🧡 Harmony Day 🧡
💜 National Single Parent Day 💜
Sadly my credit card’s interest free period on all purchases has come to an end. For 15 months I have had $10,000 parked in a savings account earning interest, which has gained me about $550 just for not paying off my card. I’m sad to see it go, but I guess its work is done. I just have to get used to seeing a minimal balance in my card offset account again.
Kittenpants was swaying a little while sitting so I was worried about the infection moving to her inner ear. Tied her normal carrier to the pram frame and dragged our butts down to emergency. Yep. Ear infection. They prescribed her more drops but didn’t have the ear cleaner wash in stock.
I’m completely wiped out for the next few days, the normal vet and pet shop will likely be shut tomorrow and so I’ve ordered the ear cleaner wash online and will wipe her ears out with warm water until that arrives. Pet shop didn’t have fast delivery… I’m wondering if I should have chanced it in an uber tomorrow morning and just seen if somewhere was open :(
Anyone want to play 5 min bad art? I’m bored.

Praise be!

Didn’t you try that last time?
Straight to the pool room.
F1 vs a tram please.
I love the tyre off to the side 😂
Got the word this afternoon that my role is being extended for another 18 months. They couldn’t swing making it permanent, but we’ll look at that again in 18 months’ time. No going back to Operations. All Strategy for me!
Getting paid big bucks to be the ideas man, that’s the life ;)
Tried to do the move details for my gas and electricity and had to phone AGL twice, the second time to actually have them do it since the system wouldn’t accept the info.
I need a drink.I’ve ordered another pet pram to replace the ruined one (keeping the frame as a spare part). Support has been a bit spotty the last few weeks and the little one still seems a bit off, so I want the security of knowing I can get Melbcat to the vet by myself in an emergency. My physical health/ability is another matter but it’s much easier with weight bearing wheels. The last pram paid for itself.
Really shitty at that cattery for making me shell out again
Got a cold call for a job that’s a lot like what I used to do so I’m 95% sure I don’t want it, but I’ve got dragged into a chat with the director on Monday anyway despite telling the recruiter it’s probably not for me??
Am bored/curious so I’ll go, although I don’t like wasting people’s time… but geez the recruiter was persistent. I’m sure he must be getting a cut for any interview he scores even though the chance of converting it into a hire is low
They don’t get a cut for the interview, but they do if you are hired and it’s a lot. Something like 5-10% of your salary. If they fill a $100k position, they get something like $10k. Or, their employer does. Which is why you see so many recruiters self-employed.
I figured it should be for hires, not just finding candidates and getting interviews. Guy must be a bit of a rookie if he thinks I’d seriously convert into a hire but I guess it’s a tight market in that specific sector.
Never feel bad about wasting a company’s time when it comes to hiring. Everyone gets jerked around in the hiring process, it’s good to give it back to them now and then
Very fair point. That makes me feel better about going in out of sheer curiosity and to work out where I fit in in the industry and maybe make a couple connections. It has been a long road towards not taking these evaluations too personally (whether positive or negative) or feel like I need to be selling myself at all times. And it’s a small industry, so it’s easy to feel over-conscious about what people think, but I’m sure I can still maintain a decent enough profile with a gracious “thanks but no thanks” at the end of the interview.
Fark it’s cold inside my non insulated house 😔
I saw sriracha hommus at Aldi and I wanted to buy it to freak my husband out because IT’S NOT HOMMUS IF THERE’S THINGS ADDED TO IT! 😂
It’s not even that good.
What hommus or hommus + sriracha?
The combo. Hommus is a top 3 dip.
Yeah. In a good hommus you should be able to taste all the ingredients. If you add sriracha to it, it fucks up all those flavours.
jalapeño hummus is the bomb
Using chillis as a vessel to shovel hommus inside one’s mouth is a common thing. Using it in the hommus is a very westernised thing.
Why does it even exist? Everyone who might like this will already have Hommus and Sirracha in their homes.
I guess it’s a novelty. Someone trying to come up with different combos.
I just found my spare car key, which I lost about 10 years ago! It was in a magnetic keyholder on the inside of the door of my shed in the carport. Now that I have found it I have a vague recollection of putting it there because I need to move the car to fully open the shed door. Obviously this did not turn out to be a helpful move.
Ah the wonderful recollections of putting an item intentionally somewhere only after you find it. How useful is that?
Hiding it so well you couldn’t find it!

I haven’t dealt with cash in years. It is very annoying. I am absolutely out of practice.
Cash? AFL? How primitive.
lovely and sunny out there
really want to to walk but I must rest
husband insists on playing tv shows with very loud bass sound bar. we have a tiny lounge area and a small screen. I just can’t even stay in the same room, even if it’s a show I love
it’s not immersive, it’s unreal and doesn’t add to the experience ,
OPP, how can I explain it?
(If the real answer to this might involve flamingos or pineapples you can pm me, but I might not be polite)
catfishin! haha
I don’t like fish. They smell bad.

Hey I never said there was anything wrong with that 😈🐟
Gawd walking to dans for goon just now after shifting those couches to the tip yesterday has roooned me.
Quads are on fire.
On the plus side all the neighbours were out doing their gardening things on the way home all saying hello to eachother so that was wholesome.
This morning I was saying g’day to all the adeladinans that walked past me. I got 3 hellos from 9 gdays, but the 6 who didn’t reply all had earphones in so they get a pass I guess
