Just one quick bitch, part two

[Fun With Matches]

I really wasn't sure where to put this, but I deleted my friend who I hardly spoke to on FB, the one who introduced me to Chris. He hadn't done anything wrong especially, we hardly spoke anyway.  And lately he's not exactly laid back, and I've a feeling sooner or later he'll act morally superior to me and crap like that, cos that's how his posts are sounding these days. Politics and lots of news articles about how bad our government is behaving. Not that I disagree, but why bother continually bringing up problems when you don't want to solve any of them??!! I'm not judging him for that alone, just people like that in general, I tend to rub up the wrong way. They tend to dislike me.

I dunno, I feel it was for the best. It's not something I usually do. He kinda started acting funny with me ever since he introduced me to Chris anyway.

Another red flag was when he told me he preferred emotionally independent girlfriends. ARRRRRRGGHHHHHH.

TLDR: I feel bad for deleting someone even though we were growing apart.

My mum is stuck in Brisbane and can't get home due to flooding. Ordinarily she could just take the inland route via the New England Hwy, but she has to detour via Lismore to pick up a friend.

And for some odd reason my aunt left half a dozen messages on her answering machine at home. I only listened to the first few seconds of each one but you could tell one message after the next she was getting more inpatient and angry with mum for not being there and returning her calls. The weird part is mum was up north in Bundaberg staying at nans literally in the same suburb as my aunt AND MY AUNT KNEW THIS!!

Major league bitch-I bought a sheet of 0.5mm thick graphite foil lately, so I can exfoliate it into layers of a few atoms to single atom thick layers. This material is called graphene, and it has some interesting electrical properties.

The stuff I bought was advertized as being 'supercapacitor grade' fit for preparing supercapacitor dielelectrics yet when I opened up my package, I found that the person had just stuffed my thin graphite foil into an envelope and written the addresses on it. Now its got deep gouges in it on each side, so deep that I can read the addresses as written on the paper of the envelope. In other words, it is  utterly useless to me now. Something that badly damaged suitable for uses that require monolayers a single atom thick? you must be fucking joking. They will be getting first an email offering the chance to remedy it. Then if they do not, if they refuse to do so they will get some really shite feedback.

And for some reason the chlorine feed to my tube of iodine seems to be passing rather slowly. More slowly than it should do considering its being driven as a pressurized system via a tank of argon gas sweeping the Cl2 out of the chlorine gas generator as its formed and through first the drying agent and then through the iodine to form iodine monochloride.

Dodgy internet/TV/phone connection.  Will raise hell tomorrow with the provider.

Find the address of the CEO, and stuff a bag of frozen shrimp, sliced open in plenty places near the top end, ram some of these little prezzies up his drainpipes and superglue them in there. He really won't thank you for it any time soon. Or ever, come to think of it.

Results aren't instant (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, it gives you time to get away and sit back and pour yourself a stiff drink whilst you leave them to await the inevitable virulent stench.

Nah, just a phone call.  The tech will be at the house between 8:30 and 12:30 tomorrow.  My own fault was in procrastinating about the problem rather than addressing it when it first started a month ago.

Damn fear and thinking I'm not worth it.

  I know that feeling.  It's a great moment when I can stand up for myself as if I matter.

Need to iron a ton of stuff so that I can photograph and list it.

I only time I iron anymore is when there's money involved in it.
