I got the anxieties about starting work next week. I’m trying to reframe it as “excitement”, focus on the paycheck, work my wage, it will be gooooooood. I’m fine!
yup, think of the rewards 😸
Not struggling to pay almost 2k in rent, a driver’s licence, I can buy name brand coffee again! The future is limitless
Try and refame it. Its not anxiety, its your body’s ignition sequence for something you’ve never done before or haven’t for a while.
That is w good way to reframe it! It’s just creating adrenaline in preparation!
Prepare to be mega exhausted for a few weeks while you adjust. It will get better ☺️
Oh yeah for sure, I’m just gonna take it easy during the adjustment period!
Boyo and I nearly had our first fight because I was keen as hell to make a pasta bake which he was gungho about until I let him know it had mushrooms in it. I still made the dish, he had toasties for dinner. The pasta bake ruled, his loss, not gonna hold it against him no matter how much he protests “I swear I just wasn’t hungry!” (somehow you decided that 4 hours before dinner, 10 minutes after I let you know about the mushrooms. I don’t care, dude, I still had what I wanted)
Mushrooms are tricky. For me the flavour is fine but the texture vile. Sometimes eating around them works, others it doesn’t.
You warned, he declined. Don’t weaponise them.
Worse comes to worst, I have another 4 servings of a meal I found delicious and he made himself his dinner so I don’t mind!
miss seagoon has some food can’t eats and won’t eats
I don’t cook the can’t eats and always discuss ingredients
I want eating to be a happy thing
If I like something other people can’t or won’t have I make that for a lunch for myself . No drama and I don’t miss out.
Boyo hates salmon but occasionally I’m like SALMON IS LIFE and we make it work. This is a communication issue with a 30 second delay.
I can’t eat oily fish and can barely eat white fish, I cook a lot of fish because Mr Seagoon absolutely loves fish. It’s such an easy thing to do.
anyway, with pasta bakes if there are different likes just use small gratin bowls and make different ones, leaving out mushies or what ever in some of them. It takes nearly no effort.
He shoulda pulled the fucking mushrooms out and left them for his partner like a normal person.
🤷♀️
he couldn’t pick the mushies out?
Nope. And I get it, which is why I prewarned him because if he’d seen/smelt them… IDK, I guess I wish he’d just tried the dish. But I also understand why he didn’t and am glad I still had it because it was so delicious. Thank you again, Nagi!
Ouch! LittleOne was lying on my chest when the auto feeder triggered. Springbok feet to the throat. Thanks shithead
Oof! Mickey loves to sleep on my chest and then suddenly launch off my boobs at mach 5. It’s a unique sort of love but I take what I can get from the apex predator with a Napoleon complex 😂
claw in the belly button in lift off is a special touch
WhiteBoy used to wake me with a delicate claw to the nostril.
Ooh i got a top one: Cerys once literally ripped my left nipple in half from a chest launch.
Bonus points: she was a teenager / still semi kitten with the kitten razor feet
Fucking ouch! I’ve a hand scar from same cat superman launching himself at me in search of hugs. Adorable rotters.
Melbcat is good to go next week! I’m really hoping that everything goes well 🤞☘️
🤞 🤞 sending good healing vibes. go Melbcat
Send so many good vibes for you both and gentle head kisses for Melbcat!
so many hugs and kisses, it will go well 😸
Running to the library to print things, and I’m remembering why I don’t run
Looks like my request for clarification of responsibilities worked!
I have leads to follow and quoting to do!
Nothing better than actually knowing what you’re supposed to be doing at work
Fuggit. I am not cooking tonight. Fish n chips here I come.
Went for a walk. Perfect walking temperature and a nice breeze.
I’m loving these cool breezes
Lawyer consulted. I do believe a DIY solution will be taken. Fee schedule is absurd.
If you are well organised and patient many legal tasks can be DIY.
Agreed. The basic issue is enforceable. Since this is a hopefully never need, I think we’ve got a solution.
Geez. The great ocean road hogged all the rain and we got none. I don’t think the outcome is good for either party.
the deforestation hasn’t helped none either
That’s been a wild turn of events today!
Urgh, car wants my money. Rear main seal and brake master cylinder. Probably do the clutch while the gearbox is off too. It’s like half the value of the car.
No one has noticed my fashion faux pas of black trousers with a blue shirt. Do I keep working here because I can get away with such crimes, or do I move on because I can’t possibly work with animals such as these?
Keep working there because they noticed, but they’re polite 😉
They’re talking behind your back.
I knew they were talking behind my back, just like I know everyone’s saying I’m paranoid
Don’t forget that as soon as you look away from someone, they’re staring at you and picking out the flaws.
Such is.
I have no idea what’s wrong with this combination. Looks good to me.
Once you have a suit guy educate you on good drip it’s hard to unsee
Hey depending on the shade of blue and the intensity of the black, it can look ok. You probably look alright!
They’re slightly faded black trousers so it almost looks like a dark navy. Not as bad as black leather boots with jeans instead of brown boots
Hardly a crime at all compared to pink shirts
Maybe a pink shirt on its own but dark blue jacket with pink shirt underneath is peak male look. I have a Suit Guy in Fairfield that advised me as such
Noooooo! They just look like you don’t know how to laundry. My petty Hill.
Damn that red t-shirt.
the egg nishner guy is here
hope it all gets fixed in time for the next heatwave or even cold snap
You may not need another charger but look into the Ugreen Uno range of chargers/powerbanks/cables. They have screens on them to give them little robot eyes and the charger looks like a robot wearing headphones. It even comes with a magnetic prong cover that makes it look like it has shoes
They are cute as!
Omg they’re adorable! 😍 But so exxy! 😱
You’re paying for all the extra robotics that goes into making them cute
Indeed! I’ll bookmark the site and look at getting one later on, after a few proper phat paychecks ofc 😂
Then you’ll need to get a few things to charge with it; new phone/laptop/steam deck
What is your ideal weather pattern?
Mine is a nice sunny 23°c day with a weekly 30°c day to dry the sheets quickly, all year round. The occasional balmy night for drinks outside. Strictly no pollen or harmful UV rays.
10 degC overnight. Daytime 20 degC up to 25 degC. Fine during the day, any rain coming at night. Occasional hot day to 30 degC for laundry purposes. Wind - not bothered except that hot northerly winds should be VERBOTEN!
Pretty much my ideal set up. I do want some rainy weekends with a max of 15, peppered in there. Cozy days for chilling on the couch.
Sunny days above 20 degrees, not too close to 30 degrees, and not too much wind. Overnight low between 10 to 15 degrees for comfortable sleeping. This year round with occasionally balmier / beach days (around 30 degrees), and occasional rainy days for moodier times and for the gardens.
I like just mild weather, even slightly cool. Sun is nice but I can’t handle too much
21 and sunny, slight breeze. Night 10-12 degrees
I like random and weather that can be challenging at times. Reminds me I am human, reminds me of the power of nature.
Sunny days between 20°C and 25°C, with rain/storms from 11:45PM to 3.30AM. an occasional warm day of 30°C, preferrably on a Friday or Saturday as it’s nice going out when it’s warm and there’s no work the next day lol.
Edit: Storm/rain does not occur when there is a cool celestial event happening lol
