Spent the day with my brother who has Stage 4 Metastic Melanoma at the hospital. It was a lot of fun.

It's the second week of college, 45 minute commute both ways, four days a week. I haven't spoken to a single person and nobody's spoken to me. I feel lonely. I tore a good shirt throwing a sick fastball today. The only person I've made a connection with in nearly a year turned out to be engaged. But I haven't felt as good as I do now in a long time.

I'm about to go on vacation and whenever I see a machine I have to suppress the urge to purchase another. I think being this close to getting away from work is making me want to get away forever. I actually won $1 for the first time. So I have $1 up, $6 down. Oh noes!

Freakbox posted:Its a 700$ dishwasher. I will fix it- I just need time. I mean if its 6 months then it should be under it's 1 year limited warranty that usually comes standards with these things. I don't personally trust dishwashers that much anyways seeing as every single one I've ever dealt with has either worked for less than 6 months or resulted in very poorly washed dishes.

I woke up and ate my standard oatmeal + fruit, then I went to class where I chatted with the cute blonde who sits behind me. I answered some questions the professor asked hopefully without seemingly like a know-it-all, and then I came home and cooked myself some bacon and eggs. I looked up how much protein in-take I was getting from the eggs and realized I need to double the amount I'm eating from 3 a day to at least 6 (6 grams per egg, I want to reach about 50 g protein/day). Also contemplating getting more ground turkey for some onion/turkey burgs. I eat the patties plain.

Rambling Robot posted:I've never, ever used a dishwasher. I used a dishwasher once, never again. They take forever & are so loud. Also, yeah, all my dishes got gold leaf on them, not trusting a dishwasher with those. My cat is high on morphine and he's been sitting in a box staring at us with his mouth hanging open for like 40 minutes. His eyes are like saucers and he's drooling a little. So I guess it's doing what it's supposed to?

I don't personally trust dishwashers that much anyways seeing as every single one I've ever dealt with has either worked for less than 6 months or resulted in very poorly washed dishes. It is under warranty- thank you! I looked that up because of you. If I can't fix it without taking it apart, I'll call the people and have them come out. My last dishwasher worked for over 15 years and came with the house when I inherited it.  loving new technology breaking more often than old tech uuugh. Waltzing Along posted:I wish I was your neighbor. It's kinda funny in the end. I'm a lesbian renting out a house to two gay men.  The poor guy was just really startled; i never really understood why I had to cover up when men don't have to, so sometimes I just wander out to get the mail or take out the trash shirtless, and inevitably startle the one dogwalker out at like, 5 in the morning. ((I would illustrate it with a funny smiley-story, but surprisingly SA doesn't have any breast emoticons. How weird.  ))Anyway- I think the citric acid helped. I'm pretty sure the doodleflop that fills the tubthing with water was blocked by minerals and hoojidoo, so the citric acid ate it up and now it seems to be woosh-wooshing again. After this load I'll put the last two citric acid tablets in without the dishes (you can only use one with dishes in there) and let it run an extra-hot sanitize cycle. I just have cheap white dishes, anyway; I have a tactile and auditory sensory processing disorder (comes with the territory of actual, non-internet-autism, sometimes), so I'm...um...not very coordinated at all. I flinch, trip, stumble, drop things, and gently caress up distances occasionally. All of my dishes are white so I can just buy a new generic white dish every time I break one, which is about once or twice a month.

I've been arriving to school extra early. We are required to arrive 30 minutes before school starts. I've been getting here an hour early. It's given me plenty of time to get set up and ready, without rushing around. Today was a day that I sent my students off to the university for training (we do this every year), and I spent the time working out our new software. We have some amazing new programs that allow us to do some amazing things, but we need to learn how to make them do these amazing things. So today was me sitting on my rear end working through all the software. Very productive. Rather relaxing. But I learned that I need a better chair if I'm going to sit a lot...

my day was pretty crappy, op. I recently learned I'm being laid off from work, so I've been stressed out looking for new jobs and contemplating my career direction. Also I'm sick right now. Also we had like two power outages at work today, which led to me sitting in hot dark office for half the day. But thanks for posting this thread, I enjoy being able to vent

No. That is a sewing machine, I think.  ((PS- it's called the cryhole because of how easily it can gently caress up the entire machine and make you cry if you don't do something right.))

Copley Depot posted:Yes I think my field is in decent demand (microbiology/biofuels) and I have a graduate degree. It's just about finding a company that treats you as more than a number on the bottom line. Sadly, this is the reality of American corporate life. Have you considered teaching?

Like my old Singer bobbin thing was on the side & had like pieces that came out & went around the bobbin & you had to pull the thread through a thing & then align it correctly in the machine & it was always loving poo poo up but the Brother swaps bobbins in under 5 seconds with no fuss. Also, has an auto threader that I am now entirely dependent on. Oh & it doesn't throw stitches like my Singer did loving constantly either.

I have a singer professional from the early 90's and a 5 string Serger. Both of them are a little bit fussy, but these things were 300 and 400-500* dollars respectively in the 1990s so I'm not gonna give them up after getting them for free from my mom. They just get pissy sometimes about string. But I don't mind.((the serger might have cost more- I'm not sure. It was hella expensive back then.))

I finally got around to finishing 1984, it was a good read. Roof is getting repaired from damages during the winter, had a good time listening to banging for 6 or so hours. Someone I know flipped poo poo about JonTron or whatever debacle related to him and I just kept telling them I didn't care and they wouldn't shut up. My day started off so good too.
