    I asked for an extension from the real estate agent
    On the twice-yearly inspection, ridiculously invasive
    They graciously gave me another week to prepare
    Though I think the concept is entirely unfair.

    Snuck out of the meet and greet. They can stay in the office, I’d prefer to spend my personal time doing my own thing.

    This is one of the temu things I got

    Simon can’t be fucked today.

    Some fancy douchebag from the conglomerate is here so we all have to put on our fineries and do the little dance.

    Whew that was a super hectic talk-through of whatever shonky slides I already have but it looks like I am mostly there. The power of just slapping up one image with notes on another screen so you can talk as little or as much as needed depending on time!

    Looks like my supervisor is pretty flat out marking other stuff next week so it really is hyper-compressed crunch time rest of this week to get the slides to a usable place, then get a 90% draft of the thesis across by latest Tuesday next week.

    Ah well, I operate best under pressure and maybe it’s a good target for me to try and get this wrapped up by my RL cake day around that due date as a bonus motivator… time to clear the weekend and get more food ordered! 🦾

    My brain is potentially cooked. Been earwormed by obscene chants from Primary school. No idea who taught us these things but they need a stern talking to!

    It’s all happening at Norfland (again). This time a car has driven through it. My local shopping centre is living up to its reputation for drama

    I tried one of the trails near my place on the way home yesterday. I don’t think I’ll incorporate it into the commute. It was very steep on both ends and a lot of work, even on the ebike at full assist. I’ll keep looking at the trails though, there may be a shortcut that’s a decent balance between hills and cutting out intersections.

            If I can ride these other trails I think I’ll take them anyway. They cut out some annoying intersections next to a busy road.

            And the ride yesterday was tough, but the view was beautiful once I finally got to the top. Much nicer than even suburban cycle paths to get around.

    Only just got home after a long but mostly productive stretch at uni. I’m almost there with the slides, and I’m actually quite proud of the effort (shock, horror). Doing it has also helped me feel more clear about the flow of my thesis and where all the references should go, so I’m feeling positive about the momentum. Finally! It always only happens near the end, hey…

    I’ve also noticed although petrol should be continuing on a downward trend, with everything going on overseas, I feel like they’ll shoot up again any minute now so decided to fill up on the way back at 169. I’m also very sure my rear right tyre has a slow leak from when I was moving house and busted a different tyre. 30 in everything else and 17 in the offending one. Car service and tyre replacement definitely first on the cards when I’m done.

    Does anyone else eat fish n chips with a fork? I can eat them without, I just prefer to use one if I’m at home.
