Melbourne

I went to a guy's business that's looking for some marketing support today. He wasn't there but it worked out well. I asked for him and one of his employees called him and put me on the phone, that proves I showed up and was there.

He said to come back at 7:30 tomorrow morning to talk, I bet he thinks I won't show up. I've been looking for a bit of extra side work like this for a couple of years now, I had some stuff going on before the boys were born and that fell away, I haven't been able to find anything since.

I feel like I'm going to get something because this sort of side work always comes in twos for me. I've been talking to some other potential leads and one of them will probably come through at the same time.

I have managed to put away some of my groceries and check if the order was ok. I somehow managed to order three avocados instead of one, and a single tomato instead of a kilo. They gave me much larger eggs than I ordered, but one of them was broken so I'm probably even on that one. Miss Meow will be comforted to know that we are now fully supplied with her tinned food, and have an extra bag of dry food to tide us over until I can find which box I packed her dry food in when moving.

Mr Woof has been very unsettled that I was spending time in the study instead of the lounge. I tried putting one of his beds in the study for him, but he just brought his moose toy in and left it in the bed.

I’ve made it home, but I can’t feel my fingers. I think I need a cuppa

washing machine sounds like it's dying

it's 6 months out of warranty 😠 it's a $700 machine, so not the cheapest but obviously not in the good tier

might be better value to just a buy new or near new speed queen than pay many hundreds to get a technician out

I read the title as Thursday for a moment and got excited :(

One assignment is done. It makes me bury myself in a hole knowing that my work is terrible and someone's going to read it, but at least it's done. Time to do the rest of the assignments.

I will vow to never procrastinate again after this. I know to start assignments when I get them but I don't do it. Next time, I shall.

I bought these frozen cookies in a zip-lock packet from Woolies that you bake fresh, which is happening right now. Mmm 11pm cookies. I will restrain myself and leave some for tomorrow.
