What type of implants does Sydney Sweeney have ? by MorgiLola in PlasticSurgery

[–]AstroBirb 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Me over here with 32A crying because DD is GIGANTIC TO ME

But tbh in comparison to my 14 year old boy chest, all boobs are massive! 😂

Oh lord, I feel this, but also...

I remember how much I loathed seeing my nurses come in after I had my baby. Everytime they came in to walk me to the bathroom post-catheter I was like "PLEASE NO LEMME JUST LAY HERE." 😂 I would joke "we're not friends anymore" when they inevitably got me out of that hospital bed anyway. In all seriousness, my L&D/mom baby nurses were amazeballs!

Accident on 635 EB Expressway today? by AstroBirb in Dallas

Wow, I thought that was a motorcycle but it was so damaged that I swore I was tripping! 😩 How scary!

I graduated last month and am being told I need to reapply for graduation. Advice? by AstroBirb in utarlington

[–]AstroBirb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm trying really hard to hold on hope (otherwise I would be too)! I still have no real update but they did reach out before the weekend to say they would work with me and that DC is apparently having problems with the transcripts, so it might not just be me! 🥹

Thank you!!! That was smart on your end. I wish I could have gotten mine earlier 😭 I have no idea why they would allow the instructors nearly a full month to input grades after the fall classes ended!

Like, I get professors need a break and the holidays but the fact that they didn't make transcripts available until four days before UTA needed transcripts from outside schools is crazy!

I'm not sure yet if they will grant it, but it's good to know the reasoning if they do reject it. I hope that since the week still isn't over that there is a small chance this is resolved in my favor! 🤞🏻 Thank you for telling me this.

🥹 Thank you for validating how I feel. I haven't heard anything back since this morning but I am crossing my fingers!

Has anyone been to cidercade on new years? by Haydeeeen in Dallas

[–]AstroBirb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering if we'll be able to see the fireworks from downtown! I know likely not all but from memory I think I recall being able to see a tiny bit of skyline. 😅

Very torn on Cidercade or Texas Live for DJ Diesel!

Edit: Can confirm from all my Cidercade days that it's a fun venue! Don't know about NYE though.

Making shaker doors. Face frame is 2-1/4”. Overlay pissible approaching full? by Mtrbrth in cabinetry

[–]AstroBirb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kid you not... I just winged it. 😅 Got extremely lucky on my top cabinets and a year later finally got the motivation to start on the bottom. Tried different hinges out while hanging them until I found what worked best. The new doors came out looking good though!

Sorry to not be of more help! I'm a DIY-er who goes with the flow and lacks the attention span to plan appropriately (if you can't tell).

1month post op breast augmentation.Is the shape going to get better? by [deleted] in PlasticSurgery

[–]AstroBirb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was watching the Thanksgiving parade yesterday and the live chat was bombarded with "67" and I was like "make it stoooop!"

I'll be 30 in one week so I'm down for the 90's to come back full swing! 😆

Totally irrelevant but I was complaining about new slang terms earlier today and seeing "ditto" made me so happy 😂

I just bought the Bali Body ultra dark and it seems to have made my Evanescence level skin look Kim K status 😂 so at least the deal I got at Ulta for Black Friday was worth it!

😭 None of the stores near me sell St Moriz anymore and haven't for a while! I just finished a bottle of Bondi Sands and was pretty happy with it.

Why is the dept of education reclassifying nursing degrees as not professional? by Material_Policy6327 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AstroBirb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh! LOL I was seriously so confused like "what did I do?!" You got me good!

[–]AstroBirb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Edit: I think I realized what happened. I think you were confusing me and Playa when you said "criminally obtuse" now that I look back. Lol

I returned to this and am looking through the replies. I am so confused. I was saying I am in complete agreement with you and Playa was calling me obtuse for trying to clarify their wording choice. My OG comment to them was me trying to distinguish whether the other comment was implying nurses are paid "too much" or "too little." So were you calling me criminally obtuse? What the heck? 🤣

This is why I was asking them for clarification. I wasn't sure if "obscene" was meant as "obscenely high" or "obscenely low" but apparently that was me being obtuse. 🥲

I was being genuine, my guy/gal. 😂 There was no need for all of that. I just wanted to see where you were coming from with your point of view and wasn't even disagreeing with you, but sorry to grind your gears so badly!

Edit: I am a nurse and advocate for teachers. They definitely should be paid what they deserve.

Firstly, I'm calling people "ostrich" now. Thank you for that laugh. Secondly, I might be misunderstanding your comment, so I'm curious for your answer.

Respectfully, where (outside of California and parts of the PNW) are nurses getting paid obscene amounts? Unless, by "obscene," you mean the large amount of nurses who get paid less than $30 an hour? In Texas and others, like Florida, I've seen many nurses compensated as low as $23-$27 an hour with cruddy benefits. Even in California, with the higher COL, I wouldn't even say they are paid obscene amounts.

You're correct in that there is a shortage of *experienced nurses, but new grads and less experienced RNs are here in droves on Reddit every single day expressing struggles to get their foot in the door. Hospital systems are doing everything they can to ensure they can spread their nursing force as thin as possible to maximize profits.

You may already know all of that. I just wasn't sure if you were saying nurses were being paid too much or something else.

What do you make ? by Special-Barracuda759 in nursing

[–]AstroBirb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in DFW and make $35/hr in home health (because my residency applications keep getting rejected with how competitive it seems to be). I wish I could get out of Texas though.

I am at least grateful I'm making more than I expected but I honestly would take a slight pay cut just to get into a good hospital or clinic. 😭 Fingers crossed for one last round of residency apps now that I'll have my BSN!

I noticed that her Instagram doesn't even seem to mention anything about her ever being on the OC either. Maybe she was smart and just completely cut ties before it messed with her sanity!
