If you’re out and about and you notice someone with earphones in their ears, singing, is Asian and short. Good chance it’s likely me. Fiddy fiddy chance you can say Hi and freak out a stranger or freak me out because of my anxiety. The choice is yours! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thinking I'll take off tomorrow for another one of my overnight weekend roadtrip adventures to get out of my apartment. I quite enjoyed driving along listening to my audiobook on my last one to Swan Hill rather than my usual Spotify playlists.

Not sure where to head this time though.. time to consult Ye Olde Google Maps.

Ordered a little portable handheld massage gun thing to take with me to axe throwing tournaments to stop muscles getting so stiff by the end of the day. Arrived within a day haha and it feels super solid and well made, pretty happy for the price :)

Had the craziest time just now trying to buy a pair of uggs (or indeed anything close).
First outlet had the delivery driver doing wild things with the truck so you couldn't get near the place.
Second outlet's prices were eyewatering.
Decided to give Rivers a go and roadworks around the area had blocked off the entrance.
DFO was my last shot and I got a nice pair for about the price I was wanting, as well as a non-black top at the Big Girls' Blouse outlet.
Did a quick top up shop on the way home and am now flooped on the couch.

It's all fun and excitement at my place this afternoon. I have totalled up all my bank interest in preparation for my tax return (thanks high interest rates, I guess). My budget for the next year has been finalised and the form to change the amount of super salary sacrifice has been completed. Next up is changing the cat's litter & poop scooping the backyard. How's everyone else's Friday going?

Shit. I’m over work. My boss is a dick and I’m stressed to the max. But tinyest is happy, and we got some mates coming around for dinner so that’s exciting.

Miss Meow just bullied me into feeding her and Mr Woof early. I am too soft.

My big sister (who lives in Cairns) just sent me this with a ‘wish you were here’ message

It is taking every ounce of my willpower to not jump on a plane. If I leave now, I can still make it in time for schnapps.

The original town name for Bendigo (Sandhurst) is superior. There. I said it.

I'm trying to say to myself you're overthinking it, it's not corporate bs, politics gone mad, and incompetent leadership. But everytime a frowny little wise girl show up in my head and go 'you know it is'

And… apparently water will be back in soon after I suffered all that. Current plans… Coffee and pancakes.

Edit: I must be nuts this morning. Went to the wrong cafe. Got a nice oat latte out of sheer embarrassment. Got to the right cafe. Forgot I wanted something else rather than the pancakes. Saw it wasn’t on the menu, so ordered a mushroom toastie.

Am sadly disappoint. Had better. Rawr.

Ok where’s jezb87 is he here? Did anyone let him know we’ve moved on. Is he under another name? I don’t recognise people when they change their name’s here compared to the name they on reddit DT (so far as I know it’s just one person)
