Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
Fridge is here! Just as red as promised😁
I just want to be loaded. Or at least more well off.
I’d move somewhere else of my choice, nicer area, maybe even with an Aldi really close by. Have a real vegetable garden (hiring help if needed) and share the produce with other people. A bottom mount fridge freezer for meal prep. A big catio and/or catproofing so Miss Moo can sunbathe and play in grass without absconding.
A garage or shed to paint in and enough privacy to play music/sing/learn an instrument if I chose. A fire pit and a zone with times where it’s allowed.
Get less stressed and work on my health.
Above all I’d just like to afford to move out of this neighbourhood and not be squeezed in with other people. I just want to live in peace and be left the fuck alone.
My idea of “making it” is being able to live somewhere where you have choice of train, bus and tram.
But in general I agree, I’d like to be able to live with my partner instead of living at home with my mum. I mean I never really had a plan past 18 except a general idea (depression sucks) but I hate being 28 and living at home. While I’m happy that she didn’t kick me out once I turned 18 but still.
WELL, after a very hectic morning and cutting it very fine, I’ve managed to do 90% of what I needed to (no time to grab fresh bread from Woodfrog, sorry mum - and no time to mop the floors)
Got to bag drop with 20 minutes to spare, blessed with no traffic, weight all good, waiting for takeoff. I know I’ve been craving sun and warmth but it’s like 32 feels like 36 and 85% humidity over there ahahahahaha fuck me I’ll be living in air-conditioning most likely 🥵
About to takeoff, I’ll hopefully be spamming the DT a bit less and trying to have a life while I’m away - and stuffing myself stupid with food.
I’m going to test drive an Outback Touring XT tomorrow to see if I like it.
I am genuinely sad to think about giving up my purple car. We’ve been through a lot together and I just realised it was with me through my entire 30’s. It has seen friends and lovers come and go. It has seen highways, backroads, mountains, ocean roads, ferries, muddy trails, snow, sun and everything in between. It was there for the best times and the worst times. It has been laughed in, cried in, sung in, dined in, and has sat with me during countless moments of quiet contemplation. Most of all it has never once let me down but sadly I think it’s time for some other lucky person to enjoy it.
Bathe in its magnificence.
Everyone I know who has owned an Outback (or any Subaru) swears by them. I’ve seen some of them get to some pretty insane places as well, mate followed me onto the beach in NSW once. I think there was someone over on one of the 4x4 subreddits that had thrown a lift kit and some A/T’s on theirs and it looked wild.
First red one!
I remember with my ex a few moons ago giving her a bunch of these and she was dissapointed I didn’t buy them. She then went on to say ‘jeez they last a lot longer than the florist ones’. Like no shit. I’m still bitter about that.
