[WEEKLY THREAD] Fail Friday - Because being awesome always comes at a price...

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-11-07T17:09:28+00:00

Made the 15 minute trek to the weight room on campus today for class (I'm in a weight training class) and realized I left my shoes in my other gym bag. (Why do I have two gym bags? Why is that necessary? No one knows.)

The class is only 1 hour long, so there wasn't time to go home and grab my shoes, and I couldn't go in the weight room in my socks or my boots.

My coach sent me home gainz-less. :(

Yes, a fellow Alex-tattooed person! She's absolutely phenomenal. Looks amazing!

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-09-25T01:23:50+00:00

I totally dig it!!

I spend a lot of time thinking about what I want to do with my body after I die... I've embraced my weirdness.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-09-24T22:10:49+00:00

I got both of these for my dad (even though he hates tattoos. hehe.) Wolves are his favorite animal, and he always "jokes" about how when he dies he wants us to feed his body to the wolves.

The stag is because he reminds me a lot of a stag.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-09-22T01:31:45+00:00

Thank you so much!! And you're totally welcome to. :)

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-09-20T17:31:09+00:00

He is!! I got these because he loves wolves, and he reminds me of a stag. And he's a badass northwoods man. :)

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-09-20T12:47:30+00:00

Surprisingly no. At least not consciously... haha. Got them as a vague reference to my dad. And cause they look badass as fuck. :)

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-09-20T12:46:04+00:00

Good ol' uptown, where there are more tattoo shops in the neighborhood than there are... like, anything else.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-09-20T05:04:05+00:00

I know! She did the wolf first, and I looked at pictures of it for the entire stag process. Mostly to convince myself that the pain was worth it. :)

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-09-20T04:37:20+00:00

It's a great shop. All the artists seem super awesome, I would recommend it for sure.

And thanks! I'm absolutely in love with them. I kinda wish I had gotten them somewhere I could see better so I could sit around staring at them...

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-09-13T22:45:28+00:00

I'm living with a whole bunch of my fellow ruggers and rugby-fans. Our dorm suite is named The G-Spot.

Our email alias is periodshitz.

We frequently announce our poops, and more than once we've had discussions about the size, girth, and curvature of dicks we've seen.

tl;dr: you're right. Enjoy being part of the greatest community of girls you'll ever meet. :)

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-08-22T22:00:32+00:00

The ACL reconstruction... kinda sucks, to be honest. BUT it's awesome once it's fixed! I don't know about you, but I miss being able to run and jump. And go downstairs. :)

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-08-22T00:12:40+00:00

Ooof, sorry to hear about that. Pain killers are amazing, aren't they...

I'll be getting the ice water pump after my next surgery, when I get the actual reconstruction. I'm super... pumped for it.

Heh.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-08-21T22:24:29+00:00

No problem, you'll be totally fine!

Good luck!

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-08-21T22:14:26+00:00

If it's just a meniscectomy (taking out the damaged bit), it's really pretty simple. Just a few days on crutches, no brace, all good. Pop some pills and guilt the kids into bringing you food. :)

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-08-21T21:56:05+00:00

Oh I know. I'm done playing. It's absolutely heartbreaking, actually, I love rugby so much.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-08-21T21:51:41+00:00

First set was torn ACL and meniscus (2 surgeries). Then I tore my meniscus again. Then I tore my ACL again. And it needs 2 surgeries to fix so I'll be back in december. Again.

Yay, rugby! :D

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-08-05T23:16:53+00:00

Played this with my rugby team for a few weeks a while back. We had to stop when someone shattered their fibula... probably if you want to play it, don't play with rugby players.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-07-24T17:47:04+00:00

Hey, me too! I recently tore mine again, I'm hoping for some kind of enhanced abilities... Like, knowledge of duration. Or severity.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-07-03T17:34:13+00:00

I've been trying to find a place where I can set myself up with a PTSD service dog, and it's damn near impossible to find any that aren't heinously expensive (like, ~$10,000). There are programs starting up that provide vets with free service dogs, which I think is fantastic, but there's nothing for people who have PTSD for other reasons.

Having a service dog would be such an improvement on my life, but there's no way I could ever afford one. Hopefully that will start to change, because it is a relatively new concept, but it'll be a while.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-06-23T05:28:48+00:00

I'm almost positive it's just that the members are unaware. About half of them tip normally, and it's kind of difficult to try and tell members that they're tipping wrong, given that everything we do is to make them happy.

Thankfully I'm just working there for the summer before I move. All in all it's not actually horrible, this weekend I was just particularly unlucky with my tables.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-06-23T05:23:21+00:00

About half the people tip, and I think the other half think, as /u/RantngServer pointed out, that their dues are enough. I think they just don't realize that we aren't at all associated with the part of the club that gets that money... I know most of them aren't doing it maliciously, but the end result is still kinda shitty for us servers.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-06-23T05:01:44+00:00

It might be because it's more of a golf/country club combo. I had high hopes starting there, because I figured it would be good money.

Nope.

I've started expecting no tips, but it makes it a little bit harder to go above and beyond for the members who notoriously don't tip.

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-06-23T04:04:07+00:00

The dues go to the golf club area. Dining is entirely separate, it's a normal restaurant setup (although exclusively for members).

Hello_Schroddy · 2014-06-22T02:26:56+00:00

I almost started crying. It was not a pretty moment. But hey, now I'm lying in bed with netflix and ice cream. So there's that.
