Melbourne

It's so purdy

NEW CAR DAY

And I'm out ☝️bowled out by a covid ball. I had a good innings though. Just gonna rest up and try not to cough a shit out.

Had an attempted break-in last night. Bit of a worry.

There goes my sleep for the next while.

Someone came into the office today with a fairly nasty cough.

They were asked to go work from home about 15 minutes later.

They started protesting 'But I'm already here and it took me an hour to get to work!!'

The absolute fucking brainless audacity of this moron....

The DT hath spoken. I shall request extra pay.

I'll get a day-in-lieu anyway because I'm working cup day. Noice!

Patted this seemingly friendly boi while visiting a friend (stray/neighbourhood cats are common in this country), he was enthusiastically rubbing himself all over me and enjoyed being picked up by my friend, but once I scritched his cheek he loved it for 2.5 seconds and then flipped a switch and gave my hand a very deep chomp that literally struck a nerve 🥲 went to a GP just to be sure and got some oral and topical antibiotics.

I have been having shit luck with cats here this time which is sad.

jeeeesus christ I got fisted by freddy work-wise today.

I'm gonna eat a wheel of brie in the bathtub

Halp. I haz hit a wall.

Send coffee, pls.

So last night's attempted home invasion has brought me to bringing a golf club to bed. I have chosen a 5 iron.

But seriously worrying about this shit was not on my 2023 bingo card.

So I'm now in the process of working out how much paranoia is healthy. Like do you set up a little random timer for a light(s), a camera would be pointless after the fact. The motion sensor out the front works but wasn't a deterrent.

Rationally, statistically it's not common. Seeing it first hand is making me irrational.

So tired. I just want to sleep, but I have work tomorrow and Saturday, 10am start and 8am start respectively.

Penalty rates or a day-in-lieu? Decisions decisions...

I'm so tired of trying to be positive all the time. There's now actually a genuinely shitty attitude bleeding through because I can't seem to be treated respectfully or catch a break.

It's been a bad day.

Haha fuck me.. I ordered uber eats IMMEDIATELY FORGOT that I did and went for a nap. The notifications from the app somehow didn't wake me up.

Edit: decided fuck this I'm going to the pub

Playing around with the vplates website for a laugh (I can't see me bothering with custom plates) and this is available for someone who wants to express their road rage through their plates:

Well i feeling down and couldn’t resist therapy shopping and eating wven though it makes me feel awful that I’m spending money when I’m trying to save.

I’ve spent the last of my money on chicken wings and a pack of half price kranskies to drown myself into oblivion over the coming days.

Definitely feeling the new job fatigue today, and having "oh my god this is real" anxiety.

oh god oh god oh god oh god.

To quote:

Can you please send us a screenshot of the "Hostname" you are referring to?

....Why do I have to explain to the support team for networking equipment what a fuggen hostname is?

Me: yooo support how do i change the hostname on this AP

Someone get me a fork.

Bloody hell, this COVID fatigue thing is a bit naff isn't it. Got the kids to school, now I just want to sleep for a few hours.

market jam doughnuts have been obtained 😊

Went for a night cruise to get better acquainted with the car. I had concerns that the subwoofer wasn't doing much but once I jiggled with some settings and found the right music the bass came to life big time. She rumble. Also, I'm not sure what dark magic controls the headlights but it was able to use auto high beams while behind a car without high beaming the car. Technology is rad. OH and speaking of.. adaptive cruise control in this thing allows going all the way to a full stop which is nuts. I was using adaptive in the USA and when that got below I think 28 miles per hour it just turned cruise control off.

Happy bull is happy with car.

The metro tunnel stations are absolutely unreal. The dusty old city loop is really gonna look so much worse than it even does now.

Got my hair cut by a different stylist. Do not like my hair cut now. Lesson learned 😢

My neighbour is out trimming their tree on the fenceline. Which is a good thing, but a bit confronting as he is on a ladder and can see directly into my lounge room. I will have to try not to do anything too embarrasing for a while.

I have a slight suspicion Tommy’s sabertooth tiger Halloween costume isn’t entirely convincing
