Massive day today. Worked non stop from 7:40 to 3:40 including a whole lot of new shit and new requirements to my job that, while making a lot of sense and genuinely good for service delivery, involve a level of mental load/energy that’s… not exactly what I signed up for. I need more training and preparation. It kind of happened so suddenly that I didn’t have time to formulate a response, and ask for reasonable accommodation/support. I’m definitely willing to give it a go and see if it improves things, but I just really didn’t need that extra burden this week 😣
Anyway… I then had to go help a friend out with some things and ended up having a long chat in the car, really was good to unload but I ended up really exhausted and emotional. Despite my pledge to cook more at home and save money I gave in and ordered the two-large-pizza-plus-garlic-bread special at my local for 37.50. I’m reminding myself that it’ll be enough for dinner tonight, brekkie tomorrow, dinner tomorrow and maybe even lunch the day after. Thankfully lunch is catered tomorrow at some training thing I gotta do. I’d really rather catch up with work but it’s mandatory training so oh well…
I’m thinking after I come back from my break I’m gonna have to ration out my energy a bit better at work in terms of in person interactions. Might need to start requesting one day from home even though I genuinely want to work away from home for the work/life separation - I’m just gonna be really exhausted with all the masking and social interaction.
Mrs is channel surfing and skipped past “farmer wants a wife”, when a strange thought popped into my head: good on 7 for getting some farmers laid. Working a farm is tough as shit, it’s not like you can go to the pub every other night. Country towns are often small, people couple up quick outta school. So ignoring the reality tv show aspect I suppose it’s really a net positive hey.
I looooove tuxedo cats. That photo perfectly encapsulates how cute yet elegant they are. Please give Miss Mimi a little bop on her precious little head from me.
After a couple of years of self-imposed junk food ban I decided to stop for KFC on the way home. The electronic order board thingy had to be poked a few times before it deigned to take my order but otherwise worked well. But I noticed no one else that came in after me used them and just ordered at the counter. Was I doing the weird thing, or were they?
The wrap seemed smaller than I remember and much more cabbagey. The chips were undersalted and lacking even a hint of crunch. A bit underwhelming and I’ll be happy to abstain from fast food for another few years I think.
Haven’t had KFC in many years. I remember it being rubbish and don’t imagine it’s improved. Local chicken shops are so much better, and many of them do wraps and burgers as well as the standard rotisserie chicken. And chips are always fresh cooked. They can take my money instead.
I did not know wings (wicked or not) were a thing at KFC. I am afraid my menu knowledge is limited and I just looked for a picture of something that looked vaguely familiar🤣
There was something in ozbargain today about a large snack pack and I gotta be honest I’ve never been more sold on anything in my life for under 10 bucks!
Have you been vaccinated against whooping cough? Because whooping cough is a total snot machine. The first week is the most snot you have ever seen in your life, then after that it’s coughing.
said it before and I’ll say it again: Spotify users have better taste than apple music users (even though I AM an apple music fan). Nemo - Broke the Code, Joost - Europapa and Baby Lasagna - Rim Tim Tagi Dim have all moved into the global daily top 50. Wonder how far apple will be behind.
Crazy how a certain middle eastern country’s song isn’t up there despite receiving the second highest public vote. Most suspicious televote I have EVER seen.
Tried to make an appointment with my GP. On their website, they had a notice that they were moving to private billing only. And trying to pick a date- next appointment available is 27th May.
How do you abbreviate ‘breakfast’? I’ve seen cafes offer a ‘big breaky’ which I read as break-y. Others do ‘Brekkie’ which I seem fine with. And one place I saw does ‘Breakki’ which annoys me to no end for some reason.
As in Achy Breaky Heart? If so, then thou shalt be cast into the outer darkness and forced to listen to crap 80s and 90s pop sleaze until you reform your way of life, and (possibly) accept Jesus into your heart. I’m not fussed about the last bit. If it happens, it happens.
People like that should just move into an apartment. I don’t understand why people buy a house, then hate the trees, put concrete and paving from edge to edge of the block or put artificial grass. If you don’t want a garden there’s better housing options where you don’t have to get furious if a neighbours leaf blows into your yard.
