        Not a huge drama, it’s a bedding layer for recycled concrete chunks of varying thicknesses anyway. The guidelines are fixed points, as long as there’s no turds i’m G

      this is for the paving?

      To me that job would be so overwhelming I’d have to break it down into steps.

        Ayup. Nah the screeding is the easy part.

        calculating the slopes and digging all that shit out then dragging up, grading and compacting by hand all the fucking road base was the hard part.

        Chunky concrete placement is puzzle time. And I’m fantastic at spatial relations and tetris :D

    Presentation went AMAZING, best one yet. Lots of questions and discussions during the session which is exactly what I want. And a possible new client that came to the session has already emailed me. That’s how it’s done!

    Dragula is a great trashy show. Drag queens bitching each other out and being all sassy and witty, while designing horror themed drag outfits. I didn’t know I was a fan of this subculture until now

    How bizarre. I slept overnight for a few hours, and then spent the time from 7am to 5pm mostly asleep. I really hope it isn’t COVID and it’s just today I’ll be like this.

    I think back to a year ago when I was dealing with the old job. I wanted to try get into recording again around the grand final long weekend but realised I had to make moves to try get out of there. Things have been good with the current job and I’m talking some days off around this public holiday without any plans so I might try get into things again

        Yeah, I put down some riffs I was thinking of doing something with. I was thinking I could structure some songs and rerecord and layer until I’m happy. But I figured it was better for me to spend my evenings putting in for jobs instead

    I’ve decided to buy a phone tripod and make lame social media videos playing covers.

    Will it be a waste of time? Absolutely.

    I have whipped and snipped some edges and the tallest clumps of grass in the backyard. Now my arms are feeling a bit wobbly. Not sure if I’ll do the mowing today or tomorrow. I should do a bit more cardboard/mulch application and start on planting vegie seeds, but my motivation is very low today.

    Started getting a sore throat yesterday but I thought it was because I didn’t drink much water. Boy was I wrong. Woke up with a migraine, fever, chills, bodily pains and of course, a way worse fucking sore throat. Hopefully I can recover faster than I did when I was sick two months ago because I have to do a presentation in five days.
