I was thinking of attaching the pocket. I’ll just have to do it 5 times over.
And when will the handbag lobby get out of women’s clothing and just let them have the pockets they crave?

And I’ve figured out why those work pants I got were so cheap. The front pockets are kind of like jeans pockets where they’re on the inside and they’re really tight, and the one side pocket they have is only attached halfway down, the bottom half just flaps around freely.
These things would be annoying for someone on a job site that’s actually using the pockets on their trousers constantly, but it’s fine for me just in an office all day. The only annoying thing is that leg pocket can flap around when pedalling on the bike.

Had a bit of an awkward moment yesterday when I was helping someone with their computer. I realised the most recent document in their downloads was a position description and I also saw their resume pretty high up in the list.
If I can get a more private moment with her soon I’ll let her know it’s alright and her secret is safe with me

I think it’s the right way to go. Maybe trying to do it all at once might be a bit much, but trending towards eating less meat is always better

The Ugreen charger has arrived. It has been named Bernie after the robot from Wall-e due to its mild resemblance and we need to explain to the kids it doesn’t made sounds or actually do anything.
It’s also smaller than I expected but it makes sense, it is a charger after all

Once you have a suit guy educate you on good drip it’s hard to unsee

Then you’ll need to get a few things to charge with it; new phone/laptop/steam deck

They’re slightly faded black trousers so it almost looks like a dark navy. Not as bad as black leather boots with jeans instead of brown boots

You’re paying for all the extra robotics that goes into making them cute

You may not need another charger but look into the Ugreen Uno range of chargers/powerbanks/cables. They have screens on them to give them little robot eyes and the charger looks like a robot wearing headphones. It even comes with a magnetic prong cover that makes it look like it has shoes

Maybe a pink shirt on its own but dark blue jacket with pink shirt underneath is peak male look. I have a Suit Guy in Fairfield that advised me as such

Nothing better than actually knowing what you’re supposed to be doing at work

I knew they were talking behind my back, just like I know everyone’s saying I’m paranoid

No one has noticed my fashion faux pas of black trousers with a blue shirt. Do I keep working here because I can get away with such crimes, or do I move on because I can’t possibly work with animals such as these?

One great thing about this Rapoo mouse is it has a sideways scroll wheel. Tilting the wheel on modern mice doesn’t always work so it’s great to have a dedicated wheel again. Perfect for anyone doing a lot of work in spreadsheets or tables

I’m feeling better today but I’ll work from home anyway to help recharge

They’re fun once you get used to them. Probably the biggest thing is they’re very replayable since there are so many weapons and builds you can do

Fell asleep putting the kids down last night and woke up at 10pm. Feeling very Glugged now. However I did start a sorcerer run of Dark Souls and I can see how it’s the unofficial easy mode

Very nice. It will be good fun to play with tunings like patches on top of everything else

Feel free to message whenever. We could even book in time to have a ‘meeting’ and I can show you the results behind the scenes

There’s a samurai double feature on at Nova tonight. I’d love to go but it starts at 7 and that will just be impossible with where i live and dealing with kids. I watched one of the movies years ago and it was good so it would be great to watch again

I login to work this morning and there are 29 leads from over the weekend for a product solution that costs a couple of grand. I think i should be allowed to have the rest of the week off

I heard that’s the highpoint of the Paper Mario series. What are you playing it on? It’s on my shortlist of games to emulate through Dolphin when I get around to it

Everything went great, pretty much as expected. These were the ads I made to look like marketplace listings, they absolutely popped off. They’re also what gave me the idea to upgrade good ads to lead collection so we can get more out of them

Those sorts of indicators make sense. Essentially saying what the place is without giving away the name

I also wanted to check some analytics to see how things I set live right before the break went. I certainly wasn’t going to login and check in my own time and it was the one thing I was looking forward to so i didn’t want to ruin the anticipation

That’s how i felt about this time. Even though it was for her birthday it wasn’t anywhere super fancy. I have a place in mind for valentines day I’d keep as a surprise. For this one I kind of wanted to tell her but I think she wanted it to be a surprise
- Comment on Discussion Thread 🍉 Sunday 11 January 2026 5 days ago:
This is part of it, I think she wants to keep it a bit of a surprise. So I think it’s also about balancing out what she wants from the experience as well

Do you tell your partner where you’re taking them when you’ve made dinner plans?
I booked dinner for my girlfriend’s birthday last night and she was asking me his much she should dress up, how far away it is, etc. I felt like I wasn’t supposed to tell her but I wanted to just say where because it was a pub nearby, not super out of the way and extravagant but a nice place.
Maybe for the big special occasions you can keep it a surprise but sometimes I just want to say “I booked here, you can look it up and check the menu if you’d like.”
