    Shit sleep last night. Can’t think of anything to do for our wedding anniversary next week. I’ve had two shits already which is unheard of. It’s fucking hot. I will survive.

      I’m surprised cookie monster is there. Surely Vicpol with their extremely sound judgement chucked him in the drunk tank, then refused to do a blood test, fail to communicate the charge, then didn’t offer him 2 phone calls and just chucked him out on the street at 4am on a monday with no way home except for an 8km walk. (It was a while ago but I’m still bitter).

        He doesn’t know where he is. He’s high as hoeing down cookies. He wouldn’t remember his age let alone a phone number.

    I just signed up to Proton Mail & am changing over my email, calendar, setting up the VPN and migrating all my stuff to their cloud server. I’ve only just started the process and I’m exhausted already. I haven’t even looked at the password manager yet to decide if I want to change to that or not. But storing my digital life in Switzerland instead of USA seems like a very good idea at the moment.

      I have one I’m afraid to contaminate with data leaks so I literally use it for nothing. No, I don’t follow the logic either.

        Yeah, I’ve been contemplating it for a while, it’s just taken the recent issues in US to give me enough push to actually act.

      I’ve got proton mail and I love the security of it. Haven’t looked at the other parts of it yet tho, just the mail.

    Working the public holiday is bad enough, but whyyy did our central engineering team have to throw a spanner in the works and break stuff to ‘keep things interesting’ and make today extra-not-cruisy?!? 🤬

    Coming back from beechworth, we all had a great time. The boys got to pat lizards and feed frogs. There were animals grazing around the grounds and they got to watch a crocodile be fed.

    To top it all off, they use a product work sells that lines up perfectly with an upcoming product launch. I asked if I could use them as a case study and they said yes, so I could retroactively spin this as a work trip

    One discombobulated Boyo is back home after discovering halfway into work that they’ve given everyone the day off.

    So hot outside. Could be worse, could be humid. 12 more new records to go… then I just need to redo 16 more completely and I’m almost done. The rest only need remeasuring with a tape measure… which is more about driving around to do the bastard things real quick. I could do some while I’m out here and traffic is chill. Leave about 70 to update with more precision on some cooler weather day. The end is in sight for this side of town!

    Address changing underway, along with resetting passwords for a zillion customer portals I’ve not logged into since last move and have inevitably forgotten. Blargh.

    Holy sweaty shirtballs. I am COOKED, was out from 11 to 6 jumping in and out of the car but I got the time sensitive stuff done, and I pushed on through to correct ALL the other measurements in one day to make the most of cruisey traffic… and I’M DONE WITH MY DATA COLLECTION!!1!1! (for that side of town, anyway. Got one more area that I might have to let go of if the weather doesn’t play nice this weekend/next week)

    I’ll be glad to not drive over the effing Westgate for another year now, thank you very much.

    Bonus is I managed to get some cheap Asian veggies while stopping for refreshments (kang kung, choy sum, winter gourd and very cheap small round eggplants). Plus a full tank of cheap petrol. Ordered pizza for dinner as a very well-deserved treat… just waiting for the clothes to wash and I’ll pick it up while I do the laundromat run. Whew, what a day.

    Just came back from shopping, lots of people about. The fruit and veg shop was busy as, which is good to see. Got a busy day in the factory tomorrow, so it’s gonna be a very hot one for me.
