Holy moly, I got a 92 on my last assignment. That is a pleasant surprise.

I've got some smell and taste back! 🤸🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️

Chef is sick.
Proof: 📃

Help yourself 🚚

Rejected for a job because I was basically too good (?), but they've invited me to apply for a more senior role coming up next month. Not really sure what to do with this information.

On the train last night some guy kept sneezing next to me without covering his mouth and now I'm sick.

I went to the office and let my manager know and she said to go home. Which was really nice.

Teams meetings all day tomorrow anyway, just didn't want to be away from work. The difference between sectors is dramatic.

Is the general experience today feeling tired?

Hullo from Auckland!! Spent the day trying surprisingly mediocre wine with a group of fun people from right across the globe! I am surprisingly exhausted!

I care so little for US politics and I am already tired of hearing about that train wreck, despite actively avoiding it. I can't escape it I figured it must be close to the election so I googled it.

We got another 3 months of this.

Today is dragging like crazy.

How is it not even 11 am? (Posting this at 10:50)

Office is less busy than usual toi

Miniest testing negative for covid 💪🏼 my test still very faintly positive. Mr P's test still strongly positive and he is spewin' about it. The first to get it and spread it to us is still positive, he really thought he'd be in the clear by now. But he's the oldest and a smoker, which I think must be a factor in his slow recovery? Ran out of tests so will have to test Elder when the ones I ordered arrive this arvo.

Edit: Elder minipeeler has tested negative! I'm sooo relieved!

antigratitude: i have a cold
gratitude: telehealth is freeeeee and i get a med cert so i get paid for being sick

I've caught the today-is-dragging-itis bug. Far out I'm soooo done for the day. Bleurgh. I have to do a stupid employee goals thing too. urrrghghvbggvbfgj

Also really sleepy as I was up late helping a mate with their job application. It was actually my dream job, but I'm not in a position to have such a big change right now... and I think this person is a better candidate anyway. Certainly makes me think of where I could be in the future though

Shout out to my goodest girl: the Staffy X Kelpie. I'm trying a new walking technique to reduce the pulling cause its all gotten a bit shit since kiddo joined us. She was always the better of the 2 dogs but with the new technique she had it dialed in within like 5 minutes. She was a nightmare on a lead when we got her so to see the progress she has made was just been awesome.

The other dog we wont be talking about here.

s2g if they wanted to fix the state deficit, put fucking ticket cops on chesterville road. The number of defects and speeding fines would buy us a whole new rail system.

At the reception for my CT and there is no one here lol.

Least I went private so I got an appt real quick, but it's like a ghost town in here 😱

Edit: nevermind, all done. I got lost but still got the scan 10mins before my actual appt time #winning

I was bangin 7 gram rocks, that's how I roll - winning
I have one gear: GO - epic winning

I dropped my phone in a public toilet this morning. I won’t share the gory details. I just thought you fine people should know.

I struggled to get home this afternoon. I kept wanting to fall asleep as I was driving home.

Made it home through had a wash then flopped on my bed and fell asleep until now.

I think my blanket last night was too warm for me so I’m going to change it out for a few days as it’s been warmer.

Anyway making some garlic bread now.

Hungry!

hmm, what does it mean when your site/capital improved value goes down in rates ?

So tired today so I took the day off. Allergies I think, my terrace is covered in pollen dust and my nose tickles as soon as I go out there.

I have a sore throat and a headache. Fun times. Plus side I guess is that I don't have anything on till this Arvo, so I can do a sleep in. But I got absorbed into a the YouTube "documentary" about YouTube drama. Oddly fascinating. Like watching a train wreck

It's nice to be able to dry stuff on the clothesline.

My headache resolved itself with a sleep. My sore throat regrettably didn't. I did too much raised voicing yesterday

I thought today was Wednesday. :(

I'd be embarrassed as hell if the talk of the Brisbane Olympics was US celebrities. Just saying.

To balance last weeks good luck getting third in line at the food market, today I got third last. I ended up with three parsnips so will have to do lots of roast vegie dishes. Also a leek and some potatoes, which would be much better news if it was still soup weather.

booyah

Had a wild dream last night. I went to the shops to buy eggs, but they only had fancy ones that were $60 per dozen. I declined to buy them

There's just something that hits different doing Duolingo with music in the background, the music dims when the Duolingo audio comes on and then when the audio stops, the music returns to full volume.

I think my parcel may have skipped a few steps here. Or did it actually teleport from Philips post office to Bayswater?

I... Did not realise they got Eli Roth to direct the Borderlands film... And they made it... PG13!!!!!????

I'm sorry, the guy who directed, produced, and wrote: Cabin Fever, Hostel I and II, and The Green Inferno, did a PG13 adaption of motherfucking BORDERLANDS‽

IT COULD HAVE BEEN AN R18 SPLATTER FILM GODFUCKINGDAMMIT

I want to get off this timeline

Pull chocks..
