May I interest you in some…garlic ranch?

That…blows my mind. Wow.

It sounds like you have left the hospital though - if so, I am really glad you are doing better. That situation sounds terrifying. When I started reading I thought maybe from a dental procedure - I never considered it could happen from cheek biting. That’s good information to have.

This is fair. I think the prices I am most annoyed by are for the pregnancy test and the ondansetron. But you’re right, I am very glad it wasn’t something serious (especially since they ruled out a kidney stone - that’s not something I want to deal with again lol). The one thing I am grateful for is that I don’t have to pay before they will help. I don’t think it’s like that everywhere and it’s definitely not like that for my pets either, which I could also spend time complaining about but I will refrain lol

Absolutely!

I aspire to be like you! I finally am going to have a DVD player and I am absolutely THRILLED. No joke. It’s going to be fantastic.

Not as fantastic as an old VCR since it’s like 2% harder to fast forward through the ads. But pretty close!

I would love to know also. They are all spoken here for sure (quite a large population of people who speak the languages I listed) but what confuses me is the area codes are usually not my region for these calls.

This is helpful. Thank you

Excellent. Thank you. How do you pronounce () {?

I appreciate it, but I can’t do either unfortunately since I have medical issues and need to answer many unknown numbers.

The quesadillas. Again. And again.

I can’t stop eating them. I prefer their quesadillas over authentic ones tbh. It’s the sauce! And the baja blast!

The fact that we have to ask is scary enough

My neighbor likes to do yardwork at 10pm

Luckily he has electric equipment so it doesn’t make as much noise

Except for the days he decides to do woodworking too

The number of people in my town that think our language is American, Mexicans speak Mexican, all Asian people are Chinese, and any random combination of cities/countries are part of the United States makes this very plausible.

Don’t worry - I never get anything done. 🥸

Yeah but it used to not be ignored so now me and this random person with my name basically share an email address. We don’t get each other’s emails all that often somehow. We first chatted years ago when I got an important email for a job she applied for (soon after they started ignoring the dots), and she seemed decent so I didn’t change it. Definitely a huge risk but here we are.

Did mine a few weeks ago. The only part I’m stuck on is OneDrive, which I unfortunately need. I got access to my personal files but not the shared files. The other part is I still need to download all of my mods…which I am not looking forward to 😆 but let me just say it is so nice to have a computer that actually works! It’s older so it was getting impossibly slow.

Between Linux and the new IRS software I am feeling spoiled.

Well if you don’t test for it then you won’t have it. So there’s no need to cover any treatment because it will no longer exist whenever Trump is king president

I was on Artemis and then Jerboa and now Thunder (probably a few others in between).

Artemis was going to be great but is no more, sadly.

Jerboa I just couldn’t like. I think my biggest issue when I was using it was you could only search for community names? I can’t remember exactly I just remember the difficulty searching was the last straw for me.

Thunder is great. I don’t think I have any complaints. It works as I need it to and probably has a bunch of features that I don’t use. It’s pretty new still so I’m trying not to get too attached lol but it’s updated pretty regularly, commenting works well, it allows you to preview before posting. Search seems to work great. I guess the only issue is the delay in notifications? Not really an issue for me but I guess if you’re having a more immediate conversation in the comments it might be.

Yep.

At my first job I was in charge of implementing new software (definitely not in my job description - I was basically a secretary). I was discussing security concerns with the head honchos and they interrupted me and dismissed my concerns because they “only hire honest people.”

They gave everyone admin permissions.

Yeah, if you mean laps etc it’ll be when I can move up to more intense stuff. Right now I can basically sit and float around.

Right now the exercises I do feel like I’m doing nothing (until later, then I’m exhausted for days). It’s frustrating because before all of this happened I was doing a lot of incline and strength training, which I can’t do anymore. The exercises I’m able to do now basically amount to a few flutter-like moves and some shoulder work. Even that was too much this week so going to have to tell my trainer we have to pull back even further.
