Aw, you guys care about my wonky eye.  I slept with the darn thing in and went to the doc this a.m. The nurse was really nice and got it out asap. Apparently I was right not to futz with it a bunch more, since that leads to damage and infection and funtimes. So now I am problem free! For now.... Dun dun dunnnnnnn

I have to wait four more days to see if I qualify for Medicaid since I'm turning 26 in a couple months. If I don't end up getting insurance, since my employer constantly keeps me just under the hours needed to qualify for a work plan, my daily medications will be >50% of my yearly income and the stress of finding out whether or not I'll qualify is making me sick to my stomach. .

I went to the grocery store primarily to get one thing. I came home with a bunch of groceries that are not that thing. Now I need to go out of my way tomorrow to get what I need.

Speaking of lovely healthcare, my mom is a nurse who fell at work pretty badly last month, and the latest MRI has shown she has arthritis in her knees. The arthritis is completely unrelated; she has arthritis because she's 46 and has been a nurse literally all her working life. Her job, however, is now trying to force her back to working 12 hour shifts by declaring her injury a 'pre-existing condition'

I'm doing more work than my peers and am the de facto supervisor for my team. My boss literally can't promote me because of our extremely regimented structure. However, I can't drop any responsibilities. I gotta get a new job.

Seconding that American healthcare issues don't belong in this thread. Start a second world problems thread. Or third world. Not sure where the line is these days.

I felt too guilty to kill them, plus the queen and protectors looked cool as hell. If I saw a roach though, I would scream bloody murder. I just ate McDonalds. I feel ok right now but I know I'm going to be sick pretty soon. Also goddamn is McDonalds expensive.

Had an appointment for some pointless bullshit that could have been handled in two minutes over email this morning at 11. I was there on time, but the person I was meeting with wasn't available till 11:40, so I just had to sit and wait for forty minutes (and I couldn't leave and come back because they couldn't tell me how long the wait would be).

I felt too guilty to kill them, plus the queen and protectors looked cool as hell. I'm curious, what did you ultimately do? The end result of my ant issue is so stupid I'm calling it a FWP: I put out some Terro traps (the ones with pre-mixed liquid that are taken back to the nest) and they worked great. While I'm glad I don't have a literal traffic line of ants criss-crossing my kitchen, I feel low-key awful about having to basically poison a living colony of creatures. Like, poo poo. They thought they got this awesome food, gulped it down, brought it home, and only after they passed it on to the rest of the colony (including, I presume, their Queen), they just died off. I don't even like bugs and insects, but I respect their place in our ecosystem and it sucks that I had to murder a bunch for doing what they've done for longer than we've been alive. e: oh, and another FWP, there's a podcast I've added to my rotation, and one of the older episodes I was really curious about is defunct. This is the second time I've loaded a podcast to find that a huge chunk of the older episodes are defunct. At least with this one, it's only a single episode.

Like a voice in the back of my head says "shouldn't you be playing X game instead?"

Yesterday one of my girlfriend's cats ate too much, too fast, and puked in the one room with carpet instead of hardwood. Today her other cat decided to follow his example. I got to clean it up both times because "puke is gross!" I think all three of them need to be put down.

I need to help my friend find a person in the states who can acid etch something, because of a project we want to tackle and the normal dude we use for stuff said "Nope" cause he's busy. I found a dude overseas who can probably do it, but I don't think it'll clear customs and shipping back and forth would be incredibly expensive. I'm gonna have to call strangers or email them, and the unknown frightens me. Also, the chili I made for dinner wasn't SPECTACULAR but it was pretty good. I feel like I let myself down somehow.

In retaliation for me putting eye drops in her eye, my kitten scratched me right under mine. It hurts like a fucker and every time I blink it bleeds a tiny bit. I am against declawing cats but motherfucker she makes it hard. My rpg group had a fight last night about the story being delayed because one player's character was about to be kidnapped to meet the Big Bad and meet with her alone, and that player threw a shitfit, complaining how freaked her character would be and OMG not fair and why do I want to delay the main storyline so much when this is literally the only sidequest/thing we have had, and there IS in fact a purpose behind it. I really want to ask this player if she is so eager for the game to be over, because if she wants out, I can arrange that. My weekend plans have fallen through, which sucks because the weather is supposed to be great.

I just started a job with a fire/flood/crime cleanup company. First day, cleaning items. From a house that had a bedbug infestation. We weren't even cleaning furniture, then we went to bug bomb the crater furniture plus everything else we cleaned. You get one guess as to who the ONLY PERSON to wind up with bedbug bites is.

A couple days ago a family member decided to drop into town just out of the blue, and managed to get arrested less than 24 hours later because the first thing they did was visit a nearby town where they had an old warrant for drug-related offences. They're out now but seriously what the gently caress. Also the hot water in my apartment complex has been out since yesterday and I need a shower. My hair feels goony as gently caress and I probably don't smell much better.

bradzilla posted:Probably by being a filthy goon.

Four years in this place, no ants. We're pretty sure we narrowed it down to a can of soda that a friend of ours brought over and left in the kitchen, since they clearly beelined for it the little ring a can leaves on a table. But that's just water condensation, so it's still weird why they'd come to our place just for that.
