I am having a bit of hard time knowing that 'll be getting married now without my grandparents. On the other hand, my now fiancee is all about me getting the Cortez Kennedy painting from my mom so that's a plus. Also it's time for my Rome rewatch and I'll forever be annoyed by it getting cancelled halfway through season 2. Tulalip Tulips fucked around with this message at 03:47 on Jan 2, 2022 |

Yeah I don't really like soda but I will go through cases of sparkling water. I have a third hand Soda Stream and it's fine, the flavor additives are very hit or miss though.

Maybe it makes me a baby but I have a really hard time with end of the world media and zombies. It also makes my anxiety pretty bad. I have an ex who was very offended that I didn't like stuff like the Walking Dead and she thought it made me a little immature to have issues with it.

Oh my good friend keeps trying to get me to watch Handmaid's Tale but I'm in a similar "nah, too close to real life" space. Plus I've read the book and that was enough for me.

All I have to do is roll out of bed and turn on my work laptop to go to work this morning but I still don't want to. I've been checking email and already got contacted for an actual emergency on my vacation last week so I'm already caught up on most of my non-field work related work.

My state agency is also on a hybrid model and I really like it. Going in to the office 3 days a week and working from home 2 days works really well for me and it seems likely to stay that way given the huge amount of positive feedback. Plus my work from home days are Monday and Friday so I can't complain too much.

Most state agencies in Washington also don't drug test unless you do something like drive a car in to a wall or get caught reeking of booze or stealing meds. Half the time they don't even check your license to be sure it's not expired or suspended before you take out an agency car in King County, which was fun when someone got pulled over and it came out they had a suspended license for like 2 DUIs they got after they'd been hired.

Speaking of the dead I'm glad my mom pushed my grandparents memorial service back to next weekend because flooding is loving things up their area. She also agreed to give me the painting I want, which is the only thing from grandma and grandpa's I want. Now we're waiting for probate to clear before selling the house and splitting things per my grandparents wishes. I do wish they had done a "baby sister gets x amount at 18, 21 and 25" thing in their will since she will get a huge amount of money straight at 18.

Yeah a friend of mine from work caught original Covid in November last year and it took until September of this year for her to get fully cleared to come back to work full time. She wasn't even severe enough for hospitalization but it hosed her lungs up so badly that she now requires a rescue inhaler be on her at all times and has a hard time walking for too long. It also destroyed her marriage since her husband didn't do poo poo and still thinks Covid is no big deal.

I hate the hagiography and weird cult that was built up around RGB since it makes an actual discussion about her rulings and ideas almost impossible to have. At least with Scalia you can break down his poo poo without someone getting offended by it. RGB herself inspired a lot of women to get involved in policy and law, which is fine and good in its own way and I hope we can get to a point where there can be a more nuanced reassesment of her ala Sandra Day O'Connor soon.

GOOD TIMES ON METH posted:What does TFF think about the potential resurgence of the 2014 'tumblr girl' aesthetic, as predicted by NYT fashion writers? As long as super low rise jeans don't come back in a huge way for women I don't care. If it means my current leggings and oversized sweater/sweatshirt combo stays acceptable to go out in public in then folks can go right back in time to the 90s where we had frosted brown lipstick and body glitter everywhere.

Smock dresses are in again and I have one that's strictly summer only. Jumper dresses and tights under shortd are also back and I'm all about that.

LeeMajors posted:My folks were early adopters, so I remember downloading still-frame porn pics on IRC on a 14.4 connection in like 1993. My maternal grandparents had one of the first computers in our tiny town and dial up in the early 90's. I wrote my "please choose me for our town's spring fair pagent" essay on it in between my grandpa playing a lot of Doom. My paternal grandparents also had a computer with AOL and I got my own account as a pre-teen in 1999, I think. My friends and I used to to go to random chatrooms and AOL specific message boards for like Lord of the Rings and Sailor Moon since my account was not age restricted. ~~memories~~

My partner's teaching remote at least through next Friday because Seattle Public Schools refuses to call a district wide return to remote learning so each individual school basically is making the call depending on the number of staff and students out. Surprise! Most of the schools cancelling or temporarily going remote are all in the south end. Also people are predictably being super lovely about it. Meanwhile my agency still hasn't reposted the position I applied for and I'm starting to think our regional headquarters decided to reallocate it somewhere else.

I spent some time outside today since my mom and I were scouting some out door locations for a memorial service and it was nice. I'm hoping the weather stays decent in to next week since I work right by the Seattle waterfront and the seals start getting active again this time of the year. Same with eagles.

Always get an MMR and whooping cough booster since you never know when you'll encounter someone who isn't vaxxed and can spread both. I may be biased since I live and work in an where there are a lot of people who don't believe in either vaccine.

Guess who called up for after hours work tomorrow because one of my old cases blew up and they need a social worker who's worked it before? It's super sad but it's also one of those CPS cases that feels inevitable because the parent is has some serious mental heath issues that need more time to help than 30 to 60 day case can solve.

Skwirl posted:You're helping someone who is in crisis, I would recommend holding onto that. I think at this point I'm just super frustrated because I did so much work earlier on this case that no one followed up with so now I'm going to have to push to remove this kiddo because they are not safe. I hate removing kids and do my absolute best to avoid it but this is a case where the parent is unquestionably unsafe and it sucks. I've done both the investigative and the long term case carrying ends of CPS (plus non-case carrying intensive superivison and fatality/near fatality reviews) and I'll be hitting 8 years soon but there are times where it just doesn't get easier. Right now I just want someone to give me bullshit rich people custody cases all day, every day.

Lol I owed over $1000 in taxes three years in a row because I hosed up my deductions. Now I get a return but when I was super broke that always made me really nervous. I heard back from the supervisor for the court job I applied for and it's getting reposted in the next few days, hopefully. I really love my work but I really need a break from case carrying.

I'd go see MCR again in a heart beat. Sure I'd also be time travelling to like 2005 but it'd be worth it. Pop punk is coming back around a bit and I'm down as long as I don't get high and try to do the scene girl hair again. That kind of stuff is way less embarassing than my truest musical guilty pleasures. I'm also in full on stress naseau mode tonight and I hate it.
