Woke up at 6, went to the bathroom and a wasp stung me on the back of my neck. Never seen a wasp like it. Fastest most erratic insect I’ve ever seen. Whole right side of the head felt like it was on fire for about an hour. Felt like a bullant sting but went for way longer.
Don’t normally get too upset will little bites but this really tested my limit. Cheaper than a coffee though.
omg, do take care
I guess the silver lining is now I know I won’t die if get stung again by the same one lol.
I wish I knew what sort it was but it was way too fast.
First wasp bite though, so that’s exciting.
I think I found the perfect childcare watch. The Casio gmbd300 is your regular slim G-Shock, but can connect to your phone via Bluetooth.
It’s not a smart watch, but you can do all the fiddly shit like setting the time and alarms on your phone and sync it with the watch
I am considering taking a leave of absence from uni next year and getting a job so I can properly treat my AuDHD and issues with procrastination and work avoidance. Any job. I don’t want to sit at a desk for eight hours, five days a week, but if that’s what I have to do, I’ll do it. Very sick of being anxious and stressed all the time when I don’t have to be. Also the thought of going into a classroom for the next few weeks is making me really anxious to the point where I am about to have a meltdown in front of all those kids.
That sounds like a wise choice. A year out could give you good perspective. When do you have to decide? It could be good to set out a job position before giving notice of leave so you don’t cause yourself extra stress and you know what you are going into.
I’ve still got a couple of months to decide. Thank you for the advice! I’m not sure what I’m after just yet, but am applying to all different things, mostly pen pushing jobs.
It sounds like a leave of absence might be a really good choice. Being so perpetually wired up and tense is no good, it doesn’t seem like one of those situations where you’ll get used to it and adapt, sounds like the path towards burnout instead…
I struggle a lot with procrastination and work avoidance myself, but after many years I’ve been able to identify what combination of factors work for me. I can say that the uni setting often doesn’t work for me. Forcing myself to get through it has been like pulling teeth. So I strongly support you finding out what works for you as well and being gentle with yourself (while trying to survive the capitalist hellscape)!
Those little jobs that you put off doing but need to be done. I’m filling up all the soap dispensers.
Man, this behemoth of a laptop has really chewed into my luggage allowance. Can’t take my work laptop, will have to deal with accessing work stuff from SharePoint on my personal laptop instead.
I’ve been in a mad rush trying to clear out the fridge and tidy things up before tomorrow… Plus side is I made a kickass fried rice with all the leftover rice, enough for brunch tomorrow before the flight and for the freezer as an excellent meal for when I get back.
Once again I cannot be grateful enough for my dishwasher. Takes so much out of the chaos. My mind is in a million places… But I’m almost through my Anxiety List!
this week back from easter has been atrocious. god I miss sleeping in !!!
Saaaame. I thought a short week would be nice and easy, but it’s still dragging like crazy!
The three days between long weekends are so unnecessary
The music part of this might interest you, it’s absolutely captivated me.
A game called Expedition 33 will release tomorrow and it’s come out to glowing reviews and its bits of soundtracks has been released by the developers.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 - Original Soundtrack - Reveal Editi
The music interests us greatly also.
🎧🎶
Reminds me of Elfen Lied’s Lilium
oh cool, thank you. I love soundtracks. 🙂
I’m listening to the first song linked, got headphones on and I’m just drowning in the audio experience.
Sent to my symphonic metal loving friend, thanks for sharing!
I’m a symphonic metal fan though that has nothing to do how I came across these tracks.
Nooo… Melbcat has been feeling stressed lately and licking her little tummy raw.
spoiler
She’s still been getting her calming Zylkene and I’ve been neglecting the garden to avoid leaving her inside by herself. But she is overdue for her Solensia (thanks health dramas and 4 days of public holidays). Maybe she’ll come good when I sort that.
Otherwise maybe I can put her in a baby’s bodysuit (with the bottom snaps left open) as a way of protecting her skin. This however… would not help her stress.

this one looks great, it has velcro for easy putting on and it covers her tummy 🙂
That’s so cute. I will be murdered in my sleep but the photos would be worth it
You can buy cat t-shirts from k-mart.
I can’t see them but Kmart now sells a pet stroller 😲
Edit: Found them but they only seem to have dog ones. And they leave the lower belly uncovered
Damn. Maybe try a new born singlet.
Yeah. That’s a great idea.
I have a bodysuit but it’s a little tight and the singy would be more comfortable
More stretchy to help get on too.
I am so going to wake up one day to find she’s pooped in my shoes
😂
Why do I need to turn the volume up to read the subtitles?
Ha! I turn the volume up for subtitles too. It helps to understand them better or something
I’m still a bit surprised (though not unpleasantly) at the little microcosm of activity that these daily threads have.
There’s a question I’ve been asking people for a while, might as well ask here too: what gets you up in the morning?
Responsibility. Wahh.
This is such a fun space to be in 😀
Feed and medicate my cat
Bloody magpies yelling at me.
I wake with the sunrise and cats wanting breakfast
My tiny bladder.
Same but I think I have a lazy bladder. It can hold a big wee but it’ll wake me and complain when there’s a tiny one loaded and ready to go. I don’t put my red bin out every week because It’s often empty or only has one bag in it so I figure why waste the trucks time. I need my bladder to get with that system.
That little fuzzy feeling in the morning when you wake up and you’re nice and warm and snug and then you realise the reason you woke up is because you need a piss. 😡
So I hop too hoping to catch a lil more zzz and go to the toilet then a fucking teaspoon of wee comes out and I don’t get back to sleep. >: |
Sadly it’s work and getting a car park that gets me up in the morning.
At this point: money
And not letting people down I guess
In a literal sense it’s any one of these things: some noisy birds, my alarm, a plane flying low or loudly, my partner going outside for a cigarette. In a non literal sense it’s a kind of strength and persistence of attitude which propels my life force ever onwards despite the efforts of my detractors lol.

Got my postal vote. Democracy will occur after breakfast
I’m still waiting on mine 🤞 I got confirmation of the application so it should be coming
I wish I could vote early but I don’t meet any of the categories. I want to do my democracy now!
Yeah, just rock up to a pre-poll place and say you’ll be travelling and they’ll let you. It’s more ‘preferred’ if you vote on election day, they won’t stop you voting early
I went towards the end of the day and they didn’t even ask for a reason.
When I voted early last time, all they asked was, “Are you eligible to vote early?”
I said yes and then they gave me the papers.
You can go vote early. I did mine yesterday and have been doing it for the last 3 elections.
They’ll ask you if you meet the eligibility, just say yes and that’s it.
If you need a reason just say you’re out of the state at that time.
The eligibility reasons to postal vote or vote early are not strictly enforced.
You could say you’re travelling on May 3rd (even though you don’t have firm plans to do so just yet…) you would be far from the only one making the same claim.
You don’t need to provide proof.
Hey, do you and the fam want to come camping in Wombat state forest the weekend of the election?
I’m a very positive, happy, go with the flow kinda person… but my god do I dislike a lot of people.
My boss describes me as ‘doesn’t tolerate fools’.
I relate so hard …lol
2nd coat of paint is done, table is starting to look good. I think I’ll let it harden , then sand and do one last coat.
