  • I'm proud of myself. I spontaneously took over a shift at work I was scared of, but it'll be over soon now and I'm proud of myself for doing it.

    That's great! New things are hard, even when they're easy. By the way, I only saw your post after I had written one with the same starting words.
    I'm starting to feel constant bone-deep exhaustion. First I was at my family's, and now we have a house-guest. Why does being with others have to be so exhausting...
    My NC headphones have been soaked in water, they're drying now. I so hope they're not broken. I feel really panicky right now. I need my headphones.

    They're still not completely dry yet. I have to wait and see.

    Simple deduction. Let's hope they aren't Bose noise-cancelling headphones. None of their line of products is waterproof. Sony asserts something similar, though they still provide an IPX4 water-resistance rating on some of their products.
    I'm (once again) going to tackle my fear of driving. I'll have driving lessons with a teacher who knows that I have a license but am a scared driver. Wish me luck! One day, I'll manage to overcome this fear.

    Good luck! Keep a level head and take deep breaths. You can do this~
    Shortly before a meltdown. This day was extremely straining so far. Please let me resist until I am finally alone. People keep talking around me.
    Christmas shopping in a shopping center is so exhausting. I started kind of enjoying myself, but now I'm completely drained.

    Tomorrow is my first day of work. I'm really nervous. A new phase in life starts.

    It went well, I'd say, for a first day. Though I'm absolutely exhausted. I can't remember ever being so tired. I hope this gets better. How else do people have lives around their jobs?

    Every day is different. On some days I want to come home, cry/yell in pillow and just sleep, so that's what i do. on other days i feel very smart, cool and strong, having a lot of energy and will to do other things. and having money to live helps as a motivation!

    It will get easier after you learn the ropes.
    Just pace yourself.
    I love the place where we live now. There's beautiful nature close by where we can go for walks, which is really natural. So much water. My brain is detoxing from the huge city where I lived for the past years.

    Dan Andrews was the premier of Victoria.
    Therefore, Sydney, naturally. :cool:

    Chris Minns, in NSW, has integrity.
    Both have the same narrative.
    Read between the lines. ;)
    Urgent advice requested about trick or treaters. I had only thought as far as holding a plate of sweets in front of them. What do you say? How many do they get? What if I run out of sweets?

    Neigbours kid used to ring my doorbell all the time, i could hear him coming on his scooter. So i opened the window above and jumpscared him with a big booming "OI!", shat his pants so he did. His dad heard and gave him an extra bollocking lol

    Saw a great story about that one time, people could never catch who kept ringing their doorbell early in the morning so they set up a camera and caught the culprit. It was a goose.

    I'll go to a trial training session to a kickboxing club next week in my new city. I'm a bit nervous but also really looking forward to it. I haven't exercised for a while, but used to go regularly to my kickboxing classes, and it'll be nice to start again.

    Kickboxing/MMA is really good to get into if you have the right musculoskeletal structure, which I don't. If you do you can really get healthy with it.

    I'm not perfectly suited for it because I seem to have some sort of hip impingement. But I try to avoid all movements that hurt, and it's so much fun that I consider the general health and mental health benefits to be more important for me.
    My family visit had an awful start. I was looking forward to it, but my arrival was a catastrophe. I was already so exhausted from the trip, and now I am really sad and upset as well.
    I'm about to receive and supervise the moving company who brings our furniture. My partner was supposed to be here too but he's delayed. I'm so nervous that I'm nauseated.

    Just step up and take charge, you can have a breakdown once the job is done.
    After days of working non-stop, I'm got extremely close to having a meltdown now. We're in the car though so I don't want to let it out too much. Have my Tangle toy and am reading now after some crying. It'll be okay.
    Our elderly cat is really nervous because of our move, and because the apartment is a mess. We are trying to give her reassurance and let her hide a lot. I feel sorry because we can't explain to her what's going on.
    I'll have a very stressful and socially demanding day today, and I already feel wobbly. I might post something later if things go downhill.

    Wishing you fortitude to get through the day. 💚
    Andy Weir just writes such phenomenal books. Re-reading Project Hail Mary for the second time, and it's as amazing as ever. I guess you have to be a science nerd to love his books.
