Alrighty. Off to the in person interview shortly. Then the rest are either phone or teams.

Big day and I’m rewarding myself with a pizza of some description after it’s all done

Edit: one down. Not bad. 2 down. Not a fan of that one.

    Today is a seasol day. Yesterday was a dynamic lifter day. Drastically underestimated the amount of dynamic lifter but I suppose that's not a bad thing because of the smell. Will do it in batches.

    Parsley is having a good ol' time:

    And the habanero / thai cross proved to be a very good tree to overwinter. Half the taste of habs but still hot af. Never stopped fruiting over winter (and lost very few leaves). Heaps of buds coming along so looks like early chillies this year.

    Also heading to a gig tonight for the first time in ages. Will be more on the milder side of things so interesting to see what sort of crowd. At any rate looks like a lot of people are going (for that type of music lol) which is good to see.

    This dude is playing

    That's looking pretty good, I'm a touch jealous of anyone who has actual plants at the moment.

    I'm planning to use Rooster Booster instead of Dynamic Lifter, then add a bit extra Nitrogen around the leafy crops (probably blood and bone). Maybe some Charlie Carp pellets around the natives.

    I have achieved more in 2 hours today than I did all day yesterday.

    The lack of omnidirectional jackhammers works wonders

    I've been enjoying the Wu–Tang Clan - Black Samson the Bastard Swordsman album while making chilli oil, mowing and roasting capsicums. Got that funky NY hiphop beat. e: If you're looking for something new.

    Wind is absolutely wild out there. It's recycling bin day and there are so many boxes and things blowing around the streets it's crazy. I definitely won't be doing any gardening today. I could try washing my sheets, they would either blow dry in 10 minutes or get caught by the wind and end up down the street in the dam.

    Goodnight everyone. After possibly one of the most mediocre falafels I've ever eaten, I'm going to bed because I am utterly knackered. Will probably say hi to some of you at 2am-ish lol.

    What happened to the falafel? I make the best. That makes me sad. πŸ˜”

    I was too tired/lazy to cook and most in the house wanted kebab for dinner, but I chose falafel instead. It came in a sectioned tray like an IKEA meal, four falafel and a feeble salad (the same salad spread out over the two smaller sections of the tray lol) with chunks of bread in a separate bag and two tiny tubs of dips. One dip was barely passable red capsicum and the other was an attempt at baba ghanouj which looked like the substance squeezed from a smokers lungs in a tv commercial from the 80s and tasted even worse. In all, a pathetic effort.

    I'm waiting until tomorrow to reply so they can't be like "oops I meant next Friday not Thursday", so I get another weekend 😊
    Edit: ok wait. So they told me it will be next Thursday, on Friday morning. That isn't seven days is it?
    Edit 2: seven days after 10am Friday is 10am Friday - not 10am Thursday. I must be right

    Do you have e-notices disallowed? Forcing registered mail gets an extra 3 days.

    Do you reckon the makers of Tylenol will sue the US government for slander?

    someone or someones made a huge killing on tylenol shares

    could even be the owners of tylenol are in on it

    everything from this government is a money making grift, everything

    I mean, they could view it as bad publicity is still publicity, but it's total madness that that disgrace can stand there and say things like that with zero proof and people cheer. I wonder if it's had any +/- effect on their sales.

    It's time for a windy morning dog walk. Mr Woof always looks so sleek and streamlined with a headwind, then we turn around and get a tailwind and he looks like a complete mess. Wind creating a part around the butt hole is never an attractive look. πŸ’¨πŸ•

    I really felt it on the last stretch of the ride to work. They're still building out this industrial area so one part is just a massive open field with a road going through it and I copped the full headwind.

    I feel like a headwind might be better than a side wind when riding, it makes for harder work but doesn't impact balance as much.

    I'm on the edge of a new estate which is surrounded by open fields on three sides and still has a lot of vacant blocks and very little vegetation, so the wind gets extra wild through here too.

    Operation UnKAOS is going well.

    I have practically no tidying of cupboards and drawers to do, which is the Fri morning task. I'm already pretty well organised in that regard. Garage is another question but even that is pretty good. That leaves ordinary daily upkeep, a little bit of gardening and afternoons are free. 😊

    I'm aiming to get on the good sleep crew tonight - fresh sheets have just been put on the bed.

    I just grabbed the chance to do that.

    Edit: Maybe I’ll try a quarter tablet of Restavit tonight right after Melbcat’s midnight meds. Enough to try and drop off without so much drowsiness the next day

    Last day of work before a week of leave. Not going anywhere, just chillin' and doing local shit. Might extend into 2 weeks (I have so much leave accrued).

    Pretty much finished my tasks as well, but have to hang around online to be 'available' should any questions arise.

    I’m probably going to be one of the bad sleep crew tonight. There are a few things to unkaos but having trouble getting moving.

    Edit: For now - ten pulldowns on each arm just got done 😩

    Felt more productive today than the entire week combined, where I had permanent brain fog, tiredness and irritable mood. I'm blaming daylight savings for feeling off. Now to get blown away while getting some steps in and then relax 🍺
