Had a late one yesterday and no energy for cooking anything so took myself out to a sit-down brunch for the first time in a while. I remember why I don’t do this anymore. So expensive and small servings. At least the coffee slapped, I’m feeling human again.

I made it for a new year party and it was a hit! So going to impress different friends with it.
Here’s the recipe I use. I don’t bother with the cream topping for a pie I need to transport and want to make the day before eating, and it’s still very nice without it. But I’d do it for a home pie. And there’s usually some leftover cream filling you can eat on its own.
Last time I did a biscoff base instead of Oreo like the recipe calls for, this time I’ll try the Oreo.

What a shitty week. Work finally done, going to go for a walk to soak up the last of the warmth. Then I need to make my chocolate pie for a friends dinner tomorrow, will have a beer during to make it more fun. THEN I can relax.

Yesterday was a terrible anxiety ridden day that I wish to forget so going for a morning walk before getting stuck into work. It’s perfect out.

The rain has stopped and the sky is the prettiest I’ve seen in a while

I just picked up $2 that I found on the floor. Would you do this or did I stoop to a new low?

I got bitten by a spider in my sleep a couple nights ago. I haven’t turned into Spiderman (yet) but the itching is crazy. I tried applying vinegar on the bite, which is what happened to me growing up when I got bitten by mozzies. It worked a bit but doesn’t last long enough, have just purchased something stronger from the pharmacy.

I’m in a t-shirt and pants this morning, and to my surprise I noticed a lot of jumpers / coats being worn on my way to work. The only change I’ve made so far is from shorts to pants, and it’ll be shorts weather again by this arvo.

At least you give some details, that would have been enough for me. This person gave me absolutely nothing except her name and company, and it’s not someone I had ever dealt with.

I receive a call.
Person: I’m [name] from [company] Me: What’s the purpose of this call? Person: I can’t tell you, first I need to confirm your identity.
You call ME and can’t tell me why you’re calling until I divulge my personal information? I told this person you can say something very generic about the call reason just so I can confirm you are who you say you are before I hand over my PI, but she refused. So I ended the call. This approach is just ridiculous.

Motivation was 0 today but I vacuumed and mopped, dusted, cleaned surfaces, cleaned bathroom, changed the sheets and washed the old sheets. My house really needed the reset.
No way I’m cooking after all that so out for a souvo & beer.

Was thinking another beach day to round out summer but the current temp in Geelong is 23.9 whereas it’s 34.7 at Essendon Airport. That’s a wild difference.

I usually snooze once or twice before getting up. Some days I have a phone scrolling session in bed which is a terrible way to start a day, but I’ve been working on doing that a lot less.

I had no idea what the movie was about or even the genre going into it, thought it was a thriller, it was not. Made me squirm in parts but it’s a good movie and Demi was awesome in it.

Haha not really, perhaps someone in this demographic set the office temp to Antarctica.

I came prepared with a jacket today! Me - 1, freezing office AC - 0. Feels ridiculous wearing a jacket when it’s so warm out.
- Comment on Discussion Thread: Tuesday, 11 March 2025 2 weeks ago:
Yep, one or two days of warm weather is fine but however many days in a row it’s been now, too much. Hot nights affect me the most. Also, it’s a constant battle to keep my place cool.

Nice outdoor searing area! With that lovely garden bed to look over. I see a fire pit too.

Sandwiches, especially with toasted bread.

I’ve received 0 drops of rain and it looks like the rain band is dying out. So crap, my garden is tinder dry.

Had a beach day yesterday after barely going all summer. Sand, sun and ocean waves fix all problems. Also perfect temp yesterday and barely any breeze. And caught this amazing sunset. Followed by best sleep I’ve had in weeks.
I want to go again today. Wish ocean was closer.

Drama at the gym! Two guys going at each other, loud yelling and thought it was going to turn into a fight. Others broke it up. That’s the first time I’ve ever seen anything like that in a gym, it’s usually a happy place.

Great find! My bike is from that same store in Prahran, bought many many years ago. It’s a good store with high quality bikes.

I feel deeply uncomfortable going to this funeral today. I really hate funerals, but it’s about being there to support a friend.

I’m so cold in the office today. I dress for the temperature outside but the air-con in this place is ridiculously strong. Plus there’s a draft exactly where I sit as well making it worse. It would have to be under 20 degrees in here. It’s nice right when you come back from outside, but not so much once you’ve cooled down.

I made breakfast, lunch and dinner at home while WFH today. My usual approach is not to clean up after each meal and leave it to the end of the day. By the time I’ve finished making dinner and eating, my kitchen is a bomb site and takes a loooong time to clean up. It’s a real drainer. Trying to save money not buying food out as much but that means the kitchen mess multiplies. Thankfully no cooking at all tomorrow, I’ve got enough leftovers. I need a break!

Ewwwww, this I do not miss about working in offices. My co-working has a separate unisex toilet, I use that. So do a few other people, and the ventilation is quite poor in there, so opening the door sometimes comes with a smelly surprise.
