The afternoon sleepiness is upon me.

Coffee not helping.

2 hours of meetings on the horizon.

Grant me strength oh mighty Odin.

Mice are so cute!!! Ugh, their little paws, their little noses, their cute eyes. This course is great just for doing health checks on mice tbh

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 1 hour ago

They smell and they shit everywhere. That's why cats were invented.

[-] StudChud@aussie.zone 2 points 45 minutes ago

Hehehe yeah it shat in my hand, but it's cuteness made it worth it

[-] underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 7 points 2 hours ago

If the rain and wind could hold off until say 9pm that'd be great. I'm meant to be doing outdoor cooking with kids this evening.

[-] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 9 points 3 hours ago

Odd question, but do ya'll ever plan out other lives for yourself? Occasionally I'll just sit on realestate and and look shit up. Might be like "alright, if I split with the mrs can I afford to buy a unit? where am I gonna live?" or "Fuckit, lets all move up to bright! I hate it here, alright what can we afford?"

I find it really therapeutic for some reason. These alternate lives I'll never live out.

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 5 points 1 hour ago

I sometimes wonder what it’s be like to be a dog or cat when I see them.

I always thought dreams were my alternate lives in the multiverse. That's how I look at it anyway

[-] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 4 points 1 hour ago

Frickin hope not. Cause my alternate selves die a ton and also have a bunch of orgasmless sex.

[-] Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 4 points 2 hours ago

I sometimes find my daydreaming self inserting myself into works of fiction - such a Sherlock Holmes, the Vorkosiverse etc. Probably a symptom of deep psychosis.

[-] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 5 points 1 hour ago

I am OFTEN on the bridge of a warship protecting the earth. Usually heroically telling the crew to abandon ship as I fight impossible odds bravely sacrificing myself.

Good to know its not just me.

[-] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 points 1 hour ago

That's so cool - what's your battle soundtrack?!

[-] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 2 points 58 minutes ago

Usually just a bunch of alarms, explosions ect. Despite the lack of sound in space it sure is a loud experience. I'm CONVINCED its linked to my anxiety cause I dissociate hard.

Looking at houses in locations I'd love to live in but can't afford is a real one. Also, I was deeply fantasising about moving to NYC when I travelled there a couple of years back, asking people I met there about their experience in moving, even though I knew deep down that I'd never do it. It's nice to dream!

[-] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 5 points 3 hours ago

I've definitely planned out what to do with large lotto wins I will never have. Looked at moving overseas or interstate. I've considered moving into a unit right in the centre of Melbourne so I can enjoy all the activities there, or moving to a big block of land in the middle of nowhere and fixing up a rundown place.

I think it is a healthy thing to do, as long as you are not doing it with rose-coloured glasses and making yourself unhappy with your current circumstances. If you are doing it realistically it often ends up highlighting things that are important to you - things you would miss if you made different choices, and sometimes things you really want that you are actually able to do now.

[-] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 points 1 hour ago

I do the lottery thing regularly. I don't resent my current life, but love to imagine what it would be like to not worry about bills and just live life.

Personally I'd have a place in like Daylesford or similar. Trees, pond, dogs, fireplace etc.

Doing nothing would be blissful.

[-] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 5 points 3 hours ago

I had so many things I was going to do this morning, and here we are after Noon and they remain undone.

[-] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 5 points 3 hours ago

YES!!!! F'ING YES sir I will follow you into battle on this one. 100X the spread that Vegemite is!

[-] Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 5 points 3 hours ago

Are you trying to start a riot?

[-] bacon@aussie.zone 4 points 3 hours ago

we ARE going to gather at dusk

[-] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 5 points 3 hours ago

Just staying facts.

I tried all the 'mites' apart from the UK Marmite, and so far prefer Promite.

[-] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 5 points 3 hours ago
[-] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 4 points 3 hours ago
[-] underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 5 points 3 hours ago

I have to admit that I'm a non-Vegemite-mite virgin. Vegemite's great and I've never been tempted to stray.

[-] dumblederp@aussie.zone 3 points 2 hours ago

I use miso these days.

[-] Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 4 points 3 hours ago

A mitey effort indeed.

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 3 hours ago

I love all the mites except Promite because that comes from Satan's ear holes.

[-] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 points 3 hours ago
[-] Eagle@aussie.zone 3 points 3 hours ago

Yep. But I do like vegemite too.

[-] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 points 3 hours ago

I like Vegemite too.

[-] mysticgreg@aussie.zone 3 points 3 hours ago

Shots fired.

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 7 points 4 hours ago
