      So we’re back to thinking ‘is this worth getting covid for?’ before we do anything again… yay.

    What aggrevates me is that if you agree to do something, actually fucking follow through.

    If you don’t want to, then just say so, instead of fucking me around for days.

    Fucks sake.

    Some people don’t understand that they’re fucking with someone’s life.

    Much less stress in the kitchen. Made a kickass mushroom and pea curry with cashew cream, and finally cooked up the cabbage (with possibly too much of ajwain seeds). Everything is clean and tidy and I don’t feel so overwhelmed. Success!

    I’m going to have another crack at Juice… 25% of the way through and not that impressed, seems like a lot of heavy handed exposition atm. But I’ll keep going

    E: nice to listen to even 2 minutes of rain, so calming ☺️

    Well that’s enough news for today. Clive Palmer has a new political party, called Trumpets of Patriots. No this is not a Beetota advocate headline.

      I really hope he fails in spectacular fashion, there’s no place in Australia for a trump like party to exist.

      Also I’m sick of his ads on tv.

      Edit: Just to add he was forced to use this name because he failed to register his United Party name in time.

    For the fungus gnat fighters, I got these sticky sheets in the post today and cut them up into traps approximately the same dimension as these Bunnings ones.

    Works out to like 8¢/trap (or less) instead of $1.29/trap. Being able to make dozens means you can get way more coverage. Also customised the size to be wider for my larger plants, and want to experiment with different shapes just for fun.

    They seem to be working, too, in just a few hours many have already caught gnats.

    I am overwhelmed

    So I have to decide between uni A and uni B. I am currently enrolled in uni B. Uni A is 20 minutes closer than uni B. Uni A also will give me a scholarship which would be about half a year of pay at my casual retail job. They also offer paid employment a few days a week next year whilst doing a project that’s part of the coursework. This is seemingly a no-brainer, but part of me just wants to stay at uni B? Uni B has a few perks in terms of subject selection which could help with employment, but uni A is pretty much guaranteed experience and employment. Uni A will only let me teach two learning areas, where one I wouldn’t feel comfortable teaching unless I absolutely had to, but that learning area is more employable. The Uni A option will allow me to support myself better financially, but I don’t think I’m ready to be thrown into a classroom so soon without any supervision.

    I also have to remember that I’m not stuck into any of these, but I have to make a decision on which uni for this year by the end of this week.

    This overwhelming paragraph represents the state of my mind right now.

    Then I have to pick between piano and guitar lessons because I can’t keep doing both. I think keeping piano is something I want to do because it is relaxing and I wanna learn jazz piano. I can figure out piano more on my own, although having lessons will mean more accountability. But I feel like I shouldn’t give up guitar because it hasn’t been that long and I haven’t given it my best shot? My pinky finger refuses to cooperate, and I don’t know if it ever will.

      You’ve thought about the pros and cons for each. I would try to push it to the back of my mind for a few days and do other things- let it percolate away in your subconscious.

      Come back to it on Friday or whenever you need to decide, and I reckon you’ll know what you want.

    Melbcat still takes her breaks in the other room and cuddles a lot but she seems to have perked up a bit. She’s often finessing me for treats and I think she can see them - I shook out a few crumbs which she ignored but when I placed a full treat in front of her she went for it instantly.

    She also jumped over a small box to go look out the screen door.

    Person walking around co-working office with no shoes on. I’ve got no issue if you take your shoes off under your desk, but then walking around the place with no shoes, nope. It’s a workplace, not your home.

      Last receptionist would take her shoes off at her desk and then stick her feet out from under her desk. WHYYY did she think customers would be okay with seeing that?

      Though she also sewed at her desk, played phone games and stole about $3k worth of stuff, so clearly she wasn’t quite the professional she tried to pretend she was.

      You might be able to remind them that it’s an OHS issue being barefoot assuming you have a policy in place.

      If you’ve worked there longer than them you could say “hey. I wouldn’t walk around bare foot. I’ve seen some things on this carpet”.

      I worked in an office where one of the systems guys refused to wear shoes. Hr made him sign a waiver. I don’t really care about no shoes. I don’t find it gross.

    Reference and police checks are underway for the new role. All goes well should have an offer shortly.

    Excited, cause it’s something new. Nervous cause it’s something new. Anxious, cause I really don’t want to meet new people.

        I’ll have a few months to suss things out and hopefully fall into a nice groove.

        The new dept seems to be on the younger side, which is fine. I can deal with younger than older, enteenched
