Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
So I know I always call him Mr. Omoikiri but that’s just for ease because he’s my human and he has been for a long time and we always knew we were stuck with each other for forever. But I guess he really is (soon to be) mr. Omoikiri now
spoiler
Congratulations 🎉 After the vanilla slice incident he did owe you big time though.
He was on thin ice after that
hah I’d forgotten about that.
Maybe he’s making up for it by proposing.
To Mr and Mrs Omoikiri! 🥂
Congrats! That is a lovely ring
Shiny!
Omg congratulations!
oooh congrats!
Congrats!
That’s a nice ring there too.
Hope you’re both very happy!
I was always against the idea of diamonds, but mr Omoikiri thinks we’d best have something we can hawk in case the internet goes down and/or we have a zombie apocalypse and everything goes to shit.
aww, congratulations to you both.
Congratulations to you both 🎉🎉
Congratulations! So happy for you!
Congratulations 🎉🎉 exciting news!
Congrats to you both. Looks like serious conversation turned out to be super cereal! 💍
Congratulations! This is so lovely ❤️
Congratulations!!! What a lovely ring!
Congrats!🥂
FUCK YEAH! Oh that’s bloody awesome! Congratulations!
(Also spoilers work on the Jebora app that’s great!)
Yay, congratulations!
What’s the appropriate abbreviation? 婚おめ!!! You are both such a lovely couple. All the best for the road ahead.
Thank youuu! We were just saying how dumb and formal 婚約者 sounds actually. Now he’s going around calling me マイ婚約者 like a dummy.
CONGRATS!!
Congrats to both of you.
🖤🖤🖤
Yay! Congrats, nice nails too!
This is the biggest compliment of them all. I always read ‘ladies, make sure you have a manicure in case you get proposed to’ and when I was trying to take a photo of it this morning I thought ‘damn. I really should take better care of my nails/had a manicure’
Nice. Imperfections are what makes us human anyway. All the very best for your future wedded bliss.
CONGRATULATIONS!
Also, nice ring.💜 💜 💜
Congrats!
The changes I have been making to diet, exercise & no alcohol have been doing me good. In the past I was constantly running out of sick leave, now I have just passed one year without taking a single day. I now understand how people can end up with such high leave balances.
In my last 7 years of working, I’ve probably taken a grand total of 7 sick days.
So you fucked yourself out of 63 days of earned leave.
You have ten days a year. Use them. You’re not gonna win a Best At Working award
Yup, will do from now on.
Good lad.
GOLD!
Just returned from hospital. Honestly thought I was having a heart attack last night. So thankful to be back home with my kids again. I think I’ll keep them home from school today and spend the day with them.
Oooh goodness, glad you’re alright. We’ve had those kinds of scares in this household before, important to get it properly checked out.
My uncle and cousin (from 2 different families – my paternal uncle via marriage and my maternal cousin) both had heart attacks and it’s not fun. They’re also both like active-ish, I know my uncle looks like a long bean, he’s a massive cyclist. So doesn’t matter what active level you are tbh. But I’m glad to hear you’re okay, and yes spend time with your kids! Because you never know when you don’t see them again.
Dodgy property developers on Four Corners tonight. I have laid in a supply of popcorn. Should be fun.
Some days the HR office has a revolving door and it’s a non-stop day of people stepping in. No time for a break. Barely time for hydration and bathroom.
Tomorrow I’m cheering up my manager and I by getting us out of the office to buy some more spicy nuts in our lunch break.
We’ll get to make jokes about spicy nuts, get out of the office, and get some tasty snacks.
I see this as a win.
Nothing ever goes wrong buttering someone up with spicy nuts.
And we score at least a day of innuendos of hot nuts and the lines.
I live for moments like these
That sounds like a lovely plan.
Oh the man is not well. This is about the 4th cold he’s ever had in the 28 years that I’ve known him. I’m keeping busy prepping because if I go down too the kid will have to look after us and she only knows how to cook 2 minute noodles and scrambled eggs. I did however show her how to use the airfryer. Please pray for us.
Oh no, how bad is it?
Plenty of bedrest and fluids and if you want you can try some cold and flu tablets or Armaforce.
You can’t get sick, not with the Ashes coming up on Wednesday night!
Just your common cold. I’m keeping him drugged so he won’t be any trouble at all.
