱
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Don’t push yourself too much, but it’s lovely out there!
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
House to myself this morning, so I stayed in bed until I could no longer stand it. It was freaking wonderful.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Love those days.

It’s obviously impossible not to be biased, but Delta absolutely nailed it this morning at Eurovision. I think only Denmark got close to her vocal skills. It’s a tough field but I’m all in on a podium finish for Australia.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
The performance was solid, stage and costume very sparkly, but I found the song bland? Probably just my personal taste, but I find Delta bland in general. Nice to see Australia progress though!
Pilk@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
It’s definitely not one of the “fun” songs… My pick for fun would be Greece for sure!

I’m getting a bonus at work I wasn’t expecting with how the company as a whole went last year. I’ve decided to bang it into super since I wasn’t budgeting on it coming through, and at least this way I can keep 100% of it, even if it’s not actual cash in the hand.
It just makes me think about how lucky I am I can put some surprise extra money away like this and I’m getting a bit of extra side money from trivia and Coffee. It also helps fight those conservative brainworms looking at your pay and seeing you only get 2/3 of the bonus because the rest gets taken out as tax.
Pilk@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
at least this way I can keep 100% of it
The taxman still gets his share unfortunately.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I’ll get more than if it hit my bank account at least

my brain has decided to migraine today
So I will just try to do easy things and no beach.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Hope it resolves quickly
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Thanks. Coffee is helping immensely.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Bugger. I’m supposed to be driving to Melb for work today and the car won’t start. A bunch of scary error lights are lighting up instead.
SituationCake@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Hope you got it sorted!
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
All good for now. The problem was the battery, so the car was started and I’m now in Melbourne. It will be a coin toss as to whether it’s going to start again, so I’m going to get a new battery today.
I was a bit concerned with all the warning lights. I think the voltage drop from the failing battery triggered sensors to detect non-existant faults, which also stopped the car from even trying to start. So it didn’t try to turn over and fail like I’m used to with battery issues.

If anyone here sees Tangy Pickle Twisties in their local supermarket for less than $5 a bag, lemme know, I will literally drive across the city tomorrow to stock up. They taste like the OG Maccas Shaker Fries and I. AM. OB. SESSED.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
ok …lol
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Well I did done fuck up. Assumptions and failure to measure causes flat pack furniture to not fit. Going to need a Frankenstein solution.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I always measure 47 times to make sure things I buy are going to fit.
And I still manage to get it wrong sometimes, especially if there are clearances for opening doors or similar involved.
Catfish@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
This is one of those over the loo arch shelf things. Utterly unflushable unless raised 3 inches. Fits perfect every other direction. Gah!

Bunnings stock a bunch of different furniture feet/ legs that might help?

TheVoid can be called as a ref 🐈⬛ (really, but I doubt that’s a thing)

nearly finished setting up my new phone
Just entering stuff by hand and uploading and reregistering apps . Also writing a lot of things down in my note book.
going through all my Mandarin apps, Traditional and Simplified, and calligraphy. I used to have such a huge vocab! It will come back. 🙂
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I was looking forward to being home at 6pm tonight instead of my usual 7pm, but of course traffic decided to be horrendous and the trip took 3 hours, so I’m only just home now at 6:30. Today really didn’t like me.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
sounds like you need a 🍺
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Not on a school night!
I have to be up early for work tomorrow, so no 🍺 for me.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I can haz internet again.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
The battery turned out to be even more expensive than anticipated, as the auto stop/start feature needs a more expensive battery to power it. But apparently it still had the original battery, which makes it 7 years old so I really can’t complain. Plus 56% of my driving is currently claimable as work km, so the battery is 56% tax deductable!
The technician was much better than the last one, changing over the battery efficently and doing some sort of mysterious communion with the computer that is apparently important. Mind you, it wouldn’t take much to beat my last experience with having a battery changed, which involved a guy who was very shaky and I think hung over. He took about an hour trying to fit the battery unsuccessfully before figuring out it was the wrong size battery.

Car batteries are $$$$$. This is karma for me being happy that my service last week was not very expensive. Oh well, at least it’s an easy fix.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Wild they missed the battery being on the way out if it was just serviced. Lets hope it was just because it has been colder in the morning more recently
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
From my understanding of car batteries, which is not a lot, you should test them after a certain time (I think it’s 24 hrs) because if you’ve driven the car/van it will obviously be charged. I think (again?) if it’s under 12.3 (?) then you need to replace it. I really should listen more.
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I don’t think the guy I took it too was big on the checking of potential issues like that, I think he just did the basic service items. Or he could just be uncommunicative, it’s hard to tell.

Welcome to today: a cat has barged on the sofa. Specifically a white bit.

And it’s wool so I can’t use oxy spray. WTF do they put colorants in pet food anyway?! Grump
