Melbourne

Recruiter messaged me. The director wants to meet me next week!!!

I work with a bloke who I disliked from day 1. Don't know why. Something about him irritated me and I couldn't get past it.

Today I realised why. He looks like Dave Hughes (hope he's okay given his injuries)

Shit! Cat lounge has broken window.

Today I have misused my executive power to put googly eyes on the shredder.

They all think I'm mad but are too polite to say so.

Thank you all for the well wishes on my presentation. One part went well but the other did not. I got some useful feedback though.

Now I will be watching the new Naked Gun movie from the comfort of my couch. I've been wanting to go to the movies for a while now, but I cbf.

PSA seen on the other place: check public transport seat for needles.

Interview done... lasted less than 15 minutes but felt okay. We'll see what happens next.

Do I want to cook, or do I want takeaway from across the street?

This is definitely a heater, bathrobe and doona on the couch evening.

What a week, just finished working. I’m exhausted. Well deserved pint & burger before I head home.

Hi witchy! Let us burn all the fake op shops and unleash the numbats of DOOM. I'll put the kettle on while I darn this ~~cock~~ sock

Cheers all 🍺

This week has flown by. Been super busy at work. Miniest got accepted into her choice of secondary school! (Big yay). She's also being allowed on her first school camp ever 😳Mr P got himself some new false teeth and now has to get used to them. Have been watching one of my personal favourite online communities (Imgur) become enshittified and have been looking for an alternative. There's just nothing quite like it out there, and I had my little community there, but now everyone is scattering. Fuck you medialab ai.

I'm not going to the beach today 💨

Gym done.

Nap and lunch done.

Just have to re do the cabling (joy of joys lol) and the great zonk can begin.

Tonight it's just practice and video games but tomorrow night I'm heading to an event called:

Divorced Dads Grunge Night lol

Can't wait to see what it's like.

Edit:

You're right Gibson. A 2nd nap is a great idea.

I’m so fucking buzzed off rehearsal last night!!!!!!

Plus I got to play a real drum kit and yeah, the electronic one is great but the real one is fucking amazing.

Apparently I’m going to the gym today then that’s me. I have to go and re-setup all my gear from last night so joys of cabling here we go.

Second interview this afternoon with the guy who didn't like me too much the other day and the business HR leader. Then weeeeeeekend!

my groceries are getting expensive, I notice there have been many price rises of 20-30%

from now on I'm printing out all receipts to keep track

tho looking at my pantry and fridge I am well stocked up , I could probably eat for 2-3 months and only buy some fresh fruit and veg

For later

Just warning you all that Imgur front page is full of NSFW and boobs as a protest, in case you want to specifically avoid that kind of thing.

Bewildered that the local pub was booked out at 6pm today. It may be a Friday but I thought it would be like most pubs where they're dead that early on. Good thing I called ahead to confirm or we'd be turned away.

The kids came home from childcare the other day asking if they could go to the pub because they asked their nana what the building was. I thought we'd just be able to rock up but I guess not

Made it down the beach last night. Ended up building the 'puter. No mishaps. Certainly the fastest thing I've ever used.

Ended up going w/ win 11 ltsc. So far so good. No bunch of useless shit on there straight out of the gates.

And it's quiet even at load. Can hear the second hand of the clock in the other room when it's idle lol.

Only hitting 50c after an hour of prime95 which is wild. Obviously didn't bugger the thermal paste.

Now have to reinstall all the audio things which takes for ever.

my god finally a sunny day in perth. can't wait til it starts regularly cracking over 20, i am so TIRED of this winter!!!

I’m entirely ready for the weekend, but Friday keeps getting in the way

Last night, I woke up after only four hours of sleep, and then an hour later, dog started vomiting whole pieces of his food. Then I started to fall asleep, and had a nightmare that I was being held at gunpoint. Really great sleep. I have to give a presentation today. I think the lack of sleep was some kind of subconscious stress or the decaf English Breakfast tea I accidentally drank before bed.

I timed my lunch break just in time to get rained on

Friday's here!
