Friday the 13th :D
Great weather today, so Mabel decided to get cracking on some of those summer jobs of hers
That is adorable!
That’s fair. She knows she’s gotta start pulling her weight!
It’s about time. She’s 9 months behind on rent (never paid a cent, actually) and keeps eating us out of house and home
Oh, those are some excellent puppy eyes! I’d be unable to do anything other than obey her every whim!
No one is immune and she knows it too
seems like pet pics are in demand
here’s a study in grey taken not five minutes ago
They’re so glamourous 🥰 I feel like they were definitely princes or kings in a past life
Ted’s a bum biter and Bill’s a sneaky little bastard so it’s very possible.
❤️❤️❤️ those beautiful boys!
Bless Bill and Ted!!!
I’ve been meaning to ask, are they Nebelungs? Or just domestic long haired greys?
Bill is a Neeb, Ted is a Persian long hair 🙂
Ah ha! Thank you!! 🙌🏼
Oh my god they’re so fluffy!
I think I’m going to have my own work Christmas party tonight. Being self-employed shouldn’t mean I miss out, right? The co-working space did a little Christmas lunch thing earlier in the week but it sucked, so my need to be drinking merrily to toast the end of the work year has not been satisfied. I was going to ask some friends to join for company but it’s so last minute.
Nothing too extravagant because I have to foot the bill for this one. A nice burger with a pint of beer somewhere would go down a treat.
just make sure you dont have too much to drink and sexually assault a colleague. Nothing worse than having to sit yourself down and discipline yourself for being too suggestive with yourself.
or being too touchy feely
“Tinybreak I told you, stop touching me there!” “Sorry tinybreak, your just so handsome, and its such a nice night!” “Aww Tinybreak, you always know what to say!”
Sounds fair to me! Give us a heads up and I’m sure you’ll get a bunch of virtual cheers!
Back to Melbs today then looking after aunts’ doggo tm night.
Will be nice to catch up with the randos at the dog park. I’m guessing Hambam will be his usual self and try to herd inanimate objects / refuse to leave the park.
We! Demand! Hambam!
Also some day I still hope you can extricate butters for yourself.
HAMBAM!!! NEED PICS OF HAMBAM WHEN YOU SEE HIMMMMM 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
if I fits I sits
You can see his little smile
Oooh, your rug looks like one of those optical illusion ones - is it convincing?!
It is and it does at a certain angle and distance! Maybe a meter away or so, crouching helps lol. We use it to cover the ethernet cable haha
I have now finished my assignment and module quiz which are not due until Sunday - which means I have officially gone from being behind to being ahead, yay!! Plus I now only have the interesting subject to do, not the horrible one I was really hating doing. In celebration I present you all a bonus wattlebird photo, as seen in my assignment.

Well done!! Whoo!
Beautiful photo, their colours are so pretty 😍
Yay, go you. 🎆
Fucking trespassers on Mernda/Hurstbridge line…can we just have a train network where this shit doesn’t happen please? I’m paying $10 a day, least we deserve is a train network that works for that price.
My brother is a train driver that occasionally does that line as well as others. Just last week, he was driving the Upfield line. A brainless idiot driver steering by google maps missed a turning onto a road going parallel to the line. The driver then drove ONTO the tracks and proceeded north using those instead of the road. The car made it about half way to the next station before getting stuck, as train tracks are not roads and are not intended to be driven on in a normal car - even a four wheel drive has trouble. Its a width thing. The car was then sideswiped by trains going up the line AND down the line - the car ended up nearly fully crushed and derailed one of the trains. Fortunately no one was killed, and it wasn’t rush hour, but nothing that happened was the train network’s fault. You can’t stop pure damned fools from being fools - but we all have to wear the consequences.
HOLY SHIT. That is next level.
He sure has some curl your hair stories to tell.
Today’s random appreciation/positivity: I’m thankful for the people working in any kind of retail position at the moment. Every shop I’ve been in has been in complete and utter chaos, and I can’t imagine how stressful it is
I’m thankful to any retail workers reading this, and those that aren’t :)
These are good words. And a sentiment that’s all too easily forgotten at this time of year. 👼😇👼 You are a nice person Baku.
I’m one of those weirdo types who loved customer service. I miss retail work. I could see myself doing it again, only you can’t live off the pay. I liked this time of year: Yes it was super busy, but people were mostly pretty positive and the days flew by.
I enjoy the “hi what can I get for ya” of hospo/fast food, and the one interaction nature of it. Seriously, I could do that for hours without wearing out. Which I found really odd considering I’m very introverted, probably antisocial, and have abysmal interpersonal skills
Nah, it makes perfect sense. People who are introverted or have issues relating to people are usually fine for this sort of work. The customer comes to you, and the list of things that they will require is manageable. There’s a formula to it. I thought of it as playing tracks on a CD to the customer. Your job is to know which track to play to them. Far easier than being required to think up conversation topics on people you need to approach in a social setting.
“I am a sausage. A potato sausage” I believe that is called a croquette Dear, go back to sleep.
TheVoid cannot be bothered doing anything complicated with ladders or walking across paths. Enjoy an artistic redesign of his Emotional Support Box.
Typical voids these days. Can’t even be bothered bringing bad luck and murder. Smh my head. What’s the world coming to these days?
Miss Meow put her head on the escape key and made a window full screen, but that’s as bad as it’s gotten here too. Maybe Friday the 13th being unlucky means black cats get the day off?
looks like that box caught the 13ths though
Thoroughly! I’ll need to confiscate (and replace) it soon, but not just yet
How long has that box been around for?
Pretty soon it’ll be confetti by the looks of things.
10 days
mmmmmmmmmmmmITSCHAINSAW TIIIIIIIIIIIME
^let’s see if today is the day I can start it up without screaming GAYYY MARRIAAAGE^
Pop-popppp!
Been a long week.
Grabbed 2 guitar pedals as an early xmas present for myself, which I’m looking forward to playing with tonight.
I’m so drained. Haven’t had a chance to play another gig since the first one because work has really taken it out of me.
I try to practice after work but it can be hard when you don’t sound very good because you’re tired.
1 more week to go.
And here’s to a relaxing weekend ❤️
I know that feeling, making more mistakes and forgetting parts.
What pedals did you get?
Exactly. Then you think “fuck this I’m not feeling it, may as well stop”
Wmd geiger counter Strymon big sky
Check out the sound samples of the geiger counter. It’s insane lol
Cheers everyone. I am allowing myself some scotch🥃
Home. Showered. Wine. Left my grumbles at the after work pub session.
CHEERS
🍷🍷🍷
No scotch for me yet, but I’ll cheers you with some coconut and pineapple bundys. Cheers!

I got paid for my tech support session, so it’s all above board and legit. It would be a good bit of side money if I can do it regularly.
Anyone can sign up, but this might be a good opportunity for Baku if you have the time. It’s an hour pit of your day here and there and you can make up to $70 if you’re willing to run the session https://youngster.co/
ohohoooooo
this looks interesting
I’ve got 4 sessions lined up I can do, so at $40 a pop that’s a potential $160 I could make for some quick work this weekend
A wattlebird just showed up and I was able to get a decent photo for my assignment. It’s a bit of a relief, I was starting to think birds had abandoned my garden entirely.
