    Hey Centrelink, if my appointment is booked for 2:30pm, that means it’s at 2:30pm and you shouldn’t call twice at 9:23 and 9:36 and get pissy that I’m not available. “Be sure to be ready at the time it’s scheduled for.” THAT TIME ISN’T FOR FIVE HOURS GO AWAY.

    Also Astro Bot is an amazing game. Strong recommend.

        It’s total horseshit.

        And it was for a participation appointment that’s literally just someone reading a participation plan I’m already aware of and asking if I want to change anything. It’s something I could easily do in the app and save an operator for someone trying to call.

      Miss Meow will volunteer to eat them for him. Miss Meow is currently very unhappy with the portion sizes of her meals at the moment, and is rather disgruntled that I keep picking up Mr Woof’s excess dry food and not letting her eat that either.

          One advantage to a toothless cat, bites are not something I need to be concerned about! You might like to pass on to Ted how lucky he is to have a heater to sit on, Miss Meow is not provided with such luxuries.

    I had an accident trimming my beard last night, the length attachment fell off while using and took a huge chunk of it out. Didn’t have any other option but to trim it all off. I kept the mo and some of the “soul patch” (had to look up what that’s called, strange name). I haven’t been hairless on my face like this for years, it’s an adjustment. Feeling wind on my cheeks this morning was weird and kinda nice. Maybe this was divine intervention to change it up.

      My husband’s been growing beards lately and he can’t get the trimming right near the top lip. Doesn’t matter how many you tube videos he’s watched he somehow makes it look weird so he shaves it all off and the growing process starts again.

      I don’t care if he has a beard or not. I just don’t want to see food dangling off the mo.

        I used to trim my own and it looked pretty bad each time. Started going to the local barbers, and they’re fantastic. I go every 6-8 weeks, and in between trim it myself a bit.

        They’re worth it.

          Good idea. Maybe I should give it a go first though.

          When he goes in for a hair cut he gets his eyebrows trimmed. Surely that’s a sign you’re getting old when the hairdresser asks “Sir would you like your eyebrows trimmed too”?

    All hands meeting. Executive verbally wanks himself about the company.

    None of this matters to my job.

    I have work to do. Kindly fuck off.

    Last day of school for the term.

    I could have sworn traffic was lighter today as I was driving to work today.

    Hopefully it’ll be the same on the way home.

    Also I’ve been granted some luck and reprieve and I’m going shopping for burger materials this afternoon after work. Yay!!

      Same re: traffic, I’m guessing private schools ended a day early (there is an unholy congregation of them in this area).
