Rewatching Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging for first time since I was teen, and I have to say it was an excellent film then and it's an excellent film now. I remember my best friend being upset at the start when the main character complains about her nose because she has the exact same one, and I didn't understand how mortifying it was because I was a boy. I also remember badgering her about the slang because she'd moved from Wales the year before.
Realising I'll probably be in Melbourne through most of summer - weighing up if I should cough up and get myself an air purifier. I don't need a huge one, I live in a modest 2br apt... Anyone got recommendations for a brand/model that they know works well and is easy to get replacement filters for?
homedics AP-25 here. You can get HEPAs from their website from amazon, all over the place.
Honestly before I was thinking it's not going to be a crazy bushfire season this far south after so much rain but I'm no longer betting on those thoughts.
I've got to an assignment where I present both sides of an argument, I have two to choose from:
-
should the date of 26 Jan as Australia Day be changed?
-
is there room for Indigenous culture in modern Australian society?
I really like both options, as someone originally from NZ where it isn't perfect but our Indigenous culture is held is much more esteem, I like the culture argument but also as someone who is firmly in the move the date camp, I'm also interested in that. which should I choose?
Is VicRoads customer service always fucked or is a one hour wait with a massive queue normal?
Had a meh day at work. Had to ask people to come in at least one day to the office just so I don't get shit for not enforcing the 3 day rule. (It's all about perception and some people were coming in 1 day a month and was getting comments from management)
A bit concerned about a friend of mine. We'd normally chat every day but they've been quiet since Saturday so have checked in with them to see if they're OK and no response... Hopefully will hear from them soon.
Just did my tax. Looks I owe the ATO $2k. Fucking brutal. Getting promoted looks like it’s come with a big old fuck you from the tax man.
Dammit, I think I might've gotten what Bacon has. Headachey, throat sore, feel weak and tired. Must be the change in weather? Time to chug more water and make sure I've got plenty to eat...
Day awf so gonna get a bit more of the watering system done.
This thing will hopefully save a shitload of time.
But doing the mafs, 1 hr of run time will deplete the 8000l of water tank by 15% each go which means it has to go on town water which is a bit disappoint.
But also in doing the mafs, if it fails it's just mind boggling how much water there is at full tilt.
