Adoption Certificate for Nellie, the Daily Thread numbat (with thanks to @Catfish)
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)
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
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.
Iβve also picked up a katsu curry bowl and am ready to withdraw into seclusion for the evening.
THE STARS ARE VEILED
I donβt really fancy cooking and cleaning up after a stir fry today.
I think Iβll just air fry some thick crunchy chips tonight.
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 left the windows open and now my entire apartment smells like a bushfire. yey.
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
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
For a sec there I wondered why you were on a boat in the dark, lol
Smuggling. Shhhh
I was on the Rottnest ferry as a wee lad and went to the toilet. I became airborne mid-stream multiple times.
I was playing "get in the door" on hard mode today
pakige
Much pakige!
that's , a serious big pakige
I've managed to sort out the microchip records for Mr Woof and Miss Meow - I somehow had two seperate accounts and could only access one. They have now been merged and I can access both records. It didn't help that I had lost the number for Mr Woof's chip and it's taken me ages to find it.
I discovered that Mr Woof was still listed under his prison ID, "Scampy", a name that he hasn't used since he was a puppy incarcerated at the Lost Dogs Home. It's been fixed now, and I have the numbers securely recorded so I'll be able to register them with the new council.
When I was a kid of our dogs was called Scamp, and she also came from the lost dogsβ home!
