My uncle is coming home this week.

I'm assuming this is a bad thing and offering my condolences/services as a sniper.

No, it was an update. He had to have his leg amputated a couple weeks ago.

I had tickets to Porgy and Bess today at the San Francisco Opera, and then managed to oversleep and generally fuck up the whole thing.

And the rest of this thread makes me feel like I shouldn't even be complaining about it.

Now I'm double-sad. :sadpanda: :sadpanda:

Seriously, what the fuck is up with Pepto Bismol?

It's supposed to help with nausea, but it has a horrific smell and taste.

...why no, no it is not a coincidence that the phrase "pink vomit" popped into my head the other day.

Good luck on the recovery dude.  Had montezuma's revenge once and all I can say is keep the food coming once in awhile.  Puking nothing is never fun..

You're not really supposed to take Pepto if you have a viral illness.  It's not going to stop you from vomiting in that case and it can cause other shit (granted, not if you're an adult.)

Good to know for future reference.

Though once I got some Pepto in me in pill form, it seemed to help.  Could just be coincidence though.

... Pepto helps with vomiting?  I thought it was a diarrhea thing.

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

Well, I had both.

After I took the Pepto, I had both simultaneously.

The only weird thing I ever noticed with Pepto Bismol is that it turns your poop black.

...I swear I ran across an article the other day helpfully informing me that the virus is spread through diarrhea and vomit and so you should be sure and wash your hands if you come into contact with any.  This of course gave rise to all sorts of snarky responses in my brain, such as, "Good advice, because when I come into contact with ordinary, disease-free diarrhea or vomit, I usually just go make a delicious sandwich."

However, I can't find the article now and it is entirely possible I misread something in a fever-induced delirium.

Whelp, dog looks like he's ruptured another disk. We're taking him to a clinic in the next state to get him an MRI. If it such, another fucking surgery.

I'm feeling  :sadpanda: and  :enraged: This dog is going to be the new million dollar man.  :facepalm:


EDIT:

MRI done. He ruptured another disc and has a blood clot from his first surgery. Operating again tonight. Poor dog..  :painful:

...you know, somebody just pointed out to me that the antibiotics I was taking for my strep throat actually probably made the stomach flu WORSE by virtue of killing all the good bacteria in my gut along with the bad bacteria in my throat.

Got to school today all geared up and ready to rock my finals and found out MY FINAL PROJECT IS MISSING FROM THE SERVER so I've been sitting here at the computer all day trying desperately to catch-up for Wednesday (I missed a checkpoint today in class because of it which will lower my grade) and my finished design sucks and I'm pissed off at myself for not saving another copy of it on a cheap fucking flash drive santa pants donkey

I lost part of a package Iw as going to send to SCD for some DVDs he sent me and forgot to pick things up to replace it.


...it may not seem like much but I take promises fucking seriously so it just REALLY upsets me.

As weird as it sounds, I once had a doctor tell me that when taking anti-biotics like that eating yogurt might be able to help replenish the good bacteria in your stomach.  Might be worth a try, if you can stomach yogurt.

Yeah, I hear that too. There's "pro-biotic" yogurt you can buy that's supposed to be especially good for it; it's widely available in groceries up here.

Oh wow. I was going to give that exact same advice re: yoghurt. Only, I guess I didn't press post?

When I was on antibiotics after my wisdom teeth, yoghurt helped my stomach a lot. Some of that may have been placebo effect, but it's worth a shot.
