Oh man I thought today was gonna be cruisey, and I did finish nearly everything by 1pm and stretched out my time at uni a bit, but being the conscientious idiot that I am, I decided to do one last work task when I got back to make up a lil bit of the 2 hours I was away (even though the deadline isn't due for ages and nobody's keeping track of my hours at this job)...

...what was supposed to be a quick half an hour jobbie spiraled into hours because there was a fundamental issue with the entire thing - like, someone's property boundary might be so off that either they or Council are in big trouble. It's way beyond my experience or pay grade, but I just can't let a bit of good problem-solving go...

At least it wasn't outrageous, I came home around 4:15pm and wrapped up around 8pm. Dinner, shower, bunch of tidying up, and now bed.

Also bloody hell, I think I do need a new chair, or at least reevaluate my seating height; my neck and back haven't responded well to wfh today. Alright, NO overworking the next two days.
