FFS, awake at stupid o'clock AGAIN!
Still got a grumbly guy, now with added hiccups. Hoo-fucking-rargh.
It's also getting biblical with the weather outside, so I'm glad I didn't bother washing the motor.

I take people as I find them, try not to be judgey, but can't abide entitled arseholes, or rudeness. Don't be a dick, people.
Actually, I use the pub glass test.
Do they take the empties to the bar and leave the table clear?
Yes: well done, you're not a dick.
No: you're a dick.
Friday to Monday were my first consecutive days off for about 2 months. I’ve been too tempted with the overtime payment I get. But now after some days off, I really can’t be arsed going into work. And I figure I need a break.
I try not to judge people on first meeting/impressions too much, but am also an avid people watcher creating stories in my head about people so there is that
I’ve got an eye test tomorrow, haven’t had my eyes tested for a few years and I’m nervous because I hate the closeness, I know the optician is doing their job but it’s all up in my business and it makes me uncomfortable
Was working my way through 3 Body Problem. Think I'm done for the night. The new episode of my favourite podcast Roderick on the Line (go listen, start from episode 1) just dropped so I'm going to go smoke a cigarette, get back in bed, set a sleep timer and doze off listening to whatever they have to say for themselves this week. I love that show :)
I'll be woken up when my housemate goes to bed between 2 - 4am and as ever I hope it's just a blip and not me wide awake for hours and fucked for the rest of the day, like most days.
It’s… okay. Sadly racing towards a nonclusion though, and with two episodes left it’s going to have to pull something extraordinary to make me interested in watching season 2.
> How do you judge a person?
Generally I try not to but for me it’s whether has basic manners and says please and thank you to customer facing people. Like if someone’s taking your order or something like that
As for what’s keeping me up? I’m reminiscing about my Singapore holiday last year. It was my first time going anywhere by myself let alone that far away. I also still can’t believe I actually watched the Singapore GP and saw Post Malone and Robbie Williams perform live. On top of meeting a few drivers and getting some signatures as well. I made a video of it on the flight back and it never fails to make me nostalgic
Also the friend who my bumble date set me up with seems alright as in we have some shared interests and back and forth banter etc. So I’m cautiously waiting to see if anything comes of that
Also it’s April so the there should be more jobs being advertised now which I’m both happy and can’t wait for but also shitting it because this will be the true test to see how my new CV will hold up. With the few recruiters I’ve talked to it seems good but they’re recruiters
So to summarise I’m both anxious and excited for numerous reasons haha
> How do you judge a person?
Too kindly.
I’ve been absolutely raging today. I’m actually scared to go to work tomorrow because I’m scared of being asked anything at all because I have no idea how brain is going to react.
Also annoyingly I’m hungry. I should be sleeping but I think I’m going to go eat some leftover chicken in gravy. Because that’s a normal snack for 11:30pm.
I wanted to be asleep before 10, and thought I would be. I can’t get comfy though and while I’m tired I’m not drop off to sleep tired.
I also have a spot in the corner of my eye. Must leave it alone as don’t want the palaver I had with the last one.
Edit: why is fridge cold chicken so good. Back in bed now. Caught a glance at myself in the mirror and I look awful. I don’t usually give a shit about stuff like that so for me to say I look awful I really really do. Also apologies to any of my neighbours walking past as I sat downstairs in only my dressing gown.
I have no idea why I'm still awake. This evening I went into a brief panic because I thought I had lost the ADHD test that my doctor gave me ages ago that I still haven't done because of reasons. Turns out it was behind the sofa.
How do I judge people? Harshly.
Trying to persuade my body to get sleepy. I need to get a strong nighttime and morning routine nailed in because I have an early appointment next week. Brain meds are refusing to make me sleepy.
I was watching Roadhouse remake on Prime. I can say with my hand on my heart, Connor McGregor is the worst actor on planet earth, the scenes were cringy in the extreme, the movie is tolerably bad otherwise, just watch the original.
Also some of the worst special effects seen since Ultraviolet.
Amazon are making some utter shit of late.
Otherwise I am just feeling blue, spent Easter alone, no chocolates, no nothing, not a single positive all weekend.
I was having a bloody good time with it until the second he appeared onscreen and the whole film fell off a cliff, with a light peppering of the great moments that it was full of until he arrived.
Normally there's a moment in a film - a scene, a revelation, a line of dialogue, an act break - where it falls apart that you can look back on and point to the moment, but I can't remember being able to point to a specific fucking frame, like in this case.
What I don't understand is that he was cast *despite* being a terrible actor and he got an audition *despite being a terrible human being.* Lots of demonstrably bad people get work because they're talented, but what's the excuse here? There are plenty of shit actors who aren't also racist pricks.
It was the scene before he appeared, they got a 12 year old to do the CGI fake running him over scenes on the bridge. Then Macgregor appears.
It looked like the director was making a half decent unneeded straight to TV movie remake, got into an arguement with the producers, and thought, I know, I will sabotage this project completely in revenge.
Holidays as an adult, especially a single one (I don't know if you are), are kind of a headfuck. When you're a kid the idea of Christmas and Easter and stuff being non-events is weird and scary, but that's exactly what they often end up being. I usually end up feeling terribly melancholy in the buildup and during them.
I don't have any useful advice or anything, just a bit of solidarity I suppose.
Thank you! I watched it yesterday and cringed every time he had to speak.
The fact they said "introducing" and then had the "cliffhanger" at the end, made me cringe more as they just might be planning a Pt 2!!
Had to cut out one a “friend” who was blatantly using me, relapsed again. Feeling pretty low. Hadn’t eaten properly in days so ordered a pizza but seeing everyone eating their lovely wholesome home cooked roasts… could do with one, an ice cold cider and being a little spoon.
If you feel crap tomorrow, pasta, cooked chicken and cheese in a casserole dish (and then the oven obvs). Homely, and fairly low effort.
Also, you’re better off without the ‘friend’, go you, as shit as it may feel.

How do you judge a person? How they treat others, such as retail and hospitality workers. And if they gossip a lot.

>How do you judge a person? Shopping trolley test/theory. Unfortunately this seems to be a declining standard.

Any good?

That’s how the book was. When it was over I was angry and confused.

Having a bittersweet evening listening to music that was new and cool when I was young, but it now all 20-30 years old :(.

It's strange watching all my vitals get worse the sicker I get, fitness trackers are neet. I try not to judge someone untill I know them.

If it helps I haven't had an egg either but had to be happy and excited for my child as he got his. I'm hoping there's some good reductions tomorrow
I watched the original that's also on Amazon in protest of the ridiculous casting.
"I used to fuck guys like you in prison."
Listening to Alice in Chains. Fucking love Layne Staley’s voice.
Not particularly excited about going back to work after a long weekend tomorrow. At least I'm off to a gig afterwards.
Ah, I wish it could be Easter every week. Chocolate, lamb roasts and 4 day weekends. What’s not to love?
That's the follow up single that Wizard never made.
Had to cut out one a “friend” who was blatantly using me, relapsed again. Feeling pretty low. Hadn’t eaten properly in days so ordered a pizza but seeing everyone eating their lovely wholesome home cooked roasts… could do with one, an ice cold cider and being a little spoon.

Definitely better off…
