    It has been over two weeks since I have watched the hobbit or lotr 😟 I do listen to a little bit of lotr audio book most days.

    But I did watch Dark again.

    I’ve been playing a psychological thriller game called Karma: Dark World. Indie studio by the looks of it. I saw someone on YT had a play through and after the first like, 10min I just decided to buy the game with my birthday money 😅

    It’s really good! A couple of minor jumpscares, but it’s a walking sim so no combat or anything, just unraveling the mystery. I’m hooked! Voice acting is amazing, beautiful retro-futuristic aesthetics, and the setting of 60s-80s East Germany where a ‘thought bureau’ called Leviathan Corporation runs everything.

    I don’t even know how to describe the story because there’s so much mystery!

    Printer has ink, everything sorted, still being massively obstructive. I guess HP stands for Hot (steaming) Poop

    Noooooo. Was meant to dump my bags by the door and head back out to buy groceries but somehow managed to lock myself out even though this unit door doesn’t actually self-lock… actually idk how it worked because normally you can only lock it from the inside after the door is shut, and you can only lock it from the outside with a key…

    Anyway, thank fuck my friend who lives down the road and has my spare keys is on his way back from a site out east, and crucially, has NOT yet left for a 4 day work trip to Halls Gap.

    Sitting in the shopping centre across the road staying warm and enjoying supermarket dolmades. It’s tempting to buy a bag of chips but I really have a protein craving more than anything else.

    E: back in. No fish curry for me tonight. But I’ll be sure as hell making it tomorrow. Old lil eggplants, fresh green beans, 4-year-old Baba’s fish curry powder, oñons, bitta tomato paste and coconut milk.

        Yeah my friend rocked up half an hour ago thank goodness. It turns out it is possible to lock the door from the inside and then close it :|

        Will be making extra copies of keys to put under doormat and in office…

            There’s a security door for the block of 3 units and I’m on the top floor. Nobody comes up here unless I’ve asked them to. I’m taking the risk. Not wearing it on me and I’ll be outta here in a few months anyway.

    christ I love it when customers try and throw their dick around “Raaar none of our other suppliers needed this data” like they fucking know what they’re doing.

    You don’t sound big mate. You sound like an absolute cock who has no idea what the fuck he’s talking about. Sit the fuck down.

    boss yeah I’m gonna send ya a couple servers to configure.
    me: aight.
    boss: I need them done by tomorrow
    me: doable, but you’re building an 8tb stripe, that alone is gonna take about five hours jsyk.
    boss: also I have just realised you go on leave next week so I want everything possible done right now. Even things that can wait. Even things that aren’t anywhere near being implemented.
    boss: I am going to send you every email under the conceivable fucking sun and demand you answer them instead of building my servers.
    boss: I’m also gonna let a client scream at you about something I did
    boss: and I’m gonna ask you if you’ve done something that I explicitly said I’d do three weeks ago
    boss: and then I’m gonna send you another couple servers.
    boss: I want these ready to ship to client tomorrow.

    Thought I was having a good day till I discovered my id tag fell out of the holder on a lanyard.

    I might have to foot the bill to replace it :(

    Why does everything pile up so fast?

    spoiler

    Paid for the iron infusion over the phone. Telehealth. Trying to line up an appointment with another dental specialist. Will finish wrapping soap so the stuff is ready to go. Then I need to print and fill out a form for something else.

    Then I will have to do a tiny bit on the twin peaks. Mount Washmore and Mount Dishmore.

    Melbcat is acting fussy still so I tried to sort a vet appointment out but times and days have changed and I forget who’s available to help when… I really should have addressed this earlier today but I’m not my best. Still queasy with a splitting headache.

    I’ve given her a quarter dose in food to top her up until tonight’s dose and will either sort an appointment or try to get a urine sample at home tomorrow. A hot water bottle on her tummy seems to be helping her.

    Woohoo I love early work shifts. Heading home at four instead of 730 feels like I’m getting out of prison years before I’m supposed to

    Don’t you love when you have a banh mi place that every time you get one you’re just, like, “this is the best banh mi I’ve ever had”? Also love when you’re eating a banh mi and you get that moment when you’re staring down a chilli thinking it won’t be so bad but also know it’s going to punch your mouth up in the most delicious of ways?

    I’m a happy girl.
