Well, I had to get the program's psychologist to intervene on my behalf in order to make it happen, but I finally got a date for my gastric bypass surgery...March 8. I'm convinced if I hadn't made a fuss, I wouldn't be having surgery until May.

Yeah who needs critical thinking?

This inspired me to google my 9th grade French teacher, who used to say he didnt care if we learned french, as long as we learned to THINK! OMG he is still alive!!! He used to wear those sheer socks, IIRC. Gorgeous dresser. Always french cuffs. Those were the days. Straight off the set of The Godfather, which hadnt happened yet.

Something about how feelings aren't one size fits all?

Mornin' couchies. After not sleeping much Sunday night, last night I took a hot bath and then was in bed by 8pm. Woke up around 2am then went back to sleep til just before the alarm went off at 5:15. Just made my tea, fed the cats, and now heading to log onto work! Have a good day everyone and hugs to those who want.

Glad you got your surgery on the schedule!

So did not want to come to work today. Forced myself to adult. I was super tired when I got up and so wanted to go back to sleep. I have plenty of vacation days so I could have stayed home and slept. I didn't want to deal with my parents being all up in my business about why I stayed home from work though so that propelled me to get my butt in gear and get to work. Now I'm at work and I'm like, "Crap." It's going to be a long day.

I don't like the new ads. Is there anyway to pay to get rid of them?

They're annoying me as well. I'd be willing to pay a small fee to get rid of them (while of course leaving an option to still have free content, just with ads).

Our grades are due by Friday. Therefore I am making candied peel.
I hate grading. And calculating grades. And whiny complaints about grades.

I don't either. (At least, not yet.)

NP_Complete · Jan 12, 2021 at 01:40 PM

Hmm. I definitely have ads starting as of this morning. LT said she saw them, so I'm not alone. I'm on my laptop if that matters.

ArtieTheSequal · Jan 12, 2021 at 01:41 PM

I'm on my laptop too. I used to get them randomly on the old psychcentral thingamabob, then they'd go away just as randomly as they started popping up. so who knows....

ArtieTheSequal · Jan 12, 2021 at 01:46 PM

i so wish time went at the same speed regardless of what i'm doing. h and son both say it does for them. i'm like well you're lucky dudes because it doesn't for me!! things like swimming, or my lunch break, or a therapy session, one hour feels like a couple of minutes. One hour of taking calls at work feels like 3 hours. I wonder how I can develop that skill of time feeling consistent....

It's just one ad across the bottom of the browser window, so it could definitely be worse, but it's still distracting.
