Queer genderflux bean restoring my dad's car! Love crochet, mtg, DnD, and a million other things.

As an Aussie, especially one living in a fairly Country town, it is VERY WEIRD to me that the new announcer for the local train station has a southern American accent.

She's trying SO HARD to hide her drawl though so it is very cute 😅

I went out drinking after work tonight. I've been wanting to integrate more into the local bar scene, as a bartender I feel it's important to know other bartenders.

I forced myself to be extroverted, at least a little bit.

Telling the other bartenders that I'm trying to get to know everyone.

Sometimes I wonder what it means to be loved.

Other times, my girlfriend makes me crumpets at 4am because I've barely eaten and my body is sore from work.

And then I know that I am loved wholly and completely.

I did the Maths on the blanket I'm crocheting.
I counted how many rows I could do with one skein of yarn.

5 rows per skein, give or take.
I counted the rows in the blanket so far. 80.
That's 16 skeins of yarn.

I have seven skeins left, so approximately 30-35 rows left.

Just watched Brave Bang Bravern and uh....What The Fuck Was That 🤣 genuinely recommend if you like Big Robots and Campy Pastels.

This was one of the weirdest things I have ever watched.

I do like me some Big Robots tho. And Big Robots with Big Swords.
10/10 will probably watch again some day.

After seeing a few snippets at my sister's house, I am now watching The Nanny for the first time. My housemate and gf are both very excited for this.
My housemate was talking to their mum about schitts creek, and when I looked up they told their mum I was watching the nanny for the first time.

Removing the sump pan in the MR2. Removing the exhaust had to happen first!! It's gonna be one messy job, already been three grease filled hours.

I am one with the grease.

I work as a bartender/floor staff, right? I swear I'm the only one of my colleagues who cares more about my damn self than these customers 😅
Not in a derogatory way, just that I'm not going to cause myself undue suffering to get someone's drink ten seconds quicker. I'm going to take ten to hydrate.

Since the move to Ballarat, we haven't had much time to go down and work on the MR2.

Got it into Ballarat the other day, so it's now in our garage again!

Got under it today to check an oil seepage issue, and I managed to diagnose the issue!

It's really nice to see my knowledge and confidence+

The train station vending machines are using this vendswift system. It doesn't seem to accept google pay. And when I tried to do the other way of making a goddamn account, that didn't work either!!! It seems to be a security issue, as in google won't share my data, but I just want a vanilla coke 😭

"I want to do nothing" says the 3yo, before curling up facedown on the floor. I leave her be for barely a moment and then I hear snoring 🤣

Attempts to awaken her are met with "I don't want toooooo" with all the petulance her tiny 3yo body can muster 😅 adorable, but 5pm naps aren't ideal 🤣

I love my niece but my god three year olds are annoying 🤣
May 21, 2025 at 4:21 AM
3 year olds are incredible.

My mum earlier today said to my niece: "could you rub grandpa's back to help him feel better?"
Niece: "no. You can do it."

It was so freaking deadpan 🤣 she's utterly hilarious (also my mum totally deserved it lol)

Asked my parents if they remember my first words.
Dad was convinced I said dada first, and my mother was very adamant I definitely did not, but did not have an alternative.

I also apparently said "target", "tree", and "that", early on, as well as my sister's name.

Nearly midnight in the lobby of a hotel full of Pokemon judges that have to be up at 6:

Four are playing magic the gathering. One is watching intently and half judging. Three are talking intensely about star wars.

I'm crocheting off to the side watching. It's so nerdy.

It ma BIRFDAYYYYYYYYY. We're going to the zoo and I am so excited!!!!

The almost frikken flashback I had at seeing the Skype logo on my screen due to the announcements of it being shut down.

Yeesh. Being a teen with completely unfiltered internet access over a decade ago was A Time.

Skype was somewhere I spent A Lot of time. Some of it good.

And she's built!

My Tishana, Voice of Thunder deck is the first deck I built when I started playing, and she's very much my pet deck.

I love her, and I'm glad I could give her a facelift!!
May 6, 2025 at 11:22 AM
- Rebuilds mtg deck from ground up
- I'm so close, 82 cards, just 17 to go!!
- ......I forgot lands.
- I now have to remove about 20 cards 😭

I thought I was doing so well

The ADHD really has been in GO GO GO mode today, I've been sorting the endless collection of random cards in random bundle boxes. These are all commons and uncommons. It's a very tiny part of the collection, but it's a good start!!

The autism also enjoys the sorty sorty sort.
May 5, 2025 at 10:36 AM
5 tasks on my to do list DONE before midday.

Sometimes the ADHD goes YOU CAN DO THE THINGS ALL AT ONCE NOW.

Now is time for cake for breakfast 😌 I deserve it.

(I believe in you, and you can do the thing!)

Burnt a brake light out on the Lexus last night. No biggie, easy fix.

Go to Supercheap, get new lights. Install lights.

....no light.

Check the bulb that was still working in both sides. The sockets are working.

Check the new lights against the old one again.

Ah. Wrong contacts.

Driving is fucking difficult. It's been ten years since I got my learners permit, and I'm going to have to extend it.

Learning to drive is expensive. I'm lucky enough to have a partner who is willing to let me drive her car and teach me. But it's fucking hard.

Stressful. Terrifying.

I can't find any black markers/fine liners. Therefore I can't practice inking my little drawings.

*Big, dramatic, sigh* I suppose I must take a trip somewhere to *sigh* buy markers....oh noo
...I gotta buy markers...and maybe new pencils...and a new sketchbook, and I should get a good eraser too..
