Me at work when I bookmark anything I think may be useful for reference. I have to go through my bookmarks every so often because I accumulate so goddamn many.

I didn’t realize growing up was so overrated when I was a kid.

Recruiting for the next Tremors film has begun.

Oh that’s a good one! Especially since profit is up a whole fuck ton rn. I did do a job where we made $5400 to retrieve 3 emails.

Thank you for such a detailed response! My company pays for the first attempt at a cert test, but I have to pay for it myself if I fail and have to retake it. I am also going to ask for a raise if one isn’t offered. I had to do a self-evaluation and listed a bunch of stuff I want to learn and start doing. I have to get help from other techs for a lot of stuff that I end up not understanding, and I want to not have to rely on them so much going forward. Like, they’re more than happy to help me, but I don’t want them to put their work aside for me. As for my coworkers, they’re all absolutely amazing. I consider them work friends and we are close and support each other.

I know that I have to get a specific Microsoft cert to get discussions on a promotion started. I attempted the cert exam and failed pretty badly. Gotta study more.

I plan on asking for specific feedback and how I can improve and all that.

Super tempted to ask for one if one isn’t offered lol

Gotta speedrun that shit

I’ve tried that and he would just get very scared. I don’t want him to be scared.

LaunchesKayaks, 10 months ago

He just had a checkup and everything is fine. I’m 100% not taking the tough guy route.

LaunchesKayaks, 10 months ago

Thank you so much for all the advice! I’ll definitely try out what you said. He just got a checkup and the vet said he is fine. He could probably use more exercise, but I physically can’t take him out because my leg is messed up. My sister is in charge of that during the day until my parents get home.

Yeah. We are going to be at my parents until at least January. My ankle/leg got super fucked up. The accident was also traumatic for my dog. I was screaming with pain when it happened and had to drag myself inside to call for help. My boy got so scared that he ran off into the woods. I wouldn’t let my mom call an ambulance until she got him back. She said he was so scared he was shaking. Throughout this whole ordeal, I’ve cried a lot and I’m sure it makes my dog upset. He has been up my ass since I got hurt and does his best to comfort me.

My parents also have two dogs and one is an anxious mess, which doesn’t help my boy. The anxious dog freaks out over the littlest things and has to be consoled constantly. My parents’ dogs also love to sneak in and eat my dogs’ (I have a goldendoodle puppy as well) food. My dogs also had a very strict routine before all this happened and it’s completely different now.

I’m going to make some toys for my dogs to keep my hands busy and hopefully help my boy. All of his fave stuff is at my house, and my parents haven’t had time to grab it for me

My little sister has also been getting very frustrated with all of the dogs running around and/or misbehaving. She has autism and doesn’t understand that yelling at them and lecturing them doesn’t help. In fact, yelling and lecturing makes my beagle very upset. I’ve been working with her to try to make her understand what is and isn’t appropriate behavior towards the dogs. I’ve been helping her with how to recognize what the dogs need to do in situations where they are being crazy. Sometimes they need a nap, or to run outside, or they’re hungry.

I’m going to call my vet today and see if they think upping his Prozac temporarily will help at all.

The healing is going very well. I got my surgery on Oct 30th. I’m in a lot of pain still, but I have a chronic pain condition, so I’m not surprised I still hurt so much.

I got a Maisonneuve fracture in my right ankle/leg I got a screw on the right side of my ankle to reattach a bone. I got a plate and two tightrope devices on the left side of my ankle to put my syndesmosis back together and to get my tibia and fibula back in place.

My surgeon seemed super pumped that I got this type of fracture. Apparently you have to twist your ankle in a very specific way to get a fracture like this. He told me all about it and he was so enthusiastic. He got even more excited when I asked him to take pics of the inside of my foot because I wanted to see it.

His enthusiasm has made the experience less terrible lol.

That’s a really good idea. I’ll do that.

LaunchesKayaks, 11 months ago

Thank you! I’ll try to schedule worrying for a later date and time and see if that helps. I’m a procrastinator, so I can just keep rescheduling the worrying forever lmao

Isn’t that one super NSFW?

LaunchesKayaks, 11 months ago

My mom is on her way to my house right now. I told her to grab my backpack which has a book in it. I have so many books to read lol

LaunchesKayaks, 11 months ago

I plan on it. I don’t wanna be fucked for life

LaunchesKayaks, 11 months ago

I plan on that. Not looking forward to it, but I gotta take care of myself. I have lots of pets who depend on me.

LaunchesKayaks, 11 months ago

I’ve had lots of surgery, but this one is the second most intense. I’m terrified of how I’m going to feel afterwards. They will be putting some hardware in and I’m afraid it’ll hurt more than it does now. My pain is so bad right now that I’ve been crying for hours. Morphine isn’t even taking the edge off.

I use Google drive to backup my pics and memes because I don’t have enough to warrant getting anything bigger. I have the $2/month Google One subscription because the free one was barely too small. I can’t get rid of memes tho.

LaunchesKayaks, 11 months ago

I used to do this, and then I got a beagle. Now, if I don’t get up with the first alarm, my beagle screams until I get up. He’s so loud lol

You just gotta take the loss and burn your house down.

My one pedo uncle got so constipated that the shit inside of him crushed his heart. Nobody was upset by it.
