I got distracted by another game and stopped playing Hellblade for a month and a half so I don’t remember what happened, so now I have to start from the beginning. And I know that as soon as I do I’ll start remembering stuff so I won’t have that “new game and everything’s new and exciting” feeling for a while till I get to the point I stopped at.

UPS mangled the hell out of the package they delivered today.

The stuff inside was fine as none of it was delicate but...gently caress. The box is ugly as hell. It's scrunched up like an accordion and they seemed to give no shits that the contents could have been damaged.

My physician changed my birth control, and now I have a lovely new symptom that is vaguely painful.
Bonus that it could also be a symptom of pregnancy :smithicide:

I've literally never had any problems with FedEx. The one time the USPS damaged something in shipment they attached an apology to it and said to let them know if there were any issues.

UPS is a steaming pile of poo poo that I've had nothing but trouble with. I wish Amazon let me pick who did the shipping because if it's UPS there's a pretty good chance they'll gently caress something up. FedEx? Not so much.

Will the new boss be replacing the old one or working alongside him? It sounds like they may be trying to save him being so overworked if it's the latter.

They're splitting the district in two, so I won't see my old boss again as my boss.

edit: my friend, who has been growing more and more distant, did tell me the last round of not-fertility drugs but some kind of pill for her PCOS that is supposed to help her get pregnant, didn't take. And part of me wants to scream at her, because she has KNOWN she has this since age 15, her mom has it, and still she wanted to wait to have kids until she was married and settled down, not counting on the fact she married a dude she met on WoW, her husband is a huge manchild who would not keep a job, they'd get separated and him kicked out, and now that they have a house and things look good, she's in her mid 30's and freaking out. It's like, she told me once she would never ever have kids unless she married a man (she is bisexual, or was until she told me she is actually asexual?) so she had to wait till she found one to marry, and....if you knew you had a timeline with fertility, you can't wait till most people have issues with it already?

Oh, and adoption is off the table. Fostering is off the table. She has always had a dream of having her own, so if you even mention adoption she loses her poo poo.

My city doesn't have any good bookstores. There's a Christian bookstore, and a creepy new-age woo woo used bookstore. And a full-price local authors and childrens bookstore. The college bookstore just started sorting their entire stock by author instead of subject, making it impossible to browse.

I never thought i would say it, but I miss Hastings.

I'm almost certain reading must be illegal where I live because there aren't any bookstores for miles. There's a mall by me, but it doesn't even have a big box chain bookstore like Barnes and Nobles like every other mall out there.

I've randomly got back into a game I enjoyed (Slime Rancher), but while the game has been added with new stuff since I last played, all it does is improves the core slime-ranching setup that I already have pretty much finished. There's really nothing else to do :(

Ordered a smart TV for my mom for mother's day. Had it sent to work. Did not have a chance to tell the manager on duty I was expecting a box. So when it came from an unknown carrier, they refused it. Now I can't get the box redirected to my house and am trying to get another one ordered, but a signature is needed, and I can't send it to work again, and loving Amazon won't tell me what shipper they will use.

loving Jetlag.
Flown back to Australia from visiting family in the UK and I'm struggling to get back into Aussie time for sleep.
I'm waking up after about 3 hours sleep and not getting back to sleep until the sun is up and then sleeping until early afternoon, or forcing myself up and spending the day as a loving zombie. No matter how tired I am when I go to bed at midnight I either doze for a few hours or just not sleep.
I have things to do ffs.

Same thing, I got some weird horrible allergy to some pollen or dust or who knows what in my late 20s so I take 2 prescription nasal sprays and now I’m good. Both are generic.

My mom said if I were born a boy she would've named me Corin Albium. :( No one gets away without a lovely name. Except my sister Ariel, whose name is fine, just cursed because The Little Mermaid came out like 6 months after she was born.

I feel extremely bad for those Mormon kids whose parents could only have fun by giving them bad names like that though. Mine's just one letter wrong, theirs is like "get blackout drunk and try to say a list of the most popular white names" wrong.

I was on break at work at a set of 4 empty picnic tables and this mom and her kid decides they had to sit with me rather than at any of the empty tables. They would. Not. Stop. Talking. Repeating the same sentences over and over and constantly complaining about everything they could think of.

I don't understand that there's so many people that can't seem to function without making noise every waking second of their lives.

Jfc this. I recently bought noise blocking headphones because my downstairs neighbors' default volume is shrieking and/or squealing. They're college girls and oh so full of joy about life and drinking and I loving hate them.

It makes me feel like an old curmudgeon.

It was annoying enough to me when I had to tell people “my (ex) husbands name is [name] with a ‘y’”. And he was born way before the “add a ‘y’ to your kids name.” I guess he was one of the first. Poor guy. .... he also wants to name his theoretical son [his name] jr. —e or maybe it was [his name] II.

Unfortunately it’s not Homyr Jr. The kids can’t call him HoJu.
