Orlion Blight he/him Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 (edited) Seriously panicking and freaking out about moving. I don't want to leave this place. It's actually a normal (and stressful!) reaction to change...at least, it has happened to me.Remember: It'll be all right. Edited September 19, 2015 by Orlion 1
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Dear Other Receptionist, First of all, let me point out that in the nearly two years I've been employed here, I can count the number of accounting errors I've made on one hand. ONE. Most of the time, my work is accurate and clean. So why oh WHY do you feel the need to rub my face in every single stupid error I make, as though I do it every night and correcting my mistakes is part of your morning routine? Second, I KNOW HOW TO FILL OUT THE SHEET YOU LEFT FOR ME TO FILL OUT. I KNOW how to recognize a blank space that needs filling. I finished second grade. I know how to fill in a blank without pretty colors reminding me of where that blank space is. Finally, I'm going to harken back to the first paragraph. If I made a mistake, is there a way for me to correct it? Is there a NEED for me to correct it? No? You already corrected it for me? THEN THERE IS NO NEED TO DETAIL WHERE I MADE THE MISTAKE AND HOW. When YOU make a mistake (which you have done twice in the last month) do you know what I do? I STORMING CORRECT IT FOR YOU AND LEAVE IT AT THAT. I see no need to rub your face in your errors because THAT ACCOMPLISHES NOTHING. Hear me? N-O-T-H-I-N-G. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a job to do. 2
Voidus Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 On a positive note I'm three nights free of Cluster headaches so it should be a few months before the next batch and now I can actually sleep and function without the aid of narcotics. Huzzah! 4
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 Would it be wrong to just throw all of the hard candy within this building in the garbage? Seriously, I don't know how much longer I can handle the smacking and slurping. 1
Zathoth Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 No? Yes? Does it really matter as long as the sounds stop? 1
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 19, 2015 Posted September 19, 2015 No? Yes? Does it really matter as long as the sounds stop? If there's some way to convince everyone that the Jolly Ranchers were, I don't know, stolen by the notorious Southern Arizona Jolly Rancher Thief, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Problem is, everyone else loves that candy, as evidenced by the noises they make while eating it. If it were to vanish, they'd ask where it went and probably send someone to the store for another bag to tide them over. At least they're not standing around by my desk anymore. I mean, today it's slow enough that I can use headphones, but that's kind of rude and I'd rather be able to hear everything I need to hear. Which makes the Jolly Ranchers kind of an impediment to my performance, because on days when I can't use my headphones, I'll have to walk away from my desk for a few minutes. If I stay where I am, I won't be able to concentrate and it'll take time for me to calm down. 2

Because everyone loves them it is very likely that someone stole them. Or you could practice your librarian hush. Im sure that works, it is like a librarian super power. Or you could just ask them to them stop slurping, nicely, while holding a sharp object. 4
Kestrel she/her Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 ahh here's a cute animation to maybe cheer someone up who needs it <3 2
Briar King Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 I had a slight headache when I went to bed around 3am. 6am I wake up grunting in pain and have to go take some Tylenol and layback down. 6:52am a mild seizure hits me. I didn't have full control of my legs or arms and I was trying to get down hallway to get my strong meds. Luckily my dad had just gotten up so he basically led me everywhere I told him until I got back in bed. It's now 1:15pm and I have a slight ache but I'm weak from seizure. That's the 4th I've had since '07 and the 3rd most painful. 2
ParadoxicalZen he/him Posted September 20, 2015 Posted September 20, 2015 Not so much a bad thing but....that moment when you've finished binge watching a show on netflix and now your life has no purpose and its feels so empty = me at this moment *tries not to cry* 2
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 "I can't find my thing. I'll just borrow Twi's. No need to ask. I know she won't mind."--my mom and sisters I can't wait until I move out and can FINALLY have private property. 3

I know she won't mind."--my mom and sisters I can't wait until I move out and can FINALLY have private property. If you have a pet of any kind you'll find it still gets stolen pretty frequently. One of our cats is nicknamed klepto-kitty because if any personal item is left alone for 3 seconds she'll steal it and hide under a bed to play with it for a while. 3
TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 If you have a pet of any kind you'll find it still gets stolen pretty frequently. One of our cats is nicknamed klepto-kitty because if any personal item is left alone for 3 seconds she'll steal it and hide under a bed to play with it for a while. That's a different, though. If a pet steals an item to use as a toy, I know they're just obeying an urge to play. Give them something else, and most of the time they'll play with that while I can put the original item up where they can't reach. If my mom steals something of mine and I call her on it, I'm treated to a lecture about how "we're a family and families share, stop being so selfish." If one of my sisters steals something of mine and I tell Mom, she acts like I'm four and making a big deal about Mister Teddy Bear taking Mister Kitty-cat's spot on the shelf. "Oh, you're standing up for yourself! SO CUTE!" You wouldn't happen to have a pic of klepto-kitty, would you? 2
Zathoth Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 Cats are supposed to be evil; they are so cute that you forgive them, moms and sisters are not. 2
Orlion Blight he/him Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 My cat will steal the bookmark right out of a book. Just because. He isn't consistent, either, so there's no telling when he'll do it! He's also come up to me with money in his mouth. I'm not sure where he gets or keeps it. 2

ParadoxicalZen he/him Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 Because cats were and still are the supreme overrulers of the universe, Bastet told Neil Gaiman so! We've just duped ourselve into believing otherwise And...I think i'm coming on with a slight headcold (there's a cold/fluey like bug at work. My head feels a little groggy, my nose is running and I can feel the glands in my neck are bit swollen (or i could just be run down from a combination of night shifts and late nights/early wake ups on my rest week) Swimming probably doesn't help either 1

Oh, I know I'm being overly pedantic, but She's one of my gods. It's Bast. The extra 't' ending came about from the later ancient Egyptian language getting lazy and starting to drop their t's. The extra hieroglyph was a reminder to folks to actually pronounce the feminine 't' ending. Egyptologists just didn't figure this out until later, because the later version of the written language is what they found first. And that concludes your lesson in Kemeticism for the day. If your throat gets sore, apple cider mix with a splash of apple cider vinegar and some honey to cut the sourness works wonders on soothing things. 2
