I heard back today the university job I interviewed for want to move on to references. This is the interview where I had all the technical problems, and they still want to progress.
The salary sacrificed ebike dream is becoming more of a reality
The nip strikes again
Goodnight all ❤️
Friend (might I add, who was super late last time I saw her for no good reason) got her Jetstar flight delayed, and she's only just arrived at the airport, where she's meant to get her next flight with a different airline. She also hasn't slept. Such a shitty situation to be in. Hopefully if she misses it, the airline will help her reschedule.
I'm just sitting here waiting to hear if she got on that plane and the suspense is killing me.
Edit: she made the flight. Her contact name is now Jetstar.

Okay, okay, I must brave Ikea and Kmart today... I am gonna go, and not glue myself to this couch...
E: ikea done, damn i have to say they have some hypnotic VGM style Muzak, I felt like I was floating in some special waiting room dream... now to brave tacky Kmart
E2: kmart done but how in the fuck is every single one out of simple, basic S hooks?! No, not with a flat top, round so I can hook my pots and pans onto this weird metal bracket hanging from the wall in the micro kitchen. I'm loathe to drive all the way to northland just for these but also don't want to wait for delivery..

I think Catch accidentally doubled up and gave me twice the amount of dishwashing tablets. I guess I don't need to order anymore for like 2 years now
Check your bank statement to see if they double charged you.
No double charge. I put in two separate orders close together so maybe they accidentally fulfilled it twice
Can get such a good deal on two pairs of glasses at Specsavers right now, including a pair of polarised prescription sunglasses, but their range is either tack and el cheapo, or obscenely priced for what it is. I'm thinking my gorgeous features deserve better?
I've found really good service at opsm , they even changed lenses on old glasses for me
I 2nd OPSM. Specsavers frames are crappy.
Damn, I am so gonna be a peas and mash adult.
I was in a hurry the other week and stashed the tyre pump and battery separately. Found the pump yesterday and was like, yeah, I have a vague memory of that and thought hmm, maybe I took the battery (I have a few batteries so wouldn’t have noticed it was missing) back inside.
Nope, just found the battery somewhere I wouldn’t had thought to look if it wasn’t for my putting something else away…
I could just play hide and seek with myself. 😭🤣
I do stuff like that more often than I’d care to admit. One spectacular example was stashing my new credit card so safely that I couldn’t find it, then had to cancel and order a new one. Then I found the original one, of course
I have done this ...lol
