Melbourne

Mattress salespeople are absolutely insane.

Kept feeling like I was a hot chip surrounded by seagulls.

I'm amazed we made it out of Nunawading alive

Just spent the last few hours at the office "redecorating" for a coworker who's back from leave tomorrow. Cow themed. I've never been more productive

hello hello everyone! how are we all on this fine day?

What would you guys' love to see added to Lemmy? Personally, I kinda miss the Reddit trophies, how am I going to feel superior to all of you who signed up 4 days ago if I can't flex ending up in the x year club 2 days earlier???

@Goddess_Amaterasu@aussie.zone is the Fiji water photo at sunrise today.

Now I’m in Suva after having spent the week on an island paradise but still a few more days before flying back to cold Melbourne.

Have packed another couple tea mails for swaps overseas Last one i gave out 2 teas i dont drink and got 10 teas i do drink in return. So awesome 👌

Oh no. I just came to Bunnings to buy a rake. But I’ve just noticed that it’s bare root rose and fruit tree season…

Have been to market. I bought bread, I bought milk, I bought veg, I bought meat, I bought Turkish delight, I bought baba ghanoush…

I feel as though I’ve at least brushed against the food pyramid

I've sat down to do the theory work for my first aid and cpr training tomorrow and I'm already falling asleep, curse my uninterested brain.

Air fryer owners. What is the cleaning situation like? I have not joined the air fryer revolution yet. It’s seems like they might be good, but is the time saved in cooking negated by time spent in cleaning? I’m thinking compared to using normal oven, which does not need cleaning every use and baking sheet is easy to wash or put in dishwasher.

Harry Belafonte has been ear worming me this week.

Day-O and Jump In The Line keep getting stuck in my head.

I blame/thank Tim Burton

Watching a new to me movie everyday, not just lotr & hobbit 😏

Today was Good Will Hunting. I had been putting off watching this for decades because ... "reasons"

Yes, it hit as hard as I thought it would. But I'm older now and can see that movie was written by kids, genius kids but kids. 😉

It's true, easy work is relaxing, it leaves the mind free.

Luck is more important than most people know.

Choices in life aren't usually dichotomous, you don't have to choose between a person/people and opportunity. If you can, choose both.

Still shits me that society thinks smart people have a duty to self actualise and serve society. If there is duty the duty goes both ways. You want what brains can give, then give brains some support and respect their freedom of choice.

This is true. Find your people.

e-visa done for indo..

C L U N K E E golly gosh

I did my research last night for where I'd go for breakfast in Bright, walked up to it in the chilled morning drizzle eager for some (reviewer described) fluffy yellow eggs and coffee only to find, to my horror, that a sign on the door said "We are closed for annual leave until June 26, sorry we missed you"

I was so disappointed I left town immediately. I drove without a specific destination, in search of a place of fluffy yellow eggs and delicious coffee.

I find myself now in Wangaratta, sat inside a cafe I spotted as I drove through the city centre. Eggs ordered, sipping my coffee and listening to my audiobook through my headphones. The sun is shining.

making chicken mushroom pies for dins, some banana walnut bread for rest of the week tea.

spent the day gardening at the community garden. plucked out a lot of weeds, more weeds to tackle at home as well as the community garden. went to bunnings bought supplies to reframe one plot for pea and beans. Monday involves a lot of calling and harassing of people. yea long week ahead
