Melbourne

Buenas Noches all. I came here cos it was linked from the old reddit one which is alright sometimes but has some trollers. I see some names from the old lockdown days and pre-reddit "protest" purge. Hope you guise are all well.

Getting there! One bed's soil is fluffed up and looking pretty. Added some dynamic lifter too for good measure. Soil will subside a bit so going to throw on somefing on top and give it a another scratch before spring.

That bed has never been more empty. Feels good to have a clean start. Also felt good standing on that retaining wall on the right with all my weight and it didn't budge.

Cheerful morning people should be shot and fed to the early bird

When you are just trying to play a card game

Hearing one of the kids on the hockey team introduce his great-grandma to my son. Totally wild. My great grandmother lived 1867-1952.

I didn't even really get the grandparent experience as a kid, let alone great-grandparents.

Finally found all my micro USB cables, and a watch I've got looking for about a month or so.

My girlfriend will collect things up in a grocery bag and dump it in the front room, or even on my desk, when she wants to clean and feel productive.

Unfortunately that just moves a bunch of unrelated things into a bag together that becomes harder to go through and I lose things because nothing is in a place that makes sense anymore

welp, today I learned first hand just how hard it is to get vanilla slice custard off a cat

They got breakfast when i had a five am pee, but they managed to swindle a second breakfast on Friday so now they're being extra coquettish in hopes of a repeat performance

Google Maps vs Royal Parade

I wish I was able to do more stuff

Whoo, what a long day. Out to the city for movie, chat with friend, lunch at a HK cafe to satiate my cravings (Ovaltine! And yu xiang eggplant and you tiao), then sitting with my friend for hours of driving as she just bought a car and only recently got her licence and wanted to practice driving various routes including all the way across town... had a video call with a family member in between... I'm ready for bed now honestly. Also it's cold again. zzzzzz.

House is clean. Time to crank the amp!

Gibson got a new wand toy today, so let's see if she completely ignores it as usual lol

My kid and her friends encountered some cookers today so they stopped, read their little signs, had a giggle then as they moved on yelled "you are all a bunch of morons". ☺

Good mornin', starshine
The Earth says, "WAZZZZZUP!"

Just finished putting together one of those Kmart trolleys.
I feel like I've been stomped on by a troupe of tapdancers.

That's it! The heater is going on.

This will be my monument....

This will be a beacon when I'm gone.....

Cleaning the house top to bottom. It's a big place and it's so easy to ignore until it's too messy.

Not exactly exciting, but necessary

Get the openwrt core router working, taken apart and old school serial hacked a tplink to get the first WAP up and running, get it integrated, go to do the second one and...motherfuuuuuu i did not check the version number it is unsupported

whine leya want make mesh wi fi

Still not really anything done today. Lots of sleep deprivation related blues. But at least I went to the gym. We shall persist. There is another chance tomorrow.

So tired today. I only worked 2 days this week but they were pretty physical days and I'm knackered. Managed to get a load of laundry done and the kitchen cleaned. Forgot I've been playing nurse to covid sufferers this past week, which has been oddly stressful and emotionally tiring. I just feel spent.

I guess I have no plans, so I plan to drink thissss boiii

Went down to the Burnley Brewing taproom for their closing down takeaways sale. Filled my little 9.5L homebrew keg with IPA at $5/L and bought three cases of cans too.

Another eBay item sold. If my postage calculations are correct I am now $12 richer in money and one shoe-box size richer in space.

My sternum is sore.

Plz explain.

In other news I am suitably stuffed from lunch and I’m up for le mini-golf this evening. Still buggered from Uni, but otherwise excited.

I have now been relegated to my much loved Savoys, but fear I have fallen in love with Jatz.

I got scattered sleep last night and probably only slept for five hours. Today was meant to be assignment day. We shall seize the day regardless.

2 hours of work at home done.

Night do more later if I’m in the mood to free up my Monday work at home day.

Been doing them in 30 mins bursts today through the day.

Now for some footy and game time!

House clean (mostly), still need to scrub the shower and fold laundry but that can happen tomorrow as that’s enough housework for one day. Enjoying an arvo coffee in the sun (it’s turned out to be a pretty nice day), going to get a quick workout in before dinner out tonight.
