The view from client office
That's a view and a half.
Weird story. Went to St. patricks cathedral with an ex and her aunt (who was a devout catholic). She was bangin' on about how god was everywhere 'like the internet'. 'In walls, in the air'. A few hours earlier she asked me to set up her wifi / chuck in the router password on her phone to use ex's internet at ex's home.. so I asked her if god forgets his password too.
Didn't go down too well.

I went to St Patrick's in November, visiting from Adelaide. An amazing building, very beautiful interior
Happy Lunar New Year 🧧
It's the year of the ssssnake 🐍
ooh that's me! I'm a snek 🐍
Okay I’m going to officeworks. What pens do you want?
Edit: ok I’m back from the shop. I have pastel highlighters, 72 pack of Derwents, erasable ink pens some with double eraser, 4 colour pens enough for everyone, a Windsor and Newton purple, fancy green fountain pen, pack of pilot pens, and an mega multicolour pen. Also box of Bics because they are an icon, and everyone gets a multi pack of coloured post-its because they were near the cashier and who can resist them.

Good sirs, if you are going to have the balls to charge 25 dollars for a Calabrese salad then, for the love of god, the tomatoes better not be CRUNCHY. And the cheap arse everyday toms from the supermarket. 😡 It's only three ingredients FFS.
This is what I get for thinking I am going to have a little early treat because I have been disciplined this year so far. Back to home cooked.
trying out the new telephoney up close on chillo:
I'm actually impressed.

I made the mistake of looking at the forecast for next week 🥵
phone up and running. Oppo A18. Pretty painless. Not bad for $180.
First piccy:
Nothing to write home about but it works.

New phone probably arriving today. As a kid would've been excited but not these days so got an el' cheapo crappy one (oppo something or rather).
Old iphone refuses to charge I think because of bringing into the ocean so many times and the charging port has corroded lol. Worth it though. Had to be replaced anyway but I'm glad it kicked the bucket doing what it loved.
I know that you mean. The excitement has pretty much evaporated for me as well.

Yay, I have clearance to "piss off" early today. Just have to make a site visit quickly, spend a little time there and go home from there.
Should be home before 2:30 today.
Just in time for the cricket and a late lunch!
Ssss Sssssss 🐍

I get the whole pokemon thing now.
I've watched a handful of episodes. Can definitely see how it became so popular.
Season 1 episode 17: The Pokemon are stranded on an island and they all talk to each other lol
I'm running a local version of the new Deepseek "Ai" and I'm really fucking impressed.
This is a bigger deal than I thought.

Rode into work today for the first time and it's a pleasant ride. This is also comparing a 15km ride to a 33km ride into the city. I also don't have to cart a laptop to work, and I'm not towing a trailer full of kids which I usually do on the bike
finally got to a ripe strawberry before whatever is eating them (despite being net'ed I might ad). God it was good! Only 1, and not massive but it was so sweet and flavorful how do you ever go back to store brought ones after that?!
You don't. Homegrown strawbs have spoiled me for life. As has homegrown asparagus, tomatoes, lettuce, cucumbers and green beans. And quite a lot of other veg that I haven't grown for a while now. But home strawbs a pretty damn special.

Everyday, I wake up and I feel like I haven't really woken up until night time. So I go the whole day metaphorically staring into space.
Maybe I need to start taking iron tablets again.

Friend: You should get married someday. You seem like the type.
Me: Why?
Friend: So you can give us red pockets. 🧧Married people are supposed to give them out.

Can't sleep, clown will eat me.
At least I'm up early, and hopefully I'll sleep tonight.
yesterday I cheesemared about assassins in dark robes ( mr seagoon got them tho ) , today it was war/bombing/soldiers coming to my neighbourhood
i should probably not have cheesebread in the evening and should stop watching news for a bit
While I'm sorry you had a cheesemare (go Mr Seagoon though!), I am so pleased to see the word cheesemare, haha!

Hopefully a nice easy day. Hopefully..
Good night everyone, love you all, sweet dreams 😘
I didn’t know that Baci chocolates come with a quote inside. This one I had was this: “Love life more than its logic, for only then will you grasp its meaning”
Maybe eating discount 7/11 sandwiches two days in a row wasn't the best idea. Either that or something else is definitely setting off the fart machine big time today
