the r/MelbourneTrains sub always makes me happy, I smile every time an update hits my feed 😊

I think it's because it's all posted in pure enjoyment of Melbourne and trains

I found a flea bite on my foot… Melbcat is very annoyed I’m not letting her outside and traumatized her with the vacuum. She’s not going to like when I strip the bed

I went outside into my garden and looked at all my lavender (it has self-set everywhere, as a "weed" is wanton to do, and I've dug it up and planted it in some form of order) - there's plenty of flowers and yet not a bee to be seen. It was really fucking depressing.

omg, Ted Cat is humping the stuffed Chebarashka cushion 😬😂 he's been fixed so it's all for nothing

Went for a bit of a scoot to the supermarket after I popped into work to pick up a laptop. Banger of a day. People are out enjoying the weather everywhere and my washing on the clothes horse out on the balcony is drying up reeeal nice too.

I have my last meeting of the day at 4pm and then I'll get back out amongst it #gingerinthesun

I had some really good food cooking inspirations later on in the week early this morning.

Now I'm not sure I'm motivated enough after today to do it even though food is one of those rare things that brings me a lot of joy at times.

Scootering along the Yarra's edge during peak hour = lots of pedestrians with zero spatial awareness. Almost cleaned up one girl who made a very sudden 90 degree turn while staring deep into her phone screen. That was a mix of stressful and relaxing 6/10 one thumbs up.

Scary day today, I'm going to wear some new shoes, lovely very supportive soft impact easy to wear sandals, in orange!!. Always a little risky to wear new shoes when you have sciatica. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Incoming rant warning.

Sometimes it feels like the healthcare system here is one giant Ponzi scheme, with GPs constantly feeding new customers to 'specialists' who charge a fortune, who then sends the report back to the GP, so you have to pay to hear the results, which often leads to another referral to a different specialist, who sends the report back to the GP and the cycle continues.

Well bollocks and crap and all that.

I've been asked to work at another site one day a week for the rest of the year on a temp basis.

I'm not exactly thrilled at having to be at another site, first off the drive there and back and not really knowing anyone over there.

sigh

I may not have a choice in this either. I did say it has to be passed through someone else and be ok with them but they're away at the moment, I could probably say to my line manager and suggest that it's not a good idea to transfer me but at the same time it leaves my site unattended as well for one day a week to cover for their absence.

I need to think through this and how I'm going to navigate this. In the end I may not have a choice but to comply.

A friend who I hadn't seen for ages asked me recently what my music taste was like now and I answered with "It's easier to say I'm not into something (Country, mumble rap and most R&B) than pin down a genre." Which is true - Spotify at the end of every year spews out its stats and somehow I managed to listen to a shit ton of different genres.

BUT! The recent Spotify DJ guy, as well as the daylist thing really has hit home how much prog metal I still listen to.

Any recs for a nice bottomless brunch place in/around the city?

Saw some weird stuff at the Op Shop today. A statuette of Stalin?? and carrotman

sleep well everyone 😘
