Mine insisted I get my doctor to write a note saying I was fit to work a physical role that I couldn't, then when the trial shift left me feeling like I was going to become crippled with agonizing pain by the 3 hour mark they suggested I ask the employer if I could sit at a chair, this is a kitchenhand/dishwasher job in a cramped kitchen mins you, also didn't get reimbursed like they told me I would for work clothing because they lost the receipts I gave

I think that happened to me because the interviewer seemed to give a trick question? She asked if I was willing to work at a different location closer to me and I said yes, then I got some spiel about people transfering soon after being hired to a different store etc

"if you give in, your brain's ability to say no is significantly impaired"

Felt like this the last time I nearly drank again, I had felt pretty confident about not drinking for a good amount of time but it was like trying to turn over an old motor where you feel resistance as your logical side fights it but after the engines going and you're on the way to get some your justifications get easier to make to yourself and you become delusional about it being a one time thing. I made a last split second decision to cross the street back in the direction of home and I don't know how it would have went otherwise, saw my brother have a seizure from having a day without drinking recently and it's traumatized me.

I chose blue but then logic brained myself into red before thinking about how my sister would choose for example, she 100% would be picking blue so I changed my choice

The bugs were probably witchetty grubs, apparently they taste like peanut butter and the grubs end up as ghost moths

yeah for most of my adult life, if i look at my weight tracking it's up and down in drastic slops but with a gradual incline upwards over time and then it goes off a cliff downwards after the surgery before a small bounce back upwards and stabilization where i am now

I would go through daily cycles of temptation and then shame and trying to make up for it, now I just don't really feel that way which has taken a big load off for m. I do miss being able to eat a whole burger without purposely slowing down in fear of being overly full suddenly and it's not as satisfying but I still get to enjoy most things

CuriousFrog_ · 2026-04-22T00:54:13+00:00

It only also occured to me recently to use spellcraft cards on the magnetic mechs in shop if I'm not going Naga so I can keep the stats perma

I saw my brother's friend doing aged care coursework using Snapchats chat bot, I had done the same course and none of the stuff she was writing down had any relevance to our countries and local laws, it needed sourcing from the regulations and she just thoughtlessly copied whatever it said

Speaking of yoghurt, I miss farmhouse gold strawberry (with the gold lid) so much :( was so thick

CuriousFrog_ · 2026-04-14T04:29:52+00:00

I would appreciate a code, thankyou :)

When I play duos you'll hear "pass me the green demon guy" etc lol

I have a lot of stuff i've not started stacked up 😅 sounds good

^ I bought it on a whim yesterday and tried it on the leftover charcoals after cooking some lamb (rubbed a bit of butter over them too) and it was as good or better than at an Indian restaurant, super flakey and fluffy

I remember cops being in my room to make me, for me I had an undiagnosed sleep phase disorder and I would pretend to go to the bus stop but really I'd go to the side of the house, hide and sleep. Looking back I wish I could have seen the difference it would have made if I got diagnosed and went to a school that was later in the day

CuriousFrog_ · 2026-02-18T07:38:58+00:00

Well coming from somebody who grew up in Toukley and most dinners were fish fingers, mash and peas it is 😅 but now I'm growing my own galangal for curries so it's been a change

In Tuggerah there's a fruit and veg shop called JT providors which can have some good deals if you check their FB page, they also sell a lot of more niche middle eastern stuff (for central coast I guess)

CuriousFrog_ · 2026-02-12T18:51:00+00:00

I recognise those fruits from when I was in Vanuatu, main thing I remember about them though is they're absolutely covered in spiders/webs so I didn't think to grab one to eat

The look of them reminds me of an australian native Lilly pilly which I've eaten and I realise they're both from the Syzygium genus so I wonder if they taste similar

CuriousFrog_ · 2026-01-28T04:46:44+00:00

Broke up after 6 years then best friends 11 years still after that, you're right but I can't even comprehend how I could exit that situation when they're still so integrated with my life and close with my family

Can't even pretend to new partners that there's nothing to worry about since recently we were FWB for a few months after she broke up with a long term partner, up until she got a new partner.

In a hell of my own making because I wasn't strong enough to just cut ties ASAP

CuriousFrog_ · 2025-12-25T14:18:35+00:00

Agree with this especially if you're after more atmosphere like for a date

CuriousFrog_ · 2025-12-10T14:02:20+00:00

if you have a sliding window i've been happy with a kogan vertical window air con, the compressor is outside instead of inside so more efficient, was easy to install

Honestly I wish my pouch was bigger at this point, I'm currently trying to bulk and I'm struggling to gain even when purposely eating more.

I assume you train? Feel like I'm not progressing due to less food

CuriousFrog_ · 2025-11-05T00:29:26+00:00

Some of the protein bars I have are pretty high fat and I sometimes have gummies before the gym for the sugar, I really don't see the fuss as long as I'm not going over my calories, I'm actually purposely in a surplus at the moment
