I am uhh...pretty well known for showin' some crack at work. I can't help it - I got a booty!!!! I've started wearing khaki pants with a belt and a scrub top now!
 
My leg joints randomly start hurting every few days. My hips and knees mostly. It doesn't even take anything to cause it. I just walk and my hip starts hurting for five minutes and then it goes away. Just like that. We think it's because I have scoliosis and that it effects my joints. Usually it doesn't really bother me because it doesn't take long. But my right knee has been hurting for three days straight now with no break. I'm wearing a brace now and hope that the support will help it a bit. But man, it's annoying. Especially when that strong pit mix at the end of the leash wants to run. I can't hold her because my knee will just give way and I fall. Ugh.

I have chronic knee problems. You have my sympathies. It really is a pain. The orthopedic surgeon I saw last week asked me if I could stop lifting, kneeling, and squatting. I told her that is not possible.

I hope your knee stops hurting soon. You definitely have my sympathies.

Thanks. 🙂

Usually it really doesn't bother me that much, because I just wait 5 minutes and it goes away. But it sucks now having to go up and down the stairs with a really excitable dog. :laugh:

And as for the scrubs comment... Rule #1: Don't wear embarrassing underwear with scrubs. I think we've all seen some coworkers with wild underwear, and some of us might *be* the coworker with wild underwear. :laugh:

So apparently my cat really appreciated the SQ fluids this afternoon. She brought be a mouse/rat (going to say it is a young rat) as a gift. Came into my room meowing and sounded odd. She had the mouse/rat scruffed. I told her to take it out so she brings it to the garage. I follow her outside and she would not drop it! I go back into the house and shut my bedroom door. She came back with it! Lets it go and it is ALIVE (luckily appeared uninjured) and I had to catch it. Ugh.

My cat is mean. She then tried to help me catch it. :uhno: I mean I appreciate the sentiment behind the gift, but honestly rats freak me out a little bit.

We were awaken a few weeks ago at 5 am by a really weird noise. The BF turned on his cell phone light and we saw my cat knawing off the head of a mouse. I mean crunching it to bits with the creepiest excorcist face on. Her eyes were rolling around and she was just in a creepy transe. I was insanly freaked out and needless to say, did NOT go back to sleep! Not because of the mouse, but because of the creepy look in her eyes :scared:

My dog has a torpedo tongue and manages to sneak it in my mouth EVERY TIME 😡. I mean, the thing is 18 inches long and has the stealth of a power ranger (the green one).
But in all reality this is a half rave bc who doesn't love a boxer tongue? 😍

Edit: So I just realized how dirty the second sentence of this could be taken 😉

Bahahahahaha!!!

Second:
Had a wonderful day at the lake with my awesome dog, but despite multiple applications of SPF 50 I have an AWFUL sunburn. My skin is so frggin fair it just burns so quickly. Now I look like a lobster. (And STUPID STUPID STUPID bathing suits!!! The very bottom of my.... ahem.... buttcheeks are burned....)
 
Ok I don't mean to sound like a weenie but as time passes my sunburn is getting worse. I'm lying in bed at 3am aching everywhere and I'm getting pretty nauseous. This is the worst it has been in a very long time.

Mur. I'm finally feeling this stupid break up. Can't believe he let it drag on so long after he realized he wanted to break up. And can't believe he let me spend all the money to go see him. He probably would have let it go on longer if it weren't for him being interested in someone else. I feel like such an idiot, there I was talking about our future together and he just let me go on about it knowing it was going to end. You would think that after 3 years he could at least have the balls to tell me when it was over. Not 4 months after the fact...

I'm only being impatient because we were told the list was finalized a week ago and just had to be sent out. :nod:

Sometimes they can be horrible. Apparently after our breakup, my ex told people he never wanted a gf, he just wanted to play with someone. Told everyone I'm a *****, bitch, etc. He even kept it up after I got together with my new bf 🙂love🙂 and even called me those things in front of him. Well, that is, until his face got all swollen and he had a black eye. Not sure how that happened.. 🙄 Jk, don't talk bad about a Mexican's gf right in front of him, especially if you all are drinking. 😎
 
The closer you drive to the back of my car, the slower I will drive. 35 mph speed limit does not mean that I must drive 35-40 mph. I will slow down to 34 mph, then 30 mph, then settle at 25 mph if you won't get off my #&$@ing tail. Easy solution? SLOW DOWN.

This is called "self-preservation."

If you wouldn't walk around with a loaded gun and the safety off, then don't tailgate me on a winding country road. Deer and foxes pop out of the bushes all the time. Kids on horses fly up and down the side of the road. I have no desire to choose between slamming my brakes and getting rear-ended and not slamming brakes and hitting an obstacle.

So, get off my $#&!ing tail!

You do realize that this now makes the fast driver no longer guilty of speeding and you guilty of impeding traffic. I understand when you see the jackass that is going 20+ over the speed limit and it is annoying but it is much better to just get out of their way and let them dig their own grave than it is for you to impede traffic and possibly get yourself a ticket.

🙁 men are jerks. You'll find someone way better who will be just as excited and committed to your future together! 😍
 
I'm waiting for SOV or someone to come on and complain about the generalization. That's why I didn't say all men. Hahaha

He is on vaycay in Costa Rica with his lovely wife. So I don't know if he'll be in here complaining, but I suppose he's still proving you wrong in a more subtle way. 😉

No really. I agree with him. Generalizations barely are any good.
 
Dear people who set up my housing, it is REALLY difficult for me to feed myself when I can't figure out how to work the bloody Irish oven! Grrr!

I have chicken and vegetables ready to go in the oven but the stupid machine won't heat up. And I can't even find the manual online or ANYTHING!

Edit: I called the office in charge of my housing. They were unhelpful. I still can't make dinner. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

Did you turn on the switch on the wall? Most likely there is a switch on the wall - that needs to be turned on - kind of like a light switch - you don't turn that on and the oven won't heat up.

Maybe? Or devyn's suggestion, she's obviously got more first hand experience. ;p
 
My Spanish teacher forgot to show up to my final. I emailed her basically saying wtf? She will be there in two hours, she says. I get to wait an extra 2 hours for my lazy teacher to grace us with her presence. Who are these people?! ugh. Rant over.

I let some jerk pass because he simply had to drive 30mph faster than the speed limit and I just wasn't speeding fast enough for him. I saw him pulled over 15 minutes later by a cop. hahaha
 
Thanks for the suggestions. One of my housemates looked at it (I think she had been using the oven earlier, so she ought to know how it works) and couldn't get it to heat up either, so we're figuring it's broken. Hopefully we can make them fix it tomorrow.

I ended up improvising ways to cook everything on the stove. Dirtied way too many dishes doing it, but dangit I made dinner!

Well if you need help with anything let me know! Or if you want to meet for drinks at the pub sometime... I have been in Dublin for almost a year now, so I am getting the hang of it. :laugh:

Try a product called Badger Bali Balm, it works way better than aloe. My husband is a red head, and he swears by it.
Sorry about the burning🙁
 
I volunteered to transfer a dog between rescues today. I drove a total of 95 miles and the entire inside of my truck is now covered in vomit and smeared feces. :smack:
He is a very handsome boy though 😀
