I got to wait longer for my coffee because someone decided to get their 8am flirt on.

2025 was quite a journey. From unemployment to employment, finding my place in a new industry, slowly getting my confidence back which also helped my mental health.

No plans for 2026 yet.

But ready for anything.

The Total Mobility scheme is how I get to work so I can pay the stupid governments taxes.

Big trouble in little China has replaced Rocky in my Letterboxd favourites.

You can now continue with your day.

For a long time at work I have had imposter syndrome. Today was the day I realised I know what I'm doing and I can do the job.

Your fancy algorithm keeps telling me to try walking for exercise.

Stupid algorithm.

Last night a kid on crutches said "Twins!" when he saw me.

It took all my strength not to say "But you'll be fine in 6 weeks."

I'm a nice guy 98% of the time.

I see the government is reviewing the total mobility scheme.

It allows me to get to work, earn money and pay taxes.

Absolutely

I heard heavenly pop hit in the mall and it's been stuck in my head for a week.

Haven't had time to look at an NZIFF programme. Just going to see what's on when I have days off

Superman was very good. But it moves very fast. Felt like 90 minutes.

Could have benefited from slowing down.

Got asked what shift work was like.

You're constantly jet lagged.

Go to the mall just to hear my favorite holiday sounds.

Don't stare

Stop staring

Leave the man alone

Stop staring right now

It's rude to stare

Sorry about the staring

Have applied for photo ID at work.

As is tradition for my ID photos, I look like a serial killer.

If I fall asleep in a movie I leave that out of the review.

My F1 review is on letterboxd now.

Clearly by the end of the course I had changed a few people's impressions of what a disabled person could do.

The biggest was by being active and vocal and respectfully refusing to sit out any exercise.

The respectfully part is new for me.

It's always interesting when I'm thrown into a group scenario that requires a lot of active work. Today I did a first aid course. Including CPR. I had to modify it to suit my way of moving and sitting..

Years ago a woman screamed at me in Birkenhead. I had gone to school with her son and she had heard I was dead.

Today I saw her again and she made a point of saying my name like she was still adjusting to my realiving
