Melbourne

Have a look at this beast. It looks like a hearse.

My little one airbag car is beside it. How safe do you think I feel? And yes that's my blurry finger. It's hard to take quick pics in daylight.

It's HOT TAKE THURSDAY and because I've been saving a few I'll go first.

Secret Santa, Bad Santa, Kris Kringle whatever you want to call it, is just another form of gaslighting. Eg.

Soap do I smell?

Candle I said I liked one particular candle once

Chocolates an after thought. Nobody really knows me

Wine or other alcohol great everyone thinks I'm an alcoholic. Do I drink too much?

Organisers of kk we are one big happy family bullshit.

Also I had a great sleep last night. Just wanna rub that in.

Gotta make an Aldi run to get through Christmas. Yes, I left it late. Yes, I'm an idiot. Whats going to be quieter, Friday night or at some point over the weekend?

going to bed EARLY tonight. meteor shower at 3am.

I have a reason for my resting furious face today. Just went to my car and noticed the absolute cunt who parks his piece of shit Audi next to my car has opened his car door into mine and dented it. It's a tiny dent but on a brand new car I noticed it right away. He often keeps drums and other instruments in his car and he's likely opened his rear door all the way to get some shit out and hit it. I always make sure I'm in the middle of my car space too, I'm really careful with how I park in that space. Just an absolute dumb fuck act from him and no note left or anything. I don't even know what to do about it.. do I get it fixed somehow? Or do I just have to live with the consequences of this fucks carelessness with a dent in my new car? Made me want to put a boot into his door but I have to park next to this asshole.

Urgh.

I have Mr Seagoon's Christmas sorted. Some very big glossy art books on Altamira and Lascaux. We haven't found the time to visit so these books will have to do in the meantime.

Next b'day I'll design and make a nice cable alpaca jumper and jacket . Fine wool and classic cuts.

Flying out back home today. Gonna reach my house and surprise mfer my parents. Gonna be fun!

Oh. My. God.... I've just remembered I have an RDO tomorrow.

I have been writing out labels for my freezer packages and my hand keeps cramping. I have no idea how I managed to handwrite everything when I was in school, I have completely lost the ability to write more than a couple of sentences at a time.

Flies wouldn't gtfo out of my house and I can't use flyspray so had to kill them manually. That's the fastest I've moved in... a while.

I also swept a bit, did a wipedown, moved bags of litter, and emptied litterboxes so I'm going to be in pain tomorrow.

I think someone mentioned the Potato Gratis from Aldi and I was there earlier getting a Christmas Pudding so I grabbed some. I hope I got the right ones. I might try them tomorrow.

arghhhh I slept with a fan in my face and my mouth open and now I am full of dust and sneezes

Ok I have tried over the past few years but never really stuck with a skincare routine.

I used to have oily skin but now it's somewhere between dry and oily as the day progresses. Currently here is my routine:

AM:

• cleanse
• sunsdreen

PM:

• cleanse
• moisturize
• retinol

I just got the retinol a couple of days back and the advice online was to use it every 2nd day at the start to avoid dermatitis? So I might do that. What else could I add to my routine or do I just stick with this for now?

My goals:

• get rid of acne pigmentstion
• get rid of acne scars
• get nice n dewy skin

Oh I also have terrible whiteheads on my nose - what do?

Slept terribly last night 😭 I was still awake at 3.30am. Team Christmas dinner tonight and company Christmas party tomorrow night, I'll be crawling to the weekend.

Life’s little annoyances: splurging on really nice bread only to discover mucking great holes running through it

Anyone got recommendations for an affordable dentist? Very concerned I may have developed periodontitis (as a 24 year old because I've not been able to afford dental care most of my life), and need a check-up and quote to deal with it

I ordered a turkey buffet, estimated size 3kg. Which is a bit big for me, about 2kg would be better, but a small amount extra for lunch meat is no big deal.

I just got the confirmed invoice with actual size on it - 4.37kg. I can't remember whether the one I picked was frozen or fresh, but I'm really hoping for fresh so I can cut it in half.

Looks like the crepe myrtles are gonna finally go this year. Just popped today

Last few years have been shit and I have no Idea why. With a bit of luck they'll return to their former glory.

Please turn away, Turkish towel gripe again…

I have looked everywhere… Well, just about everywhere. Gone through the bed box. This is making me insane. I have a vague recollection of taking it to Uni, but forgot they supplied towels and therefore didn’t use it. Fanged it to Coffs for a night. Hotel also provided towels… Always double/triple check when I leave a place.

Ever so slight possibility it could be at the alterers, as I considered getting the tassels removed… But that’s maybe a stretch.

Going to look in the other car boot…

Gyaaaahhhhhhh!

Well bugger. My friend invited me to a late night celebration tonight since we haven’t caught up in awhile but I didn’t get much notice and right after I treated myself to a massive burger and had some red wine to end the day.

Note: I’m a lightweight when it comes to alcohol.

Don’t think I’ll be driving tonight. :(

I hope that lasts me until after the holiday rush for groceries!

Pakige has been sitting in the Mellbourne depot for a week. The chance of it ever arriving is fading. I imagine it sitting in a corner somewhere, abandoned and folorn. All those rolls of stain ribbon inside, that set off filled with hope on their exciting journey overseas to start a new life, slowly being overtaken with despair and hopelessness. It is a cruel, cruel world.
