Back from interstate yesterday. Attended a lovely wedding Saturday night and kiddo had an awesome time with his nana and uncle. Flight was amazing too, to my great surprise. But my god flying with a baby even one who is being chill is a whole lot more work than I expected.
what did you get?
smashing the teas which seems to be helping so far. Oats for lunch was a strange call, but made me feel heaps better.
split system? Its more efficient to turn it on when its cooler outside than wait for the house to warm up.
pretty confident I got a stomach bug. 0 outta 10, would not rate.
Someone was hit at Parliament. Someone was also hit earlier on the Pakenham line.
When I was a little kid, I grew up with stories about a family friend who would drive into the city at the crack of dawn and eat his breakfast whilst watching traffic bank up on the Monash. I guess it just wasn't the "done thing" back then, so my grandpa must've thought this guy was pretty clever. I was just standing at the window waiting for my tea to brew and staring out at the city and caught a glance at the freeway. That family friend has passed on now, years ago now I think. And the little kid has grown with a little kid of his own. And I stand here and look down at this city which frankly doesn't seem to care. One day my son might stand here and contemplate his existence. And the memory of the man eating his breakfast will be long forgotten. The city might look different then, but I still doubt it will care.
What I'm trying to get at is... actually, I'm not sure.... If anyone can figure out the point of these thoughts let me know. I assume the takeaway is to appreciate the time we have?
doughnuts, here to save my afternoon.
Its not just ABC. History wont look kindly on how western society ignored the plight of the Palestinian people for fear of pissing off Israel.
Adoption process was too easy. We went to the cafe back when it was a think. Went to see cat X, who wasnt super friendly. Our backup option was VERY friendly. We were asked a few follow up questions and then away we went. Took him home then and there.
The only reason I bring up a pair is because they said cat 1 was totally ok by himself and didnt need a friend, but within a week it became apparent that wasnt totally accurate. We got him a friend, but she isnt totally into him. We would have been so much better off with a bonded pair from the get go. 2 cats is a lot easier than 1 some times.
If you do go see them, tell them Woodro and "Tuesday" say hi.
https://www.neko.org.au/ these guys were FANTASTIC. Both mine are from there and I couldn't recommend them enough. if you have your eye on one bring a carrier with you (one from kmart is totally fine) and chuck a blanket in it. They feed them (or used to at least) Royal canin, so if they still do with having that at home along with the essentials (toys, bed, food bowls, water dish/fountain).
Read the profiles, but know they arnt always 100%. If you are in a position to take a bonded pair its totally worth it too. They are social creatures.
Taxes... leave a lot to be desired
Enough said, really.
The shitting thing is that I woke up and checked the metro page preying for an outage so i didnt have to get out of bed, it was clear so I got up only to sit on the train for nearly 2 hours.
Got metro’ed hard this morning. Been on the train and hour and a half and I’m only just at the halfway point.
Planning to resign within the next month and it cannot come quick enough. Thinking another sickie between now and then too.
then call this crap out. You got nothing to lose.
Coffee was so good I'm pretty sure I made my O face. I definitely moaned. 10/10 has saved my day.
think you might be underestimating how oblivious some folks can be though.
I want to get one of those star projector things, Seems like it'd be a lot easier.
"Sorry mate, can you phrase it a different way? My brains a bit slow today" make it out as if its your fault.
Oh nice, my neighbors have volvos and bloody love them! So much so they brought the exact same car in a different colour.
