Last year, I planted over a hundred daffodils and a hundred tulips all around my garden. My flowers are starting to emerge and winter appears to be ending. I've missed the bees; I can't wait to see them again.
 
Sick as a fuckin' DOG and working off of about 6 hours of collective sleep over the last two days. I wanna go home so bad but, alas, wage slavery demands my participation. I haven't been able to breathe out of my nose for ten hours :suffering:
 
My girlfriend dislocated her tailbone when she slipped on ice, during the same day I dislocated my lower right leg, my leg is fine now but my girlfriend has to go to the hospital, they told her it wasn't bad enough to have to reset it but she would need painkillers so they gave her a scrip but the scrip is for someone that was a complete stranger and the injury was bad enough she has to use a bucket when she shits, fuck January. It's the worst month.

I love reading this, makes me remember the times when i was at a one digit age, had a NES and my mom got invested in some games more than i did.

While i didn't dislocate mine i once slipped on leaves going down the stairs to the subway many, many years ago and fell directly on my tailbone, the pain was excruciating for months on end. I needed to get a hemorrhoid pillow to be able to sit somewhat comfortably on chairs and shit. Didn't even have the excuse of being drunk while it happened, just lost grip and tripped.

I have no real thread tax, things are fine apart from general back pain, got my orthopedician appointment tomorrow to, hopefully, find out what exactly is wrong with my back and that's it.

Whole-heartedly agree. At the risk of sounding too reddit/Twitter, why is it still January? Every year January seemingly goes on forever.

Flowers?? In January?? :'( I've got months before daffs even start poking up leaves.

However, I'll say I planted daffs 15 years ago in a naturalized way (woodland, not planting beds), and they continue to thrive. They make me happy every Spring.
 
Something was in the air today, people were acting 'off' and more bizarre than usual. My caffeine kicked in really late, too, so on top of everyone acting weird so did I.
 
How is everyone else in the massive winter storm effected area doing? They actually did a pretty good job here in SW Ohio getting the main roads cleared and it's been just sunny and warm enough to heat things up to melt some of the ice and snow. However, it seems like there's a lot of people on the roads who just aren't taking the cold seriously. We were at or just below 0f this morning (-18c for the Euros), and there were three multicar accidents in a two or three mile stretch of highway. Looked like people assuming the roads were fine because they looked clear and changing multiple lanes at once and misjudging speeds and such. Lots of broken downs and cars in snow on the side of the road too, new ones not old ones. It's probably the worst I've seen it after a snow storm, like everyone forgot how to handle potentially bad roads. We've got a week until we're above freezing again and I'm tired of this shit already.
 
I'm probably feeling better after handling that brief period of stress. Only going to work three days this work week so that's a plus.

My bank fucking scared me yesterday with withdrawing earlier than I anticipated. I pulled a PAL loan and from what I was told at face value when I got it, was that this was a per-paycheck withdrawal kind of loan. Everytime a paycheck hits, a withdrawal incurs to satisfy the total amount due by the month of that loan. Well it withdrew early, 4 hours before the paycheck came so it threw me into a loop. So now I was both pissed and worrying because the paycheck hasn't came yet, what the fuck is going to happen now?

Managed to get a hold of a bank agent, to talk to them of what happened. They assured me that even if the paycheck came, what I had in both my checking and savings combined would satisfy the payment amount due. The next withdrawal comes in a couple weeks. I guess that's cool and all except the inconsistency of information I've just witnessed before my eyes about how withdrawals were supposed to happen. Because I did ask an agent once "if I pay a due balance before a paycheck hits, would it bump the due date to the next withdrawal?" to which I was told "No, a withdrawal would still happen once your paycheck comes into your checking account." So what the fuck was that shit about yesterday morning over, guys?

I can't wait to pay this PAL loan off, I hate it, narrows my leftover finances. I hate it more now knowing my bank's agents can't even get their information right on what I signed up for.
 
Stayed up all night coding for fun and listening to Monstercat CDs. Lettin' that stress roll right off me.
 
