Melbourne

Pre-inspection rental application completed. I'm really missing the days when you would go to the real estate agent, grab the keys for anything you were interested in to go and have a look, and if you liked it you just showed some basic id & proof of income and the place was yours.

At this hour there is a perfect sunbathing spot on the stairs

Ol' boy finally found the piccys from a school trip we did to nepal back in 1999 (I was yr 9 at the time). 200 kids, bunch of teachers, 4 docs who were parents of kids (and went for free lol). And a fuckton of risk, they stopped the trip a year after that as a few kids ran into health troubles. Cheap as shit due to bulk kids.

Was before digital cams so pretty much only the adults had proper cameras. ol' boy had a nice one and got heaps of shots. They're all on slides and negatives.

Looks awful for now until I get them properly imaged but fuck me the memories.

Over easter doing a slide show on an old school slide projector from the 70's that still works down the bellarine w/ the fam. Gonna be lit lol.

Goodnight all ❤️

I was unsuccessful in my rental application. ☹️

I've booked an inspection of another one which looks ok, but the photos on the website are the same photos it was sold with 7 years ago.

There is another maybe property which looks a bit too good for the price and has been listed for a while, so I am a bit sus about that one. It also has a patch of fake grass in bad condition and a number of very large yuccas.

Parma for dinner. Tomorrow nights probs loaded potato wedges that I stole the idea from Aldi. need to get back into miss match meals to use whats in the freezer.

I didn't realise I had the same bug as the rest of the family until I finished my coffee in the office. I managed to get home alright without any problems. Another plus to the location of this place, the last thing you'd want is an hour long train trip after realising you're sick

Spent most of today learning how to navigate my new org's SharePoint structure. Nearly 4 years in the same place and shit was embedded in my memory and almost automatic.

I feel like an infant learning how to crawl again.

sky pretty

Eee yaks

So the one thing yaks don't care about is everything. You get out of the way, they won't.

If you could afford to employ one full time staffers who would it be? Gardener, pool boy, administrator, butler etc.

I chased a moth around the room, gave it an almighty lob with the fly swatter and now I don't know where it's gone.

Last night I learned that Pluto and Charon are tidally locked with each other, so Charon appears to not move in Pluto's sky.

Our moon is tidally locked with us, so it always shows us the same side, but it moves through the sky because Earth isn't tidally locked with it.

Mind blown 🤯

it's taking so long to unpack and set up house as it's a house of 4 adults and 2 cats including the young Seagoons, this is their base here in Australia and where they keep their things.

gotta say the velvet'ed beef was incredible. Absolute game changer.

Today is definitely a two-coffee, suffer-no-fools kind of day. Even my colleagues are keeping their distance from my DON'T DISTURB ME vibe. Good.

yay, pakige

coathangers and shoe organisers , so excitement

Just did another botched job of reversing into a parking space. I'm really stuffing up the initial angle. I'm sure I'll get better eventually, but at the moment it is pretty nerve wracking.

Forgot to take the compost bin down last night, woke up to enterprising felines flinging lamb chop bones to the floor. The mishcat is untethered and her craves know no bounds
