What pissed you off today? Mark II

[midwestyankee]

I've been having really weird/bad dreams lately. Yesterday's was... I don't even want to talk about what was in it. Today's was about my husband giving me away to somebody. The whole dream he was like "It's completely ok, give him a chance. He deserves a person like you around." And I just kept staring at my husband from afar thinking he's the only one and I just can't go along with this. It was very upsetting.

*sighs* I hate that dreams like this can get me down. I wonder what the twisted message is that my brain is totally fucking up.

I read something interesting on another message board earlier this week relating to bad dreams. This was from someone who checks his oxygen intake levels frequently for medical reasons and he found that at times when his oxygen levels were below standard during the night he would have very disturbing dreams. When he went back to using his CPAP machine, which kept his oxygen level where it belonged, his dreams were less frightening.

Dreams can be really disturbing. I hope it fades quickly.

Yeah, really disturbing. I look forward to more silly dreams, like the time I dreamed the tenth Doctor was going to tie me up.

Strange, but the dreams weren't frightening. More gross and disturbing. I wonder if it could be something physical causing them, though?

I look up dream symbolism for fun, perhaps I'll do that for these.

I suspect that all sorts of mental processes are affected by physical changes in the body and we may rarely know exactly what's making what happen differently.

I've been furious or upset with people for things they did in my dreams.
It feels totally stupid when it happens, because I know it wasn't real but tve feelings can still stay longer than I think they should.

I always have very disturbing and depressing dreams right before I get my period. They're not scary, but they make me sad or angry, so much so that sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and just feel like punching something. The sad feelings linger on longer than the angry feelings and I think it doesn't help that I work from home and usually spend the day alone. I've started to go grocery shopping in the morning after those dreams, because at least that way I see other people

Last night I got a brain tumor that gave me epic musical talents. J didn't want me to get the tumor removed, because my newfound talent meant that I got to work with J's favorite musician. It was only after he realized that the tumor started to mess up with my cooking that he thought it might be necessary to have an operation.

Today is not the day I should be feeling irritated and sad, but yep, here I am. Time to go buy eggs soon and start kneading a dough.

Or do you mean strangling the dough?

Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
I do know the feeling though.

This happens, when I wake up and I tell Mister I had a bad dream he always asks, "was I Nega-Mister?" It's kind of a running joke because he's so fantastic to me. Nega-Mister is always a cold, mean jerk. It typically makes me sad for a day sometimes longer.

You're probably right.

Weird! You might be on to something with the period thing. Good luck with your dough, I am not great with that sort of thing.


In other news, I looked up the symbols and I'm always surprised with how strangely relevant they are.

My old job sent my W2 to my old address. Even though they had my new addy and my check stubs reflect this,way before I stopped working there. Now I have to either wait for them to send me a revised one or if I can,track the first one down.

Really didn't need this to happen to me !! I am effin furious right now.

Frick. So I have a spot on my face that’s turned out to be skin cancer. Just basal cell, no biggie. It’s quite common in the family and hardly surprising considering how fair skinned we are. At my surgical consult, the doc decided to go ahead and biopsy two other little spots.

The initial biopsy was on the bridge of my nose, quick and easy, no discomfort. These second two were on the alar crease and inner columella (mucosal tissue). Both places which are apparently far more sensitive than the bridge of one’s nose.

Local anesthetic MY ASS!

I may have…verbalized…one or two non pc words to the nurse who gave me the locals.

Oddly, she didn’t seem particularly surprised.

* * *

This was followed up the next day by a dental appt., of which I will spare you the details….

I may have…been a little crabby the last few days. Even the dogs have been avoiding me.

And I still can’t blow my damn nose.

It's good to read that your situation is treatable

A few years ago, I developed a frozen shoulder - unfortunately I was at a meeting at the other end of the country and had to drive back home in increasing pain. I went straight to the hospital and waited a couple of hours to be seen, by which time the pain was excruciating.

I had to have x-rays - the first two were ok-ish because I could keep my arm at my side. The nurse then looked at me pityingly and said they needed a shot with my arm raised and pushed backwards.

So I told her I would quite happily do that, but she wasn't to get upset about the language I would use. She said "No problem - you say what you want love, we won't listen". It must be part of nurse training

So sorry you had to hear that nasty C word but I'm glad to hear that it's quite treatable.

Last year when I had my surgery, I was given a push-button at bedside that would give me a little bit of narcotic pain-killer should I need it. I was a child of the 60s - what could possibly go wrong? I got so stoned that late on my first night in the hospital I made a pass at a pair of nurses who had come in to check on me.

I would hazard a guess that anyone who knows you would worry more if you didn't do this

I suspect little surprises nurses.

Apparently most of this doc's patients are elderly. Her nurse laughed when she was finished sticking me and said I'd be amazed at the language skills demonstrated by some of the little old ladies.

They started it by making a lewd suggestion. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Am I actually thirsty?

Is it just annoying-dry-mouth-med-side-effect?

Who knows?

But I suppose it doesn't matter since I can't get rid of it either way.

 

[DeepGreenEyes]

I can't keep anything down today.

Except the mood that's resulted from that.

Greedy bankers and lawyers. How is it that an entire family can agree with a change in a parent's will, a judge can agree as well, but the fucking bankers just can't let it go? This is absurd! Technically I'm the one giving, nobody is taking.

Just fucking cooperate!
:caning:

 

[DeepGreenEyes]

Well, that's wrethched.

Hope you feel better soon!

Thank you. I'm on the mend.

"Vertigo and nausea from middle ear infection."

I have had this periodically so its a relief to finally have an idea of what's going on, instead of "I just feel incredibly weird and I'm bumping into things and throwing up. But not like a stomach-bug throwing up," which just sounds like you've been drinking.

Typical stuff, comes and goes, I'll get over it.

Having a temperature of 40 degrees.

Having one of "those" customers, I have sent her colour swatches 3 times and she "just can't make up her mind" but wants the floggers before March.... the other side of the planet.

My daycare provider increased the tuition by $300/month without notice and now I have no babysitter. Career change?

Being monitored!
