I have a trolley that is one of those wire rack shelving dealies. I am trying to put a new top on. The new top will screw into four holes on the top of the unit. I cannot get these fucking cunts to line up, no matter how many times I template. I am enraged.

So I received a response from the bus company about the other night when the bus left without me. Apparently the bus driver was on break which is why he was parked past the bus stop. Apparently he checked his mirrors before he left but didn't see me.
The whole situation was fucking confusing. There were 2 buses parked after the bus stop: 1 was completely turned off with nobody inside, the other had a driver marked inside but was marked as not in service. A bus turned around the corner and I thought that was mine, but it was marked special and didn't stop. Then after it passed, the not in service bus changed its desto to my route and left without me. Something like this:
Also, the complaint was apparently filed under "failure to collect", and the email they sent me includes a link to an extranet page with guidance on how to respond to such complaints, but unfortunately PTVs IT department knows how to secure internal documents. This makes me sad, as someone who likes to read internal documents though. Interestingly they don't use a username and password, they just block unauthorised IP addresses from accessing the page at all through CloudFlare. beta.ptv.vic.gov.au does the same, which I only know because for some reason, some of their public facing links link to the beta page, which obviously doesn't work
I was rooting around in the cupboard and came across these.
I have no idea what they are used for. Obviously one is a jug, one a glass and the other lid/saucer. I tried google search photo thing but they come up separately. What are they? Who gave them to me? Why are they a set? It's got me stumped.
beautiful!
I'll have to find a purpose for it now.
Cream and sugar set? With the saucer to catch drips under the cream pourer?
Man, that Rikodeine really throws a brick at your brain and knocks you out but not in a good way... I've only taken medication with codeine one other time in my life (panadeine forte after a wisdom tooth extraction) - and I hated how woozy and half-conscious it made me. Same with this. Where's the euphoria?? Ugh. It did help me stop coughing all night but I've been straight up unable to get out of bed for hours. I guess that's what I needed, but it feels like crap.
It's so perfect outside, I want to go for a walk and soak up the sun on a nice patch of grass, but I feel too weak to right now. Yet staying in bed all day will feel gross too. I don't feel like watching anything either. ...maybe I'll sit at the entrance to my balcony for a bit and just do nothing. What a crazy idea!
