People are getting seasick on this ferry. I am not one of them (I don’t get seasick, I’m very comfortable on open water) but the ferry staff have checked on me twice.
I can only assume they’ve seen me stand up and made the wrong guess
I was on the Rottnest ferry as a wee lad and went to the toilet. I became airborne mid-stream multiple times.
For a sec there I wondered why you were on a boat in the dark, lol
Smuggling. Shhhh
My French is better than I thought. I managed to direct/have a lengthy conversation with a French tourist who was gifted with enthusiastic but terrible English skills.
I’ve also picked up a katsu curry bowl and am ready to withdraw into seclusion for the evening.
Candid shots of a few of the crew. Their dry food is on the ground so the crazy lady doesn’t throw it out. 🐱
Edit: I changed today. I was having another stress fest about work. I went and laid down and had one of those “self talk” sessions.
I’ve been taking work way too seriously. In general. I’ve been giving everything to my job and left nothing for myself.
Since I reduced the medication I’ve noticed the lack of energy after work because I’m not hyped up. So I’m sitting there, not knowing what to do with myself. Even music is hard. Very hard. So I’ve been going to bed very early.
I don’t need 10 hours of sleep. I just have nothing to do because I’m completely spent.
Because everything has been devoted to work.
On double the dose I was a workaholic automaton.
This is the 3rd week since the reduction. Significant personality changes noted. More relaxed and happier to banter with people. Body is less tensed up.
Being content. Smiling. Laughing.
I wonder what else will change.
It’s great you’ve been able to reflect on things in that way.
I wonder if there’s a balance, like two in the morning and one in the afternoon so you can get through work with enough energy at the end of the day without being too hyper.
But I get the medicine probably doesn’t work that way
Thanks man. I’m not describing it well.
I feel completely personally detached from work. Like there is a barrier between me, and work me. My entire self was engulfed by work.
Now it isn’t and it’s a great feeling!
If that makes sense.
I have been experimenting with dosages, and have found that works best.

sigh
That is so freaking cute.
I know! If it was in a corner or something I’d try to keep it.
That’ll be easy to find the culprit
Oh I saw him do it, didn’t jump fast enough to stop him (LittleOne not Void)
Little shit
Look mum, I’m an artistè!
Perhaps he’s been examining the temp gallery
I can see the effect he was going for.
A 20km drive home (freeway driving) took 40 minutes. Between that and just suchhhh a shitty day at work, I actually had to go to the gym or I’d have torn myself apart.
Now sitting outside, enjoying the breeze.
I don’t really fancy cooking and cleaning up after a stir fry today.
I think I’ll just air fry some thick crunchy chips tonight.
This is Quentin. He averages one thought every fifteen minutes

Living his best life!
My spirit animal ❤️
They’re so alarmingly relaxed around humans, it’s so weird seeing wild animals that never developed a fear of big scary predators!
He sat on my foot
It’s just mind boggling.
I saw a pair pretty much making out right in front of me and this little kid who went “MUMMY COME AND SEE THE WEDDING”.
They’re either the most chill critters in the universe or else they’re shatteringly stupid. I do not know which. It could be either
I love him.
I left the windows open and now my entire apartment smells like a bushfire. yey.
I was playing “get in the door” on hard mode today
pakige
that’s , a serious big pakige
Much pakige!
Went and saw the Minecraft movie over the weekend with my two kids and two of their friends. Really fun. Small cinema so no meme related mess thankfully.

My god did I laugh my head off when the villager turned out to be voiced by Matt Berry
The way my brain works is so weird. I come home and I’m just dead. I have a feeling it might have something to do with it getting dark early and also not getting enough sleep. Or iron or something.
I spend time from 5pm to 9pm just eating, being zonked out, and staring into space pretty much.
I had a deadline 10 days ago, and because I’ve spent much of this week being exhausted, I didn’t meet that deadline and submitted nothing. I’m going to try not to beat myself up too hard sighs
how is your vitamin D
Potentially D(eficient)
nice 🌞
Smashing out this research assessment - i wonder if I can get a small extension to Monday due to being unwell the past couple of weeks, but I don’t have a doctor’s note. Ugh
It’s my own fault but UGH
Just ask. I’ve had a few extensions and they didn’t require any proof at all.
Depends on the institution, but you can always submit something to the spec con team saying that you are in the process of getting a doctor’s note, and tell them when said appointment to get the note is. Then usually they’ll wait for you to upload documentation :)
I’ll look into it tomorrow I think, I might only need a stat Dec possibly. I don’t think my doctor would backdate a certificate anyway, I didnt see them.
Either way, I’ll do my best to get it done before Friday :D
THE STARS ARE VEILED
My daughter’s having some friends over next week for some birthday drinks. These are her 4 closest pals and it makes my heart swell the love and bond they all share as she is an only child. They are the most loveliest, responsible mixed bag of young people I’ve ever met.
The man and I will be in the backyard with a bonfire going roasting spuds and marshmallows because I don’t feel comfortable about leaving them on their own considering 3 of them are slightly under the drinking age. (And yes, I do have permission from their parents).
Also I’ll be making them some cocktails but they will be a little on the weaker side. They won’t know that though.
Love that you’re creating a safe, respectful environment for your kid and friends, that’s really awesome.
So what kind of cocktails? Is the good old fruit tingle done?
The good old fruit tingle is on the list! Cosmopolitans, illusions, tequila sunrise. Tbh they’ll probably only have 1 or 2 cocktails each and then stick to vodka & Solo.
I remember the first cocktail a friend’s parent made for me at 16, some Crem de Menthe abomination. I loved it
Maybe a grasshopper?
My first was a scotch & coke in a coffee mug made by my brother’s girlfriend at one of my siblings birthdays. I think I was 15.
Ouzo and raspberry soft drink. Brutal lol
I love them. That’s my drink of choice when dinning out.
As responsible as you are you’re still allowed to bring up embarrassing childhood stories at the worst time.
Of course. And I do.
I suggest Black Russians. They don’t taste like lolly water and you can dilute them quite a bit and still feel like you are drinking booze.
That’s a good idea. Thanks
of course they are lovely and responsible, they have a good role model in you 😘🐱
Nawww.
I never let any of them go home on their own. They either get picked up or I’ll take them home because safety is so important to me. In return they shower me with love.
My kid will say “You can’t go home at this hour on the bus. My mother will have kittens”. 😂
