The plumber tells me he needs to dig a trench to put a second toilet in and it'll be nearly a grands worth of labour but it's not that much work if I want to do it myself and I start shadow boxing immediately

well why not posted:

like i said a few months ago, just dig one hole sideways

Nah, rent a trencher for a day, digging a trench sucks anus and noone should have to do it. Doubly so if the ground has any rocks at all.

Here's what I got done today. I reckon I'm still 10cm from the septic line but I'm just widening it a bit while I've got some some light and I'll do the trowel probing trying to find the pipe tomorrow and then I just need a metre of that pipe exposed

That would require me to be dumb enough to forget about the hole and the big red bucket I out over it to protect my dog so yeah give it 24 hours

Think I've done myself a mischief bogoons

bloke in the flat downstairs had a leak back in feb. i hadnt met the guy but due to the builders needing access to my balcony to fix the leak we got chatting. seemed decent enough of a bloke. he let me in to the car park one time when I forgot my garage swipe tag. repaid the favor with a foil, as is the way (and he mentioned he smoked weed previously)

last friday he asks me if Im home. I was out so I say no. Wanted to buy a stick so I told him when I would be home, said I heard him playing COD and we should have a game. Give him some weed the next day and play some COD. fine.

to cut to the meat of it, I get the impression he has lost his job and hes lying about actually being on LSL. doesnt quite check out because he got a new job in the past 6mo or so (I noticed he got a company car) and his story changed from LSL to 'yeah they told me they needed the ute back because i was off leave for so long, so asked me to resign and they will re-hire me when I want to come back.' I asked if his misso smoked and he said no, never.

later that day asks for some more weed 'later'. I oblige, saying come up when you want some. turns out 'later' is right in the middle of my livestream gig Im enjoying and I am personally about 5 cones deep and enjoying myself. I let him in. turns out he wants to smoke here. ugh.

anyway this dude is in my flat smoking my weed interrupting my live gig. I kind of try and lead him into talking if hes got some poo poo going on cos I like to help people out with that poo poo and he seems like the kind of guy with poo poo mates that wouldnt really be available for that. hes a bit on edge and mentioned his mrs is asleep and he came up to hang out. I suggested that if he has a problem with weed (or she does) im not the best person to be hanging around. I go for an easy let down by saying Im getting an early night as my roster is changing and Im gonna behave for the next few weeks, tafe wrapping up etc. he leaves.

cue this arvo when I get home. he hears me get home and asks to play COD. Im in a game with mates already and tell him to wait and I'll invite. I forget to, and i hear some knocking at the door a few min later. I had headphones on so not 100% sure if it was that or not, but definitely came from the door.

TLDR this guy who isnt really my cup of tea but otherwise OK seems like hes using me to sneak bongs away from his Misso.

I should not be enabling him, right? had I known any of that stuff I wouldnt be offering him weed. Im also conscious of the fact that if hes hiding regular drug use from his fiance then maaaaaaybe you have problems you are not addressing. additionally i dont want to piss this guy off since we are neighbors after all and he seems a bit cagey.

what would goons do?

I'm live on Twitch, come hang out! http://www.twitch.tv/raphandz?sr=a

I'm taking a break to bring in some washing and have a bite to eat. Stay tuned for more hole digging later. Maybe even scraping.

i did this once when I was 17 and even though I was super into eminem I did not stick with it

peroxiding my hair I mean, not eating more. Although I was about 85 at that point, which while you're probably right, was real fuckin chubby on a short dude like me. I reckon my healthy weight is about 70-75 tbh but yeah I do need to look after myself more thank you

I also really do not realise how high my voice sounds and how broad my accent is until I hear myself recorded, its nuts. I kinda sound like a dave hughes without brain damage
