Snuck out of the meet and greet. They can stay in the office, I’d prefer to spend my personal time doing my own thing.
This is one of the temu things I got
Blob cats!
I asked for an extension from the real estate agent
On the twice-yearly inspection, ridiculously invasive
They graciously gave me another week to prepare
Though I think the concept is entirely unfair.the REA charge the landlords
it’s a complete rip off

I was an hour late and they were all standing there, then ran at me when they realised it was me.
You’re so loved!

Dog farted twice when he was walking up some stairs. I died.
Simon can’t be fucked today.
Some fancy douchebag from the conglomerate is here so we all have to put on our fineries and do the little dance.
Some days are just showing up for the dollars.
They’re called weekdays
As an academic, weekday finery means a collared shirt instead of a tshirt. And my nice jeans.
For me it’s sneakers instead of runners. Still rock the collared shirt. Perhaps chinos instead of jeans.
you’re not on the RMs?
Absofuckinglutely not. Too 3 ugliest boot out there.
Don’t mind the Chelsea style, just not RMs.
If I go dressy with footwear, I’m sporting my Dr. Martens.

Im craving Friday so I can assemble my new drum kit.
Popcorn has 94kcal per serving.
Each bag has 10 servings.
I did not eat 1 serving.Calories are to maintain your body and allow you to live life. You’re doing a good job at living
snack a whole meal’s worth of calories
Popcorn is good. Popcorn is life.
Yehhh once that bags open they’re all getting eaten. No question.
Consider an air popper if you want lower calorie popcorn. Plus you can make it from a small scoop of popcorn, rather than committing to a whole bag. e: plus if you open an unpopped bag, there’s a bunch of oil in there to help with the popping and flavour.
Don’t even need an air popper, paper bag and plain kernels in a microwave works fine
Even better. I saw three air poppers in the opshop yesterday.
I got one of those silicon thingies 'cos i was sick of paper bag use, it’s awesome. Kernels in de bowl, bowl in de microwave, pop pop pop, bowl in my lap, popcorn in my mouth. Herfdenerf.
You have such an amazing way with words! 😆
Whew that was a super hectic talk-through of whatever shonky slides I already have but it looks like I am mostly there. The power of just slapping up one image with notes on another screen so you can talk as little or as much as needed depending on time!
Looks like my supervisor is pretty flat out marking other stuff next week so it really is hyper-compressed crunch time rest of this week to get the slides to a usable place, then get a 90% draft of the thesis across by latest Tuesday next week.
Ah well, I operate best under pressure and maybe it’s a good target for me to try and get this wrapped up by my RL cake day around that due date as a bonus motivator… time to clear the weekend and get more food ordered! 🦾
you can do this 👍
My brain is potentially cooked. Been earwormed by obscene chants from Primary school. No idea who taught us these things but they need a stern talking to!
Loong beach walk, went to where the mangroves start. Saw two pelicans out of the water and close up, they are BIG, much bigger than I thought.
I’m loving this beach/sea side life, it’s just what I needed to destress. 🙂
Looks like the tide is way out here compared to your pics, quite a difference!
these are part of mud flats/marshland that go quite a distance
pretty much impossible to navigate after this point as it is all salty mud flats, no sandy beach
it’s a nature reserve after this point
Happy International Sushi Day
Oooh, thanks for the heads up, know what I’m getting for lunch now!

Physical exhaustion is kicking my arse. I have to gather energy to get up.
It’s all happening at Norfland (again). This time a car has driven through it. My local shopping centre is living up to its reputation for drama
Someone needs to create an annual Norflands bingo card. This would be very easy to populate
I tried one of the trails near my place on the way home yesterday. I don’t think I’ll incorporate it into the commute. It was very steep on both ends and a lot of work, even on the ebike at full assist. I’ll keep looking at the trails though, there may be a shortcut that’s a decent balance between hills and cutting out intersections.
Got any rivers? They’re usually nice without intersections.
There are a couple of creeks around I could follow but none line up with the commute I’m aware of
Even if they add ten minutes I used to prefer taking the creek for the peaceful cycling.
If I can ride these other trails I think I’ll take them anyway. They cut out some annoying intersections next to a busy road.
And the ride yesterday was tough, but the view was beautiful once I finally got to the top. Much nicer than even suburban cycle paths to get around.
Beach. It’s cold, I’ll rug up.
and visiting the other side of the creek today, there are few rocks there and not many sea birds
haven’t really explored that area yet , I’ll take pics ❄️☀️
Does anyone else eat fish n chips with a fork? I can eat them without, I just prefer to use one if I’m at home.
I definitely do this at home. I like not having my fingers all greasy if I want to use the tv remote or phone. Also a must when I’m eating while working on other stuff
Yes!!! I don’t wanna touch my drink with greasy fingers.
I use copious amounts of paper napkins
Sometimes
especially if I’m having a salad with it
Nope, and I judge people who do.
That’s fair.
If I’m cooking it usually though sometimes I use my fingers for chips.
Same, if I’m at home
Depends on the situation, but probably 50% of the tieme.
