Enjoy the lovely weather today ☀
On a train. There is an over abundance of short shiny dresses and facial glitter. Must be a Spice Girl around somewhere.
TW blood
Bloody got a blood nose on the bus. Nobody around. I carry a gigantic arse backpack around with me which contains everything I could ever need while on a trip, except, crucially, tissues…
Managed to get it under control with a head tilt though, but my face and hands didn’t fare too well without tissues, and I probably looked like either a murderer, or a murderee. Ended up having to rip pieces off of a letter I forgot to take out of my bag and wet them with my water and use that to try and clean myself up a bit. Absolutely looked like a crackhead in the process, half surprised I didn’t get kicked off
Finally got off at a train station and started trying to properly clean up and apparently bumped my nose a bit too much so the whole thing started again. No fucking toilet paper. Sink that’s permanently stuck on really hot for some reason. I heard a line forming and ended up hobbling down the stairs to the customer service desk while holding my nose and looking at the roof, and asked the PSOs for some tissues, they didn’t have any but said there was a better toilet down the end of that platform which did have toilet paper. Managed to get it under control but what a wild adventure. Also stole some toilet paper should my nose break on the way back
No clue what caused it, it just decided to happen at the most inconvenient time possible🙃
Edit: rewrote half my comment because Jesus Christ I wasn’t making any sense at all
6th night without power. I’m so over it. Anxious AF.
@Reonn @CEOofmyhouse56 crap, what area are you in? I checked the outages list and it was still huge yesterday. I’m in a rural area that gets regular outages, but they are usually resolved within about 12 hours. But the amount of trees down, damaged or basically exploded on the drive out from the city today was… exceptional. I’m not surprised it’s taking them quite a while to rectify all the issues.
To do list for tomorrow (putting it here so I am obligated to follow-through):
- Call Tafe and finish up enrolment
- speak to GP for new BC script
- eat lunch (important!!)
- play with/nap with cat
Some sad news. A neighbour found the corpse of Mr Magpie. He and Mrs Magpie lived in the big gum tree in the roundabout at the end of the street and raised several families there. Presumably the hot windy day last week knocked him off his perch.
However, in slightly more cheerful news, Mrs Magpie fronted up for feeding time at another neighbour’s place this morning, bringing another Mrs Magpie with her. Very very Thornbury.
