Walking in the drizzle listening to music is one of my favourite activities. Fuck yeah.
Edit: Tonight was a good night. Have been feeling extra isolated lately. Saw some friends and just had dinner and chatted. Grateful they came to hang out.
Can’t wait to move closer to civilisation.
Great. That’s all I need.
I think the split system using AC is leaking into the roof and wet spots and stuff have appeared.
Only noticed it today.
No proof that it the AC but I can’t think of any recent rain that could have caused it.
Dammit :(
From experience get on top of that asap. trust me.
Just trying not to stress about it but I guess I am and it’s coming out in really bad ways right now
I’ll have to.
It’s appeared in strange spots but I’m not sure how the piping was down and is actually causing the wet spots
Have made a gingerbread dough and it’s chilling in the fridge. Miniest made me do it 🫡 I’m sure she likes to eat the dough as much as the finished gingerbread, it smells like Christmas. I just realised I don’t have a gingerbread emoji, so 🫚🍞
Home made gingerbread is the best!
It really is, and the smell of it cooking is unlike anything else!
First batch is out!
Old man changed the aircon remote language to polish somehow. So, had a crash 2min course in polish and now I’m fluent and can fix all your accidental language changes from polish to english. But seriously, that is a severely difficult language.
It’s an insane language! I just cannot get any pronunciation right at all with Polish 😭
Sounds like when I bought a phone from overseas and it was set with Chinese as the default. That was a fun experience.
lol, sorry but lol
Wow, I didn’t know aircon remotes have different languages!
But I do have an early 2000s aircon.
I’ve had a few Polish friends over time and when I have a go at saying things, they all say I speak Polish like a Russian. They’ve not said it unkindly, but…
And then have German with their super long words.

dinner has been cooked and eat. I had a shake and one thai small chicken skewer with onion and capsicum, no sauce on it.
There is also pineapple fried rice.
num, skewers
spoiler
I rilly want to eat some more
I’m incredibly impressed with your mental fortitude if you resisted. But if you didn’t, I completely understand. Especially with the pineapple. Oh boy.
Not so bad outside as it’s overcast rather than skin-peelingly burning hot. Wait for blood test took an hour but at least it was air conditioned inside so I caught up on my crosswords. Grabbed some Argentinean empanadas for lunch on a whim (yum!!!), and a late coffee… Apt has stayed pretty nice and cool so far. I’ve been running the extractor fan in the bathroom which I think is kinda sorta helping to suck cool air in from the lounge via the bedroom?
Cringing a bit at how much drying I’ll need to do at the laundromat. I’ve put the towels to air dry a bit in the bathroom until I’m ready to go so there’s less paid drying involved. So dumb to have to use a dryer on a day like today. I won’t be here long enough to warrant buying a dryer for the unit, either… once I’ve opened up more space here I’ll look into some strategic clothes horse positions for drying work clothes and the like.
I will say there is something about living within walking distance to SO much stuff and activity (but not having to hear most of it at home). It’s like being on holiday in a downtown airbnb.
What you’re describing sounds like heaven to me at the moment.
I cannot wait to leave this area and side of town. It was a giant waste of time anyway.
I can definitely appreciate how you feel, it’s how I felt when I first came to Aus and the first few years were all in deep suburbia where i couldn’t fathom the way of life. I can kind of see why Richmond rentals attract a premium compared to say the equivalent in Hawthorn, simply for the vibrancy and density. Still overpriced IMO and no longer my thing but I can try and enjoy it while I’m here (while trying not to spend too much… none of this fun is for free)
That cool change is 💯
I wish! Here in Thornbury the temperature has dropped, the wind has dropped, but not the rain. Yet. Sticky and not pleasant rn.
Still waiting for the rain here…come on sky gods…let me have it!
No man in banh mi shop line, standing super close behind me will not get you served faster.
That really icks me.
Some people literally have no self-awareness.
I have shouted at people standing very close behind me at atm and registers. ( this is not like me but when people wont listen to soft words said 5 times I will shout ) Even when you tell them they just don’t understand personal space.
Fart loudly
I may have honed my ability to mimic very wet and juicy fart noises with my mouth for such situations.
Flat didn’t drop in temperature overnight. Pray for me.
I prayed, but nobody seems to be answering.
Damnit Satan, you had one job!
pounds fist WHAR RAIN
🤷♀️
looks like the rain is going south
Neeeeeed rain. Plz
Radar says rains in Colac.
I thought I was being responsible when I decided that 5 hours sleep was enough and I should get my lazy ass out of bed.
Bup bow.
Edit: about to kick off nap #3
I’ve already had dinner. I’m not even hungry and yet I seem to want McDonald’s. So random.
Been sweating? Might be craving the salt
weather is body temperature, plus fan forced eh? alrighty heading out now let’s do this
I will bring a palm leaf following in tow ready to fan you and feed you mildly cold grapes if the wind dies down.
I am so far still fine. The buses are air-conditioned and cooler than home. Hopefully the trains too. The next challenge is getting food from the city, then getting to the venue by tram.
