I honestly wish I hadn't signed up for the marathon in November.... It used to be a goal of mine, but I'm not enjoying the running training like I used to when I first got into running for awhile. I'm being active again, but I'm much more motivated to just focus on strength training, yoga, dancing again, and one of my friends wants me to start rock climbing with her (which I used to do but didn't have someone consistent to go with). I don't wanna run... lol

But I already paid for it, and my entire family already booked a VRBO out here for that weekend so they could travel out and support me. So... I guess I'm running the damn marathon.

I came out to the manager who is two levels up from me last week (he has a director title). About my gender identity, orientation, and history in sex work. I told him that i think it's important for people like me to come out about stuff like that to destabilize ideas people have about who sex workers are. We talked for over three hours.

I get confused by covid weight gain.

I had nothing going on !!

I guess I just find it confusing but I know depression hit some people hard during the pandemic and such.

It's similar for me, I always tiny but skinny-fat for a long time. But with covid and now a little mini gym in the basement I have gotten around to be fairly toned consistently.

Still, this person is just the biggest asshole you can ever imagine.

I'm applying to an IT Support program that I'm not technically "qualified" for based on my income. If it was based on my take-home pay - absolutely, but I'm pretty sure they meant gross pay.... Maybe it's unfair, but I honestly think it's BS to base qualification for income-restricted programs off of gross pay rather than what you actually live off of. It's not like it's that much higher. I hope they don't ask for proof of income from a tax return, but if they do, I guess I'll just back out. Can't go any worse than the 6 or 7 other programs I've tried to start over the last year+.

^ Nice.

I look at it like this ...... it really doesn't hurt to just say " what's needed " to get the the next step.
They may not even ask for proof. It is also not unheard of for MANY people to quality as " low income " based on 2020 and 2021 when so many were out of work.
They could just be pushing it through and you don't want to disqualify yourself.
I could see people organizing the applications just putting them into the " piles " based on what has been said in the sorting process. :)

I had a long day learning to prep the mock OR room before a surgery since I'm in lab class now. I was so disappointed in myself seeing how tough it was to remain sterile on day 1 or the procedures my school follows. Some of the procedures are taught better in OR settings. Plus this school has crammed so many students in the class that we only get maybe 1-2 attempts to do it alone before we are quizzed on it. The school only cares about getting your money and doesn't care if we learn or not. I actually freaked out when I read reviews about this online where students couldn't believe they were gonna be thrown into real life clinical's barely knowing everything and were humiliated in the OR over their lack of knowledge because of the school. I didn't even get a chance to practice what we would be tested on. SOOO I called my mom up upset (thank god she's a surg tech teacher) and I drove over and practiced at her house repeatedly. I feel SOO much better.

I'm glad you have your mom to help you. I know some of those schools cram so much in a short time . I used to work with a girl who did a massage course, it was only 3 months and she had to learn alot. She used to bring books to work.I was her model for her exan, she also had to have so many hours worth of practice too. All the girls used to go to her house for her to practice on us.

I'm happy to report that bf texted me to tell me that the cat is in heat again and has been louder than usual with her meowing/howling and apparently it's really pissing off his crazy mother who thought she'd eliminate the problem by getting a male cat in there to impregnate her. That cat has been there for months and she's not pregnant yet lol
I'm loving the fact that her stupid irrational plan is blowing up in her face bahahahaha

Y'all.... it's been one hell of a week. It started out with me having an overnight hospital stay (I'm fine) and then a friend telling me via text that she was dying. I read it and was like B*TCH WTF!!! So we got in the car and drove to her state where it was grey and rainy all week to help her pack. She's decided to go back to her home state to be with family and unfortunately she can't take her elderly dog with her. I've been trying and trying to find him a home but everyone is saying no. I can't keep him and it fucking kills me. I feel so defeated.

Is there anyone on social media you can reach out to to share the store to try and find him a home? Like any big accounts on tiktok or instagram that do animal rescue?

I've done all of that. But it's such short notice and the situation needs more time. And unfortunately, time is running out. It's a very complex situation because I grew up with her being my "big sis". I'm not exactly asking y'all to fix this situation, but God damn it hurts. It hurts

I am so sorry you're going trough this, it's painful and devastating. I send you big hugs and wish you strength.
Speaking of the doggo, can you talk to a local dog shelter to keep the dog on your expense? Can you afford to cover food and shelter costs? Until you take your time to find an owner? Is that even a possibility to do such a thing? I mean, as a short term fix... maybe it's dumb what I am asking, it just crossed trough my mind.

