Let the joy be unbridled! My neighbour’s windchimes have FINALLY broken through their string and have fallen! And said neighbours are away for the next week so I’ll have at least a week of blessed silence. Happy happy happy!
While they are away you should take the opportunity to sneak in and fill the pipes with spray foam to permanently silence them.
This is incredible news.
Puppy dog eyes won out and we went for a walk. It was as cold and windy as expected, but fortunately we managed to avoid being rained on. Miss Meow now has me pinned down on the couch to make sure I don’t try to leave again.
Off to buy a shitload of aerogard from the chemist lol. CW seems reasonable price-wise.
Was reassuring to find this today. Seems like they do the multi DOOOM approach too, so I’m not going completely mad. Their language does appear a bit defeatist though heh. No mention of weed burners :( .
Checkout person will think I have a massive unhealthy phobia of insects.
There’s this absolute waste of an ejaculation that keeps pulling up to the stopped light near my place and revving his fartmobilw. One day i’m gonna greet him with a cinderblock
Broom broom! Look At Me! Broom broom! I’m A Big Boy! Shut the fuck up you twat its not gonna make your daddy love you
Sleep has been acquired and My Hello Fresh box is inside. Mr Woof thinks that means it’s walk time, but the weather is miserable out there. Cold, windy and likely rain coming. I am not feeling enthused.
Chill day today. Haircut, wander around for a while and grab a fitness tracker maybe grab a pair of hightops or a pair of dickies.
Then it’s guitar and singing all day.
Perfect Saturday.
Edit: success! Cheap fitness tracker and an awesome large black hoodie with a massive hood. Taken me ages to find one.
Currently in the middle of a power outage. I didn’t manage to get the heaters on for long enough to warm up the place.
Hoping the sun can warm the place up a little.
Lucky I charged all my stuff for last week but not knowing this was going to happen has screwed me up.
Oh well washing for tomorrow instead.
Now to get make some food. Thank god I still have a gas stove.
Can you go and hang out somewhere warm for a bit? A shopping centre or library or somewhere?
Or else you could build a blanket fort.
It might be blanket fort day me thinks
oodie was the best thing ever when I lived in the cold house in Carlton. I wore it out!
get an oodie if you can
I forgot I owned one actually. Good idea!
I have a to do list, ticked off some, have lots more to do.
onward ---->
bloody hell, it’s so windy I will do the garden tomorrow
Washing is out. Wind is busy. Just waiting on the sunshine to happen.
so windy here 😬
woooo tanks mounted and tested and despite rolling around the back yard empty for two friggin’ years no splits! now I have somewhere to stuff the water from the 300l down the side while I completely redo its overflow system
I’ve caught some virus, feeling crappy this morning. Couldn’t sleep more than a couple hours in a row last night. Had a birthday party to go to tonight which I was looking forward to, think I’ll have to cancel 😞 If there’s a bright side to being sick on the weekend, I’ve got a lot of TV to catch up on so going to do some binge watching.
I’m pretty proud of our local train youtubers here in Melbourne. I was able to find a bunch of original content on the train derailment at Clifton Hill. I found videos on the derailment, freight trains coming to take the train apart, and the derailed carriage being lifted off the track by a crane.
And we don’t even have the most comprehensive public transport network. I wonder what the train youtubers in other cities are like?
We went for a train ride down to Reservoir and saw one of the yellow SSR freight trains from the video.
It kind of feels like meeting a local celebrity
Grocery run, chores and other productive things all done by 11am. Definitely need a nap before dinner out tonight! This wind is putting me on edge though.
What use is Al if cats still arent bringing me a morning coffee?
They have natural intelligence, not the artificial variety. I mean, why bring coffee when you can get people to bring you food instead …
They have to earn their keep!!
Surely ‘looking beautiful’ is enough work for any cat. Maybe you should take them coffee. You’re the staff.
mine put in hard yards making sure that the couch doesn’t fly away. Misha even heroically throws herself bodily in the way to ensure the sun doesn’t bleach my dining table.
Polishing the floors? Keeping pillows suitably dented?
Since I bought my ipad pro I’ve been leaning towards going back to iOS for a phone
Fuck they’re ridiculously expensive. I would be buying outright this time and yeah, holy fuck I’m not paying almost 2k for a phone.
I bought my iPhone outright but I wait for a deal (ozbargain is a great resource) and I have my phone for 3 - 4 years before I upgrade. I use it all the time. It’s worth the splurge for Apple for me. But I agree with pricing, everytime I upgrade the outright price has gone up a fair bit.
I’ve had my Samsung almost 4 years so I hear you about keeping a phone for a while.
IPhones seem to hold their value a hell of a lot more than Samsung’s do.
I’ll check out ozbargain, thanks for the heads up :)
yeah I just wait until my sister upgrades her phone plan and gives me her old one XD.
Last phone I bought was literally a nokia 3310. It’s a phone. I don’t care. I get everyone’s hand me downs.
Phone prices have been getting ridiculous in the last couple of years. I’m almost swinging the other way and I think I’ll get a mid-tier Chinese phone next
You can usually pick up last year’s model for a major discount and it’s often not much different to the current model.
