Swedish meatballs 10/10

very early breakfast for Ted, who woke me up by walking up and down my body

he's been on a diet too, lost so much weight, he must be real hungry to wake me up

so hugs and half brekkie for the little guy who is not so round anymore 🐈‍⬛

Slowly working down the moving checklist. Power & gas connection is organised, and mail redirection done. I need to look at insurance, which is a bit of a nuisance as my current policy ends 3 days before the moving date. Removalist is the next major thing to organise, and then lots of lots of address changes.

I looked at NBN yesterday, it looks like it has FTTP installed already. That will be good, as I'm looking at getting a Ring doorbell and some security cameras. Money is just flowing from my accounts like water at the moment!

Countdown: 1 week from key collection. 1 month from final move date.

ted has a new cat tree, he has chairs and soft beds, this cardboard box lid on the balcony is his favourite spot

Alright.

No big surprises it's music and cat cuddles this evening.

I'm doing some work over the weekend but it's actually fun adjacent, so it's not too bad.

Cheers 🍻

My nephew just asked me who to vote for...stand back kiddo, aunty has got this 💪🏻

here's ted

The band I'm in just released our debut album today! Eeeeep 😱 but also woooo 🥳

I just opened Excel and the columns now use numbers as well as the rows. Formulas need to be written differently and now row number goes first instead of column.

What is going on? I feel confused, I feel sick, I'm dizzy, am I smelling toast?

So, pakige arrived

are you shitting me

yeah, today I found a dead penguin washed up on the beach. Called wildlife services and they said this area has loads of penguins and it's a natural event. Poor little guy.

Gooooood meowning everyone 😻

I think I have an ingrown toe nail. Hurts like a mf.

Home early yay.

Let the journey of Expedition 33 continue!

Attempting Swedish meatballs tonight. Must find zee Lingonberry jam.

All the exciting things I've ordered lately and the first thing to arrive has to be the mop bucket. Still, it is a very nice mop bucket. And it has wheels, so it can roll with me as I move around the room. Plus it's in a nice bright hazard warning yellow with "wet floor" warnings on the side, so Miss Meow and Mr Woof will know to be careful. Although it would probably be more useful if I actually had the mop.

Here's hoping the school down the road will have a barbecue going early tomorrow when we go to vote 🤞

Cheers voters 🍺 and 'ave a good weekend 👍

I like it when clients ask a lot of questions but my god, this one has gone to absolute town. Getting their money's worth I see.

On day two of “onboard for delivery within 24 hours” and you know, you KNOW the instant you poke them it shoots to NO DELIVERY FOR YOU

…but on a far more hilarious note hubs just tried to infolecture me on DNS somehow completely forgetting that I have worked for multiple webhosting companies and know way, way more than he does. Oh and sweetie, you are incorrect.

FRIDAY!!!!!

Working on building an internal LLM agent for work. Pretty exciting tbh.

Just reading about the poor woman who was found in the water down at point lonsdale yesterday. So sad. Looks like they're searching the back beach right now with 3 choppers again so maybe someone else was with her that they couldn't find yesyerday :(

Such a dangerous beach.

edit, nope an aircraft incident today, drowning yesterday jeez.

Back in the day (mid 90s, Saturday night) my local night club was The Grand Hotel in Essendon. Where was your's?

P.s. Friday night was Shooter's in Glenroy. $2.50 drinks.

Security cameras have definitely improved a lot since I last looked at them. Everything used to need hard wiring for power and all the apps were pretty glitchy last time I investigated.

I'm going to get the Ring doorbell, cameras with solar power and gutter mounts for the front and back, plus one in the main area inside. That should cover all the main approaches, and being a new estate most of the theives in the area will be targeting all the empty houses filled with brand new appliances anyway.
