Couch 223: Jan 4: Darn Tootin'!

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?

I like cats....

HUGS @Lemoncake

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 see no ads on pc?

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

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.

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....

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.

h loved the steaks i cooked yesterday morning. i finally learned how to cook them medium and not totally overcook them. i'm slowly gathering up recipes so once this overtime at work ends, I'm planning on cooking a lot more. i love to cook, it's just between work and school i pretty much hadn't been doing it. after overtime, and with no class this coming semester, i get to again. Yay!


i made donuts last night using the air fryer thingy, they are so yummy.

Woops sorry for being an egg head. I posted in the wrong thread!

Also, to tie into Artie's steak post, today, Dr. T, who knows I'm a vegetarian, said that the solution to my feeling better is a juicy steak. Or some fried chicken. He was just messing with me, of course. But it did make me smile through some tears.

My friend gave me the book deliciously Ella. Still not tried anything myself but It has nice pictures to flip through. Think you might like some including the chickpea burgers:

Hungerpots is also on the US site- she basically has recipes that cooks in one pot.

P.s if you feel like baking extra- could you please post me some too? My address is Flat 1901. Elliot bay Towers. Seattle. Washington

That's where mine are (and I'm on my laptop). The problem is, it's generally where I'd normally click the "submit post" button. So I keep almost accidentally clicking on the ad. I know that's the idea, but still--it would at least be less annoying in another location. I think I had one that was psychology-related, but the others are generic things.

I don't get ADs on PC but I use the google extension Adblock. Maybe try downloading a blocker. On other forums I'm on they don't let you browse without disabling it first which is super annoying as I also click accidently.

That's where mine are. Just started this morning. Some of them have been mental health related but some are generic. I'm using Firefox. Don't know how to disable them.

Yes, I was going to suggest getting the AdBlock plugin. I have it and it blocks all the ads on this forum for me.

Thats weird. Of them, i mean! Do they never "get in the zone"? It must be horribly boring to be a man. No PMS to make you constantly, monthly doubt your entire life, followed by assured ecstasy. And now this, no time sinks?

thanks for the links! I'll check 'em out. I love chickpea burgers mmmm.


p.s. it took me half a second to recognize that address
