All ya need is a short skirt and I'm sold.

This.

I start day shifts again next week. I'm pretty stoked about that. These 12 hour nights alone 1 night off a week if I'm lucky has been getting to me lately.

It's going to take some sort of deep digging, and to stop panicking over what is not and start accepting what is. Stress induced physical and mental problems are real, and stress is created when reality doesn't square with expectations. Adjust your expectations.

@ Zephyrus
"lowered expectations means fewer disapointments"
[sorry i can't remember who i'm quoting here]
just stop expecting your life to be good and you'll stop being surprized when your life turns out to be crap every day
it will help with the stress

The expectations I've set have made me accomplish extraordinary things academically. My problem is that they don't refuel my self-esteem and optimism to the degree that they ought. I refuse to set the bar lower.

Also, it's been a week so far on the Wellbutrin and so far things have significantly improved. It seems I'm on the mend at last. My memory has been improving, thinking clearer, and motivation greater. It works more subtly than stimulants, and without the anxiety. A shame I didn't try this stuff at the outset.

I just got a sorta Burzum-esque ambient track done.

Not bad. I thought it was just gonna be a bunch of farting noises.

iirc, you're living north of the mason-dixon-line and east of the Mississippi river

if you come down to "the bible belt" you'll still find tons of hotels that do monthly rates

Hotels in Ohio do weekly rates..

Kidney stone. Passed it this morning. Didn't know last night, though. Went in to be sure and let them do bloodwork.

The idea of pissing a rock always struck me as incredibly painful sounding. Is this accurate?

 

[Zephyrus]

It was very small, but a mineral accretion nonetheless. Minimal pain.

Hotels here do monthly rates but they're always fucking 800, 900, 1000+ and that's just not worth it. I have a nice apartment pegged for 550 utilities included, sharing with one other person my age, on Federal Hill in Providence RI. Honestly for Federal Hill the place looks wicked nice.

honestly though if I could get a nice hotel room for under 700 I would do that.

Call me a pussy if you'd like, I don't care how big the thing was I would still probably sqeal scream and cry through the entire process. Probably vomit. I pray that I never get one.

Yeah, there are exactly 2 things I'm comfortable expelling through my urethra. Everything else should find a different exit.

 

[The Butt]

Dear lord, Zeph, the mere thought of passing a stone makes me wince in agony. You hardcore motherfucker.

Not bad. I thought it was just gonna be a bunch of farting noises.

Lmao, why's that? Thank you though. I'm pleased with how it turned out.

there's hotels down here that will do a monthly rate of aprox $500

you'll have to pay extra for an extra person, though, and these hotels have multiple sizes in the rooms where the larger room will cost more than the smaller one
