Decisions decisions.

My boss just told me that the xmas do is this afternoon - but I also have a pre-existing dentist appointment for late this afternoon and there's no possibility of re-scheduling it to a pre-xmas slot. Will have to wait until the new year at least.

So, dentist or xmas party? - so far the dentist is winning.

Dentist, always. Itโ€™s more important and you donโ€™t know when youโ€™ll get another appointment

My TV turned on at about 4:30am this morning โ€“ woke up to the bright glow out in the lounge. I could tell it was just cycling through google stock backgrounds, but still didnโ€™t want to go out and turn it off (stupid brain thinking awful things) and didnโ€™t want to wake up boyfy since he was sleeping so peaceful after a rough few nights. Thankfully it turned itself back off after 10 minutes.

Iโ€™ve read stories about how Alexia will randomly start singing or playing sounds when people are home alone and I really hope that my TV story is the spookiest I ever experience from smart tech!

I saw a woman on the train who looked just like Klaus Kinski, wild hair and all.

Looks like the Roomba festival just started or something. There's rides and stuff set up near the river diagonally across from flinders st station, near the row boat place

Fell asleep at like 9.30pm, or 10ish I think. I think I was tired lol.

Been getting better sleep on the couch under the aircon, than the bedroom.

Second last day of work. Pray for anyone that asks me for favour at work today.

Just finished watching Day of the Jackal (the tv series). Great show, suspenseful to the end. You know the writers have done a good job when you find yourself cheering for a ruthless killer.

Today's gonna be a shitshow, I can feel it. Oh well, at least I've got an extra set of hands and a removalist. I was hoping it wouldn't come to indiscriminately throwing things in rubbish bags (that's a site spot for me, as that's what child protection usually give you when they've given you 15 minutes notice you're moving to the other side of the state). But it wasn't even procrastination, I just couldn't properly start. I think I need the time crunch, being forced to throw ideals and organisation out the window, and somebody to help and hold me accountable in person for it to work

Gonna be rocking 3 hours of sleep again. I'll get up at 6 and at least try to pack a bit myself, or at the very least do some tidying up and pack the non essentials (which I seem to find easier for some reason). Also need to finish constructing my dining table and make it out to the shops (tomorrow is absolutely not a cooking night, but also not an order in night, so I'm thinking roast chook rolls)
