Scary day today, I'm going to wear some new shoes, lovely very supportive soft impact easy to wear sandals, in orange!!. Always a little risky to wear new shoes when you have sciatica. ๐ค๐ป๐ค๐ป
Well bollocks and crap and all that.
I've been asked to work at another site one day a week for the rest of the year on a temp basis.
I'm not exactly thrilled at having to be at another site, first off the drive there and back and not really knowing anyone over there.
sigh
I may not have a choice in this either. I did say it has to be passed through someone else and be ok with them but they're away at the moment, I could probably say to my line manager and suggest that it's not a good idea to transfer me but at the same time it leaves my site unattended as well for one day a week to cover for their absence.
I need to think through this and how I'm going to navigate this. In the end I may not have a choice but to comply.

I had some really good food cooking inspirations later on in the week early this morning.
Now I'm not sure I'm motivated enough after today to do it even though food is one of those rare things that brings me a lot of joy at times.
Went for a bit of a scoot to the supermarket after I popped into work to pick up a laptop. Banger of a day. People are out enjoying the weather everywhere and my washing on the clothes horse out on the balcony is drying up reeeal nice too.
I have my last meeting of the day at 4pm and then I'll get back out amongst it #gingerinthesun
I found a flea bite on my footโฆ Melbcat is very annoyed Iโm not letting her outside and traumatized her with the vacuum. Sheโs not going to like when I strip the bed
ow, they itch like crazy
the r/MelbourneTrains sub always makes me happy, I smile every time an update hits my feed ๐
I think it's because it's all posted in pure enjoyment of Melbourne and trains

Scootering along the Yarra's edge during peak hour = lots of pedestrians with zero spatial awareness. Almost cleaned up one girl who made a very sudden 90 degree turn while staring deep into her phone screen. That was a mix of stressful and relaxing 6/10 one thumbs up.
That kind of zero spatial awareness makes me long for those ancient Briton chariots, with revolving scythes on their wheels a la Boudicca. I wonder if one could bolt scythes onto a scooter .... hrrrm.

A friend who I hadn't seen for ages asked me recently what my music taste was like now and I answered with "It's easier to say I'm not into something (Country, mumble rap and most R&B) than pin down a genre." Which is true - Spotify at the end of every year spews out its stats and somehow I managed to listen to a shit ton of different genres.
BUT! The recent Spotify DJ guy, as well as the daylist thing really has hit home how much prog metal I still listen to.
