Sales rep flies over from another state and comes into the office this morning “oh, hi Spin! I’d give you a hug, but I’m feeling a little under the weather”, it took me all in me to just go “uh, sure” and not scream “DID WE LEARN NOTHING FROM COVID?!” Then I remembered that she’s from regional WA and probably didn’t.

Have a mate living in Perth (moved there from here a couple of years back). Heaps of people there are convinced our lockdowns had military in the streets enforcing the rule of the law.
StudChud@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Lol!! The only people in the streets at that time were the anti-vax protesters iirc 😂😂😂
Catfish@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Police. Had a friend stopped at something like 2am walking his cat, was wearing a clear shield not mask when that was still ok

Eagle@aussie.zone 1 month ago

SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 month ago
It actually lifted really quickly (like by 9am), but then just a couple of kms up the road it was still soup at 10am!

I do wish the cat would stop trying to eat my glasses. Probably my fault for getting them in iridescent bug colours.

I just picked up Le Fay by Sophie Keetch and it’s written in an old timey style without being overly pompous or purple. Immediately I was just like, ‘hey, I could fuck with this.’ As long as it doesn’t get too slow I think I could read this one.

StudChud@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Had another blood test yesterday, and this time it bruised nastily. Gave myself the shakes yesterday when I took the cotton thing off lol. Had to get partner to put a bandaid on it for me lol 😂
Animals I can deal with, but myself? Nah, nope, no way, no bueno
Catfish@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Opposite! I can’t leave things alone. Pick, poke, & prod even when I Know it’s the wrong thing to do.
Eagle@aussie.zone 1 month ago
Lol, feel you there. I’m a nurse. Working in the community no less, which is the worst of the worst. Can deal with pretty much anything related to someone else. When its me? Hell no. Can barely remove a bandaid!
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 1 month ago
I lucked out and hurt myself too many times over the years because I’m unco.
I can deal with erryting except hitting my funny bone then I cry.