I'm contemplating a major career change. Just kind of sick of this 5-days-a-week grind, especially now that we're back in the office (which feels so pointless). I make good money and have good benefits, but i could probably either find something better with a different company, or take a step back from the salaried life and work a job that's slightly more mindless (and work my way up in the new company over time). I've never been into the financial sector...i don't find it interesting at all.

I know this is probably a mood to some degree, but I've been feeling this for a while now. Like, am i reeeaallly going to be working at my current company for *the rest of my life*?? My current job isn't super stressful, but it does involve the usual white-collar stressors (i find myself leading a good number of meetings and giving presentations)... it would be so nice to not have that anymore.

As a baby first step, I've applied to an hourly job at a huge employer that should guarantee me some extra pay and some good initial experience to test the waters. Just a bit of extra money and a bit less time for me to spend online shopping. We'll see if it turns into something more...

I'm also going to update my resume and put it up on linkedin and whatnot to see if it generates any interest.

Hahahahaha I feel bad now but I blew up at my teacher I'm supposed to see in a few hours via text. He extended our lab hours to 5 hours. I desperately need new shoes for standing that long. Ya don't know the feeling until you have scoliosis and spinal degeneration how much pain that is. I wanna feel like I'm standing on a cloud in my new shoes lolll.

He prolly thinks I'm a bitch now. Oh well.

I talked to my therapist about everything from my crush to the patriarchy in general. I feel much better. She said I could work with him if I had boundaries, but I’m not sure if I want to continue enforcing boundaries. Now that I called him out on his inappropriate behavior it might be easier to have a more professional relationship with him. I’m proud of myself for not tolerating sexual harassment from him. It was inappropriate. It gave me false hope, and it messed with my health care. He’s really the doctor I need for my condition, but I REALLY don’t want to deal with his shit. I’m doing a 30 day detox before making a decision. I need some space to figure out what’s best for me. He needs time to think about sexually harassing his patients.

Mostly networking with old friends from foster groups. They were able to send me links to all the best rescue groups on Facebook. It came down to the very last minute and I have been so stressed because of it. It turns out that the guy who adopted him was looking for a senior dog. He just wanted an old dog to keep him company when he goes fishing. Perfection!

^ I would say it's " enough" too since you see him and then get disappointed he isn't fully single and pursuing you.
He seems to have taken a lot of energy from you already and given you very little ( just from the perspective seen here ).
Due to his lack of professionalism you are not even fully relaxed in your seasons and THAT is the point of the sessions.

I feel bad that I just declined the invitation to a wedding next month. It's the sister of a good friend who can't attend, and we told her a couple years ago that we would definitely attend for her brother. But we didn't realize, at the time, that the wedding would be out of state. It's a 12-hour drive one way, in a really expensive part of that state. Just the travel costs alone would be hundreds of dollars. For what? A few hours at the wedding of someone that we are honestly not close with and will probably never see again after that day. I feel bad for changing my mind, but if I was really "filling in for her brother," I would've been involved and invited to a lot more things at this point, not just the wedding itself. I think she won't even really notice.

It sucks they won't pay for the travel and accomodation. I have been at a couple of weddings outside my cite and the host always had booked hotel rooms and even plane tickets for the guests that were coming from far. I'd do the same if I would invite someone... so don't feel bad for refusing, it's not your job to cover the costs for a party, it's their invitation so they must accomodate the guests.

I chopped off a bunch of my hair today, but I did the same damn thing I do every time I get a big haircut and forgot that when my hair is long, it's fine for my bangs to grow out, but if I don't cut some curtain bangs when it's shorter, my hair falls like a helmet around my head lol

I did the same thing I did last time too.... cut them myself. I'm sure if a professional looked at them, they would be able to tell, but they look good enough for me to feel acceptable in public at least.

Yeah, I thought it was strange that, on their wedding website, they hadn't even blocked out rooms in a certain hotel. I feel like that's pretty standard practice for a wedding where you know most people are going to need accommodations. The hotels in that area were outrageous, especially since it's a weekend in the summer, and this is by a beach. I'm sure it's a beautiful place to have a wedding, but it's a pricey trip.

I've done that before!!! Isn't the brain fascinating how real things feel when you're sleeping!?!

I confess I'm bummed Kate McKinnon is leaving SNL. She is so hilarious and only watched SNL clips because of her.
