Ms Littlefish

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!

... you were testing the blood in demon poop!? Your job is so awesome!!!!! XD

...lol, @Ms Littlefish - I was just being silly btw, although I really wasint sure what that was.

Y' know. Stool is stool. It's part of the job. But, lately there has been an epidemic of people not using the collection devices and just opting to put their uh...turd...in the envelope.

@Sharm Yeah. I'm pretty sure it's a hard fact that cats are liquid.

Cats are liquid

female cats shoot liquid. DIRTY JOKE LOLOLOL

@Kupotepo I'm a "behind the scene" type of roll. For the most part, I get basic labs. Urine, blood, body fluids, CSF. The inpatient floors occasionally have tissues and limbs. I've seen my fair share of mayhem in the halls, but my role typically does not include too much gore.

@Sharm I don't know if it's this bad nationally or if my market is particularly bad, but there are massive staffing shortages. Many of the lab employees are undertrained and undereducated. I'm the only one out of the assistants who my certs and knows BLS.

@Sharm Typically, a lab employee will never need to lead a crash. But, I personally believe every health care professional should know how to do CPR and use an AED. I've already had to call crash before just wondering around the hospital.

Opie*

Cannot stop laughing at these comments

That was a phone spaz... my bad.

I hadn't heard you found a new place since the last one fell through. Congratulations!

Thank you! Yeah. We did get a place but I was sorta just packing anyway. With the best luck, we'll be closing on the 19th. But, the seller might have to delay to the 26th. I'm REALLY hoping for the 19th because that gives us enough time to paint and fix a few small things before we have to leave the apartment. I really don't want to keep the cat out of that type of trouble.

Hah, yeah, that would get tricky. Cats are fun that way. I wish you good luck on the house.

My blood work indicates possible Celiac, but aside from systemic GI inflammation, my pathology did not. It's not normal to lose weight and nutrients with IBS; so they're not positive it's that either. That means my diagnosis is "we don't frickin' know." I've cut it out and I've been able to put three pounds back on and get a lot of relief from all my symptoms. They don't want to retest anytime soon.

I wasn't a bodybuilder. I had previously lost a crap ton of weight and got into lifting weights to help fix what had happened to my body composition.

Oh, I can understand that. I was getting a ton of blood work done, a tilt table test, mri, etc. Was not fun at all. 6 months later I use google and find out I was having panic attacks... lol Medical here is awful though. If you ever have to live in Virginia, don't. Lol

In France, we have what we call the "giboulées de mars" (April Showers, except one month earlier). There are sudden downpours, followed by an arrogant blue sky. You don't know what to wear anymore.
Perfect to catch rainbows, though!

Our summer storms are a lot like that. They often happen in the evening. It will get intensely dark but they roll through quickly. Then, they'll clear and you'll get an AMAZING sunset with a rainbow.

Youre hot and youre cold, youre yes and youre no.

Chocolate is always worth it. After months of barely being able to eat anything I just CANNOT stop being hungry, but I guess that's the natural order of things. I'm on the small side, but not THIS small!

At what point would you eat so much chocolate you’d become Ms LittleChocolate?

Probably already there. XD

enjoy

I'll send you a message, it will be 2 PM afterwards

It's dinner somewhere around the world, why not eat dinner?

I ate, took a nap, and ate again. Oy vey. XD

And, we'll hopefully have enough budget left over to bring these 80s nightmare bathrooms into this decade. But, hey! They work and the main part of the home is lovely. Totally forgivable if I have ugly bath vanities for awhile.

Ugly bathroom? Light them with scented candles. Soft glow hides a multitude of imperfections.
Good luck with this house.

The tiles and bath are just dated looking. It's the vanities that are unforgivable. 80s cabinets are an absolute blemish on interior design.

Pretty much. "YAY! I HAD SNACK! THROW TOY. SCRATCH EARS!" ZzzzZzzzzzZZzzzz

She is kind of a diva. She's an absolute sweetheart when she wants to be but she WILL get my attention whenever she demands it.

My cat does that to my house plants. He's also a hoarder; I can't have marshmallows in the house... he will steal the entire bag and eat it at his leisure.

One of the family cats is a hoarder. I moved the ottoman to vacuum and found tubes of mascara and eyeliner. She must have been batting them around for fun.

I actually donate a lot! But...I'm a professional vampire. I'm a phlebotomist!

HAH, oh gosh, I remember Daylight savings during my time studying abroad. It threw my internal clock off for quite awhile, time was not correct at all!

aw man... daylight savings time is just the worst. I don't have trouble adjusting my sleep pattern to it (though I know a lot of people who do) but oh, the dark mornings again!!! noooo

That's so dirty! That's the sort of thing that could actually kill someone if they don't notice in time. I can't understand the greed of some people.

You might be able to get the homeowner into big trouble. I think there's some sort of law that after finding out that there's certain types of hazzards, if the homeowner doesn't clean it up within a set time the place becomes officially condemned.

I'll see what happens in the morning. We're obviously withdrawing the offer. It's sort of a bummer but I'm still just a quick jog from the lake. There just isn't a lot else around here (at the moment) in my budget. I'm getting well enough to start looking for full-time work again. That would certainly help.

Nice. So the deal went through?

Yep. The offer was accepted. As long as it passes inspection with nothing major being discovered, I'll be moving in sometime mid-end of April!

@Shaz He does a pretty miserable job of anything related to decluttering and packing. He just stares at his stuff and has no idea where to start. I've always been the one who could vacate and move across the country overnight if I needed to.

That is AWESOME!!! I hope it all goes through - I can't think of anything nicer.

Congratulations! I'm happy for you!

@GolfHacker Yep! Still in Michigan. For the past three years I've lived a mile away from St Clair, now I have a front window view of it! Our #2 house was by the woods but we thought the utilities would get very high. More house out there then we needed.

Thank you, everyone! I'm very excited and still a little nervous. I don't want to get too ahead of myself with the packing and decor...but uh...YEAH, I DO!
