Going on another ride with the bicycle users group today. My plan is to get to the meeting place early so the boys can have a bit of out of pram time before we head off

Goodness me. Fell asleep early and only woke up once. Been awhile since Iโ€™ve been able to sleep so soundly.

I couldn't get to sleep last night. Melatonin was no help. I was so tired I couldn't open my eyes, but I just couldn't sleep.

Then when I did get to sleep, I had another bad dream. This one didn't involve death like the last few, but I got really angry in my dream and broke everything in my path and hurt a lot of people. I hate those kinds of dreams, because they feel so realistic while I'm in them and then about half way through the dream I realise I've mega screwed up and then end up dealing with the fallout while I'm still dreaming. And then after I wake up it's a combination of relief that I'm not rotting away in a dingey jail cell somewhere, but also terrifying because it makes me wonder if I am actually capable of hurting people irl

And then after I woke up I realised I'd slept in until 1pm. But in my defence, the watch tells me I was tossing and turning until 5:30

Yep. Like Goonsey said it is normal but that doesn't mean it's nice. My brain dredges up all sorts of stuff when I sleep. Over the years I have kinda learned to deal with it and even appreciate it a bit - It's my brain processing all the stuff and filing it where it needs to go.

One thing I find really helpful is to just lay there for a bit when I wake up, with my eyes closed think about what I am feeling inside (is there somewhere hurting? Stressed?) and to think back on what I dreamt. Kinda say thanks brain for processing and remind myself it was a dream and I am safe now. And to then think about where I am in details - what do the sheets feel like, what can I hear, that sort of thing. Just breathe in that in between space and basically put down the night stuff so I can go into the day clean. Or at worst, cut myself some slack because it was a rough night.

Everyone has their own thing - just sharing my little process in case it helps.

So how long is a warranty on something like headphones? I need to go to jb hifi to return some but it's been almost a year or a bit longer.

Can't seem to find the info anywhere. I'm probably googling the wrong thing.

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Youโ€™re probably good within a year as long as they didnโ€™t cost like 10 bucks or something.

Warranty length is usually on a slip of paper with the headphones.

Also you have the Australian consumer law to rely on as a backup that can not be overruled.

Yummy bacon butty please. And coffee (decaf cos late).

[-] Baku@aussie.zone 3 points 1 month ago

I remember when HJs brought out their bacon chip cheesy butty burger thing. I tried one and thought it wasn't awful, and they were also only going for a buck, so I suggested to someone at my last place that they grab one

We went up to the counter and I said "can I just grab, uhh, a chicken Royale please" and she said "oh can I try one of those bacon bums please"

That was a funny but moderately embarrassing day

Portuguese-style sardines don't taste any different to any other sardines in oil. There, bang, I said it.
