Random Fail: First World Problems

[Melena]

Well we are five hours in and the spinal still hasn't worn off. I have no clue how I'm going to get astylla up two flights of stairs, or if they are going to discharge her at all tonight

[kuronosan]

That's not uncommon, actually. It's graded. It'll gradually go away. She might have to go in a chair but I can't help you with getting up the stairs.

When you say biopsy I assume there were uterine or ovarian polyps?

[Melena]

All they have said is abnormal cells in/around her cervix, so they've been monitoring it and having this done every few months. This is the first time they've done the spinal though.

As for discharge they said they won't let her leave until she can walk on her own

[Astylla]

Stating the night in the hospital..my first time ugh. In the past I did gave polyps which is why this is so regularly redone. I'm still planning on a hysterectomy in the next year or so.

Don't fall asleep without putting the bed in the horizontal position. I left it up my first night (because i was too loopy to think of it) and got a murderous kink in my neck. Made the whole experience that much more miserable. Also ask the nurses to keep your door closed. Hospitals are fucking loud, and sounds carry. They're gonna have to be coming and going fairly often, to check on you, but if they don't need to take your vitals you might actually get some sleep. Maybe. If you need shit (extra pillows, blankets, tissues, whatever) ask for it. You're not imposing. It's literally their job. Just be polite and it's KNP.

Don't press the "Staff Assist" button. That's for emergencies. Plain old nurse call button for everything. It might be on a cord in the bathroom (that's what got me- "a cord? that must be for emergencies! I'll try this other button.") but it's still just the nurse call button.

it took 10 minutes to get it in. But actually that part felt awesome.

[FNH]

Went to an interview. They asked questions relating to a position I didn't apply for, and my limited experience relating to that position was 3 years ago.

[Aksannyi]

Well that was quick.

[Silenka]

I got a PM here for the first time in years and it was just a spambot

That's like opening a present on Christmas Day and it's your grandma's hand-me-down underwear.

[Astylla]

I got it too and I'm sure many others also.

[FNH]

Received papers to prepare for a background check for that aforementioned bad interview. Would double my yearly income but I am not confident running the equipment, so I'm not really sure what to do if they call me back. With enough practice it'd be nbd, just amazed the picked something I put on the bottom of a resume entry and didn't even ask how many hours of seat time I had. Gonna end up in a youtube video lol.

[Zetanio]

Don't tell them you post here. Guaranteed failure.

Your Christmases sound terrifying.

[Cream Soda]

Bout to drink my first Soylent.

Is it cheaper now?

can't possibly be worse than my cooking

[Airenn]

My order for a month supply was 48 and idk if they send everyone a free mixing container and scoop, but I got those, too. Shake VERY well and cooling it makes it an easier drink to drink. I added the bananas and honestly, I think zet said I wasn't about to get close to banana smoothie, but it's actually very close and tolerable that way. I also can't imagine that adding banana to it would fuck up the point of soylent either. Extra potassiumz.

This is dangerous to let see the light of day much less put on BG, but here we fucking go anyway, bad decisions.

I generally have a high libido - Especially with the weight loss, dietary changes and fitness kick I've been on the last few months.

I have no outlet for said libido, and am dangerously close to sending my ex an e-mail saying (I think) I'm still in love with him. (Not the recent ex, more like the GWB ex) Anyway, he's been in (afaik) a fairly committed/happy/adult relationship with someone for almost four years now, so I obviously know I should get over it all and move on, but christ man. I want him so bad.

Uggggggggh. Tear me a new one BG, I know I deserve it after that.

[Cream Soda]

Your ex is an ex for a reason.

just saying

[Tyrath]

^

4 years too? It's time to move on. You can find outlets for that libido without hitting up exes. IIRC you were pretty fit so unless your face is a huge problem, it shouldn't be that hard

[dasva]

Ehhh the desire to go back is perfectly understandable. It's a trap you know it's a trap but it's still enticing. Just don't give in and instead find another penis

[TheDirtyHobo]

I say do it. Thread has been on the sad/too real side lately. Could use some good old fashioned self-stupidity.
