I HAVE AN INTERVIEW NEXT WEEK

HOLY SHIT YESSSSSSSSS AHHHHHHHHHHHH

So everyone had a shitty sleep then.

At least tomorrow looks like a normal day, then a couple more days of this bullshit.

Back down the bellarine..

Flower patch almost full tilt:

drained and the week has only just begun.

Next door to me is selling up, and they spent the long weekend clearing out the house. Including putting an elderly and derelict vinyl lounge suite out on the footpath, but no-one took it. I've just watched a compacting rubbish truck eat the whole lounge suite - impressively loud noises.

I had the strangest dream. I was in a room with people and we were all hooked up to some kind of device.

We had to have our body temperature lowered to the point of freezing so we could survive what was about to happen. I think we were supposed to phase through the floor and go somewhere.

We were all sitting on what looked like a kids adventure playground set.

There was someone with me, someone I cared about (but don't recognise in real life), she tells me it's going to be OK and I have to do this.

I have a lot or trust in this person, maybe even love, but I can't remember much past this point. I start feeling really cold.

We had to go through with this. It was a life or death/end of the world scenario. Something bad was going to happen if we didn't all do this.

God I love dreams.

I had a good sleep. The fan was less than a metre from my head so I think that helped.

Tonight's wave:

Do NOT look at your super account. Not that you're supposed to anyway.

This hill will either make me extremely fit or cause a heart attack

Blergh to this weather.

I got maybe 2 hours of sleep and now I'm wide awake. Was it the pizza? I don't know. I'm chugging water to see if it helps.

E: that was some very poor sleep with a conga line of unsettling dreams - including having my mother snooping around on my laptop while I'm pretending to sleep and trying to see if I've sent in forms to stay in uni longer. what

Also various natural disasters, erotica gone wrong, slips and falls... note to self do not eat a whole pizza before bed

Good morning. Checking in to the woke up too early crew.

I slept for around 10.5 to 11 hours last night. Must've had quite the sleep debt.

I reckon it was someone on here who recommended Talon to get rid of ants, ages ago. That stuff is magic.

Last night they were mounting a full-blown invasion of the kitchen. This morning, not a sign of them.

What a day! After telling the boss I wouldn't be able to come in early to beat the heat because I had to get Miniest to school, Miniest refused to attend school because I "woke her up wrong" (!) so I had to leave it to her dad, knowing he'd probably not do it either (it sets off my anxiety in the morning to argue, ruins my day at work and I've had my threshold of that shit) and got there earlier anyway. Everyone was like "thank god you're here!" Worked like a Trojan in the heat and smashed through the work. I think I'm getting used to it, just as the season is about to change lol.

Then I finished early, discovered Mr P couldn't take Elder to his appointment due to illness, and bussed home to get him. I only had time to wash my face, replenish my deodorant and change my shirt before we bussed out to his appointment. I felt sticky yucky and itchy! Came home, ordered dinner, put the bins out, reordered as the order was cancelled and tidied up a bit. Mr P had a dental appointment tomorrow but couldn't remember where because he didn't write it down, so my MIL and I worked it out. Dispensed her eye drops (she needs nightly eye drops and can't do it herself; she calls it Eyes on Call, but I'm rather partial to the Royal Eyeing Doctor Service). Talked to the kids about how we're going to wake up in the morning and who's getting who to school, with added pep talk and motivational barracking, had a shower and now I'm laying in bed feeling like I forgot something.

Is anyone else in a shitty mood from the weather?

Need to remember it's Tuesday, not Monday. And I may be a day out the rest of the week

What up

Getting pretty damn bloody over this heat, it's brutal out there. Drank so much water and barely needed to pee. Gonna need to chug a lot more now as I'm undoubtedly dehydrated.

Another long day of it tomorrow and then I need to catch up desperately on my desktop work, and then uni desktop work... I'd squeeze some in tonight but between the heat and bad sleep I'm just going to take it easy and try to wind down rather than keep myself up on a screen

E: the exhaustion has just hit me like a freight train holy crap

Back to work. The transportation experiments begin...

Turns out if you are almost never in the sun for very long it's definitely possible to be vitamin D deficient in summer. At least that's my theory -- feeling whiplash at the mood turnaround after resuming supplements a couple of days ago.

It's getting chaotic here. Just need to concentrate on one little area at a time and keep on at it.

It's pretty warm but getting stuff done 👍

Sorry, just an awful day.

one of the main newspapers I used to read , the washington post, has just gotten so bad I have lost all faith in it. This was the paper that brought down nixon

now the internets is becoming more insecure, I'm finding it hard to trust

i just want some real facts i can trust so i can understand the world around me

and I'm moving house, which is a long term good but a short term pain ,

i miss my friends overseas so much 😢

maybe a rest then a cool shower then some me time to refresh myself before I keep at doing stuff

my mastodon was hacked in one day, lucky there was nothing in it
deleting it now deleting the proton accounts I will be moving gmail later then deleting

I hate mastodon and instances so much , they add so many layers of complexity , I can't even fucking log in half the time

this is the first time I've been hacked and know it

ffs, false alarm. mastodon spat the dummy with the vpn
