      Only one antibiotic left after the most recent whee-fun surgery.

      They'll need to do more later, much more extensive, but a notable end point to this stopgap slice-and-dice is very welcome.

      Oh fucking well.

        Finally. After working to try and prove myself for two years, I was offered the promotion I was trying to get. The one I had gotten a year prior was nice but it was never the one I truly wanted.

        I almost started sobbing in front of the supervisor when she offered me the position.

        Im so fucking happy.

            Science.

            Specifically, the discovery of cryovolcanoes.

            So cool.

                I really love when IT picks up, fixes my problem, and I'm able to get back to my work.

                I really really really love it.

                    Got a new car and I'm almost done packing and preparing for my cross country drive for a new job. It feels good to accomplish such a big task that has taken almost three weeks.

                      @Ominous Just know that I (and likely a bunch of others) are sitting at home, silently cheering you on and waving invisible pom poms.

                        Original music inspired by stuff I like.

                        This song makes me cry a lot.

                          @Ganymede Love that song. It's on my playlist of songs to listen to at work, and I don't know why because why do I want my coworkers or residents to see me cry?

                            I'm pretty sure that's what I want to happen.

                            This is also on my work playlist.

                                    Please accept my apologies for not being appropriately invested in a play I have no expectation I'll ever be able to see in the format it was created for.

                                        The Disney+ version really isn't that great. It's better than not seeing it I guess but definitely didn't get that "wow, this is amazing" that people seem to feel about the live show.

                                          The song is at a point in the musical after Hamilton's son, Philip, is shot in a duel, and he elects to move himself and his family away the center of New York City.

                                          That occurs after Hamilton ruins his entire political career by very publicly admitting to an affair with Maria Reynolds.

                                          These would be spoilers if, y'know, it wasn't part of the man's personal history.

                                          This is at the conclusion of the musical, when you finally learn who's telling the story and who the true hero is.

                                            Made it to California with all the stuff I didn't throw away crammed into my car. Started my job and I think I can do it. Got a 6-month lease and am moving in. Cross your fingers and knock on wood, but things seem to be working out.
