Melbourne

Interview 1: Not too bad I think.

Interview 2: Not enough tech knowledge sadly.

Meeting set for 10am tomorrow about police check with General Manager.

2 interviews to go.

Edit: Interview 3 went OK I believe.

Interview 4 has been postponed.

I can't concentrate today. A close friend was in a bike vs car (cars fault) yesterday. They are still in hospital but ok -multiple fractures and chest trauma but could have been much worse. I spent yesterday babysitting and helping out and I thought I was ok but I keep getting the shakes today. I feel silly. I need to concentrate but I keep thinking about it.

Hug your peeps my peeps.

Today I managed to finally get ahold of my step mum and found out my dad was ok and I finally got a text message from him.

I guess with his recent illness it’s really taken a toll on him.

Anyway I’m glad to hear from him and just told him to rest up.

In other news my clothes smell like curry from when I made it last nights.

A present from my man

Nervous about the meeting tomorrow. Can't stop thinking about it.

Going to have an early night I think.

Hopefully will have some good news tomorrow. Hopefully.

Goodnight everyone ❤️

Getting up this morning? I'm agin it. You have permission not to. I'll sign a note for your bosses saying so.

Today sucks. Have been feeling crappy all day, and feel like I barely had a break over the weekend. Suddenly I understand the hatred of Mondays.

A rare weekend where I avoided all social media and the news. What happened while I was gone?

There's something about someone burning their kids alive that makes me supportive of eye for an eye punishment.

heads up we got some rain incoming. The forecast looks considerably worse than it did yesterday. And we are gonna get wet tonight by the sound of it.

Spoke to my friend who got hit by a car. She's still in hospital and in for a big recovery but it could have been a lot worse. I'm so relieved. I just don't understand how someone can sail out onto a roundabout and clean up someone right in front of them on the roundabout (who also has right of way). I really like being on public transport more and more.

My dental checkup this morning led to two fillings as well. One of them is just a fairly short term fix and I'll need to look at a crown when it fails. Tomorrow I have an appointment with the dental surgeon, who will be removing a broken tooth, before doing two implants in a couple of months.

I've been saving up towards all this for a while, but the money is going to be disappearing very quickly. The decision to sign up for extras on the health insurance again was definitely a good one - stretching the timeframe for getting the crowns over a couple of years will mean I'm getting more back than I have paid in premiums for at least 3 years, four if the filling today lasts long enough.

Gratitude thread.

Got my uni results and even though I could've done better, I'm proud of myself for getting through despite going through a breakup. I'm sad I let it affect my results, but grateful that next semester, I can wholeheartedly focus on turning those results around, hopefully drama-free, with no one to disturb my peace :)

I guess we all slept well last night ....

Mid day yawns are killing me right now. Had a solid night's rest, waited till 9 to have my coffee...to no avail.

Absolutely dying for a nap, but have meetings all afternoon.

Stupid cozy clothing.

Kids are so dramatic. Kid in the waiting room flipping between screaming tantrum and smiling happy.

Ugly jamless Monte Carlos.

Got to witness the birth of a bogan-mobile over the weekend. Some neighborhood teens were trying to install a f off exhaust on a red p plated commodore.... with a hammer. I REALLY wanted to roll up my selves and jump under the car with them and go "right, lets get this bastard on. Then we're tackling the sub and installing the LEDs strips under the dash right? Also if your headunit isn't already multicolored LED we're ripping that out too!"

I'm up! Again!

weird ass dreams, dreamt i met famous people and i was intimidated so acted like an ass , doesn't matter if they were asses first

note to self, just remember, be gracious and have good manners , even if other people are asses, which most people aren't

Clean doggo has been given couch privileges - invite only, hopefully...

Yesterday was bleak. Hangover and new illness all hitting at once. Feeling better after a good sleep in. Taking the day off otherwise - without sick leave feels different, no work no money is the sucky part of being self employed.

3 chairs done , now I have a system it's doesn't take too long

Had a mate sell his first car recently. He is in his mid 30s now, and yes it was a toyota. Sad day for him. I decided to look up my first car's rego. Loved the shit outta that thing, sold it probably 12 years ago? maybe more. It was utterly ruined when I sold it! A combination of its previous owner, age, high km and a young 20 something me living his rally fuckboi fantasies in it. The rego was cancelled jan this year. So it went on to be driven (or at least parked and rego paid) for another 12+ years. Cant believe it! The quote I got to keep it on the road 2011/2012 was $10k. I sold it for 2.

Im a bit heartbroken. I coulda kept it going way longer than I thought.

Wonder if I can order the number plate and just shelve it for now till I can one day stick it on a WRX?

Ugh! My bus to work this morning smells like it's been used to smuggle rotten garlic and onions.

damn, dog walk took longer than anticipated and now I have to drink the coffee I just made in 5 mins. And Miss Meow will have an early lap eviction.

Edit: success! Made it to the dentist spot on time.