My new upstairs neighbour is a young man, and I suspect he's a smoker because I frequently smell cigarette smoke in my home. It gives me a headache.
I'm of half a mind to ask my landlords, my parents, if they can do something about it because I can't deal with smoke induced headaches at least once a day for who knows how long this kid'll live here. And he moved in barely a month ago.

Human interaction is so awkward. I'm awkward.

For days I have been running a steady drip from my shower head to prevent the pipes from freezing. The constant sound is starting to get to me and it feels like some kind of Chinese water torture. I'm hesitant to shut the bathroom door in case for whatever reason the drip stops and I don't catch it.

Do you have an old scarf or long strip of fabric that you don't want anymore? As an autist, dripping water drives me batshit, and I learnt that if you have a long piece of material properly tied around a dripping anything, the water will slide relatively quietly into the material instead of hitting a hard surface with a slash. I don't know if this would be the best solution for your situation, but it may be worth a try.

Totally unnecessary update: I have been prescribed Paxlovid, and now my mouth tastes like oily nickels. My sanity is being tested, buckaroos 🤠
 
For the first time in probably 4 years I hung out with a new friend. Just got some beer and ate some sushi but was fun. Already got plans to see a tribute band 2 weeks from now.
 
The place I'm at has become an insane asylum and every time I leave my house I have to deal with: sexual harassment, people on drugs, crazies, crazies with mental illness on drugs, drug dealers, Jeets, and goat-fucking cousin rapers bugging me.
Yesterday was stellar, there was a Schizophrenic walking down the street in what I would say are in football print pjs. I wanted to walk ahead of him, so I took a route that was beside but well away from him. When we pass him, he starts yelling about mind control and the 70s so Im not making eye contact. When I am passing him I hear YOU'RE GOING TO BURN so I walked as quickly as I could.

Husband accidently misgendered two thems and didn't even notice. We were at a store and the sales clerk who helped us was a antifa type, unwashed, blue-hair, tragic piercings and a big bold-letter tattoo on her throat.
We go pay and the second clerk is this short-round woman with a tragic comb over, round glasses, a nose piercing and I noticed that she was a they/them.
The second clerk asked the usual question of: which which sales clerk helped you and husband points to the first clerk and said "she did." :story:
The second clerk tried to say, "OK, 'they' helped you" but he didn't even noticed and they both looked so butthurt.
I mentioned it to husband later and he was completely surprised and hadn't even noticed. :lit::lol:

On this new medication I've finally gained 4lbs and retaining nourishment. Contrast that to a couple years ago at my sickest and I was 116lbs with a BMI of 17.6 and people would IRL concern troll saying that hurrdurr just eat something. *yawn*

The temp got her last day tomorrow. She was offered a more exciting job closer to my home, but it's also temporary so I can't be envious. My somewhat-superior noticed the bitch who belittles me constantly which makes 3 people who by proximity alone has pulled me aside to tell me that they don't appreciate what a cunt she's being. Except now it's someone with actual power, and it has been forwarded to our actual boss who has already once told her to back off her coworkers apparently. We'll see how it goes. At least I've been told I literally won't be fired.

I don't know why I'm so obsessed with money or lack thereof. I don't spend any. I've got my students debts paid off. I make decent money compared to my parents. I don't want kids specifically nor do I have issues renting because I know a broken pipe in a home will wreck 3 paychecks anyway. I should be okay just, being.

I envy those with physical hobbies. Like, going to a local soccer club and knowing everyone there is a potential friend. You like games, you join a Discord and it's all foreigners who're either not playing the game or just there for the porn. At least by logging into WoW, heavens forbid join a native guild, you were surrounded by peers.
 
i dont know why i feel this way, but..i feel like i have lost any real passion or motivation for anything these days. maybe its from all the stress of my kid being so sick, or everyone pissing me off all the time..i just feel so apathetic.
i spend almost all of my time reading, playing video games, listening to music, driving, or being a shitstarter. and i used to have a real passion for all of that at least, but now? im just here. it sucks. i just feel like im existing, and nothing else anymore. maybe its because im so old now that its pretty much over at this point, but whatever it is, i dont like this feeling at all.
