Is tonight supposed to be cold as again? Last night was not pleasant. I even tried to sleep with pj pants on (last all of an hour before I went “nah fuck it, it rather freeze”)
So /r/melbourne is back and I'll be able to save my journal. Did back to April last night and will do some more later today. Was actually pretty good reading it back. No, "holy shit that's right!" moments yet, but fuck it was a relief.
Today I have been doing functional crap but finally set my delay and distortion pedals up with all associated leads and the pedals off the floor so the cats can't chew them. Its running through Aux 1 so I can again put a nice echo effect on stupid things like youtubes. Not as fun as when I used to wake and bake but still at least its all working again. Glad I kept that little piano stool. It was nearly taken to the opshop three times I think. Still need to cable up the dj setup amp and speakers but lost my motivation. Another coffee I think, pic attached so you know what heck I'm talking about if you're not a muso. If you are, in before the metal zone (yuck), it's fine.
Scored a nice red pvc jacket from the opshop, put some other recent jacket scores in for repairs, with both costing more than the jackets, but they're worth it. Bought one of those cat tunnels and the cats tired themselves out playing it, really happy with that. I bought a cheap one though and it's a bit shit but it'll do, they don't understand money.
Taking the last of my stuff I need to downsize out of my life to the opshop soon. Fuck... it's almost all done! I've slowed down in the last six weeks cos I was on a bender, but I've stopped drinking and back on top of things. Also finally getting the hang of liquid eyeliner which seems like a big step in the right direction.
Edit: Also nice to post the daily thread for you all, seriously, this place feels like more of a community than the old dt and it was great.
I hate me for getting up early with all the intention to go into work and then the minutes tick by I'm like...nah...nah...nah. and I got up early for nothing.
Huh. TIL you can't reblock someone for 24 hours after unblocking them on Reddit

Had a persistent tickly cough for weeks so I've been trying to get a lot of sleep, today woke up from the worst nightmare, woke up crying and I'm still a little shaky. Fuck you terrorists. 😭
This reddit limbo land is quite irritating.
We probably have a cream for that somewhere around here. If irritation persists, please seek the assistance of a medical professional.
Just went out to bring the bin in and it looked like I'd taken up smoking again, fookin cold!
My work schedule has changed from 10:30 starts to 11am starts. But I still have to wake up early today so I can go to Vicroads and my jobseeker. Ugh.
mushroom soup, two croissants, thin steak, egg, juice. Oh yes.
Does anyone have specific ways to budget? Whether this is using apps or specific spreadsheets? Budgeting is hard, and especially with ADHD I'm like "ooo money" and I've gotten into some serious trouble from spending money and forgetting about the responsibilities I have. There's the 50/30/20 rule which seems pretty doable. I might change my health insurance to be paid monthly instead of the fortnight it was originally set due to being paid fortnightly (this new job will pay me out monthly instead).
bolognese and pasta made and eaten last of my jumpers washed ( I'm washing them all as real winter hits) of course it has a moth hole in front now 🤬
