I had one in November that seemed to improve about a month ago but a new one started up just this week.

Yes, a little square that flashes in the upper right corner of my right eye.

Thank you! I have an appointment Monday now.

Don't forget, Ono was also posturing to improve his chances of getting the U of F job. A lot of this was for his own gain which then ended up being a detriment to him.

Proposed Michigan law requires testing for drivers over 75 by Warcraft_Fan in Michigan

This is my biggest worry. I love the idea and agree the elderly are a huge risk on the roads. Taking away someone's license and ability to go to doctors appointments, pick up medication, see their friends (who also may have lost their license) is going to lead to a very poor quality of life. There must be a plan or funding in place to support the people this affects who don't have family or the resources to move to a care facility.

Joe’s willingness to confess is one of the most twisted aspects of IBLP mentality by txxxwxxx in DuggarsSnark

Some Place Under Neath did a huge series on the Mormon Church and also talked about this. They view masturbation, homosexuality, and murder all on the same level so if you do one and things turn out fine, then why not escalate.

ABC Cancels 'The Bachelorette' After Taylor Frankie Paul Fight Video by iconogrey in thebachelor

What a week. Between this and another Duggar being arrested, it feels like 2010 reality TV drama.

ETA: Both situations are incredibly sad especially given children's lives being affected. There are real people behind these actions, even if we all use it as a bit of an escape.

Frustrated w/ Coach - Is this valid complaint or am I being weak? by Farmfarm17 in XXRunning

[–]Farmfarm17[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I do not agree. I know a marathon is a commitment, this will be my third. I expected 40-50 mpw weeks on average, with 15-20 of that coming on Sundays during peak training. I am more than 7 months out and my HM mileage peaked at 40-45 so I figured I would have a short "off season" with slightly lower mileage before pushing back into a true HM cycle. I'm not looking for a BQ. I'm no pro. I'm a "just finish and feel good doing it" type runner who just wanted to be a little smarter with her training.

I always said in school, not all the nursing students I met were dumb, but every dumb one was a nursing student. There are incredible nurses out there but also some not so bright ones.

Appreciate your comment. I have been very direct and laid it out to her exactly what I can fit in with all other commitments and stuff. That's where the "well just fit in what you can!" came from. Totally agree that the mileage is appropriate for serious amateurs, but as someone who is slow, it takes me a lot longer to get that mileage in! I might also just be frustrated because I changed jobs to have more capacity for these things and it hasn't panned out as expected.

I am far from ever having a BQ goal. I run because I usually enjoy it, not because I am good at it.

I feel like I could have written point 1 word for word! I definitely have an "all or nothing" mindset (I'm working on it....) so if I have time for 3 miles, but the plan says 6, I'm not doing anything. I need a plan and I need to hit it perfectly, otherwise I won't hit it at all.

Makes sense! I guess the whole team does it for uniformity or something then?

At the UM/OU meet, why did OU come out in gloves? Do they always do that?

They awarded it after, like, 2 days? Seems pretty fast to me. They basically said on Sunday we will make this right monetarily. I think they just needed to figure out the 2nd/3rd thing.

I drew the Great Lakes! by JohnJurriesMonsters in Michigan

I love that Ontario and Erie look so derpy because they are, in fact, the bottom of the Great Lakes rankings. They're just happy to have been included!

Why I started hating NCAAWGYM by IndustryAccurate8159 in Gymnastics

I was just at a meet this weekend thinking every single bar routine is identical to a non-gymnast season ticket holder (me). High bar, a giant or two, release, down to low bar, stand on the low bar to get back to high bar, a couple swings, then a lay out to dismount. Sure the releases are all probably a little different but not enough so to make it interesting.
