First coat of varnish is on the cupboard. While it’s drying I’ll clean and polish the rest of it .
today feels like a bunch of spiders trapped in a jar
I… I… don’t know how that feels, but I suspect it’s chaotic and awful and oh my god that mental image 😱
With a bit of luck they’ll eat each other.
The thought of that terrifies me for some reason.
It’s worse when your sinuses are the jar
I was not expecting clear skies, no wind and sun today. Especially after yesterday.
excuse me sir but we dont take kindly to bragging over here.
Well it was short lived.
Sorry, where are these clear skies you speak of?!
No sun over my side 😟 only clouds
Seems we have lift off. There’s a bunch of dudes here for the cameras and a bunch of other dudes here for the door frames. Because of that, I’ve been ejected from my spare room which I use as a kinda office. Today’s also the only weekday I don’t have anything happening (besides 1 phone call “anytime between 9am and 2pm”), so I was hoping to get some study done. A bit hard to concentrate when they’re going wild with the power saws.
The “case management practitioner supervisor” (I don’t know what it is, but I absolutely hate that title) is here (the tradies have to be supervised when they’re inside), so she ejected me from the other office to go do phone calls. So I’m just sort of floating around trying to find somewhere chill now
E: looks like I was correct about the security cameras. It’s a proper corporate style system. Featuring a locked cabinet with a UPS and a plexiglass shield over the monitor. Not a huge fan of that, I most certainly would not be having anything like that in my house, once I move. Feels kind of unhomely and a bit business or corporation like, but I guess it stops inside jobs, so that’s nice I suppose
I have a friend who lives in Sydney. She’s not really someone I talk about feelings to, but rather hobbies, and I would consider her to be one of my best friends.
A couple of months ago, I asked her how she found a particular artist we were talking about. She has a very diverse music taste and is constantly playing music. Ever since then, she sends me a song everyday, ranging from musicals, live performances and random stuff she’s picked up. I’ve never been exposed to such a variety of music. It’s a really special thing.
I wish there was some way I could repay her for thinking of me. I am so grateful to have a friend like her. I’m in awe.
Romantic love is cool and all, but platonic love is the shit. If I never experience romantic love again, I think I’ll be fine. Apparently single, unmarried women are happier anyway 🥹🤪
Single women live longer, are healthier and a lot wealthier than most married women. Married blokes live longer, are healthier and a lot wealthier than single blokes. As a species, we are doomed.
That’s so fucked 😍😍😍
not really we just gotta stop isolating and infantilising our men
we compromise by men dying younger
iow, the women are widows 😔
Can’t win them all :(
😔 It’s cruel
Ooh. Apparently the dodgy blokes for the gates are here too! At the end of the day, I may have a non cracked door frame, proper surveillance, and a closable gate
Probably doxxing where I work. People return charging cables at the place I work saying they’re faulty. They have usually a) pressed down on the cable when holding their phone in front of their face whilst charging, b) had something wrong with their powerpoints or something like that or c) are outright lying because upon testing the cables after returns, 99% of them are perfectly fine. Most workers just return “faulty” stuff to avoid confrontation. Someone returned acid wash pants because the colour had faded. They’re acid wash pants.
We have an accumulation of charging cables now. Maybe one for every team member.
F me this Brisbane hot liquid on a baby story is really making the argument to bring back capital punishment.
That’s disturbing. I hope they catch the bastard.
spose i better get this furniture redo finished
Hope nobody’s house is made of straw, or sticks.
To the bucket I lost, if you’re reading this, you’re always welcome back home if it’s a gale force sth. easterly I have kept your bedroom just as it was.

Pakige!
Lots of good stuff, a couple of returns. Now I am ready for stage 2: organising the bathroom cupboard.
OMG me pakige too!
Nothing exciting though, just a water bottle from Kmart cause my last one broke
They don’t make things like they used to. My current water bottle is older than you are!
Well Tbf, my water bottle was just a cheap plastic Kmart that was probably leeching 5g of micro plastics into me every time I drunk from it
I want a nice mwtla one, but I also hate filling my water up all the time, so I want a large one. But the last 3 I had all had the base split after being dropped a couple of times
Never had a bottle last past 2 years
me three
i got bottles and a coffee maker from ikea
Ooh, fancy
The wild winds tonight are stressing me out.
Geography quiz this week…
Love this.
I’m sure an italian would have a go at the pasta though.
the best thing about the new Rings of Power is it doesn’t have lenny henry
even with this improvement so much of the story/charactisation makes me either angry or exasperated
and they have persisted with keeping the audience guessing a bit regarding Sauron’s identity
and orcs have Cockney accents
but the show is so beautiful to look at
