Pizza in oven. Beer in hand..planning to watch the game here at home and maybe potter around cleaning in between quarters.
I did want to go down to the local for the atmosphere but damn I am in pretty urgent need of introvert time. Went out this morning and managed to lose my favourite shopping bags on the bus among other brainfog disasters. Internet friends could someone tell me that's ok to stay here on my own and it doesn't make me a loser?
Had a radox bath last night but the liquid stuff. Turned into a bubble bath which I didn't think would happen. last time I had one of those I would've been 5yo or so. 10/10. Now in the market for some little yellow rubber ducks to round out the experience.
My neighbour started his Harley at 6am this morning. It’s like starting a chainsaw at that time - you don’t do it. Took me a while to fall back asleep and now I’m tired and grumpy. I’m up and sitting in the sun to get this bad mood out of me.
I need to block a subreddit, because I feel called out lol. r/crappymusic, because the commenters just hate when people express themselves. Humans make music, idk what makes it crappy. I don't make music of course, but I write, and I feel all my insecurities are heightened when I see those negative jerks shitting on people enjoying themselves on stage.
Idk, I was considering putting some of my poetry to music or a beat, and maybe consider doing like, beat poetry - because I so desperately admire the people who do that - but I feel so stupid even considering it when I'm afraid of being utterly rejected.
I suppose I need to work on my confidence and forget what people may think, but it's hard to let go of all the voices that tell me that I'm already a failure.
I probably just need to delete fucking Reddit too sigh
$8 for a soy cappuccino, well fuck you too Perth airport. But I'm the sucker who paid it so can't complain can I.
Developed a bit of a sore throat after talking myself hoarse to a friend yesterday, I shall be drowning it in the requisite throat lozenges + meds + hot water and honey when I get back because I'll be fucked if I get the flu again...
Back neighbours’ party has been going since before the GF started. They’ve descended into drunken scream singing, add some screaming kids to the mix, it’s so loud. Got my massive speaker going to drown them out.
Just landed on the tarmac but I have checked bags to wait for as well... Likelihood of avoiding footy crowds if I take the Skybus and tram seems low if the game'll be over by 5...
E: uber too pricey, gonna take my chances with PT, wish me luck 🙃
E2: exiting the cbd... scattering of glum-looking folks around with red and white scarves...
E3: forgot the 48 stops right out the MCG, here comes a tramload of sad Swans supporters, at least it means it's unlikely there'll be inspectors coming on board!
Home now and hungry as. My aunt lovingly packed some leftovers for me but I definitely need more. Maybe with the money I saved on uber (and not touching on...) I could indulge in takeaway... or maybe not, I'll have that as an option for tomorrow instead. I could throw in some air fried frozen fish to bulk out tonight's meal instead. Tonight is time to just blob out and watch TV and relax, tomorrow I have to get back on the academic horse.
Apologies to all football fans, I may have made a comment around the end of the first quarter about it being good to have a close match, which was apparently the Swans' cue to completely stop trying.
I was pleased with the symmetry of the scores though, with the Lions' goals and points both being exactly double the Swans, also everything being a multiple of three suits my numerical preferences.
My record player is "skating" lately, that means the needle travels across of the vinyl. As far as I can tell I can't adjust balance or weight on this player. I used a spirit level to check the cabinet and it's fairly level. I might get a new cartridge and see how that works.
It's kinda fun solving these little problems and learning about the whole audiophile interest.🙂
