Our work slack communications become increasingly meme-driven on a Friday. It’s a little reminder that my little work team is nice and I am very lucky.
And we haven’t done a good things thread for a while - anyone else got one to help with the grey day?
I reduced my anti depressant significantly and I feel amazing!
That is a big effort! I am on the minimum dose now (and will probably stay here) and it’s no joke tapering
Thank you :) I’m still exhausted and have random headaches, but feel so much better! Hopefully you’re feeling better :)
Yeah life is looking up, thanks
Well I’m looking forward to the weekend and the few days off I have coming up.
I also have a working from home day later next week but I’m thinking I spread out the load over the weekend so I have the day completely off.
See my post above
I’ve been meaning to share I really like the windchime I bought over a year ago. I got a good one from Rivers of Yarrambat and it has been great. It sounds nice, opening the door to the backyard fills the room with a nice sound, and it hasn’t shown a sign of wear in that whole time.
I think placement makes a big difference, I lucked out putting it somewhere it doesn’t cop too much wind, so most days it gives a nice ambient sound without going wild.
That’s the kind of stuff I am here for ♥️
Kitty’s in da house🙌🏻🙌🏻
I wonder if they realise how adorable their paws are lol
Our Anniversary is towards the end of June and I’ve pretty much got the evening all planned. How long do you think I should wait before telling my girlfriend we have plans?
I wouldn’t tell her what it is just get, but maybe just to be like ‘keep your calendar clear on the 21st, I’ve got it all sorted.’
two weeks
The 21st is also winter solstice fwiw, if you want to tie that into some romanticness.
I’m sure I’ll be able to tie the solstice into it somewhat. I also want to get ahead of things early in the unlikely event she’s planning something as well.

I actually booked tickets to a burlesque variety show so we’ll be getting a lot of that on the night
I reckon wait till next week.
I’ll wait until we hit June then tell her I’ve already got plans. She can find out what they are closer to the date.
Boooooooored.
Going home at lunch to finish my day.
What’;s for lunch?
Ham cheese croissant. Quick lunch that way I can leave early.
I’m really sad to hear Magda Szubanskis cancer diagnosis. I have had very many belly laughs from her comedy talents over the years. And she seems like a genuinely great person. I hope she can make it through.
Yeah thats not a ‘good’ one. Fuck cancer
Someone’s going to have a fun night
1 hour to go.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Pretty damn close mate lol
🤣
Goodnight all ❤️
She’s high on catnip so this is a rerun lol
Good Food & Wine Show is always a blast.
How were the oysters and cocktails last night?
So great!! We had oysters, whipped roe dip and a lobster jaffle which was off the charts!
Boyo is sleeping but there’s hotel breakfast to be had… waaaake up!
Wake 'm with bacon
🥓
I’m freeeeeeeee. But I have a normal people headache. Time for some food and a nap. Should be good for the date tonight otherwise I’ll reschedule.
Have fun tonight.
I hope it all goes well!
Against common sense I’m doing some work at home so I have the day free on my working from home day.
Sadly I’m too wrecked from work and the headache I’ve been nursing all day to be much fun on a date. have rescheduled to next week without issue.
Time for a nice long Epsom salts bath.
take care
I hope you feel better. And it’s good she was so understanding
Might have found a store with staff more useless than Bunnings. SuperCheap Auto.
Need new headlight globes. Take them out, bring them in, ask the people there for some help. Bloke grabs a couple of the shelf and rings them up. I walk to my car, look at the box and the fitting looks wrong. Sure enough, it’s the wrong type. I go back in and ask to exchange and he’s trying to tell me they’re the right ones.
I take one out of the box put it against one of my old ones, similar, but definitely not the same. He mumbles something like “I should have been more specific”
Mate, how much more fucking specific do you want?
He tries to help me again, and I kind of shoo him away, grab the right globes, swap them and job done.
I feel it’s my fault for not grabbing them myself to begin with instead of asking for help.
I bought headlight globes at SuperCheap last year. They were supposed to be extra long lasting, which turned out to only be two months. They also didn’t seem to be as bright as they should have been. I got more expensive Phillips ones sourced from somewhere else to replace them and was much happier, they were brighter and still going strong when I traded the car in.
Hope these last a bit longer. Went through a booze bus yesterday and the cop told me one of my headlights is out. No ticket, but I’m taking 0 chances.
aah, the woman in a tech shop experience
I know it well
I was ready to throttle the bloke.
