How Was Your Day Thread V5

Speaking of doctors, there's this lady who runs the transplant branch of the hospital I go to, I guess? She's some kind of coordinator, I think? I dunno. Either way, she is one of the most condescending and rude people I've ever had the displeasure of working with. And I work in retail. Anyway, It's very hard for me to get to that particular hospital because I can't drive (driver's anxiety. UGH) so I asked her if I could be transferred somewhere else and she said yes. She was supposed to send paperwork my way, but we never got it. I REALLY want to avoid talking to her, because talking on the phone is hard enough as is, I don't need someone treating me like that.

I really hope I can switch hospitals, It's not just that lady but the hospital itself is in a really busy area and it feels like the doctors are in a hurry and impatient. If you can't tell, I'm a very anxious person and I NEED to be able to sit down and talk to my doctor about things without feeling rushed.

I'm sorry if this is whiny, I just needed it off my chest.

Thank you for the suggestion! Unfortunately I've tried that method for capsules already. I'm not really sure why I have difficulties with pills and capsules, but they never make it past my mouth. :c

@Dancingstar
I have anxiety when speaking to people so I get anxiety from trying to make appointments on my own. You should contact her though and get it done. It's not pleasant, but once you transfer you don't have to worry about her anymore. I hope you find a doctor who can listen to you without rushing you!

On a seperate note. I just called the Dental office today. The dentist I was asking for isn't currently in, but they're going to email him and get back to me asap. I hope there's a big possibility that I can get my abcsess 'fixed' today and that they can prescribe me alternative antibiotics.

Not sure if it'll help, but I can't swallow pills the 'normal' way. I literally shove it down my throat. Awkward at first, but with some practice I can just pop it down my throat, then I chug some water to wash it the rest of the way down. It's literally pinch the pill between thumb and forefinger, shove as far into your mouth as you can, and flick it down your throat.

Soch that just sounds awkward and uncomfortable

I find if I stick the pill in a spoonful of yogurt (or something of a similar consistency) it's easier to swallow.

I love going back through old documents and finding nonsense I don't even remember writing. I just came across an old brainstorming file from several years back, and one of the ideas is just "space zombies."

Haha, I love coming across stuff like that. I'm always amused (and kinda irritated at the same time) when I find old story plans where I spew some vague nonsense and then say something like, "I don't feel like explaining it in detail right now, I know what I'm talking about!"
But no
I don't know what I'm talking about

I've gotten better at writing my plot ideas down in detail since I get so tired of not understanding my own ramblings, lol.

Love horse figurines(non-cartoony ones anyway) and found some neat ones at a dollar store. I have no idea what they're made of - they somehow manage to feel like both clay and PVC at the same time. She thinks they're crappy because of how cheap they were, but they're very well colored, solid, mostly proportionate, and in the parts where they're not anatomically correct, the style is interesting to look at. They have very long, antelope-like faces, more like the synthetoceras lineart than those of horses. The one thing that bugs me is that they have literally no chests - there's the neck, then the shoulders, and then just nothing - like a butt-crack in the front - even more silly, the "cheeks" don't touch. They have gaping buttcheeks where their chests should be. I think someday I'm going to get ahold of some clay and paint and remedy that...

I've known about a week that my friend has been died. But how long does it take to be able to do things I did before she died?

I have depression and I was in such condition that I was able to sit at my computer. Then *wham* back to bed. Life sucks. And death too.

I'm so sorry. I lost my best friend about five years ago, unexpectedly, and it's never stopped hurting. I think about her every single day. But I can laugh about the things we did now, at least. Still, sometimes I pick up the phone to call her and it's like learning that she has died all over again because sometimes I forget. You just don't ever expect them to be gone. She was my friend for my entire life - we grew up together. I don't think I'll ever get over it but you find ways to cope. I found making a scrapbook of our photos and memories together to be therapeutic. I hope you can find peace.

Thank you for your message. I knew that she dies. She had the same cancer than I had(hopefully had). The two differences were that her cancer had tumors and chemo didn't work. -.- Luckily, life goes on, even though it feels I would like to stop it somehow and say: "World, wait for me to recover!"

If you notice someone selling something waaaaay under priced, and someone else buying it, but not saying anything to the seller about how under priced it is, is that something that we can/should report?

Cause I know there's always the possibility that the buyer will indeed let the seller know via PM or send the creature's actual worth in the trade, so that's what makes it a little iffy as to if it's something that should be brought up to a mod or not, not to mention maybe the seller doesn't really care that they're getting so much less for a creature worth so much more.

I dunno, it seems kinda like a weird situation; like my first instinct was to report it, but then I started thinking over it and decided not to yet. Paint me confused.
