@Silvereyes I am so sorry dude. I hope with time you remember only the good times and laugh, but for now the pain is normal.
Separate post…
Well I have Covid )= You ever eat someplace and then later when your tummy hates you you have this unreasonable feeling that you know what it was? You’re like “it was the olives on that sandwich,” even though you have no reason to suspect them. They smelled and looked fine. It could just as easily be the mayo or the highly suspect looking lettuce, but you’re sure. It was the olives!?!? << that’s what’s going on now. I was on a plane Sunday. I’m sure it was the dude with the Maga hat and the bass pro shop shirt. Had to be. I’m sure of it lol. Anyway I hope it passes soon. I feel like death.
Thanks for the kind words everyone. Just been very low energy this past few days. I’ve been keeping the other cat inside, mainly for my own anxiety. He was distant the last few days but finally came up to me and snuggled up last night on the couch, so hoping he’ll be OK in the end. The house just feels so much emptier. Trying to take everything one day at a time. I have a week off work in a couple weeks time which might be good just to get away from work and rest for a bit.
A couple weeks ago, my grandad watched the 2007 Hitman film. He watched the whole thing, but didn’t seem to like how overpowered 47 was (he likes sci-fi to an extent and action moreso, but it was “getting silly”), nor did he know what was going on half the time. I guess he joins the club of those who did not like the films, lol
Work today was tough. Busy busy afternoon. It calmed down in the evening thankfully so we got caught up on cleaning tasks but…
Please be kind to retail workers if they’re gonna close soon.
10 mins before close, a couple comes in and orders 2 different fancy lattes.
5 mins before, a guy comes in and thinks really hard about what he wants for 2 mins, then settles on a basic coffee.
1 MINUTE before close, this dude struts in to get a fancy latte, just UUUGH.
I wish people were more nice to retail workers in general. In my experience working in a dollar store and now a regular grocery store lots of people are perfectly fine being rude or outright yelling their frustrations onto us for their own mistakes or problems that we can’t influence or help.
My mum had to install one of those ultrasonic dog whistle apps, the neighbours have this woeful mutt that does nothing but bark and whine all day until their owners come home. It as spent the better part of today barking and when I floated the idea past them the took to it themselves. Mum found they had apps for USF whistles while looking for a genuine emitter.
About 1 or 2 weeks ago I noticed a white lump under my skin below my left knee and on the outside of my leg. Like it was at the top of my fibula. It seemed hard, and kinda itchy but only if I’d mess with it. There was no pain with it.
So today I’m sitting on my chair in front of my computer, wearing shorts… And I see this white/yellowish dried film or some other substance on my calf. I scratch it off… That bump now has a cut or something on it. So… I squeeze it. This clear, but thick substance comes out. It didn’t even have an odor. I got more out and wiped it off with a paper towel. It started turning red but stopped, at least. It never bled, though.
I’ve never had, let alone seen anything like that before. I tried to “Google it” but I’m pretty sure any of the pics I came across didn’t match whatever I had.
I’ve only ever played Grand Theft Auto (the first one). Didn’t like it and never went back to that franchise. I know the later ones (after 2) were dramatically different, but I’m stubborn.
