Not a chance.

I briefly considered moving to the area many years ago, there were a lot of government incentives to attract skilled trades, and I'm an electrician. Seemed like a good deal, until I got a look at the never ending list of godawful bugs you people have that all seem intent on gruesome death.

Please, the bugs are the least of our problems here. The only thing you really have to worry about killing you is the cost of living

...I'll see myself out.

Seriously though, it's a pretty safe country.

EDIT: though this is what people think the country is like:

The cost of living? I'm in Los Angeles county LOL. You can't rent a backyard shed here for under 2K

Ok, so it's 14:15. I'm finished with my exercise sheets. I slept about 3 hours during the day, yesterday. I didn't sleep the night to yesterday. Why am I not feeling tired right now?

You done fucked up your sleep schedule. Fitting for the end of the second semester.

Garand isn't a noob either, but he was once and he just immersed himself in the post.

I ground the red pill up and snorted that motherfucker. Which may help explain my insomnia come to think of it...

Apparently if I stay in my room all day writing boring uni assignments, my armpits smell of onions and garlic. I had a shower at about 1300, stop judging me!

I'm going to have an interesting night tonight. First night back after two nights off due to medical issues, then - in the morning, after I get home from work - I have to go in for a CT scan at the hospital.

Don't get too happy Eric, it's fucking wet and horrible here at the moment! Trees down, storms errywhere, and a prime minister that denies there's anything wrong with the weather!

Method of Madness · « **Reply #61 on:** 08 Jul 2014, 17:55 »

Well, hopefully the weather is better in 2016 or at least there's a PM willing to DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

I don't often stay up too late myself, but I do like to take walks at night while listening to music. I'm probably going to do that soon here once my Spanish rice is done cooking.

Couldn't sleep again. Down at the Bicycle playin poker. Who needs a retirement fund anyway.

Edit; made myself leave at 300 up, rules is rules. One of those rare mellow tables where I would have preferred to play until dawn tho.

Gods damn it, I should've been asleep hours ago. Working another eleven hours tomorrow (technically today), I have to wake up in five hours or so.

Good morning. Well, it used to be 6 am until a few minutes ago, so that explains it, I guess.

Two nights in a row of poker til dawn. Between the cheap chairs and the house coffee I feel like a monkey punched me in the kidneys.

The worst thing about working third shift is insomnia.

At least I managed some productive crap while I was up tonight. Got a replacement pump ordered for the spa, can't wait to get that back online. It's Jacuzzi weather for sure. Tacked a couple thousand words onto a novel in progress.

So I tried to sleep like a normal person last night, but the old lady was splorfed all over the bed, along with the bigger dog. Tried the couch, no joy. Ended up playing the summers slowest night of cards, five hours at the table for less than 200.

Then I get home this morning and she tells me "I didn't even notice you left last night!", yeah, cuz you were busy imitating Ayers rock, in the center of the bed. rassafrassa.

Loki · « **Reply #87 on:** 03 Aug 2014, 19:24 »

True that.
I had a really nice night chatting in a café with a friend who had noticed me being bummed out about stuff. So we talked about what bummed me out, ethics, sense of life, our student paper and jewellery.
Café closed at 4, so I took a taxi home.
Now my sleep schedule is gonna be FUBAR for a few days, I guess.
Totally worth it.
