Why am I up >:( Oh well, better make the most of the morning before it gets spicy.
What's everyone's plans for this afternoon and tomoz?
I'm still debating whether to go into the office tomorrow if I'm going to have the ac running at home at 25C overnight/all day anyway, to stop the place from being a total furnace
Well today's date only 30 so that's fine, I'll just have a fan on. Tomorrow I'm working from 11 to 630 so I'll dodge all the heat in my nice ACd office
I envy your home that is comfortable with just a fan on at 30 (I was once the same...)
Im wrecked from lack of sleep so will be doing as little as possible. Probably guitar and Gibson stuff lol

Duck Duck artist's market in the city today. It will be an interesting trip at least
cooking and unpacking, oh my.
Making that huge batch of hoppin john was a pain in that tiny kitchen - constantly felt like I was going to knock something over and hit my head on the range hood - but I DID IT and did all the dishes as well (as depressed as that made me). I hate this kitchen so much!
One major major accomplishment though was that while looking for the TVP mince I finally found the energy and "fuckit"-ness to unpack the dreaded remaining pantry boxes!!!!! Took a lot of faffing around and moving and adjusting to work out a reasonable arrangement but I managed to get almost everything into some kind of a sensible location. What a huge weight off my back not having those two dastardly boxes in my room any more :)
After all that I had no time to do any work as my friend turned up and we wandered around the shops nearby a bit, but now she's gone and I've had a bit of downtime... gonna have an early dinner and maybe do 1-2 hrs of work before I call it a night.
Productive weekend but geez can't wait for one where I do sweet FA and can feel good about it.
Have decided I'll go into the office tomorrow to work as I remembered that when my neighbour has the aircon on it intermittently grunts every 5 minutes which annoys the fuck out of me. Plus, free coffee. And I need a break from this stiflingly tiny unit. The bedroom is super warm despite having the blinds down, windows closed and lounge aircon on since noon. :(

Well, I've gotten up for these gas people. Not sure what time they'll be here, just that they said after 7. Definitely gonna try and squeeze in a nap, because 3 hours of sleep is absolutely not gonna suffice. My thing's at 1, but probably closer to 12:30, and I still need to get the vacuuming, mopping, and a load of washing done. Plus move a bunch of my crap that is currently just about everywhere around the house, pending packing

A hot pot, hot chips with hot sauce, and a hot chocolate. Should not be difficult this weather.

This heat will be much more enjoyable if the rain holds off in Brisbane. Looking ok so far. Hibernating with a Test on is perfect.
Parcel update (the express post one from the NBN I made the mistake of redirecting)!
So after my update on Thursday it did a little bit, but nothing interesting. It bounced from sunshine West to Melbourne airport, then bounced back to sunshine West where it sat until today.
Except a couple hours ago, something did happen! Any guesses where it is now? Drumroll please.... Adelaide!
