I'm thinking of getting a new tattoo. One to commemorate my parents. Just don't know what to get yet of where to put it. I already have one on the back of my neck and the small of my back.

Hey guys,

Been pretty tired today. Ended up having two naps! Still, not a bad day.

Hope everyone's is off to a good start.

Today has been weird and tiring. Been hearing crows very loud. Bf thinks I'm hearing things again. Im on shift 2 of 3 and I'm tired. I wish these stupid f***ing tablets didn't make me so tired in the morning. My cpn hasn't contacted me in like 2 weeks. Everything feels weird. I'm a bit worried that things are guna get worse. I didn't want to take my meds tonight due to tiredness. Is it just that? I took them. It's a slippery slope

My Snapchat is laggy. The videos I mean.

I still might get the iPhone 8 when it comes out BUT maybe not
If I were going to go from apple to Android, I'd get a Pixel. Free of all lag, Google designed.

I slept late and got up at lunchtime. I'm still in laundry limbo and except for a few minutes on a bike machine, I didn't get anything much done.

The PTs are really going downhill without the one who helped me transferred away. It's like they have nothing to do. The machine I preferred was off limits because its battery is running down - that's what they said!

I had the worst insomnia last night with RLS. I took a Trazodone around 2 am.

I hope everyone had a good day.

When i bought my Lenovo laptop i did tired out after a couple days they gave me a lesser model. I thought about keeping it but i ended up returning it the next week. No shame in that. The new iphone comes out in just a couple months so you have that to look forward too! Our phones are an extension of our selves it almost seems like. Treat yourself right.
Thanks for this!

I'm in a rut too. My goals for each day is pretty basic. Say something reasonable, listen to something beautiful, learn something a wise, and do some nice each day. I've hit an unxpected existential crisis myself. I've got a vision of how to get on of half the mess im in but i hm at a loss career wise. Teaching is a noble pursuit but getting there requires finances and time that i can't figure out.
Thanks for this!

Exactly. They are an extension of us. I take my phone very seriously. Treat it like my boyfriend...errr uhh yea i do actually. I use it everyday LOL. That came out wrong.

But anyway, i suggest the new iphone 8. Its gonna be quite a hefty dollar. But even the one i had yesterday was too. It was an 800 dollar phone. The 8 will be 1000. Or more.

My dad says my trademark in this family is that i like apple. Even tho everyone in my family has one, im the most knowledgeable about it and know the ins and outs of the iphone to the best of my knowledge!

1K for a new iPhone, really? What new things can it do to be worthy of such a price tag? It better be able to feed my cat for that price! And you have to buy a case and insurance of course. I think I'd rather buy a used iPhone7. How much would you sell your phone for if you were to buy an iPhone8?

What people are paying for there is the brand name itself

Well im giving my iphone 7 to my dad. I hand down all my old phones across to my family. My dad gets the best and then if my mom and sister want one ill give them one (if they havent already bought one). Im selling my 6s to my mom for 400-450. Havent figured out the price yet.

The iphone 8 will be my first iphone on an installment plan. Ive always outright paid in full for my iphones.

Pretty much. Plus they have secrets and an ecosystem that goes into the phone that is unlike the rest. I know im a bit biased but one thing is looking at android phones they have third party software that goes into the apps so you dont really know what you are putting on your phone. In the apple app store each app is reviewed and passed by apple (in some way or another) so your phone is essentially safer from hacking and the like.

Thats just one thing.

And the 1k for the 8 is a rumor. Could be true. Might not be. Who knows yet. We wont know until they have the Apple Keynote address on sept 11. They speculated 1k and up MAYBE for the phone but that makes no sense since they make varying degrees of storage. Like 32gb, 64gb, etc etc.

I recently updated my phone from a iPhone 6 to iPhone 6S Plus. I love it. The large screen is awesome. I liked the idea of iPhone 7S Plus but it just didn't seem as much of an upgrade from the 6S Plus so I couldn't justify the price difference to myself.

If the iPhone 8 is different enough I might consider upgrading again, but not for a while lol.

I couldn't go back to a smaller screen though. I love this monstrosity.

I'm sorry that you can relate. That's a really awful thing to have happened to you, especially in front of the whole class!

I've written a letter to my rehab pdoc to tell him that he needs to discharge me because I can't stay here anymore. I hope he listens. I told him that everyone in this city tells me that services are different to my parent's city, but it's really not that different after all. Their interpretations of my personality and behaviour, the diagnoses, might differ, but ultimately I am still misunderstood and their wrong interpretations are still hurting me.
