In a surprise twist, lockdown is over! I was filling at work when a customer who was reading her phone told me. We were both surprised as we were convinced it would be extended. There was a fu...

Mum sent us kids through a photo of Ma sitting in her chair in her home. It was side-on so could only see a side profile, but I still understood that she was maybe scared. Mum said the doctor sa...

---

So Easter is cancelled this year for my family, on account of a further 8 cases today. I woke up for a text from my mum saying it’s off. A further case will be announced in tomorrow’s numbers w...

---

I finished reading “Honeybee” by Craig Silvey. Not what I expected at all. I’m glad I didn’t read any reviews so I didn’t even know what the plot was going to be. It used real Australian citie...

---

There’s pros and cons to living anywhere I guess. I’m into my third year of a lease already at the Newstead apartment and it’s crazy how fast time flies. A pro Ive found is that sometimes I run...

---

Last week was a tough bloody work week, ergh, so glad it was over. The 2IC came back from two weeks off, even though he had a month off when Covid all went down, and he went home on his first da...

---

I finally have a sofa! OMG. I was asked to stay back at work on Thursday when I’d organised for it to be delivered after I was meant to finish at noon, so I said I’d work until I got the text th...

---

I’m doing alright. Another busy work week I’m gradually making my way through. I’m really keen on a beach day on my days off, as there’s recently always been something holding me back, like the...

---

I hate, hate, hate waiting around on people/deliveries/anything. Anything that cramps my style really, I absolutely hate it. I’ve been home all day and night. No word on where the rest of my de...

---

I surprised Brandé with a visit on Wednesday, for his birthday. I’d taken a risk on him even being home, as he had both jobs that day, but I managed to get enough info from him that he was home ...

---

I’m starting to feel old. I think Michael Jackson was onto something living out his youth at an older age. The childhood stardom took away his childhood. I’m not saying I’m Michael Jackson. ...

---

I got asked if I could do an extra shift yesterday so I went in - ergh, starting work at 6am on a normal day-off is torture. Anyway it was only 4 hours so I went back home and tried to prep myse...

---

I’m sitting here waiting for my asshole to heal. No, I haven’t been fucked every which way to Sunday. I finally went and got my (long overdue) STI test done at Rapid. I’m so thankful they are o...

---

Just documenting this for future reference. My state goes to stage 3 restrictions as of midday on Friday July 3rd, so even though it already feels fairly normal again here now, that will definite...

---

So, where I’m at. I don’t even really know where to start. These are ‘unprecedented’ (word of the year folks!) times for sure. And it amazes me how vastly different it seems to be for so many o...

---

I try not to be a Debbie-Downer in these unheard-of times, but after hearing our Prime Minister’s press conference last night, I’m afraid that my anxiety may come back worse than it was that one ...

---

Things wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t for the media-hype, really. I could have killed whoever that “journalist” at the “Daily Mail” was yesterday who posted “BREAKING! WOOLWORTHS SHUTTING ALL...

---

I’m not looking forward to work this week. Humans are in panic mode thanks to the media. The toilet paper aisle is bare at my local. Am missing something? Why is toilet paper something to stoc...

---

I got through my 2-day work-week (Saturday and Sunday). I dunno how I did it guys. Life is so tough 😝 I’m now on another week off for Mardi Gras. I’m nowhere near as exciting as I used to be. ...

---

I’m at Petrie train station, waiting for Steve, who said he’d pick me up, but I’m a bit early. I’m taking him to Hungry Jack’s (kinda the same as Burger King, I believe) for his birthday. He’s ...

---

I couldn’t think of what to do today. I was kind of just wandering around aimlessly. So I went into the city, as I tend to do, just for something to do. I’d already seen the new Jumunji movie, ...

---

Just writing again because I’m at gym and decided to hop on the bike and do lazy exercises rather than the weights I should be doing. It’s been an interesting day. I woke up this morning to a te...

---

I don’t really feel like writing, as is evident by the lack of entries lately, but I figure I should jot something down. My New Year’s was relatively uneventful. I was invited to a house party b...

---

My birthday yesterday was rather uneventful. The most exciting thing I did was leave the house to go buy food so I could pig out and catch up on more episodes of “I’m Dyin’ Up Here”, which has b...

---

There’s still a lot of smoke in the air. I normally wouldn’t notice it from ground level just walking around, but being on the 18th level of an apartment building, I can definitely see it. I w...
