Today was a new record, woke up at 7:30 but didn't leave the bed - not even to go to the bathroom - until 6pm. I have completely checked out of all my obligations and requirements today... wasn't gonna make me feel better with no food or water, but I don't feel substantially worse either.

At least I've got dinner with me now - a nice hearty Moroccan tagine packed with veggies, and some pappadums - dragged the laptop back to the bedroom and gonna binge watch stuff until I fall asleep. Maybe I'll start with the movie CODA since I've been on an apple+ run lately (๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ, of course)

I think this is my body just going "you sorted out the car and job. NOW RELAX"

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 6 points 8 months ago

Do you have an actual tagine because I want one but they're so awkward to store in a tiny kitchen?

Wow. Thatโ€™s impressive.

Sometimes you have to listen to your body and let it rest when it needs it.

Dinner sounds yummy!

Itโ€™ll be even more impressive if you can get to sleep at a reasonable time tonight.

It's crazy how much power a dream can have on us.

Had one with my old man in it and I was a kid.

Felt the exact same terror I felt when I was that age. There's this look he'd give me and I knew I was absolutely fucked.

I woke up semi hyper ventilating.

Even after all this time, even as a grown man, you never forget that stuff I guess.

It's that time of the evening. There's more work that needs to be done, but that's next week's problem.

Now it's time for wine and pizza

If I were Prime Minister, I would make it law that if a Public Holiday falls on a Tuesday/Wednesday or Thursday, than the rest of the week is also a day off. Who has the motivation to work today?

Good news: the auction place will take most of the furniture that can't fit into the new place that I don't want.
Bad news: I have to take it myself.
Good news: it should fit into the new car, and my lawn guy and occasional helper will drop by and help me load up the car.
Bad news: trying to get my Google profile for the business verified and none of the methods work. This is frustrating as I'm using the practice room as a sorting hub after I cleared it yesterday.
Good news: I stress cleared the pile of crap I scooped off the floor and slung into a very large bag and most of it is now in the bin.
Bad news: I have a headache bordering on a migrane and I really can't stop to indulge it.
Good news: the old cooking chocolate seems to be helping. ;)

When my husband and I started going out together, sometime last century, we would grab some f&cs and sit in a park somewhere. We'd declare it "International Fish & Chip Saturday Day". So my question of the day is what would your International celebration day be and when?

[-] dumblederp@aussie.zone 10 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

I read that ampersand as censorship and wondered how you could grab some fucks and sit in a park.

New snack unlocked:

A cracker, put on some franks hawt sauce, put on cheddar cheese, put on sriracha, put on a little bit of spring onion, put on finely sliced chilli, put on a dollop of plum sauce and a dollop of sweet soy (all very small amounts). Bit of cracked black pepper on top...

Where you been all my life.

@Seagoon_ @melbourne So I stopped by Priceline while I was at the shops to pick up some foundation.

On my way home, I noticed that I got the one that's a shade darker than I normally get.

Then when I got home, I realised that I had made the exact same mistake last time.

The moral of the story? If you're going to be a careless idiot, it pays to at least be consistent.

I need some advice because I lack the most basic of social awareness:

I've been texting someone, only a couple of times so far, but I have just realised I've spelled their name wrong the two times I've used it (has a j instead of a y. The y-version is the one I've always seen so I guess I skipped over it). I feel bad and I know it makes me feel awkward if someone gets my name wrong. I want to apologise but then I feel like if I bring it up, I'm bringing attention to something they maybe not noticed?

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 8 points 8 months ago

It's been noticed. Everyone notices their name spelt wrong. Say nothing. Its only been twice not two years. Continue using the correct spelling.

[-] Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 5 points 8 months ago

They certainly noticed you spelling their name wrong, but it sounds like a common error. I'm sure they get it a lot and don't care. I'd bring it up light heartedly, like: "oops I just noticed I was spelling your name wrong, sorry! Do you get that a lot?"

[-] dumblederp@aussie.zone 5 points 8 months ago

My weird name gets spelled wrong a lot, just say sorry you were using the wrong spelling, you're not the first to get it wrong, you'll be one of a few that say something. I no longer correct people who fuck my name up, some people have been getting it wrong for years.

Just learned what a Tesla cybertruck looks like. Itโ€™s comical. I think Elon must have presented the designers with a crayon drawing he made when he was 6 years old, and said โ€˜this, but in silverโ€™.
