I never went to college because I felt I didn't need a piece of paper to prove to people I was smart or worthy which sounded noble at the time. I still don't really feel that college is meant for me because it doesn't excite me and I don't know what... See More »

One thing I noticed is people up north are far friendlier than people down below here in Michigan.

Every yooper I've interacted with has been nice. Can't say the same for people down in metro detroit where I'm at. I'm on the way back home and dread it deeply.

Both of my ankles are beyond swollen and stiff from too much salt. Is this normal?

I decided to go on the trip afterall.

Broke down and finally went to doctor. I have pneumonia.

I'm coughing very hard and keep throwing everything up. This really sucks.

I swear I have a stomach ulcer. So much burning.

Especially after eating greasy food or drinking something acidic like pop. My stomach just burns each time. Probably explains the blood streaks in my vomit I get sometimes.

Forced myself into work this morning ended up throwing up and being sent home anyway.

There was also blood in my vomit. Matches the blood from exclusively my right nostril. Fun.

Why do jobs not want you to come in sick but turn around and chastise you for calling out?

I took 4 days off of work and I can honestly say I resent my job at a soul level

I needed a break and I felt peace, I felt free. Today was my first day back and I went right back into the hate my life depression spiral. I felt angry again and annoyed and my happiness was gone. I know I need a new job but what? That's just it I... See More »

Norman but he prefers Norm.

I don't think I can handle sugar anymore.

Makes me sick, shakey, jittery, dizzy..... I felt out of it. All because I drank super sweet tea and had a bowl of icecream. I don't understand because I've never felt that way before and I always drink my tea that way.

I've been doing a lot of thinking recently.... all because of an old photo.

This happened the year after I graduated highschool so 2009. The fact that it's nearing 20 years since I graduated makes me want to vomit but that's something else entirely. So the photo was of me kissing a male friend of mine on the lips. It was... See More »

What is one kind of job you will never do again?

Cooking because that's the job I was sacked from and everytime I've worked in a kitchen my anxiety was sky high and I constantly felt bad. I like cooking but hate the kitchen culture.

Losing your job is one of the scariest things an adult can go through.

In 2016 I lost my job that I had for several years and was only late one time due to car issues and had called to let them know. I was also employee of the month several times and had trained many people there. I was let go because the schedule was... See More »
