    Odd question, but do ya’ll ever plan out other lives for yourself? Occasionally I’ll just sit on realestate and and look shit up. Might be like “alright, if I split with the mrs can I afford to buy a unit? where am I gonna live?” or “Fuckit, lets all move up to bright! I hate it here, alright what can we afford?”

    I find it really therapeutic for some reason. These alternate lives I’ll never live out.

      I’d be surprised if anyone doesn’t occasionally entertain alternative lives. Very Sliding Doors.

      Pretty sure we’ve all wondered where we might be if we’d picked different doors.

        I creep myself out when I go too far down that path. All of the things that have happened to me worked together to make me who I am, and at a certain point in my musings I realise that by changeing the things that happened to me I am effectively erasing myself from existance entirely.

    I’ve been having after 9pm thoughts all day about what I’d do if I don’t get this job, just because I haven’t heard back from them straight away.

    I need to keep in mind these things take time and there are still over avenues open if this doesn’t come through

      Yep. I applied for a niche job that I’d be perfect for and it closed a week ago, whyyyy haven’t they called me? I’m getting a bit better at detaching, something will come up when it’s meant to.

        I have done the recruitment thing from both side and trust me - I know it sucks but it can take time!! Hold in there. Also I think it’s ok to contact to ask about progress after, say week/week and a half. If it’s a more senior or niche position it can take a bit longer to sift through.

    The afternoon sleepiness is upon me.

    Coffee not helping.

    2 hours of meetings on the horizon.

    Grant me strength oh mighty Odin.

    Mice are so cute!!! Ugh, their little paws, their little noses, their cute eyes. This course is great just for doing health checks on mice tbh

    If the rain and wind could hold off until say 9pm that’d be great. I’m meant to be doing outdoor cooking with kids this evening.
