of course not, do people ever even try? there seems there would be multiple points where it would be very obvious it wasn't injectable

Who else is a little underwhelmed by the new-look Pennywise?

Do they try? Oh yes they do, with stupid amounts of water and inevitable abscesses

my symptoms and pathology eerily match what's described in the 200+ pages of the Flox Report.

anyway i'm not taking it again. many say that their disabled condition only occurred the 2nd or 3rd time they were prescribed fluoroquinolones.

it took me a year to make a connection, because i follow the old adage of "don't look it up on the internet". but lately it's been on the news somewhat, with the FDA hearings of last november and the new warning issued in May.

Bummer, wow yeah the only thing the dr who rx said to me was there's some studies that suggest tendon ruptures could happen, then she scoffed at a patient who told her he thought it'd caused his. Then I read the actual documentation that came with it and got pretty spooked. I def won't be taking it again, either

It's crazy, I never would have expected an antibio to have side effects like that. Sorry to hear about your ongoing hand symptoms

i can live with the hand symptoms as long as it doesn't seem to get indefinitely worse. for a while i had trouble telling the temperature of things that i touched, and the lower part of my thumbs turned sore and blue after cleaning my bathroom.
but then on those support groups i hear from people who are just happy they were able to cook something today, and feel like i can't complain.

Might check the serpentine belt. If it falls loose or breaks it can cause that, happened to me once. Was like $75 to replace round here.

Glad to hear everyone's doing ok after surgery

did you guys know Herbert Hoover's VP Charles Curtis was American Indian? Lived on a reservation when he was young too. I've literally never heard this somehow. kind of interesting.

so i spent $750 on my car (fucking ridiculous, I need to get a real mechanic not a chain store) and then 2 hours later get a flat tire running over a huge screw. I couldn't fucking believe it. so I need a new tire now. I think I have road hazard though.

Today I met a locally famous news anchor at the shop. She asked me to fudge her parking validation so she didn't have to pay to exit the lot.

Yeah, why don't we ever see those anymore? Is it just cause it's more socially unacceptable to let your dog shit without picking it up?

I put it on credit cards for now. I do technically have the cash from student loans but I have to decide if it's better to save that money or use it to pay the CCs and then put new stuff on CCs. I also got 6 months no interest to pay off the car stuff. So that will wait until I get my loans for fall semester.

I've never paid an interest payment on a credit card... I use them for rewards and pay them multiple times per month. I am probably going to continue that and just use my student loans for now to pay them off right away. The only downside is if I run out of money I can't pay a credit card with a credit card. But I have about $1100 worth of income every month (in addition to the student loan cash) so that shouldn't ever happen, even if I have to make partial or even minimum payments.

I am lucky that my mom would also help me if I needed it. However, she hasn't worked for more than a year and has less money than she's had in her adult life (I'd guess something like $20k but I don't know) and is super stressed about it and I'm pretty determined to not ask her for help. $20k would seem like a fortune to me but obviously to someone of retirement age it's not. I could be completely wrong and it's more than that. But she's not a money complainer usually and she's been talking about being scared a lot lately.

My mom got screwed over by my dad with money. She was supposed to have a bunch of investments (my dad was the investor of their money) and was always the primary breadwinner in the house but when they got divorced she found out they had much less money than she thought and that he had gambled a ton of it away. She totally should have been checking on the finances herself but that's not an excuse for what he did. She should have no real money troubles but instead just has a small nest egg.

taking a midterm tomorrow worth 50% of my grade and i'm finding it hard to make myself study. it's like i reached my stress point and now i don't give a shit about anything. i could fuck up my GPA with this one test if it precludes me from getting an A but yet... who cares

I used to think so, but then I moved to a large foreign city where pet dogs were seemingly permitted to defecate willy-nilly all up and down the sidewalks.

Even still, there wasn't a single pallid logan among them.

Glad things are stabilizing for you a bit, your last couple weeks were nuts!

Bite the bullet and study hard for the midterm, caffeine is your friend