Given how much you cook for your fam just drop a stack of recipes on the kitchen bench and say it’s time you stepped up kiddo.
Oh she’d do it for sure.
Oh noooo fingers and toes crossed for you. Hope you managed to stay away from the germs 🤞🤞🤞
Thank you.
Bit the bullet and got a med cert through to Wednesday. I still have some unavoidable work things but this will significantly help reduce the timesheet anxiety
Very nice, I hope you get some well deserved rest!
You just gotta do what you can do (he says knowing that he’s taking a mental health day tomorrow following my psych session in the morning). Here’s hoping you’re able to get some rest and recovery in over the next couple of days.
I don’t think I’ll get too much today (morning was a writeoff but I’m finally sat in front of the puter to clear the most urgent things so that I can fully switch off the next two days). I really just want to stare into space for a couple of days without that nagging guilt
Zoo trip was achieved. Feet are sore. I walked there and most the way back. 🤨
I went on a mini African safari by seeking out all the African animals. Except the gorillas, I feel too ashamed to look at gorilla people that are effectively sentient caged slaves.
The baboons did their baboon stuff, lazing on warm rocks in the sun, grooming, wanking, teasing each other, shoving their bum against the glass windows to give spectators an intimate view. The little bastards would run off laughing.
Lemurs are actually marsupilamis . I always knew this and seeing their hanging nests confirmed it.
Giraffes were sweet. The lions were sleeping in the sun. They have cute tufts of fur under their arms.
Bin chickens, native to Northern Victoria, have taken residence en masse in the crowns of tall palm trees, making messes, skwarking and shredding the vegetation.
Sounds like a splendid day.
Hope the sun came out for you all day. By afternoon it was clear skies and the sun was out.
Was there a lot of people at the zoo?
glorious day, few people
Anyone travelling to the city on the Mernda line is in for an interesting trip.
Our train was stopped at Reservoir, and is not connecting to the city.
Some kind of point failure in the line ahead.
Fun times.
I’m very early to Lizzo but my anxiety is soothed because I’m here and in the correct seat.
Hope you have a great concert.
When it begins you’re fully going to enjoy yourself and forget about everything else.
Have a great time. 😊
Better to be early than late. Hope the show is awesome!
It was amazing, worth being there early for! Lol
Have an amazing time!! I’m meant to be there but had to give up my ticket because I’m sick. I’d be more pissed at my body, but I saw her on Friday in Perth. Enjoy every moment, she’s AMAAAAAZING!!!
SHE WAS AMAZING!! I’m going to her show again tomorrow but kind of wish I had a GA ticket lol
Getting my ass kicked by the flu/rsv/whatever else nasty ass virus is getting around at the moment. Have the whole week off and need to actually proper rest. Hopefully I’ll be doing a lot of bored shit posting this week.
one of us one of us
Some nasty ones going round this year. Hopefully you feel better soon!
Thanks! This is the third time I’ve been sick this year and it’s gotten progressively worse each time! Am forcing myself to actually rest this time, normally I keep going and hope for the best.
Go Botbot Go botbot Go botbot Go! 💃
Good work
Good bot. 💗
Ugh, I need to do something about my weight, wearing office clothes again has me acutely aware of just how much I’ve gained in the last few years. Just feels so out of my control due to working shift work and often doing shifts up to 12hrs long, I just work, sleep, and eat because I’m miserable about it all.
It’s a bloody beautiful day, I’m going to the zoo.
I’m going to the zoo zoo zoo
How about you you you
You can come too too too
I’m going to the zoo zoo zooI’d don’t know where that came from but have a good time anyway.
I’m going on a mini African safari 😀
In the jungle, the mighty jungle the lion sleeps tonight 🦁
That vaguely reminds me of “Welcome to the Zoo” from the interactive kids game “Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo”.
Say hi to the lemurs for me
Lucky duck… I’ve got to go walk around a Kmart for 3 hours (I hate shopping, in case you couldn’t guess)
New Justified series starting on Wednesday. I am unbelievably excited.
Won’t be the same with Boyd
I think it will be pretty good. The book it’s based on is excellent.
I’ll confess and admit I have not any of the Raylan Givens books. They worth a read?
Okay, they’re Elmore Leonard books…now I have to read them
Oh yes, Elmore Leonard is amazing. Though I think all the Givens books were made into episodes on Justified.
Cool.
