Waking up feeling like shit is always lovely :)
I really need to get down to the bellarine this w/e and do gutters / lawn / veg patch / another handrail but bro and SIL will be there and I can't be fucked with that. So insufferable.
Sounds like a good idea to stay away from that vortex of drama
Is that a cough I hear? Best you rest up.
It's raining, I really needed it to stop raining for the next 40 minutes.

MWave still haven't shipped my damn GPU. It has now been 9 days since I purchased it. I want it a week ago
Actually I really wanted it 3 months ago when I broke my current GPU, maybe that's why I'm so impatient now
I've been reinstalling my steam library onto the new hard drives, but it was saturating my entire connection, so I limited it to 1Mbps while I was doing other things. But I forgot to turn it off before I went to sleep.... So this morning I woke up to it having only downloaded 1 or 2gb... I swear as soon as I move out and can safely afford (and am actually eligible for) gigabit, I am going for it.
Another semi related ungratefulness rant: I have been trying to convince them to upgrade us to at least a 100Mbps connection almost since I moved in (we currently have 50), but when I've raised it, they just send an IT bloke around to try and install an extender (for some reason I can't get it through to them that the problem isn't that we aren't achieving the speeds they pay for, it's that they don't have us on a high enough speed tier for 4 people, particularly with me being a little data hoarder). Also, because of their internet censorship device, he's never actually been able to figure out how to get it working. I'm actually pretty sure the orgs IT dept don't have the credentials for the censorship box, hence why the extender doesn't work.
Also I really fucked with their internet setup, and I removed their internet censorship device, bought my own router, and upgraded all the wiring to cat6. If they send their IT man around again, he'll realise what I did and probably try to either replace my router or seize control of it, and reinstall the censorship box. The old router was kneecapping our speeds, and then the censorship box was quadrupling our ping, so that's probably a worse outcome than sucking it up and dealing with it.
