Think I'm lucky today, not much work to do due to finishing all my backlog earlier in the week.
If something doesn't pop up today I'm going to have a cruisy day tomorrow as well.
For now I'm stapling paper together.

Has anyone ever done any icebreakers that don't suck for a group of friendly but introverted IT types?
I have a couple of newbies starting and want to help them get to know people but we are a naturally introverted lot. We are going to do a bit of a cake and chat before the next team retro. Do I let the awkward convos ...sorta flow? Should I just get everyone to introduce themselves formally (small team - they will have met the newbies) or is there any non sucky thing that helps people relax and chat? This will be an in person thing.

Classic Herbal Essences is discounted right now at Coles and silicone free. ๐ค Finding it a bit hard to rinse the Dove bar out sometimes so maybe Iโll try just the shampoo in whatever type looks least smelly. Edit: Actually looking at the descriptions I might go smell it first. Iโd go for the Moisture Milks but they seem to be gone.
The zucchini are sending up more male flowers. I thought they were done. The mildew and heat have left them looking a bit rough.
Thereโs progress on the string bag. Itโs mind numbing and Iโm trying to nail the way to hold the yarn but soon Iโll be to the next stage.

Thereโs also a baby huntsman whoโs been here a few days. I hope he stays out of Melbcatโs reach
my brain is stuck today
I will do what I always do when it is stuck, tidy my work area and the living area
and make lists ๐

McDonalds have brought back the breakfast wrap. It's now much easier to have breakfast in the car again
Sorting through stuff at home and found quite a few games for Nintendo 3DS. I don't think I'd get much trading them (I don't really know) but we don't want to keep them either. I don't want to get Facebook/eBay scammed out of them so I guess I'm just stuck with them. If anyone knows of any place that gives you a decent (ie not completely ripoff) price I'd love to know.
Edit: picture of games
Do you have a market nearby with a retro gaming stall?
Don't think so but I'll have a look.
If you've got some of the stuff I'm after I'm happy to make an offer, or if you tell us what you want per game. Probably less sketch dealing with the DT than ebay.
No problem will have a better look tonight and add pics

Today is v. vague
Iโm grateful for the dishwasher doing the washing part but I still need to fussily stack it and then manually rinse everything and set it to drip afterwards. (Doesnโt rinse well.) So I get stuck on that part and dishes pile up anyway. :(

Rise and shine. ๐
Good morning Seagoon, thank you for posting a Thursday thread. Briongloid's Tuesday version had me most confused. I have a hard enough time keeping track of the days as it is, I wasn't sure what part of the week I was in for a few minutes ๐
Argh no, I want to sleep in today.

Feeling a bit grumpy tonight, mostly in just not being happy with me, but I went for a stroll around the block, indulging in some gaming and now I'm just appreciating how good my chest is while winding down for sleep by watching a Kdrama. Anyone here seen It's Okay Not To Be Okay? Fucking batshit, I tells ya.
