Melbourne

On tram home after trekking thru city shopping. I am DRIPPING. This tram is meant to be air conditioned, I think it's on its lowest setting 🥵🥵🥵

Got my power bill for the first 30 days of my tenancy. Could be worse, at first I was all SIXTY DOLLAS?! but then realised my previous two months at my old place (same provider and reseller) with zero AC use were 56 and 57 bucks each.

That first digit bias is real. Maybe using the AC won't be that pricey. Should see what the power usage is like after running it for >24hrs over Sun and today (so nice inside, even the bedroom is tolerable). 26C on economy mode, could be ok?

At least I'm saving about 10/week without gas and not needing to pay for water and hot water.

I am excited for vegables. Was strict meat and eggs for a week basically to kick start keto. Now tmrw morning I look forward to: 1 steak, 1 avo, 1 zucchini, and a half punnet of mushies. Cooked in butter. Have had like two salads in the last week but I'm missing veges. Going to keep up with one meal a day keto for the foreseeable future, just W more veg

I think the man and I have kept the economy going with a consumption of pies and coffee. Oh and beer.

I really miss my little dog and doona covers.

Let's see who wins today:

Place built in 1914, upstairs in shade no aircon. C'mon bby hit over 40's.

Winner gets an icypole and electrolytes.

TBBT.

I don't find picking on people funny

Waiting for the smoke detector people. Will they by some miracle make it within the assigned time slot this year?

Stay cool guys.

Seems like the cool change is here! Or at least it's much colder outside than it is inside (32°C).

Edit: It's raining in the west now!

Looking for a bit of advice from you good folk.

I am under very heavy suggestion to undertake some form of mindful, de-stressing activity that is not running or cycling (which I already do but tend to get a bit competitive with myself about).

Having never done either, can someone with practical experuence of both give me some idea of relative pros and cons of pilates and yoga? or what the hell all the different yoga types are and what is best for a novice??

edit: you guys rock, thanks heaps for all the info and ideas!

Couriers please you fucking numpties

Fuckin incompetent couriers 🖕

Before anybody tries to defend them them, about 10 metres away is a gigantic, vehicle sized, wide open gate he could've used. But he couldn't be arsed

In other news I got a pamphlet in my letterbox about "labour indoctrinating children with gender-fluidity" yeah... Righto lol. Honestly the sort of person with the intelligence to leave a parcel on the side of the footpath is definitely the kind of person that believes "immigrants are ruining the economy!", "labour indoctrinate$ children with the gay!", and "petter Dutton will save the economy!". Wouldn't surprise me if Mr. Courier please was the one that stuck it in there

Smoke alarm dude may have been on time, but he moved the alarms for the third time in as many years. I refuse to believe the regulations have changed that often. They are now all out of non ladder reach so I can't hit the button when they get set off by humidity. Four times so far this afternoon. TheVoid literally shat himself.

Mm. 4 hours sleep, already warm as fuck in my room.

Do not like

Sounds like it's trying to rain outside

Why is it still going to be 38 at 7pm when I finish work and need to go buy groceries 😭 I thought I would be safe
