General Dissatisfaction

  • Woke up Sunday morning to the sensation of something sharp in my mouth, and spitting out hard crunchy things.

    Call the dentist on Monday. Appointment for Tuesday.

    Go in today.

    "Ah yes, your wisdom tooth that came in sideways shattered."

    "Ah."

    "I will grind it down so it's poking your cheek less, but you need to get an appointment with the oral surgeon."

    *grinding sounds and nearly choking on my own teeth dust*

    Front desk

    "Ah, the oral surgeon is booked to hell. Soonest for a consultation is in a month. Call us if something changes between now and then, and we'll give you a referral to a surgeon that's less booked."

  • D: Teeth bad, no longer do good tooth thing.

    Two weeks until finals and I decide to start Lusternia back up again; cue ignoring papers and portfolios so that I can relearn how to set mudlet back up. Clearly I'm making excellent life choices this soon before graduation.

    We've missed you @Aonia but definitely take care of yourself first.   We'll still be here shoving cookies at Ruin. <3

    Sorry that Czixi and I have been around less the past couple of weeks! Deadlines, illness and Giant Life Events have bogged me down, but things are getting back to normal now.
    We'll still be here, promise. Allie has to break the second Name curse. ;)

  • You know that feeling when you're waiting and waiting and waiting and you've actually got time so the waiting drags out even longer? That's where I'm at. I'm so tired of being frustrated about waiting endlessly. I'm tired of hearing it on my own head.

  • Woke up dizzy to the point of nausea. Got a doctor's appointment with someone who wasn't my primary (but still on my insurance) and it turns out...my ears were so full of wax it was impacting my dizzy...abilities. Oh, words.

    Which my primary refuses to look at. She won't do ear cleanings ever, despite us both knowing I get terrible ear wax. >:( So now I have to go to an ENT because the wax was so bad that they couldn't get it out at the other doctor's office.

    But they got enough out I'm not throwing up dizzy anymore.

    For what it’s worth, you made the right call going to an ENT. I didn’t have insurance when I had the same condition and went to a nearby minute clinic, which blasted my ear with water irrigation. What followed was a bunch of super fun ear infections, which eventually led me to an ENT anyway! Sometimes a specialist is the right call.

  • Oh no, see. They did blast it with water. And scrapped them. It's so impacted that still did nothing, so to the ENT for...better...ear blasting? D:

    <3 They probably have you on better after ear care than I did. May you feel less dizzy and much better!

  • I'm sure they'll just pour a nice, mild acid or peroxide into your ear to break it up chemically if irrigation isn't working. <_<
    I'm Lucidian. If I don't get pedantic every so often, I might explode.
  • So I'm pretty sure my mudlet profile got corrupted. Maybe its fixable I don't know - but even loading old versions of the profile didn't fix it (was acting like it didn't recognize the prompt so defup stuff queue wasn't working). So I've gone down the rabbit hole of setting up a new profile and trying to remember all the options I had and even where/how to set them. This sucks and is awful and I hate it.

    It is the absolute worst. My sympathy.

    I dread the day that happens to me again and I just quit the game for a year or two. Again. Hope you get it worked out without too much agony. :'(

    Thanks to server side curing for saving a lot of the potential headache of needing and reconfiguring a full system. Most of my own aliases I recovered too. Scavenging add-on packages and figuring our settings will be lingering pain but manageable.

    edit: To make this a dissatisfaction. The 4 hours of sleep because I stayed up late to fix and my asshole cat then woke me at 6. Will be a fun day at work. Coffee get me through today.

    Man, I hear you. When I first returned to Lusternia, I had to move from MUSHclient to Mudlet, which I never really figured out. Now I’m on Nexus and still slowly piecing a set of reflexes together. SSC is an absolute game changer, as is path tracking.

  • My mudlet profile corrupts occasionally when I leave it open too long. Usually going back a day or so gives me an uncorrupted one so there might be something salvageable?
  • School: A rant

    So the entirety of the semester we focused on Linux, network ports/services, and pretty basic scanning. Midway through our prof asked us to teach one topic each, so that he could 'focus on creating a final'. We agreed. End of the semester, the Sunday before finals, he announces that he hasn't finished it, but our final is going to be breaking into this box that this website just came out with. "Don't worry, it'll be easy."

    Ok... except that it's entirely about Windows, has nothing to do with anything else from all semester, and was assigned - seemingly - to address a complaint from ONE student who wanted to do more on Windows. Which... that'd have been nice, if we didn't have to teach ourselves all the information in literally three days. And if you've never done pentesting, let me assure you: It's a ton of information. There's no easy answers for how to do anything, just reading, more reading, figuring out command-line options, and then trying something else because nothing you're doing is working and you have no idea why because it could be anything.

    In. Three. Days. Meanwhile, I was the only person dumb enough to agree to do a research paper/presentation and give it that same week. I stayed up for days straight trying to force myself to keep reading and not fall asleep.

    Really, though, I'm not even mad about having to do it because I like the material... just angry it's graded and nothing about it felt fair, at all.
  • One month of waiting to see the oral surgeon at the dentist's office, to be told they can't do anything at this office, and I need a referral to a different oral surgeon.

    Because I'm going to be knocked out, since they need to break teeth bones and stuff to get the shattered wisdom tooth out.

    Fuuuuuun times. Consultation on the 23rd. So a better turn around on that than this last visit. *sigh*

    Was kind of sick and am now quite sick. Basically just sleeping at all opportunities I get unless I'm too restless to stay asleep, so might not log in for long or at very weird times.
    I'm only here because I caught the flu and was sick of being in bed alone all the time. Hi. I'm still not over it. :( get better very soon.

  • In continuation of my general work suckiness (highly technical term), I misread my hours on clocking out previously, and almost freaked out when I saw I was just below 50 hours clocking out tonight, with six more hours left on my work week. Sigh.
    I really do need the money though.
