Melbourne

Well guys, I finally did it. I went and bought nicotine patches.

Thank you for reading. ❤️

The lovely roomies bought me flowers.

Had to get a tooth removed. Really upset tbh. I've spent about $17k to get them somewhat fixed and I feel like I'm in a losing battle.

This time I pretty much can't eat properly or smile until I get my denture in 6 weeks.

This is the price of absolute stupidity.

So much work and effort to get where I am and I haven't been able to smile in almost a decade. It has absolutely wreaked havoc on my confidence.

Fucking hell.

This has been a stressful week but I'm feeling grateful. Grateful for you lot, grateful for my work team who didn't blink when I had a minor panic attack today and thought nothing of my spending the meeting sitting on the floor cuddling the office dog so I could stay grounded and regulated and still participate. And having access to an office dog is 👌 There are still good peeps out there.

Oh no, not the chicken dick.

Today in the junior class I was observing, the teacher handed out connector pens. Some kids started using them as guns and point them at others. Wouldn't care but they were distracting each other. So I went around the room and collected the pens, and of course offender numero uno said,

"Whyyyyyyy?! That's so rude of you!"

These kids just sit there talking or fidgeting the entire time and then when it comes to doing work, they're clueless. The teacher didn't do an awful lot of behaviour management because she didn't want to take time out of the learning for the kids who actually wanted to be there. She also said having a seating plan makes them antagonise you more sometimes.

Ring leader of the disruptive kids was pulled out of class by the teacher. Turns out he forgot to take his ADHD meds today. This is the moment I realised why ADHD was most commonly looked at in boys. Girls tend to be less disruptive.

It's amazing how quickly a place ceases to be a home, without all the furniture and belongings the old place just looks like empty rooms. Or maybe I just wasn't attached to it.

The company wishes to inform me I have survived rate review.

They've given me a box of treats

I'm officially taking the day off tomorrow!

Overseas visitors requested a place with Nice Coffee and Croissants... I didn't do too well on the coffee front BC too many options and just went for very average Seven Seeds. However, we did swing past Monforte in Carlton North and DAMN that was a really good discovery. Worth the $$$. I pretty much died after eating them and am typing this comment from heaven

Well that was interesting. Just got woken up to the loud sound of "pop... pop pop; ... pop". Followed by multiple police car sirens.

I hope it was fireworks and someone just having a late night and that everyone is ok.

The police were heading towards North Fitzroy based on the sound.

Jesus Christ the robot baby is crying.

Thank you Spud for posting today's thread. 🙂🥔

I forgot to post yesterday that while I was mowing the grass yesterday I had a flyover from a Chinook.

Fellow night wakers, I have a question. Sometimes if I wake up in the night and cant go straight back to sleep, I’ll grab my phone and do mindless things on it until I feel drowsy again. I’ve always thought this is a bad habit, but is it really? Distracts me and I go back to sleep eventually. I have it in dark mode so minimal bright light. So should I kick the habit? What would be an alternative?

someone was talking about crappy nightmares recently. had one a few days ago thats still sticking with me. Someone died, i tried to save them but missed by mere millimeters. Last night i think i died, no where near as memorable but still unsettling.

Hi there, it's James from IPA....fuck off! Daaaaaaaaaaaaaah

My manager organised some TV commercials then buggered off overseas this week so myself and the other person in my team have to figure out how we want 3 ads to look with no background and no assets

Someone's waiting outside for their morning walkies. I've had a coffee and I need a poo-poo. This could end badly.

Hello 2am, could we not? What's with the chicken dick, did I miss something?
