Alright, I'm home. I'm going to stretch out the anticipation and murder the tower of dishes, vacuum, and shower before I lose several hours to the show of the season. I suppose this is not dissimilar to the concept of "edging"
E: I have watched it. I suppose, in line with the theme above...
Severence s2e5 mild spoiler

I once saw a woman plucking her pubic line in Princes Park. So it happens...
Home in record time and all settled now, let the weekend begin.
Dodged school traffic, home in 17 mins, could have been down to 15 if people wouldnβt make right turns at super busy roads.
On my second coffee but all I have succeeded in doing is adding a heightened layer of anxiety over the overwhelm. I have so much to do I can't find a place to start ππ
But haircut after work. New colour I think...dunno what yet...
Headphones! My work headphones for about six years have been a pair of Google Pixel earbuds that have been fine. No complaints, nothing to rave about. I've ogled a pair of Sony XM5's for the longest time, but have never been able to justify buying a pair while I have a perfectly working pair.
The Pixels are starting to wear out. I'll be getting replacement headphones this year.
Here the thing: If I wait a couple of months, I'll have enough points for a free pair of Apple Airpods Max. Only, at work the only Apple device I have is the iPad. I have a Macbook at home, but these will be for work. The biggest strength of Airpods is their ability to seamlessly work with all your Apple devices. They'll do regular Bluetooth, but they aren't special for that.
The Airpods are stupidly priced at $900. Even getting them for free that pricetag is the biggest thing I have against them. I don't really want to look like the sort of moron who would waste that much money on a pair of headphones. I thought of getting them, selling them and then buying a pair of Sonys. Only, Ebay seems to have Airpods going at around the price of the XM5's anyway. So, that pathway looks like a hassle for no real gain.
Options:
What to do? I don't suppose anyone has had any experience with both XM5's and the Airpods Max, do they?
Blah. Set myself up in a room and someoneβs taken my spot and Iβve had to move again to have some time and coffee to myself.
Not ideal start.
"Morning, will you be my Valentine?" sticks tongue in ear runs off to piss like a racehorse
