How are you doing? - Kiwi Farms Wellness Check

So far so good, could be better but could always be worse, settled in at the new job and it's fairly easy work, dish washing some prep cooking and grunt stuff. Chef's said he and the sous chef will teach me soon ,kinda like an apprenticeship to be a chef myself.

Still waiting on my tax refund, plan on using it to cover a few nessicites then put the rest of it into a nest egg or two. But the IRS is taking longer than usual to process refunds this year due to having a lot of back logs to catch up with thanks to corona Chan.

Just your average Joe trying to make the most outta life.
 
I've always found it difficult to square the concept of a General Discussion subforum (particularly regarding topics such as this) with things such as hiding your powerlevel and the concept of halal. The two would seem largely incompatible at first glance.
People aren't the special snowflakes they think they are. Humans are in fact quite alike, and even if you have different groups of people acting a certain way. Possibility is that you're just acting similar to several millions of people anyway.

It's very hard to be an original when the worlds population is almost 8 billions

Stressed about my car still. It's been about 3 weeks since I dropped it off. They called today, and it seems the small fixes unrelated to the transmission are going fine. But the transmission... The first one they scouted had a crack so they instead found one elsewhere. But, the second one is not quite a fit since her engine was replaced before I got her (i had mentioned this to them, but admit i didnt know the exact details). So it's from the same model, but different year. Here's hoping they find said year transmission and everything goes fine from there. I don't mind waiting, I just want a working car.
 
Seems like I've managed to break or sprain my toe while working out yesterday. It's now a very colorful toe. Ah well, time to take it easy over the weekend I guess, and maybe see a doctor on Monday if it's getting worse. I just can't bring myself to go to the hospital/ER because of a colorful toe.

... it's at least a good excuse to order some Thai takeout, isn't it? :lol:

Today at work, I went into the restroom to wash my hands and found one of the female co-workers touching up her hair in front of the mirror.

It took me a second to register that she's in the men's room and I just stood there saying "Ummm..." She glanced at me and then went on her way like nothing happened. I then remembered seeing that the women's restroom was closed for cleaning.

She was pretty cute looking and looking at myself standing side by side by her for that split second made me realize that all those workouts are starting to pay off because I looked relatively chiseled next to her.

So yeah, feeling good. Still weird she felt the need to use the men's restroom for something like that though.
 
I'm drunk and wife is doing her weekly TTRPG podcast. If I fight the urge to sleep, this could be a fun night.
 
Friend just turned up in a storm to do a welfare check on me because I'm a moody cunt and I dropped off the radar for a couple of weeks. I feel both humbled and embarrassed.
Must buy him a drink.
This morning my mother had such a terrible premonition of my doom she made my dad drive over to mine to check on me. (Phone network seems to be down) I answered the door alive and well and baffled. It was awkward. What the actual fuck.

Should I be worried?
 
I'm having a good time, yes. Yesterday, I just starting to having difficultly to sleep and wake properly. It was a pain in the ass and I have to put on alarms on my iPad in order to time where should I awake. As well as hard I could try to time the moment I should wake up, yesterday it's also getting harder to think anything correctly. It's hard, but can be a little bit thinkable correctly. This morning my mind does slowly getting better, but it's better than nothing.
 
I said guess you coward.
I pulled a muscle in my back somehow. It feels better now, though

Anyway depression is kicking my ass today. But I won't give into it, I've got too much spite for that. Maybe I'll go for a walk later.
Well, that happens to the best of us. Take care and get better.
 
Slowly trying to get my sleep and health habits down to a point. No phone after 11, sleep at 12, wake up at 8. Trying to cut down on the weed too (although it really does help with insomnia). Reading more as well. I'm feeling happier through the fulfilment but it's not enough.

I moved out of state for college and the month after I started officially dating a girl back home that I've gone after since senior year of high school. We've visited each other throughout the semester, but fuck it's hard when she's gone. She came up for Valentines a week ago and it's hard laying in bed without her there or just simple things like "damn i wish she was at the dining hall with me rn". I talk to her everyday, but I still miss the physical touch (and sex). I go back home for spring break in 3 and a half weeks, but it feels years away.
Also got a Russian oral exam on Monday and a written exam Tuesday that I'm not prepared for. I need to up my self-discipline. It feels so good but it's hard when all my roommates/friends are hedonistic and party til 3 am, which I just can't do if I want to stay healthy.

I’m being plagued by migraines trying to readjust to taking this medication, another of my favorite snakes that I decided to not rehome died at the age of 13 and I’m having trouble trying to get help training for a new career. Other than that, I’m just happy to be alive. I guess every day above the dirt is a blessing or something, I don’t know.
 
I’m really failing to see the point anymore. I exercise like a fiend, live with someone I love, have hobbies, touch grass, and still when I look inside my soul it’s like a void with a single tumbleweed just bouncing by. I sit in front of my stop-feeling-sad light and am on my third brand of brain pills and I might as well be throwing back tic-tacs for all the good they do me.

I’m not going to do anything because a) I’m a coward and b) I have people that care about me and as bad as I feel I sure as shit don’t want to pass bad feelings off to them. I just have to look in the mirror for another forty years and see nothing looking back
