What's Bothering You?

Thankfully it doesn't seem like anything serious, and she's generally acting like herself as usual, but I think my cat is having some stomach issues. At the very least, she might be a bit constipated. I picked up a little pureed pumpkin for her that hopefully helps move things along, since we've given it to her before and she likes it.
 
Misty update: She is likely coming home tonight or tomorrow. The tech called and said Misty’s been eating, walking, responding to chin-scratches, etc. Her blood pressure was a bit high, too, so she’s taking meds for that in addition to her usual thyroid pills.
This was a relief to hear! Finn will also be happy to see his sister.
glad to hear your kitty is doing well 🥺. my pup, also a girl, who also has a brother, was in the pet hospital as well last week.
 
no matter what happens, i love you Blitz.
i will always love you.

His heart stopped beating today.

It was a difficult decision but it was all for the better. He body has finally caught up to his age and we couldn't handle seeing him in any more pain. I don't want to detail it anymore because it's excruciating and not really something I'd like to remember him by.

He went peacefully at the vet. I gave him lots of forehead kisses to bring with him on the way to heaven. I was gently rubbing his head and holding his hands as he finally went. I said I'd be strong but the tears just kept coming.

Thank you Blitz for the 14 years. You've seen me graduate not once, not twice, but four times. Four! And you had just enough strength to wait for me to finish my boards exam and come home to you. Even until your last moments you were looking out for me.

My boyfriend gave me a bouquet of flowers right after my boards exam. I placed the same bouquet on his death bed today as a thank you for all the years he's been with me.

Good night, Blitz. Rest well and eat lots of merienda when you're up there. I'll see you again my sweetest baby boy. 🐶💕✨

I hate when I bleed from dry skin, then it becomes a pain to clean up. This time it was my heel, and I didn't notice until I got blood all over my bedding and kitchen flooring. Spent a good hour cleaning it up, now I can't get back to sleep.
 
just a minor bother, but when I'm on my desktop computer and I'm signed in on youtube, it keeps giving me a popup that says "Ad blockers violate terms of service" and it won't let me watch the video. I do have an ad blocker (UBlock), but I still get the popup even when the ad blocker is turned off and youtube is whitelisted. the only way I can get it to work is if I clear cookies and site data. if I sign in again, it'll just give me the popup. it's pretty annoying.

I've tried reporting the issue, but it gives me an error every time.

but hey, if the ad blocker keeps working while I'm signed out, then I guess I'll remain signed out on my desktop.
 
I wish my co-workers would just stop discussing politics in the lounge so it doesn’t put me in a sour mood later on. I hate pretty much everything they complain about as well, but it just drags down my mood every time.
And my boss wonders why I’m always so cranky…

A lot of political stuff gets discussed in this thread too, which is why I typically don’t read the posts as often as I’d like to. Maybe I’ve become super sensitive about it all, but I’m simply so done of hearing 99.9% negative crap come out of political discussions.

im... extremely annoyed other people keep asking me when the results are coming out. do i look like i know??? theres no set sched for it and no one but the examiners know lmao so why ask me. i already told my friend i dont want to talk about it because im uncomfortable and it doesnt help, and im upset he brought it up AGAIN just now. i know he's means well but i wish he'd respect my own boundaries as well after i told him off before already.
 
Tips jar update: I got caught. To rub salt in the wound, I HAD TO GIVE ALL OF THE MONEY BACK.
I’m 7 bucks in the hole. I thankfully didn’t get fired, but I had a long talk with my boss. He wasn’t happy about it. Oh well. So much for that. Now I gotta order an ocarina and play it on the streets for money. Good times (sarcasm).

Money situation: Down in a hole and I don’t know if I can be saved. Sing my heart out decorated like a grave.
Down in a hole. Feeling so small.
Down in a hole. Out of control.
I’d like to fly. But my wings are bent. (I want easy ways to make money. But there isn’t. I can’t get a normal high paying job until after college.)
 
I'm so tired today 🥲 I have to finish reading a bunch of articles, and find articles for my paper, and then write said paper by Sunday night. my surgery has made this a lot more difficult than it needs to be. last time a review paper was due a few weeks ago, I caught the flu. this time I'm recovering from major surgery. it just doesn't end. now I'm wondering what's about to hold me back when I have to write my final paper at the end of the class.

I was awake and at it basically nonstop yesterday from 5:30am til about 9pm. I kinda wish I hadn't done that. I'm so tired today 😭 I'm also overstimulated and I think my headache from yesterday carried over into today. I just want to lie down and not even think about reading or writing or anything.

also a minor bother, but I have a package at the post office that's gonna be delivered tomorrow and I wish I could just get it today. like it's already there. I really need to get a PO Box honestly.
edit again: by some odd chance it was delivered today, so I'm a somewhat happier Bug 💜

I slept for like 10 hours last night and I feel like I need a nap. I just wish it wasn't so uncomfortable/awkward for me to lie down right now...


edit:
I went from being stressed to sad to... just fuming for some reason? like, actually angry. I want to cry 😭 I think I really, really need a nap.

I literally have a review paper due on Sunday night, and for the love of **** I CANNOT get myself to do anything for it. I need to find research articles to cite for my paper, and they have to be on the same topic that I chose for my first paper a few weeks ago, so they might be a little tricky to find. I took my ADHD med, and I've got nothing. it's 7:30pm, I have been sitting here in my briefs for about an hour and a half, doing nothing. I don't think any motivation is coming out of me this evening. I think at this point, it's less of a focus issue, and more of a "I'm completely exhausted and my body is forcing me to take a rest today" issue. if my body is telling me something, I should probably listen.

it sucks because I need as much time as I can get to work on this. but I seriously, seriously cannot get myself to do any kind of research this evening. maybe I could just set up the review paper document and read the guidelines and grading rubric, at the very least.

honestly, it's a bit of a relief, thinking about waiting til tomorrow to work on it. I'm just... so exhausted. 😮‍💨
 
Tonight I suddenly have aches and chills. I was suspiciously warmer than I should be last night, but this is definitely worse. There doesn't appear to be anything spreading through my family as far as I know, so I am kinda scared about not knowing what's happening to me. I can't tell if I have other symptoms since they're minor and match my constant allergies/tonsil issues, but if those get worse I will know something is up. I can't even see a doctor, so I am desperately hoping this just goes away.
