        Two friends gone, in the space of a few weeks. Neither one of them was much older than me.

        This year's started out brutal.

          I do recall an article, I believe about Indonesia, where the divorce rate was up and the birthrate was down, and the cause was the couples couldn't figure out how to have sex.

          At one point, I had to explain to one of my college roommates that no, he would not be able to tell if his girlfriend cheated on him based on how her vagina would feel and no, would not fit him differently. Apparently he was under the impression that they work like some sort of reverse jello molds and hold the shape of whatever was in them last.

          Yes, I am entirely serious.

            @aria You can tell which ovary ovulated this month by where there is the most blood on a pad or tampon. True fax.

            I have a waggish sense of humor.

              There is one way! If the vagina is blocked and has evidence of a penis coming out of it (or into it, depending on your perspective) then there's a chance she's presently actively cheating.

                So they're doing some shoddy 'renovation' work on my apartment building. The work crews all know I have a dog. They know he's overly curious about everything going on in the hallway with all the sounds, smells and voices.

                Some asshole thought it was a good idea to put the PAINT Pan right in front of our door, and then knock so we could open it for him to paint.

                Guess who got paint paws.

                    @derp Yeah. Guess who also has issues with having his paw handled? (They got hurt bad when he was a pup, before I ever got him)

                    And guess who got nipped at, while scrubbing said paint paws?

                      And now, I found out another long time friend was shot and killed last night. My work computer is still fucking off, and IT is blaming my ISP, ISP says nothing's amiss.

                      I am tired of construction waking me up hours before I have to get up for work, and the constant noise and smells are making me physically feel ill.

                      Can this week just fuck right off?

                          I am exhausted in every way possible(mental/emotional/physical/spiritual), feeling very down on myself in many ways, fighting both all the literally fucking trees in my area plus some weird illness that's going around our school but isn't covid.

                          I just want to sleep and maybe have carrot cale for breakfast for a few days.

                            Had to share this with a coworker today, so I might as well share it here, too.

                              Being hard on myself honestly is all I know how to do.

                              That said, I'm exhausted too. It's probably because I'm working out 4 times a week now, mostly weekdays, along with working three jobs (two are really part-time, but still).

                                    I'm a full-time student now (because everyone needs a hobby while going through a midlife crisis, right?) and jesus christ the work load. I don't mind having assignments and essays and shit, that's to be expected. But why do they have to all be due on the same goddamn day?

                                      @tinuviel I did that a few years back and dear God, the sheer amount of work for each class felt like the teachers believed their class was the only one students were taking so surely they could handle it.

                                        @tinuviel Do the assignments in advance. Best advice I ever got while going through grad school. I'd just knock out the papers that I could early in the semester and have them waiting around so I could tweak them if I needed by the time the deadline rolled around. Far less stressful! It's how I managed to keep up with things even when I have birth in the middle of spring semester.
