I wish I had your level of sleep. Woken up very early this morning by one of my smoke alarms making a low battery warning sound. I swear that anytime this happens with any of the alarms, it’s always in the middle of the night. Then took ages to get back to sleep. Alarm was neighbour’s dog barking, the next door house is doing some sort of the renovation work and as soon as the trades turn up in the morning, the dog starts going off. Just a terrible night of sleep really.
Feeling like I’ve got jetlag from a 1 hour time change. Just did a pre-lunch walk in the sun which has made me feel better. Timed well as ominous clouds approach.
Going for an evening walk before dinner as it’ll be a while before it’s light at this time. Love daylight saving, I will miss it.
Really? I don’t see it all that often, except maybe in the CBD (Starbucks etc).
Needed a change of scenery with doing work (going a bit troppo doing WFH all the time) so brought my laptop to a local cafe. This cafe is more coffee and small eats rather than full-on brunch, so thought it would be fine. Half the tables in here aren’t taken.
It’s interesting how working / studying from cafes in Australia isn’t really a thing. I get why (table turnover). I remember when I was in the US it was very common to walk into a cafe and see a lot of people with laptops. Didn’t seem to be an issue in Japan either.
I support your quitting endeavour. You can do it!
Haas? Then yes! For Shepard, I feel those are good for longer but I don’t like them as much.
Skies darkening. Thunder in the distance. Heavy rain radar blob heading my way. It’s been a while.
This weather also matches my mood, I’ve had the worst long weekend. Need an evening of self-care with background rain.
Makes sense. I’m such a rule follower!
Just witnessed this moronic person next to me use his phone on 5G while we were descending into Sydney. I don’t think he switched his phone to flight mode at all during the flight, was just waiting for the reception to kick in during the flight. I wouldn’t call myself an anxious flyer but I really didn’t like witnessing this behaviour. Maybe this is more normal than I think?
This coffee ain’t doing it. And the tiredness will continue for a couple of days more. 7am flight to Sydney tomorrow, and another early-ish morning on Wednesday before coming home. Easter break will be for sleeping.
Unbelievable. Screw ‘em, not worth working for if they do that.
I have the most refreshing cross-breeze coming through my place right now. Getting rid of all of that stagnant inside heat.
What are the best hot cross buns that money can buy? I’m enjoying this brioche choc chip variety from Woolies but thinking there must be better.
The last warm night of summer… maybe. Bring on the chill! 🥶 I will regret these words in about a month or so from now.
Man dies falling from hot air balloon in Preston. So tragic. I was thinking of getting a ticket soon too.
Re Cigarettes After Sex, one of their songs blew up on TikTok recently hence the sudden popularity. I was confused about 2 Rod Laver shows as well.
I did that thing when you accidentally pour too much scotch in the glass but I drank it all and now I’m buzzing
Do they fit in a standard roll holder? Not that I know what a standard holder is, but mine don’t go very far off the wall.
Plumber said he would come after lunch and give me an hour notice. This is after he was supposed to come last week and just never showed up. Then it took him 3 days to message me acknowledging that he didn’t show.
It’s 4pm now, still no news. Won’t be giving him another chance. Uggh why is organising any trade always so painful?
