Mornin', YarraByte!

Woke up early. Taking advantage of new job flexibility to head into work early to finish early! Bring on the weekend at 2pm please

[โ€“] StudChud@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (4 children)

Woke up with one very swollen eye. Giving me flashbacks to when my ex farted on my pillow and gave me pinkeye ๐Ÿ˜‚ I don't think it's pink eye this time though, no weeping and it isn't pink or red, just swollen.

Getting a blood test done today will be interesting lol

Amputation is obviously required. You are probably now short enough to refrigerate.

[โ€“] StudChud@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (2 children)

If I could get it removed, you best believe I'll be getting a bejewelled eyepatch, or a freaky glass eye I'll leave around in places and when partner finds it I'll say

They never wiped their arse properly so ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Did he do that after watching Knocked Up, or had he not seen Knocked Up to be warned of what would happen?

[โ€“] StudChud@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

They did it because I upset them and they were (probably still are) abusive lol

I can laugh about it now, because it's wild crazy behaviour, but at the time it was difficult to explain to my co-workers that I just told them it was some sort of eye infection

Oh please no. This is my last day off before I go back to work tomorrow, if there is any fast-forwarding today please do this on an individual basis!

I am not that person, I wake with the sunrise, get out of bed unless I am way laid, and I like it

but i stay up and have poor anxious sleep so force myself to go back to sleep again

[โ€“] tombruzzo@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Back on the bike to work today. It has been a while and gotten so much colder since last ride so I'm using public transport whilst it's still free. If I don't get back on the bike now I won't until Spring.

federal government internet services are not running properly today because they are doing updates

The man brought home these ugly cake plates. I'm gonna eat lamingtons and Vegemite sandwiches off them while reading Possum Magic. Not today. Today is beer day.

What a glorious morning for a bike ride! Just a shame about the lack of dogs spotted on said ride!

[โ€“] tombruzzo@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

A bit cold this morning but the ride home is shaping up to be lovely

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

Attn Spin... Pickle twisters are at Woolies.

Would tag you but Jerboa sucks and I don't know how to make it work.

If you're looking for a doco on porridge competitions The Golden Spurtle on Netflix is your show. 5/5 for entertainment.

*A golden spurtle is a spurtle that is golden that has its own suitcase. Not my words

**Porridge must be stirred clockwise or the devil might come out. Also not my words

[โ€“] Force_majeure1234@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not even joking but that is right up my alley. I will watch either tonight or this weekend and report back

The clockwise bit is for the northern hemisphere. Like bathwater, it goes the other way south of the equator.
