Ms Littlefish

I was at my Detroit job. The winds came in so hard the automatic doors to the ER couldn't shut.

Rapid drop in temperature followed by strong winds... sounds like a cold front came through.

Exactly!

*sips tea under 51C°* ....

*stays inside AC controlled apartment and plays video games all day*

Also, this hospital is way, way, way smaller than the one I used to work at. So...das a lotta peeples.

Are you doing a full this time?

Still a half. I've had to scale back with all the health issues. The doctors obviously like that I'm active but they want me to be careful with how much I run since my weight is only now getting normal again.

Awesome! A half is still an amazing achievement. I was just curious.

Give them snacc and they'll forgive you lol

I like to go to her sleepy spot and just set a cat treat on her belly. <3

Do people get sick/injured more in this period of the year?

Well...the person I've been covering is believed to have to a severe case of "I don't want vacation to end" itis.

A very serious condition indeed.

I’ve had very, very bad GI problems for about ten years. They got horrifying last winter. I dropped almost 20 pounds over the course of two months despite eating like a maniac. I’ve felt very hypotensive all week and am getting neuropathy and vertigo again. I’ve lost 4 lbs this week despite healthy diet and now I’m getting a whopper of a migraine. Just took rescue medicine.

10 years??
Isn't there treatments or pills for this condition??

Hope for the best.

Have fun! Don't forget some shotguns!

LOL! I’m always on top of my hydration. I really am part fish. I’m pretty limited in what I can drink. I’m not going too hard but I haven’t eaten much so...crap.

Crap. Sky drunk is better indeed!

Thats rough! Everytime you do anything that involves someone you know and the word emergency its easy to lose your cool.

One of the advantages of being a stoic sociopath. When it is necessary, I don't differentiate a friend from a foe, because my emotional side completely shuts down until everything is over.

Most demanding and needy yet, have everything we don't.

(That was meant for taxes)

Hi Paycheck and Bills, I'm mr. Hardware. Broken Hardware. Can I join the club too?

Rest in pieces...

@Poryg I was referring to those who leave their parking spot. You wouldn't believe how much time some take in a really easy spot.

So what does it say if I don't go to the grocery store at all? Grow veggies of my own, have aspirations to raise food meats and order everything else I need off of Amazon?

@Philosophus Vagus Depending on the examiner there are only two options, both arise from the fact that you're unable to deliver requested data:
1. You're stupid (failure to deliver requested data = bad)
2. Your intelligence level is unknown (lack of data = cannot draw conclusions)

@Sharm Yep. I'd tell them the same thing I tell nurses who think I can fully result their coagulation study in 10 minutes, "It gets done when it gets done." And, when it's done there will be fruit trees, woody perennials, and is going to be sustained on rainwater, compost, and electricity.

@Kupotepo I'm doing well. Just getting used to this new schedule. I haven't been able to put much down in the yard as first I have to remediate the topography and soil composition this year. The back is really bumpy so I might just cut up the sod entirely, lime it, and put new sod down.

Yeah, especially with the inherent craziness of your schedule it seems like it would be better to put in the work now so you have less in the future.

You weren't a centrifuge lackey, you were the Centrifuge Operations & Maintenance Technician\Officer. I'm glad you're enjoying your new place of work.

@The Stranger That's just putting a spin on being a centrifuge lackey.

Thanks everyone. I feel good things coming. I just have to nail my new routine down.

Up at 0430 for the 0600 lab station, up at 0400 for the 0530. Done at 1400 or 1430. Loooooove it.

Just out of curiosity, at what time do you usually go to bed?

Between 8 and 9.

Looks nice.
Clean walls, big sofas and wooden floor, all stuff that I personally like.

That's a cool family-piece then with some great (well you know what I mean) history Mine was my grandmom's so it too saw WW2 up close. It's a little different but pretty similar so that caught my eye haha

@Ms Littlefish Oh Zounds, that sounds like a great plot hook.

yup. No coffee = not inhabitable

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure~

I'm still only in Part 1...

It takes so many turns, lol. Keep going. XD

My husband wanted to me to watch for years and now that I did, I'm obsessed.

Nice...until the floors send spinal fluid down the frickin' pneumatic system and try to make me tell the nurse they have to perform another spinal tap...

Congrats!! I hope you love your new house and job!
