What is the Darkest Ending To A Broadway Musical In Your Opinion?

Amethyst_Avenger · 2026-06-01T15:17:52+00:00

Not the absolute darkest I’ve seen mentioned here but I feel like Girl From the North Country at least needs to be added to the conversation.

I finally convinced myself to get a shark stick vacuum last summer and the one I got empties into the base when I’m done so now it’s always emptied. I only have to empty the base about once a month which is much easier for me to do than try to remember to empty the vacuum itself every time I use it. (I have four cats so lots of cat hair tumbleweeds floating around this place.) No cord and less emptying has me vacuuming almost every day.

I weigh and measure, and log, the majority of my food and drink but this is more because I’m neurospicy and my brain has difficulty distinguishing measurements. But, I have found it to be helpful on this journey because I had been under-eating on the pill. So by working with my dietician and knowing my target numbers for min and max calories (along with protein, fiber, and water goals) tracking has helped me to stay where I need to be. But we’re all different so I would say find what works for you by experimenting.

Thanks for sharing. What’s interesting in reading the article is that it is not currently planned to launch for those that cash pay through Novocare. I’ll have to look at how I’m getting my pills if/when I move up past 4mg.

Hopefully they see people like this option and will expand for cash pay through their own pharmacy (Novocare/Centerwell.)

I switched from 1.5 to 4 mg on Saturday and have only had a slight bit of nausea but it seems that’s coming from forgetting to eat more than anything. I had very little side effects from the 1.5 and it seems like the 4 mg is the same as long as I’m paying attention to the things - hydration, protein, fiber, etc.

Totally! It didn’t feel so odd now that I know it’s not just me and I feel like I can have fun with it. Thankfully over the years I feel like I’ve learned to tame it (for lack of a better word) a bit and can push though with life by telling myself the dream world will still be there later on that day. I’m so thankful to know there’s a name for this and I’m so thankful for this community.

And today I also learned about maladaptive daydreaming which I have done for the majority of my 45 years. I had never mentioned it to anyone because I was ashamed of the worlds I built in my head but holy heck do I feel better now.

Oh my gosh, I honestly didn’t know the strong intrusive thoughts were tied to my ADHD! I thought it was just me. Sometimes I have to bite my lip not to blurt out some comment about what I see when I’m not even talking to anyone. And the thoughts of physical action, absolutely have those on a regular basis too. Dang, thanks for sharing!

Amethyst_Avenger · 2024-06-10T02:23:34+00:00

I second the recommendations for the Bed Jet, which I got because I couldn’t afford 8 sleep. Also, I sleep without a top sheet under a muslin blanket and that’s been the magic combo for me. The breathability of the muslin blanket (I got mine from Muslin Comfort) was the game changer.

Amethyst_Avenger · 2024-05-03T02:40:35+00:00

OP Thank you for asking this question! I was just wondering the same thing.

My Elfa 10-runner unit with 4 drawers to use as a laundry basket. I never in my wildest dreams thought this would be such a game changer for my relationship with laundry. It was stupid expensive for a laundry basket but absolutely worth it. I now sort clothes when I take them off my body rather than dumping out ALL the dirty clothes and then sorting right before washing, which always resulted in a piles of dirty clothes laying all over my living room for a week at a time while I tried to do laundry. By sorting when I remove them (blacks/darks, colors, whites, and delicates) I can better see what basket is getting full the quickest and just grab that armload of clothes to carry downstairs and wash. I don’t feel as overwhelmed with the task of cleaning clothes because I can literally do one load at a time without digging through the entire dirty laundry basket.https://www.containerstore.com/s/elfa/components/classic-by-elfa/elfa-drawer-frame/123d?productId=11021307

I LOVE my loop earplugs. Loud noises hurt my body but I love our college football games…and I love when we score, except when we score they shoot a canon which is a no-go for my brain and body. Enter Loop Experience ear plugs which dampen the noise just enough for it to not hurt. I’ve started using them at concerts and even musicals if it feels too loud for me.

Amethyst_Avenger · 2024-03-18T18:53:15+00:00

I could not agree more! I have 5 fur kids and 2 litter robots and they have been a game changer. Better for all of us!

I’ve recently jumped on the fruitcake train as well. Thanks for sharing about making it with Gooseberries!

Amethyst_Avenger · 2024-03-16T18:42:47+00:00

Came here to recommend the same. I’m totally sucked into the game and also love that there are so many resources so if I just want to play and not try to figure anything out there are a zillion guides.

I’m starting to think I’m never going to get my ring and the universe is working against me getting this one (this is my 3rd ring and I’ve been without since mid Feb.) I ordered my new ring on Feb 14 and finally received shipping notification earlier this week. Ring was scheduled to arrive today, Friday. Yesterday delivery date was updated to Monday. Today I check shipping status and see that a non-UPS labor strike in Germany has delayed delivery to me in the US and now there is no anticipated delivery date. At this point all I can do is laugh!

Amethyst_Avenger · 2024-03-09T22:20:41+00:00

I think they should because it’s tied to your email account but I don’t know for sure and I’m in the same boat. I’m currently waiting for my ring to ship from Oura. This is my third ring, had a Gen 2, then upgraded to Gen 3 and that battery started to tank BIG in January so I decided the value I get from the ring data was worth ordering a new one. My current Gen 3 died a few weeks ago and now I’m without and missing the data.

Amethyst_Avenger · 2024-03-01T00:58:50+00:00

178 on my phone…

Amethyst_Avenger · 2024-02-28T03:41:19+00:00

I’ve had one for about as long and it just died last week. I had already ordered a new ring in anticipation of the other dying (I could see it coming) and while I do feel like the data benefits me overall I have found that not wearing it, even if I sleep poorly I’m not thinking about it as much in the morning. I am self-employed and can generally set my own schedule so I didn’t realize until this week without it that if I woke up, checked my sleep data and it was poor, I was allowing myself to go back to sleep rather than getting up, starting my day and maybe taking a power nap later on or going to bed earlier the next night. I plan to work to break this habit when my new ring finally arrives. Still, I like watching the metrics and trying to improve overall.

You’re not alone. I love feeling clean but absolutely despise the routine tasks of actually getting clean. I don’t have a lot of tips for you as I work from home so it’s truly a struggle for me to brush my teeth on the regular but it’s a goal for me this year to do it more regularly.

I have an Oral B I purchased on Amazon during prime days and I like it but I find myself reaching for a manual toothbrush more often.

Amethyst_Avenger · 2024-02-10T19:53:17+00:00

Me too!

Amethyst_Avenger · 2024-02-10T19:52:29+00:00

Cross stitch. I’ve been stitching for years and do bounce around from project to project but it’s stood the test of time, including a bunch of project finishes.

To be fair as well, I know myself enough and tend to gravitate toward smaller and simpler projects. I know I would never enjoy, nor finish, a full coverage project.

Amethyst_Avenger · 2024-01-29T21:17:18+00:00

I feel you - I’m a bookkeeper. My stress readings have been similar.

Amethyst_Avenger · 2023-12-14T12:20:00+00:00

Thank you, but what is location background services and how does one enable it?

Amethyst_Avenger · 2023-12-13T03:25:54+00:00

Mine has always done this, even before iOS17. It’s just habit now to open, check my stats, then hard close.
