  • Wore heels for the first time in many forevers yesterday. Now have a confused mix of toes that ache and ones I can't feel properly. Hope this isn't cause for actual concern.

    Wake was a very fine send off indeed. Don't think the cafe staff knew what hit them.

    • I wore stupidly high heels to my wedding many years ago and could not feel a couple of my toes for weeks. Feeling eventually returned and I still have all my toes, so I guess that means it's ok?

      • These probably don't even count as heels to many. I've never been a spike person, but being out of practice on even such low things seems to matter now.

  • Noooooo. Was meant to dump my bags by the door and head back out to buy groceries but somehow managed to lock myself out even though this unit door doesn't actually self-lock... actually idk how it worked because normally you can only lock it from the inside after the door is shut, and you can only lock it from the outside with a key...

    Anyway, thank fuck my friend who lives down the road and has my spare keys is on his way back from a site out east, and crucially, has NOT yet left for a 4 day work trip to Halls Gap.

    Sitting in the shopping centre across the road staying warm and enjoying supermarket dolmades. It's tempting to buy a bag of chips but I really have a protein craving more than anything else.

    E: back in. No fish curry for me tonight. But I'll be sure as hell making it tomorrow. Old lil eggplants, fresh green beans, 4-year-old Baba's fish curry powder, oñons, bitta tomato paste and coconut milk.

    • Hey Kitten.

      Hope you’re ok.

      Did you manage to get back into your unit?

      • Yeah my friend rocked up half an hour ago thank goodness. It turns out it is possible to lock the door from the inside and then close it :|

        Will be making extra copies of keys to put under doormat and in office...

  • Have discovered it is possible to spend silly amounts of money on screen doors.

    Then went to the plant nursery. Ouch, and did not buy the life size cheetah statue.

  • Back at work after having most of last week off due to family. Spent my time getting ready considering what I could cut back on/do differently in order to reduce life costs if I just happened to trip and quit, issa a vibe!

  • Thought I was having a good day till I discovered my id tag fell out of the holder on a lanyard.

    I might have to foot the bill to replace it :(

  • Little vid from yesterday from the pt. lonsdale lighthouse overlooking the pier / Rip. Shitty phone cam so excuse that (can mute it it's just wind / white noise). But it was wild.

    I went on the pier and a biggish wave hit, made a fair few people freak out lol. Pier moved pretty violently so most of us got out of there pretty quickly.

    On the way back surfers were rushing in with a smile on their faces a day after 18 ppl got swept out. Different breed.

  • A few more boxes have been packed and a shelving unit disassembled. There is a lot of gunk underneath it. I am going to learn from this and make sure the bottom shelf is high enough that I can clean under it. Right on the floor might have been fine for a solid shelf, but for a shelf with gaps for things to fall through it was not a good plan.

    • There's gunk under everything. Beds, fridge and washing machine are the main culprits.

  • I've been playing a psychological thriller game called Karma: Dark World. Indie studio by the looks of it. I saw someone on YT had a play through and after the first like, 10min I just decided to buy the game with my birthday money 😅

    It's really good! A couple of minor jumpscares, but it's a walking sim so no combat or anything, just unraveling the mystery. I'm hooked! Voice acting is amazing, beautiful retro-futuristic aesthetics, and the setting of 60s-80s East Germany where a 'thought bureau' called Leviathan Corporation runs everything.

    I don't even know how to describe the story because there's so much mystery!
