Nothing like some midnight floor mopping because you put it off all day and have an apartment inspection tomorrow while you'll be in the office and you hate having people in your apartment while you're not there but you have to go to work because you have to present a demonstration to the executive leadership team.
Meeeeeanwhile, I'm seriously considering moving out and just going to stay with my folks for a while. It's not about money (although it would be nice to save a bunch of money quickly) it's more about how unhealthy it is for me to sit alone in this shoebox. Plus I'll have to house/dog sit for them for their upcoming US trip this year anyway.
Then once I've saved a bigger chunk of dough I'll finally bite the bullet and buy something. Likely right before the housing bubble finally bursts after 30 years of people saying it's going to but never does.
I have an interview for another volunteer position this Friday. I can't believe I'm finally leaving call centres behind, and I'm actually on the path to something I want to do. For so long I've been forcing myself into jobs that ruin me, and then I wonder why I fail.
In exciting news: 2 hours after arriving at work I'm done with my presentation and I'm on a tram home. I might even make it before my apartment inspection AND the presentation I was going in for tomorrow fell through so I don't have to go back in.
From today's wikipedia - I have to salute whoever wrote the article. Superb use of understatement.
Mad honey is also thought to help with erectile dysfunction[4] and increase sexual performance.[5] Most cases of mad honey poisoning are experienced by middle-aged men.[24]
Massive day today. Worked non stop from 7:40 to 3:40 including a whole lot of new shit and new requirements to my job that, while making a lot of sense and genuinely good for service delivery, involve a level of mental load/energy that's... not exactly what I signed up for. I need more training and preparation. It kind of happened so suddenly that I didn't have time to formulate a response, and ask for reasonable accommodation/support. I'm definitely willing to give it a go and see if it improves things, but I just really didn't need that extra burden this week ๐ฃ
Anyway... I then had to go help a friend out with some things and ended up having a long chat in the car, really was good to unload but I ended up really exhausted and emotional. Despite my pledge to cook more at home and save money I gave in and ordered the two-large-pizza-plus-garlic-bread special at my local for 37.50. I'm reminding myself that it'll be enough for dinner tonight, brekkie tomorrow, dinner tomorrow and maybe even lunch the day after. Thankfully lunch is catered tomorrow at some training thing I gotta do. I'd really rather catch up with work but it's mandatory training so oh well...
I'm thinking after I come back from my break I'm gonna have to ration out my energy a bit better at work in terms of in person interactions. Might need to start requesting one day from home even though I genuinely want to work away from home for the work/life separation - I'm just gonna be really exhausted with all the masking and social interaction.
After a couple of years of self-imposed junk food ban I decided to stop for KFC on the way home. The electronic order board thingy had to be poked a few times before it deigned to take my order but otherwise worked well. But I noticed no one else that came in after me used them and just ordered at the counter. Was I doing the weird thing, or were they?
The wrap seemed smaller than I remember and much more cabbagey. The chips were undersalted and lacking even a hint of crunch. A bit underwhelming and I'll be happy to abstain from fast food for another few years I think.
IT guys are very busy. They should give me access to the website to update this form myself so I can just get it out of the way. I know what I'm doing, I've managed Wordpress websites before
How do you abbreviate 'breakfast'? I've seen cafes offer a 'big breaky' which I read as break-y. Others do 'Brekkie' which I seem fine with. And one place I saw does 'Breakki' which annoys me to no end for some reason.
said it before and I'll say it again: Spotify users have better taste than apple music users (even though I AM an apple music fan).
Nemo - Broke the Code, Joost - Europapa and Baby Lasagna - Rim Tim Tagi Dim have all moved into the global daily top 50. Wonder how far apple will be behind.
Mrs is channel surfing and skipped past โfarmer wants a wifeโ, when a strange thought popped into my head: good on 7 for getting some farmers laid. Working a farm is tough as shit, itโs not like you can go to the pub every other night. Country towns are often small, people couple up quick outta school. So ignoring the reality tv show aspect I suppose itโs really a net positive hey.
Tried to make an appointment with my GP. On their website, they had a notice that they were moving to private billing only. And trying to pick a date- next appointment available is 27th May.
So tech question Tuesday.... You know this 3g turn off thing? My MIL has a Moto G8 plus (which the specs say supports LTE), but Optus keep sending her emails through her account saying that it will not be supported going forward ... They list her phone specifically as one that will not be supported...so VoLTE is a different spec than LTE?
On a side note/create my own discussion.
Realised I never finished watching The Sopranos
So currently binging the rest of season 6.
I realise how similar Ray Donovan is now.
