Melbourne

My cat had her annual check up today. I've had her for just on a year now. She has taken a long time to warm up and relax. Unfortunately today I think she lost a bit of trust in me. She saw the cage and just knew what was coming. It was an experience getting her in the cage.

And the hisses she gave the vet during a clip of her nails were impressive! This was after the vaccination and general checkup of spine, joints, eyes, ears and belly so I guess she just had had enough. Totally understand.

So after some alone time she will now come to me for scritches but not close enough where I could pick her up. And her side eye game is impressive.

Ah well.. Three steps forward; 1 step back. I'll take it. This is Mavis.

More alcohol than I planned, but a good night

And that my friends is how you make conversation.

You are welcome

Greetings from the most beautiful place in Victoria: tidal river. Ignore the bins the site selection was limited.

Tonight's wave.

Also random doggo.

Zucchini is a really underrated vegetable. So fast to cook, so versatile, so flavoursome. And pretty. Just straight up sliced and sauteed in olive oil with some onions and oregano = 👌🏽

I acknowledge the reality is completely different when you're drowning in a glut of garden zucchini.

I survived the crack head party next door last night.

Wasn't keen on having weapons tucked under the bed and mattress, but it is what it is for now.

Client with 100+ day overdue invoice finally paid me. Chasing him to pay was a pain in the ass but we finally got there. The ugly side of my business venture - getting slimy people to pay me. Soon I'll be able to take upfront payments and this person will need to pay everything upfront for future services. Burn me once, you don't get a second chance.

Now one more person with 100 day overdue invoice to pay me, also a slimy person. I've been lucky that most people I do work for actually respect and value what I do and pay me on time. I hate being a debt collector.

WEEKEND FUCK YEAH!!!!!

Utilising the utmost of self control to not watch today's episode of Severence until after I get back from dinner out with some friends/work contacts this evening.

Because if I watched it earlier I'd just be thinking about the episode all evening.

Stuff it, going to the pub

People often ridiculed me for having so much tape.. They could well be wrong.

The boardies will live on I have high hopes for this. You can't have 4 different tapes and just give up on sunset swims.

Ginger weirdo or black psycho? And we're not able to photograph the torti as she's busy climbing walls in another room.

Ugh the humidity. Feels very South East Asian today

Got home in 23 mins compared to my morning drive which was almost 10.

Some really stupid drivers out there.

One was changing lanes without signalling and then there was a new one.

Someone signalling to change lanes but went in the opposite lane to what they were indicating. That one was particularly dangerous.

Anyway survived the drive home.

Another 2 resignations today.

And so it goes.

Hullo

Night night

eco247 bog roll arrived.......I have vastly underestimated how much 48 rolls of toilet paper is.

Well, we're set for the rest of the year....

Pineapple pizza

Knights assemble!

I require lunch

YOU CAN'T GO BOTH, PEOPLE. DO YOU KNOW HOW THIS WORKS. ONE OR THE OTHER. NO OTHER OPTIONS. *

*unless you post them separately

Alrighty.

2 interviews next week. One in person and one virtual.

Keeping the wheels rolling along.

Excuse me while I adjust my pants

So that I may dance the good time dance💃

oops! Took too much of a lunch break.

1 hour and 20 mins before I can knock off, come on!

Goodnight all

Can somebody Adult for me today? Dooonwanna!

In a surprisingly good mood tonight. Work apathy makes room for personal life joy lol

Gettin there, gettin there...

Cheers munchkins 🍺

First day at another site.

Not a bad start so far, seeing a few familiar faces and not having to leave home as early as I normally do.

With any luck I might get home really early today depending, argh, I really want to go shopping for chicken drumsticks but maybe i'll leave that for tomorrow morning instead of getting stuck in peak hour.

all my chores done, tired, now some time for myself 😊
