I don't have to work this week because of "spring break" so I finally have time to clean the apartment.

Which means I don't have an excuse not to clean the apartment and have to do it when I could be using all this free time to have fun :(

I'm hungry and there's some great leftover in the fridge but I'm not sure when I made it so my brain tries to convince me that it's going to make me sick but there's less than 1% chance it's bad since it smells good and looks fine.

I'll be having a baby in two months and people are giving us a poo poo ton of gifts so we can't buy any baby stuff until we're done receiving gifts since we'll have too many duplicate :( There's so many cute stuff we want to buy. I guess the sometime slightly less cute stuff people get for us will have to do!

A shame tasty berries aren't kind to your colon. Don't put a quart of blueberries in your blender either, causes similar results. It's like Seagram's and 7-Up, good when it's happening but so many regrets later.

Strangely related to the thread title, I pooped and my anus hurts. I believe it's because like all of us in the first world we enjoy pooping while sitting down instead of squatting. Squatting makes me poop effortlessly, but then I have to squat which makes me feel super weird.

I've always heard that you should basically never use any Liquid Plumber/Drano type of products ever. Maybe like once or twice, but despite what they say, they are bad for all pipes, metal and plastic.

Yes why?

It's that thing

If I put the coffee in at the right temp it'll stay there forever, but if I put it in too hot I have to leave it open or pour it in something else otherwise my coffee is still burning hot when I come back home after work. I liked it more with cold drinks during the summer. There was still actual ice in my iced coffee when I forgot the mug in my car for two days.

also my FWP is that he got sick (probably from all the grody kids that run around at his work) and now I'm sick. :(

It's not the cheapest but it's an amazing product. One of the things I like the most is that it's extremely small for it's capacity. Insulated mugs tend to be quite huge. I don't know how they can make the insulation that good when it's that small (or why other don't do the same!)

And now for a new problem. My great pair of expensive headphones makes my ears slightly hot and get slightly uncomfortable after hours of wear. I have to remove them for 10 minutes or so and then I can't concentrate because of all my coworkers constantly speaking in the teachers lounge :(

They had the best loving feta cheese I have ever eaten at costco. We hosed up and let some of it stand out of the brine and it became super gross. I went back to costco and they didn't have it anymore :( I had to buy the kirkland brand which is pretty good but not even the same kind of cheese as the real actual loving delicious feta I had before.

At least the parmesan is delicious

I'm sorry for you, sad goon, whose best feta is from loving Costco.

:( I'm sure I can find better, but not some that I can regularly buy because I'm a teacher so I'm poor. Anyway costco has a surprisingly good selection of cheese here (I'm from Quebec so there is a lot of our cheeses and they are arguably some of the best on the continent). At stupid low price too.

It was sheep's milk feta and it was so soft and not too salty.

Found it. It was this one : http://www.shepherdgourmetdairy.com/products/feta.html It's leagues beyond anything I ever had before. But I don't buy feta from fancy cheese places.

I watched some TV show where people buy houses and renovate them and I feel envious. Also kind of perplexed about how the gently caress can people who don't seem to have amazing jobs with one person living at home afford 600k houses + 200k remodeling.

Don't you guys help your friends paint their houses when they move? I always thought this was normal friend habits. I helped most of my friends move/clean/paint when they get to a new place and they helped me when I did the same. Of course I'm talking about real friends, not coworkers and acquaintances. If they are just repainting their houses then yeah do it yourself or pay someone unless you're my best friend and we drink beer while we paint.

My first world problem is that I'm having twins so we're going to have 3 kids instead of 2 and that's a little unpractical. We have enough money to manage and won't really be in trouble and we both have great families that will help us a lot, but we probably won't be able to do a cool trip with them during parental leave like we did with our first because gently caress doing 8 hours in an airplane with 2 babies and a toddler. So yeah this whole twin business is inconvenient.

And if that wasn't enough, it's not even consistent! Other settings go from right to left. Stupid microwave

Nutritionists aren't a real profession or legally protected title. Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist. What you want is a registered dietitian.

Depends where you live. Here the prefered term is nutritionist and while both terms are protected they don't like being called dietitian since they want to be seen as more than people that give you a diet so you lose weight.
