Thanks Lily. Also I found my passport and I might make it on time if I apply for the 1st quarter session for 2016. So I'll go for that one instead. Also more bad news, after getting one thing right: The internet is being shit lately. Like the speed is probably just as bad as somewhere in Central Africa. I know it's must have something to do with the weather, since we've been getting a massive thunderstorms for the past few days. So I've checked to see if I was the only one who this issue. Turns out not only it's been problematic for most people in my area, but I've just learn that the northern part of Melbourne has been hit with a tornado. It's not as big as the ones in the U.S but a tornado is a tornado. Well, time to go downtown and by a new hard drive for back up tomorrow. Better safe than sorry. Good lord, I hope things get better for you - tornadoes are scary! I hope you're safe... I am glad you got your passport back, that's the kind of thing one does not want to be without.

Was but it got cancelled, which explains I didn't hear people screaming out the in the streets, instead I see more people either taking the piss at the warning or being pissed off with the shoddy phone line cause... that's Telstra for you. Still, better safe than sorry, gotta get an extra hard drive.

well, my coffee machine is dead. It made good coffee, really but it no longer seems able to brew at all. So now I sit here drinking a cup of blasphemy (instant) wondering if I can fit a new brewer into my budget.

Man, it sucks. I hear you. Maybe you could try go for Vietnamese style next time for emergencies. Doesn't need a machine, just one of those french filters and a bit of time.

So Murphy is trying my patience. First my car dies (engine burned out due to lack of attention on keeping oil in it on my part) so I had to spend all morning loan-shopping and getting a replacement. Got that done in a hurry (actually scored a pretty sweet replacement, but I loved that car and nearly owned it outright), though being woken up by a mechanic calling me to say my car is dead left me in a foul mood. Come home, relax a bit, step out to smoke, and watch several wasps crawling into my apartment though a crack in the door, but they're between the outer and inner walls. So I have the exterminator coming in tomorrow. Oh, did I mention the bastards have somehow managed to also get between the glass and screen on my windows and I'm phobic of the little fuckers? Yeah. I want a refund on today.

I hate wasps. Burn the place down.

I've got a very nasty strain on my Achilles Tendon yesterday. The pain is exquisite. I'm heading to the ER this morning at the advice of a duty nurse over the phone. I'm rather hoping this is something that can be fixed without too much undue stress.

Was prescribed an anti inflammatory and a week off work.
Oh, and physio. Blech

First world problem coming up: I've been getting owned by my closest friends on Facebook for some of the most dumbass, paltry reasons. They hit me below the belt, so I hit back with another intimate personal attack, and now the room is covered in shit after dropping into the fan, and they, and every mutual are out for my blood.
And this was all on my birthday.
Meh, I dunno. I feel strangely good about this. #punk

They crap on you, so you respond in kind, and somehow you're the bad guy, like you're not allowed to defend yourself or even say the same things they say? They can dish it out but can't take it? Yeah, I know that feeling. Happy belated-birthday, by the way...

Social media in a nutshell. Sorry to hear.
Happy belated birthday as well.

We've actually buried the hatchet now (that was quick). We all agreed it didn't feel right to be angry at one another.

Mixed feelings today. On the one hand, being able to walk without pain again is great, but on the other hand I gotta go back to work tomorrow.

Don't tempt me. Today was stupid in ways I'd rather not get into right now. It's hard for me to properly express it without making otherwise intelligent people look like blithering idiots.
Suffice to say, this will be a short week and I'll have a bit more recovery time before diving back in.
