How Was Your Day Thread V5

I've finally moved into my 1st Apartment!!

Spoiler

Well, kinda moved. I'm living here and very slowly bringing things over from my moms, because movers are not available until late August. I have been Adulting very hard the past 2 weeks though, I've ordered and built everything I currently have in my living room, I've ordered my bedroom furniture and am currently sleeping on an Air mattress until it comes in. With some organizers, my kitchen is almost all washed, put away and not messy. I just set up my Internet with some difficulty since I didn't know which one was a coax cable but I figured it out. and the clothes I've brung over are all almost put away in my closet.

Of course without internet I missed the first days of the BM so I'm getting what I can now.
I'll be getting my second vaccine shot in a couple of days, so I'll be fully vaccinated

I feel so accomplished actually having goals to get things done, rather than just sitting around binging tv and playing games.

I'm starting to get a little fed up with my rheumatologist. I went and got x-rays of my lower spine (I was also supposed to get my hips x-rayed but they filled the order wrong) and they haven't called about the results. At first it was on the radiologist's end as they forgot to send the results. I called the rheumatologist and they said they would contact the imaging place and then call me later. It's been 5 business days now and I've still heard nothing. And I know it should only take like 5 minutes for the radiologist to send the results; i can see the results on their patient portal! I need the rheumatologist to go over those results and reorder the hip x-rays, but all they seem to do is slack off on their end. I'm getting really impatient.

And then there's the bizarre biopsy that they want me to get to confirm that I have fibromyalgia. Me, my mom, AND my PC doc have never heard of this procedure. IDK why she wants this biopsy done when I have all the markers for fibro. It even says on my health chart that fibromyalgia is active, yet I haven't been given anything to relieve my symptoms, which can be utterly debilitating on the worst of days. I'm in a lot of pain and they've done nothing to help. I feel like I'm running in circles at this point. I'm tempted to cut my losses and go somewhere else...

Edit: And now the wifi on my pc is broken! i am praying to God i don't have to replace the tower. I don't want to pull from my savings again when I'm trying to get a dog ugggghhhh.....

Turned in my test for a company I applied for.

Fingers crossed, I really want to work on this project that they're getting.

The academy I'm doing has their head of lighting attending our dailies on Friday..which is awesome, but I've hardly had a moment to do a thing on my assignment this week with work and that test taking up my time. I've legit been doing nothing but work/school/test for the past 3 days. Looks like I'm going to be on overdrive for the next couple days as well.

As for work, I've got a really long sequence with some complicated paint outs that is quite frustrating. Really hoping I can get it done in time.

AP scores were released… I did not pass Stats
honestly not even sure what my reaction should be, the entire class was a mess from start to finish. Was supposed to have an in-person teacher, but the school “couldn’t hire anyone” (later heard they had candidates who they didn’t even respond to) so I ended up being shoved into an online class with lots of errors, and the cherry on top was an unresponsive teacher. This is not to say I was not to blame— math is easily far and away my worst subject, I was bound to fail a class eventually. It’s just now I’ve spent hours, an entire semester of stress and long nights, on this class with absolutely nothing to show for it; that’s what I’m really hung up on

On a slightly brighter note, I passed my three other classes (although tbh I though I did better than a 3 in APUSH, darn), ended with a 4 in APES, and I actually got a 5 in AP Lang & Comp, which is my favorite subject! I’ll survive

thanks for letting me rant

Heads up; some really sick and twisted information has come out about the goings on at Blizzard/Activision. All the warnings apply for online gaming right now. Holy.... these people need to be arrested and Warcraft and Call of Duty servers (to name just 2 affected titles) burned. The games are not worth this.

Link to the lawsuit below.
Seriously, all the trigger warnings.

Ubisoft got in some hot water last year over the same kind of allegations, and they made little effort to make their employees feel safer. Hopefully they're next on the lawsuit train.

and they have the nerve to release a statement denying everything— not surprising but still so disgusting that they’re trying to defend their position and just continue on as if nothing’s wrong

It reeks of the standard "we've investigated ourselves and found ourselves innocent."

I heard someone say HR is more for protecting the business rather than protecting its employees, and I think it is all the more true in this case. What those people *had* to endure is absolutely sickening...

I got an iPad as a Christmas/birthday gift this year (it came early in the mail today ). I'm so out of touch with Apple that it took me 5 whole minutes to figure out which app icon was Safari lol!

Never thought I'd see people complaining about collab characters in a gacha game yet here we are
