A photo of three people sitting around a restaurant table smiling at the camera. There's me, a white man with a short red beard and short brown hair, Kristina, a white woman with short brown hair, and Rebecca, a white woman with long brown hair.

As always Mamak was excellent, and it was lovely to meet @rfernandez in person! (Although I think @rfernandez's choice of dessert was... not excellent. 😅)

A photo of three people smiling at the camera. There's me at the very right, a white man with a red beard wearing a Metallica t-shirt and while you can't see it, I'm holding a guitar. To the left is Hob, a lanky white man with shoulder-length curly hair and a bass guitar on his back while he's sitting at an electronic piano, and then on the other side is Dan, an Asian man with... uh... not long but also not short hair? He's sitting at a Roland electronic drum kit. The floor of the space we're in is a bit of a mess of wires.

And last on the agenda today was a jam session after work!

A photo of an open grassy area surrounded by tall trees, with a little stream off to the right and a chonky plank of wood going over it to allow for crossing.

A photo of four people smiling at the camera. There's me, a white man with a short red beard and short hair, velvetrhapsody, a white woman with VERY long light brown/bordering on blonde hair and glasses, Kristina, a white woman with short brown hair, and w0d, a white man with long dark brown hair that's dyed neon green at the front and a huge long dark brown beard.

After yesterday's efforts we had a relatively chill one today. Went to Araluen Botanic Park where there was allegedly a tulip festival, but October is right at the tail end of things and the tulips were looking pretty ratty for the most part. It was still nice to get some nature in and take some photos though: https://www.flickr.com/photos/virtualwolf/albums/72177720320979851 Then in the afternoon we went over to visit some friends from LiveJournal who we've known for nigh on 20 years and used to live in Sydney (w0d and velvetrhapsody, in case anyone from the early-to-mid 2000s Sydneysiders community is on here). He plays guitar and drums and she used to play saxophone and apparently electronic saxophones are a thing and she'd been toying with the idea of getting one, so we're going to make some music together at some point! (Also I say "chill one" but I just checked and I've still done over 10k steps.)

A selfie of four people grinning at the camera. @az's partner, a white woman with really cool bright pink hair and glasses, Kristina, a white woman with short brown hair, me, a white man with short brown hair and a red beard, and @az, a white non-binary person with brown hair.

Met the extremely lovely @[email protected] and their equally lovely partner tonight! We went to the Japanese place that's just around the corner from where we're staying, and while it was quite tasty, surprisingly the place we went to in Midland the other night was better. Final step count for the day is 17.5k steps, 13.43km. Ded.

A photo of three people sitting around an outdoor pub table. Me, a white man with a short red beard and an *ahem* very receding hairline, Kristina, a white woman with short brown hair, and @burgerdrome, a white man with longer hair that's pulled back and big beard that's been plaited, who is throwing the shaka sign.

Tonight we met up with @burgerdrome for dinner at the pub around the corner from where we're staying!

A photo of a bento box with teriyaki chicken, rice, a couple of pieces of sushi, some spinach and lettuce with a delicious and really light sesame kind of dressing, and a slice of blood orange.

A photo of four people sitting around a restaurant table: me, a man with a short red beard and short brown hair, @yayKM, a woman with short brown hair, @ohthyme, a clean-shaven man with glasses and somewhat short hair who is leaning his head on his girlfriend's shoulder, who is a woman with shoulder length dyed pink hair.

And tonight was absolutely incredible Japanese with @ohthyme and his lovely girlfriend!

A wide-angle photo of six people sitting around a somewhat messy music area in our office. I'm on drums, we have someone on bass guitar, two guitarists, a keyboardist, and a vocalist.

Yessss, jam session was excellent! We had a group of other people who were using the space just before us and some of them stayed back and ended up playing with us as well. I turned out to be the only drummer so only played that, but got some compliments on it which I was stoked about! Especially given that the other people were waaaay above my level in terms of guitar or bass skills, haha. They were actually playing some songs, none of which I had the remotest idea of how to play on drums and some of them which I hadn't even heard, but I was able to put down a good beat at the right speed and it worked out really well. We even ended up doing some bluesy-sounding thing at the end where I did a shuffle beat and it sounded fantastic!

A photo of three smiling people sitting at a restaurant table. There's me, a white man with short hair and a red beard that's in need of a trim, @yayKM, a white woman with short light brown hair, and @thewetmale, a white man with dark brown hair pulled back into a ponytail. In front of us are two roti tisu, which are huge cone-shaped sweet Malaysian desert things.

Most excellent to finally meet @thewetmale in person!

A photo of the corner of a room that has a whole bunch of musical equipment in it: there are three electric guitars and a bass guitar sitting in a stand at the left, two very large speakers, an electronic drum kit, a MIDI keyboard, and a full size piano at the right that is painted in extremely garish bright colours.

A photo of five smiling people looking at the camera. There's me, a man with short brown hair and a short red beard holding a bass guitar, a tall man with shoulder-length hair sitting down holding an electric guitar, two men sitting at the drum kit each holding one drum stick each, and a woman with long brown hair holding a bright pink ukulele.

The reason I was in the office today was because it turns out we have a whole set of musical instruments in the "wellness room", so a bunch of us decided to get together to play some music! It was SO FUN! Only two of us could play guitar or bass so I mostly stuck to one of those, and we ended up with two people playing drums together (one person would do the hi-hat and the other would do the kick drum because nobody was coordinated enough to do both together, lol) and we absolutely got into a groove and were rocking out and it was so excellent. It's planned to be a regular thing and I'm so looking forward to the next one. (There is a group of Very Talented people who get together and play most Wednesdays and Fridays but that was way too intimidating for us so we did our own little thing.)
