Lost a brother in law this morning. Of course it wasn't the one I would like to see drop off the face of the earth. Mike was a bigot and a homophobe but I get it because of him being raised by his grandparents who were that way. He was straight forward at least and wasn't a self centered liar like the other one. They found cancer a couple months ago, gave him a year max, then he had a stroke. He was a few years older than I am.
sorry for your loss

Had my daughter at a ear nose and throat specialist today.. Yeah, our medical system works that fast if you have a medical insurance of some sort.

He says he might be able to salvage the situation with simple grommets and removing her adenoids... we are scheduled for surgery next Wednesday.

"Jarvis died in a sanitarium in 1948" She sounds like a nasty person. I always gave my grandmother a mother's day card and flowers.
She became unhinged at what Mother's Day became, was arrested many times due to violent protests. She was committed to the nuthouse due to "psychiatric troubles". Ironically, her bills for care were largely paid by florists and gift card printers.

got a 2nd interview in the same location as the first all within 5 minute bus ride from my house and lucky for me those buses run fast if i were to take the bus to my sushi job i'd be waiting 20-30minutes for a bus with this one im waiting 10-15minutes max and i can catch 2 different ones not just 1. downside of this area is it is a must to take alternative transportation. i can't drive because the area has no parking it's all paid parking costing $20-30 at least per day times that by 5 days a week it adds up real quick. if i can park a bike somewhere or inside of the restaurant i'd do that no need to wait for the bus and overal bikes are cheaper plus i can get home just as fast. idk yet though i aint got either jobs but hoping i get one of um at least.

my dad got an offer to buy back my moms old car we got it for free from her boss but he is offering us to buy it. would be dirt cheap most likely idk what the price he is asking but it's up to my dad. he has the money now so everything is just all on him. the issue with him though is he is looking at unrealistic prices. he wants a car 30k or under miles costing about $10-12k unless the person is moving off island and doesn't want to ship there car no way in hell you gonna find a car for that price and even so im sure a dealership would offer them more.

fed my worms yesterday but idk i didn't see much worms hoping they didn't die off again no fucking way they could survive in a dried out pot for so long and when given a better environment die off. the compost is starting to smell fruity though i put in mostly fruits and tea and coffee. we got some dragon fruit in the freezer nobody has used for idk how many months now im planning to give to them. then a shit load of mangoes as well. the food doesn't seem to disappear very quickly about 2 weeks but that could just be because the population is low for now

Sorry for your loss :hug: I couldn't find the emoticon where I hug you and pat you on the back while looking sad but that's what I meant. Sometimes there are no words. It is times like this I wonder if there is some kind of asshole immunization against death.

The myringotomy tubes usually spit out on their own, hurrah. If kids could hold still they wouldn't even need a general for those. But there is no danger even with a general. They breath the kids down with sevoflurane or isoflurane it's quick and they come up fast with no hangover.

Unfortunately since they want to remove her adenoids they can get pukey and they need to hold her there for a bit. They use suction bovies for this, wonderfully safe, and fast. Good choice they are not taking her tonsils. Sounds like her doctor is doing a good job. Was this the ENT surgeon who will be doing the procedure? Make sure you let me know she's ok. I'll be thinking of you guys.
