The last two times I got sick with just a slight fever and cough my doctor ordered a chest x-ray against my wishes. My boyfriend had Pneumonia at both of those times that was so bad he nearly needed to be hospitalized- but still.... I didn’t and only went to the doctor on precaution rather than in actual need and…

...and as you curse yourself for being so clumsy, Shigeru Miyamoto will bend down to help you. Sheepishly, you thank him, not making eye contact. As you try to grab the last book, his hand lands on top of yours. You look up at him, finally. His eyes are warm, his smile welcoming. After 90 minutes of comic…

In the last year I read the entire 8 book series 3 times and rewatched the show another 3 times (considering another rewatch before next season airs)—- I also check the author’s twitter and official page on a daily basis because she’s been posting excerpts from the next book every now and then. I think I read like 5-6…

I fucking hate trucks.
I used to be apathetic about this issue, but after moving to Texas where everyone has a truck or giant van of some sort I just can’t stand them.
Most parking lots (especially garages) are not made to accommodate them- either half your car is sticking out into the road, or your truck is so wide…

Wait.... that’s not an apology.
She neither apologized nor made a statement that her comment was incorrect.

What she said is she is a victim of rape herself and therefore can’t be a bad guy, she got caught by the NYT being stupid- but they’re the ones who poorly characterized her remarks and made her look bad- she’s…

Strategy #5- Be a moderator

On the social forum I was most active on during my most active internet years I was a forum mod. Not only did people not harass me, but I got to stop jerks from harassing other people too. It was pretty nice.

The even better part was- when I started- I thought It would be stressful having to…

“... but in reality I looked like a fancy pirate.”

That sounds awesome!
Who doesn’t want to look like a fancy pirate?

My shopping habits totally match your’s though.
Last fall I cleared out my closet though and about 1/3 of my clothes were in the category of “Never Worn with Tags still on” and “Worn Once.” I at that…

I used to be kind of skeptical about people that claimed they had glucose allergies until I met someone who had suffered from it intensely. We had just made it through a 6 month training program for a new job together and we were being treated by our new manager at a relatively nice restaurant. Even though the food…

On a slightly related note.... on the mobile game Final Fantasy Bravely Exvius they are doing a FFXII special mission at this time with some FFXII characters you can pull at random to add to your team. I don’t spend money on the game and just do the free daily pull..... I have like 8 fucking Vaans.... I HATE YOU…

Just today I went with my boyfriend to his appointment with a nutritionist since I’m the only one that knows how to cook in my house. She gave probably the best weight loss advice I’ve ever heard: “You know you’re on a good diet when you’re bored out of your mind.”
Basically if your weight loss regimen is “exciting”…

Forget social media.

I always loved the kids who somehow got away with playing video games throughout the entire class. In my Anthropology class the kid in front of me always ended up doing WoW raids throughout the entire lesson. I couldn’t entirely blame him... the class was boring and easy- a lethal combination for…

I remember DARE.
When I was in 5th grade we had an officer come to our class that was supposed to come weekly for 2 months to talk about drugs and crap. He came once.... he never came back because apparently he was caught doing drugs and got fired literally a few days later.

The teacher came to the front of the room…

I grew up on an old farm farm with a lot of old barns and sheds not in active regular use—- Snakes typically avoid building where humans regularly are moving around making noise (The house) unless there are extenuating circumstances—- but LOOOOVE tiny little sheds and barns that people aren’t in most of the time where…

Screw Ash.... Misty was my hero growing up.
I made my entire team water type pokemon in her honor!
I used to play make-believe pokemon with friends and I was always Misty.

Ash sucks, and when Misty left I stopped watching... it was like they murdered the one character I cared about.

I played/watched my brother play this when it first came out.
I hated the battle system, was bored out of my mind with the story, and was grateful when it was all finally over.

As an adult, I watched my boyfriend play through it a while back and played a little bit—- it was still pretty terrible, but better than my…

Yeah.... this seems pretty messed up.

During my 4 years of highschool I had one 5 minute meeting with my guidance counselor who asked if I wanted to go to college- and that was it. No guidance on how to get there, no resources on the steps I needed to take... just a yes/no question and that was it.

I spent the weekend Marathoning the last two seasons of Supernatural, and Today I slept in, went to Denny’s for brunch, saw Alien Covenant for $2 at a local cheap movie theater that was practically empty, and played Tennis for a workout since it was a lovely day. I guess most people are out watching fireworks right…

Well.... we had an interesting mix in my therapy group..
Literally 1/2 of the people were active duty military suffering PTSD—— they REALLY didn’t like her—- because for them to finally open up and decide to get help and go against the military thinking of “Man Up,” then to be told they could just get over it didn’t…

I went to group therapy for a while- and the therapists were great for the most part,

One outside therapist came in from time to time though believed that “Mental Illness is a choice- you are choosing to feel bad- and you will get better when you chose to feel better- the medication is just a placebo. If you’re not…

Lol... no he doesn’t.

I didn’t even know that hair pulling was a thing till I went home and looked it up.
