How do people not understand that when you say to someone "you look tired" or "are you sick?", you are essentially telling them they look like shit? Get with the program everybody!

I mean yea, but it's not really malicious (most of the time). Generally it comes out of concern. So instead of saying "you look like shit, are you okay?" it's "you look a little down, are you feeling alright?"

you can ask if someone is alright without telling them they look bad.

that is how the Doctor brought down Harriet Jones, after all. seriously though, I feel like women do this to each other a lot, in a passive-aggressive way. like, "is everything ok? you look so tired." it seems like they are being friendly/ concerned but they're just being bitchy. (not always, but pretty often)

I hate the cold, hate my job, and hate getting out of bed. It sucks when all 3 of those things must happen as soon as my alarm goes off in the morning.
Surgeon says I'm all good & just experiencing a lot of swelling, which I could experience for months. So I guess I won't choke to death in my sleep, even though that's how I feel. Thyroidectomies are just loads of fun.

so, after years of explaining toddler sleep issues to worried parents, I finally got to experience the joy of a 3-yr-old's confusional arousal firsthand. basically, it is like watching your child be possessed (they get caught between being asleep and awake, with a feeling of being restrained or chased, and have to cycle out of it on their own).
my son woke up shrieking and crying for mommy but looked right at me and didn't recognize me. he was yelling "no", kicking, and thrashing around for a good 45 minutes before going back to sleep. the good news is, he won't remember it, but I think G and I will both be traumatized for life.
Fuck this stomach bug, or whatever I have. Tired of feeling like shit and not able to keep many liquids down. Thankfully I feel like I'm on the upswing these past few hours. Think the hot tea helped.

GRRRRRR
Boo to that. Stomach bugs are the worst.
Especially on the weekend. Booo! Hope you're feeling better soon Rothric

I hate dealing with medical bullshit.
I'm scheduled for round 2 of lithotripsy (procedure to get rid of kidney stone) this Friday. Last Week I get a call from the hospital about going in for pre-surgery testing/blood work. I didn't want to miss more work and I didn't have to go in for that during my last procedure a few weeks back. I call my doctor and the hospital a million times to try and talk to someone and eventually get through and am told that I can go to a lab to get blood work done (yay! I can go before work or on the weekend) and everything's fine and dandy.
Then I call today to confirm because I picked up the prescription for blood work and the hospital tells me I still need to go in and get other stuff completed. Even though I didn't last time (but I think that was a timing thing more than a normal way of doing things). So now I miss more work for dumb hospital stuff.
On the plus side, I did get a great pick-me-up from custeph who sent a letter with a neat little button to make me feel better. Thanks so so much for that Steph! It was the best letter I got recently....much better than all the medical paperwork junk I had. Put a smile on my face
But screw doctors/medical junk and the flip flopping info I keep getting.
some dildo stole the decorations i had on my apt door.
what the heck is wrong with people? your life is so sad you just go around stealing people's shit? i mean, it was worth like 7$.
That is pathetic. When I was a kid, and my parents had this God awful nativity scene in our front yard, someone stole baby Jesus. Just Jesus. Who steals baby Jesus?

i dunno, i heard baby jesus is pretty pricey on the black market. haha
but for reals. i mean i could understand stealing something of value to sell (not saying i condone it) but the ONLY outcome of them stealing this was being an asshole. it isn't worth anything!
My uncle is in the hospital. When they found him he wasn't breathing and they're saying that the oxygen to his brain had been cut off so long that even he makes it he won't be there. He's not breathing on his own and we have half our family from California flying out. My mom is a mess and I have no idea what to say to her. This is her twin. What do you say to someone who's twin, and only brother is dying in front of them?
Alcoholism sucks. I wish I would've answered his drunk dials more. I wish I would've hugged him more. I wish I visited more. Asked him how he was doing. Called him first. Had lunch with him.... Just something. I have no idea what to do and I feel so helpless just sitting here.

I'm so sorry, Monica. That is awful I think all you can really do is be there for your Mom, hug each other and cry together.

Be strong for your Mom. She needs you now. And round up some food for the family coming from California. Food is always good.

So sorry to hear about this, Monie. I'm going to make sure to tell those close to me I love them more often.
