Melbourne

Back at work today and I've finally caught up on my emails and had a chat with a colleague about what's been going on during my leave. It looks like I don't actually have anything to do until at least tomorrow though sooooo.. imma go get a coffee from the cafe.

Anyone has the Pfizer bivalent booster? Only had 3 x vaccines and beeb advised to get a booster. Side effects are of great concern.

Tweaked my shoulder doing yoga this morning. This isn't how I was planning on starting my week.

Latest medical certificate runs out this week and I've got to decide whether to start looking for work or get one for another month.
The way I'm feeling I'm leaning towards extending it for another month, especially since I'm still tired from last week, which was physically and emotionally demanding.
What I'm scared of doing is overextending myself like I did last time and setting off another crash, especially since I'm still packing up the house and hope to put it on the market very soon.

I'm going to order in some lollies and chips to use as study rewards, any recommendations?

Just the kid and I for dinner tonight. Her only requirement was it had to include avocado

My dinner

Microwave egg rice, sprats, avocado, truss tomatoes, chives and a fried egg. 2 rice cakes, cottage cheese, avocado and a shitload of cracked pepper.

For afters mini cheesecakes.

The biggest advantage of ADHD is that if I wait long enough before rewatching a series, it's like watching a whole new series again. I'm watching Charmed and it's like watching a whole new series again, obviously I remember significant parts, but sometimes I can't place them and I feel the emotions all over again.

10 mins ago my work system crashed. All govt websites crashed. The BOM has crashed. !!! Yet I can still access aussie-zone. wtf?

Today was a rest day from exercises but I ended up doing some anyway because I wanted to. Especially after a weekend of donuts and ribs.. I think I needed it! Started sorting out my herbs and spices but haven't finished, as I'm dithering about which ones I'll put in the new storage carousel thingy and which ones I'll put in other jars. The Minipeelers have been missing me today I think, and were eager to help with my laundry and meal related tasks. They're learning fast and growing faster!

I have this Dangerfield pinafore that I love to wear, but for some reason the zipper sucks. It's not that like there isn't elastic because there is, and it's not like the zipper is broken. It's just super happy to unzip itself for some reason and I don't know what to do with it? Like the teeth aren't broken, the zip isn't broken. I'm just so confused lmfao

This probably won’t mean much to most people but I’ve been inspired to continue with a game called 23 Sentinels: Aegis Rim a sci fi story with a unique storytelling technique from famed Vanillaware, known for their gorgeous artwork and 2d animation and sprites in games.

All this was inspired from a recent announcement of their new game called Unicorn Overlord and it looks absolutely beautiful with how animated and detailed their artwork and animation that was showcased.

Defo a Monday, discovered I have put my underwear on inside out 🤦‍♀️😅

Edit: gonna go to barkly square after work and grab a USBC to Aux converter.

ugh today is determined to be A Day

Also I wish a very merry anal prolapse upon all NAS manufacturers who do a firmware change so fucking fundamental we not only need to completely rewrite our docker images, but also the goddamn documentation for basic setup.

Realising I'll probably be in Melbourne through most of summer - weighing up if I should cough up and get myself an air purifier. I don't need a huge one, I live in a modest 2br apt... Anyone got recommendations for a brand/model that they know works well and is easy to get replacement filters for?
