So, like, I don't shave my legs. I just don't care, even though the hair is dark and noticeable. I went to the shops in a sundress, and some middle ages white dude looked me up and down, saw my legs and made a very directed "UGH" at me.
Now I'm hot, I'm sweaty, I'm tired. So I whipped around and half yelled "ugh look at yourself you fat fuck!"
I'm in Brunswick, fuck off c-nt
Felt fucking good and I'm still not gonna shave lol
Wtf is wrong with people
Go you!
Lol idk what he was thinking π€£
wtf, it's Brunny, it's where we can be creative and ourselves
what a stupid dick that guy π
I know right lol prolly why I reacted so angrily. I haven't experienced that since I lived in the south-east lol.
Hope he loses all of his body hair! π
That guy can get fucked.
Mhm! I love the feeling of the wind in my leg hair and no one can take that from me! π
HOME FROM LAST LATE SHIFT FOR 2 MONTHS WOOOOOOOO π»π»π»π»π»
Funny fuck up tonight. I was speaking to a client and had to put them on hold for a couple minutes to get help. I got the help, then called the client back. They didn't answer so I left a voicemail. 5 minutes later when I'm finished with the file, I noticed they're still on hold to me. I'd left them a voicemail while they were on hold to me. At least they thought it was funny when I said "so this is going to seem a bit silly, but I've just left you a voicemail"...
Yo πΊ
Well done!!!! That's awesome!!! You can get back to your normal hours!!
Itβs only 9:30, but Iβm going to bed. Nigh nighs
Ordered a pizza because why the fuck not. It's been a hell of a day βΉοΈ
Positive COVID test, woop woop. It's times like these I think it would be nice to have a pool.
My sister dropped off some cookies but I cannot taste them.
Iβm so grateful I have aircon. Hope everyone can sleep ok in tonightβs heat.
The fluffy boyz are just laying there being fluffy and hot
Same seriously. This place would be awful without aircon.
Boob sweat
Same same same
Late night wine fueled brain thoughts.
Cat is a lot and I miss the dog. Games are great but so damn frustrating. Collecting supplies but my creativity seems empty. What is easy is not satisfying, what is difficult just makes me cry. I'm tired.
ππ
Beers, whiskey and weed.
Happy Friday you beautiful people
Right there with you minus the alcohol π
Yes girl!!!
I've been puffin all day (kids at school and day off). Couple of vape hits now are taking me to outer space.
The alcohol is a nice a grounder.
Enjoy your night π
Goodnight from the purple room π
"this is my leg now, see you at 4am".
π€£π€£π€£
If no-one's done tomorrows thread, I'll do it.
I wish I could play video games longer than an hour. Goddamn adhd.
In other news, Fluffball is content in front of the aircon
I would LOVE some insulation in my roof right now. I live on the top floor and the flat roof is a fucking oven for my place π even with the aircon on.
All my quiz assessments are done. I have three pracs I need to catch up on π I can do it I can do it
Ughhhhhh
Oh that was a shite week full of shitefulness but it's DONE. Got some important stuff out the door today and I pre-booked myself a ticket to an art show tonight so I wouldn't just flop. Out I go π
Gonna line up a swim tomorrow too. Have booked a car for chores and am aiming to be inside in time for cricket snooozes
Dog sits beside me. I turn on the microphone. Dog runs away. I've been shamed.
Why is it so hard to do stuff
It is hot and you have few spoons. You are doing enough. Pronise
But why brain no art
Ohhhh I feel this....biggest hugs
Sometimes it helps when I tell myself that I am nothing more then a blob of hydrogen, carbon, and a bunch of other star stuff, but I have senses. So if all I do in life is sense, I have done enough. I am the universe watching itself.
But that works like 8% of the time. The rest of the time I am " but why brain no art"
Sometimes I want to reach through my monitor and strangle the client.
Time for some r&r
"Ah, I think I understand the problem with your device. For our next troubleshooting step please pick up your mouse. Now just wrap that around your neck ever so gently... I understand it sounds silly but we're trying to align your bodies electrical field with your device to restore functionality... great, that's done? Now grab both ends of the cable, either side of your neck, and just pull as hard as you can. You might find it difficult to speak for this bit but don't worry. Also black dots appearing in your vision is perfectly normal... great... keep pulling..."
I dunno if DJ dorothy the dino is tearing up the decks tonight at the queenscliff musik fest. but the neighbours dogs are having none of it.
Must be a fair rig though can hear it from 2.5km away.
Reminds me of approaching park parties, slightly muffled bass.. getting louder.. louder.. then you made it! And then after a few hrs you realise oh shit now I have to try and make it back home.
ta da, just finished reading a general text book on modern handwriting and calligraphy. I have learned much. One thing is that it is near impossible to have nice Modern Round English script, the script I was taught at school. It looks crap for nearly everyone and is hard to get to look right with thick and thin lines with a pointy pen.
Books on Italic handwriting scripts have been ordered. π
Today I also watched Young Fronkensteen. I think comedians often make movies with their friends so they can make jokes. Which is great too. πΈ 3.5 hobbits .
Does anyone know a mechanic they can trust? I just want to find one that's not going to take advantage.
I figure I should have one for down the track.
Ginger beer's on special buy at Coles, 2 x 1.5L Kirk's brand for $3.50. I grabbed a couple and am going to enjoy the sunset from the patio
I've developed a bit of a taste for ginger beer/ale recently. Just goes so nicely with the warm weather. The Bundy ones are my favourite, followed by Schweppes. Keen to try the Kirks
Edit: ive tried it, it's not the best. It's a lot "spicier" tasting than shcweppes ginger ale, and it's been too long since I had a Bundy one to be sure, but I think it tastes spicier than that did too. I'm not really picking up on the ginger though. Plus the lack of a glass bottle makes it a lot less cool
What a bloody bonza day! Beautiful weather!
Had some pizza for lunch, then scored a free frozen coke off HJs, and I am absolutely loving this toasty weather. Takes a couple hours to acclimate, and gotta watch the water intake, but I am absolutely in my zone today!
India all out for 150. Nothing makes me laugh more than r/cricket when India are losing.
BTW 150 is a shit score
Tomorrow was not a great choice to book a chemical peel. I think I better buy a hat.
Ted is on a diet. If he hasn't lost weight by his next vet visit in 3 months I am in trouble.
Ted is now attacking my bum again because he is cranky for dinner. I am going to need bum armour.
Just got home. Closing all the windows/curtains/roller shutters worked. Nice 25 deg in kitchen. The effing houseplants will just have to cope with low light conditions for today & termorrer. Fussy little buggers.
Time to defrost an emergency quiche for din dins. Cbf cooking anything.
Note to self : restock on cheap white plonk suitable for drinking over ice. The current cardboard box is getting a bit light and sloshy.
