It's been a year since the roadworks started near my house.
24 hours a day.
The things I would do for some quiet. The whole point of living in buttfuck nowhere was the peace and quiet.
I'm asking for a rent reduction and if they won't do it, I'm going to vcat.
Lol yeah I didn't realise it was 24/7 until the first night 😂 slept like a baby though because it reminded me of the noise on Sydney road haha
City noise is fine. People, music even traffic.
But this shit is wild. I might take Gibson with me to a hotel for a week.
It is wild! Way louder than I expected for overnight works. Hate to be the people living across from you, being just that much closer to it lol
Get that rent reduction mate, even if it's temporary or something.
We're a "low socio-economic" suburb.
They wouldn't pull this shit elsewhere.
Yeah, NIMBYs tend to be wealthy. If poor people kick up a fuss it's "civil disobedience" 🙄
We can't have the drones thinking they have any power now can we...
what roadworks are they doing that would be lasting 24 hours a day for a YEAR?
Creating extra lanes and tunnelling under a bridge.
I don't understand why they do night works for anything other than main roads or trains.
And since they are doing day works anyway why disturb people at night.
Slept like shit
I got an MP3 player off Aliexpress and it has been great so far, but it reintroduces a problem with wired headphones science still hasn't been able to solve:
How do you manage listening to something with wired headphones when you have to sit down on the toilet?
You hold the device in your non wiping hand or put it in your pocket. Unless your ears are near your crack hole I don't see a problem. Personally I don't need music to shit.
Or maybe you could lay the mp3 down on your undies like a hammock.
Do what we used to do in the 2000s during highschool; you tuck the wires into your shirt and put the player in your bra. Teachers can't see it if you got long hair too.
If you're not wearing a bra, you're shit outta luck mate
That's what duct tape is for lol
Duct tape it to your balls! Yolo!
Spud. I have a chest lol
I'm genetically inferior in that regard and have no need for a bra. I need to hope I'm wearing a polo shirt with a chest pocket
Bras are gender neutral. You can hide so many secrets in them. They should be standard attire for everyone, regardless of sex or gender.
could wear a "bro"
I'm up and it's not too cold this morning. I am also wearing thick polar fleecy PJs ...lol

Twas from last night. I've exiled myself to the couch due to being a snotty, sick bitch, and Mickey Jagger has been using my legs as a heating blanket. I am humbled m'lord has chosen my legs for his royal bed.
My sister found her passport after a year of it being "missing". It was at her place, in a box under her toilet paper stash. She just never decided to look there.
what a strange place to keep it
Arsehole Tradie has been given a verbal by Council. Will this be enough? War against possums continues. TheVoid has issued many verbals through the window and the current lack of living room rug may be related. Just want a house that is quiet at reasonable hours and not covered in pee!!!
more sleep would be nice
Replaced the battery in three laptops last night and the storage in one. Just need to figure out how to initialise or partition the SATA SSD for that sweet extra storage
Cousin will be in melbs for 4 weeks. He's getting here tomorrow night.
Should be fun!
Cheers peeps and ave a good weekend 🍻
Cheers boss 🍻
Today was the most Friday Friday... I ended up with all the shitty tasks everyone else conveniently didn't get to 😓 it is not in me to half arse work and ignore the shitty tasks. The works needs doing. Some other people in my team avoid a certain annoying tasks, and they end up with people like me who will just do it properly. Our manager and seniors are so under the pump with their own workload they can't police this kind of thing at all at the moment. Quite annoying
even tho tide is high I think I will go for a little beach walk 😊
no shells today, beach picture

I'm finally office ready. My RM boots arrived today. We get a corporate discount through work but the price still hurts
🎶 These boots are made for walkin and that just what they'll do. One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over the office 🎶
