Electric, better clean

Sandwiches, especially with toasted bread.

I’ve received 0 drops of rain and it looks like the rain band is dying out. So crap, my garden is tinder dry.

Had a beach day yesterday after barely going all summer. Sand, sun and ocean waves fix all problems. Also perfect temp yesterday and barely any breeze. And caught this amazing sunset. Followed by best sleep I’ve had in weeks.

I want to go again today. Wish ocean was closer.

The “bro”’s were definitely flying around in their argument haha

Drama at the gym! Two guys yelling at each other, thought it was going to turn into a punch on. Others broke it up. That’s the first time I’ve ever seen anything like that in a gym, it’s usually a happy place.

Great find! My bike is from that same store in Prahran, bought many years ago. It’s a good store with high quality bikes.

I feel deeply uncomfortable going to this funeral today. I really hate funerals, but it’s about being there to support a friend.

Are those Hey Hey it’s Saturday plushies? sooo cute haha. I see Tigger too.

I’m so cold in the office today. I dress for the temperature outside but the air-con in this place is ridiculously strong. Plus there’s a draft exactly where I sit as well making it worse. It would have to be under 20 degrees in here. It’s nice right when you come back from outside, but not so much once you’ve cooled down. Need to remember to pack an office jacket for hot days.

I made breakfast, lunch and dinner (and coffees / drinks) at home while WFH today. My usual approach is not to clean up after each meal and leave it all to the end of the day. By the time I’ve finished making dinner and eating, my kitchen is a bomb site and takes a loooong time to clean up. It’s a real drainer and crappy end to the day. Trying to save money not buying food out as much but that means the kitchen mess multiplies. Thankfully no cooking at all tomorrow, I’ve got enough leftovers. I need a break!

Ewwwww, this I do not miss about working in offices. My co-working has a separate unisex toilet, I use that. So do a few other people, and the ventilation is quite poor in there, so opening the door sometimes comes with a smelly surprise.

Definitely under, I hate the feeling and sound of scratching through clothes. And it’s never satisfying. I’ve got a back scratcher for that area.

Mustang man. 4:45am. 😴

Motorcycle man’s place is for lease which is great, but somehow someone worse had appeared.

Terrible sleep but this morning is feeling kinda autumnal so it’s put me in a good mood. Leaves are already starting to change too.

Check your employment contract too - it should say when they agree to pay your salary and when they can withhold payment.

Just sent a pretty forceful sounding / legally threatening email to a client that still owes me a couple of grand. 4 months overdue invoice, all kindly worded follow up emails totally ignored. Spoke to him on the phone a few weeks back, said he’d pay by the following week but never did. Just taking the piss now, and I’m angry.

Give me my money, then they’re getting blacklisted for good. There’s more work to be done for this client (and I’m letting them think things will continue) but I’ve decided I won’t be doing it. I don’t want to work with people that have zero respect for what I do. I have the authority to say no, take your business with maybe payment elsewhere, and I plan to use it.

Same, but around 5 - 5:30am for me. I’ve been researching why I keep having interrupted sleep and I’ve put it down to stress. But my life has a baseline level of stress which I’m pretty much always under, so I don’t know how to reduce it below that to stop this from happening.

Yep it’s so annoying, happened to me the other day on the train. Loud music and because it was so loud the person playing was screaming to talk to the person they were with.

Also people having loud phone conversations for everyone to hear.

And smelly foods being consumed in train.

I remember the bliss of Tokyo PT, no loud music, no loud talking, no phone convos, no food, the way it should be.

I got some thunder claps and huge raindrops but never got going unfortunately.
