One person won the 150 mil, and still went to work today! I would have stopped working immediately. Call in the morning, sorry Iโ€™m rich now bye. Actually, an email.

Soooo when a road that people live on gets closed for roadworks, are they meant to like... tell the people that live on it? Because the first I'm hearing of them ripping up and repaving our road is when they parked a gigantic machine in front of our driveway at 7am that's making an absolute shit ton of noise. The housemate has a car that nobody told him he wouldn't be able to take out of the driveway either...

It's not on VicTraffic, they never put anything in our letterbox, and the council's project construction page says nothing's happening in the area

I usually get a letter telling me they're doing road works of some sort in my area. I can't remember who they came from though.

My pavement gets ripped up seemly every 2 months. Sometimes itโ€™s gas, sometimes telecoms, sometimes fixing the mess the last lot made. Never any notice and they block the only way out of the building.

I was wondering why I wake up in morning with a body battery of 10% and sometimes 90% (according to my watch) even though I get the same amount and quality of sleep.

So I'm doing experiments and found it mainly comes down to night snacking. The more snacks and/or closer to bedtime equals lower body battery in the morning. No snacks equals higher body battery in the morning.

Interesting. I will keep experimenting.

I've worked what I want for my birthday. A microphone. One that's compatible with the pioneer. The best of the best because I'm worth it.

Bit bummed that covid means I've had to give away my ticket to the Arsenal women's game tonight. Boo.

Pretty sure I'm meant to be working hard, I have a lot of things to do, but instead I'm just aimlessly staring out the window or refreshing my feeds. It's been a long week.

Just had the MMJ convo with a Candor doc. Got prescribed some strains. Asked for three to be passed to TGA for approval.

Curious to hear about your experience. My appointment with Dr Bhangoo is on Monday morning, not sure what to expect.

[โ€“] StudChud@aussie.zone 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Be honest about previous use, and how it helped. What you're struggling with, that MC can help with. They ask questions but nothing super crazy.

For me it's a rather simple, and even pleasant experience talking to them.

I basically spewed out my life story including those things in my online nurse chat so that's no problem recapping that stuff

I finished watching Invincible, can recommend. Slept thru FOTR .

Let's talk snacks. My favourite quick snacks:

Hot pockets
Sao, butter, tomato, cheese, p&s Jatz/topz/ritz/savoy/ butter, Salmon & lobster spread/anchovette spread/Vegemite
Jatz/topz/ritz/savoy/ butter sardines
Jattz/topz/ritz/savoy butter and pate
Cruskits butter, smoked salmon, cucumber, sour cream, fish roe.
Popcorn

I'm sure there's more. Can't think right now. What's your favourites?

[โ€“] SituationCake@aussie.zone 4 points 6 months ago

Iโ€™m basic and lazy. For meals I like to put effort in, but snacks need to be instant. Fruit, slice of cheese, nuts, crackers, biscuits. If Iโ€™m feeling particularly energetic I might have a carrot with some dip. But I donโ€™t faff around with making carrot sticks, just slice on the diagonal and dip in. I actually think itโ€™s better slicing like this because more surface area to scoop the dip.

I binged Fallout in 2 nights. Iโ€™ve never played the game so I have no comments on its authenticity, but it was a fun escapist watch. Built up the mystery in each episode to keep me clicking Next Episode.
