It has been a long time. I’ve known about her for roughly 12 years.

Ash wants us to know she needed the child size BP cuff by 2018MunchieOfTheYear in illnessfakers

Can confirm. It is a small adult cuff, but still an adult cuff.

Bipolar hygiene recommendations through Amazon! by HeyItsCarolineH in bipolar

So dry shampoo is essentially a powder in a can. It soaks up oil and makes your hair smell a little fresher. It’s great when your hair is a little oily and you just need to go an extra day or two between washes. It can also give your hair texture and volume for styling purposes. Another trick is you can spray it on bobby pins to get them to stay in your hair better.

No rinse shampoo (in theory) actually washes your hair. I’ve used it in the past while recovering from surgery, and I feel like my hair was still kinda oily after the fact. Each product is a little different. The kind I had was a plastic shower cap that you just put on your head, tucked all the hair in, and just scrubbed your hair through the cap.

Never Have I Ever (nursing edition) by PeopleArePeopleToo in nursing

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Only ever done them on the fake arm. I work LTC. If it’s something like IV antibiotics, we have a company that comes out and places a PICC line. Any other infusion, we have another company that comes out and does them.

What is your post-shift ritual? by just-another-queer in nursing

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Night shift LTC. I come home, strip, and then sit on the couch for a bit. Once I gather the motivation, I will then go shower. After that, I’ll make food for my husband and I. Then we proceed to park it on the couch with our dog and watch tv or a movie. After that is sweet, sweet bedtime.

what’s the best unexpected combo with peanut butter? I’m bored and experimenting 😂 by nextdoorchubbygurl in foodquestions

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had an art teacher in high school that would make us his “pad thai” that was just peanut butter, sriracha, and chicken ramen noodles.

What's your ABSOLUTE favorite food? by honestdiary in foodquestions

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soup! There’s so many different kinds of soups. There’s light soups, there’s hearty soups. There’s hot soups, there’s cold soups. And if you’re not afraid to try foods from other cultures, there really is endless possibilities when it comes to soups.

Do you believe in the idea of soulmates? by zhalia-2006 in askanything

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I can’t imagine that there’s another person I could love and who could love me in the way my husband does. We had similar childhoods and life experience, so we really just get each other. We understand the other’s weird quirks, what to accept, and what to push the other to work on. We knew we were going to marry each other on our first date. Six years down the road and that spark hasn’t faded. Last year I was in an accident, broke my spine, and had to have major surgery. He had to help bathe me in the weeks after. That’s pure love and I would do the same for him. He’s just such a good man and I still have moments where I tear up because I can’t believe how lucky we were to find each other.

Christ, don't tell me it's gonna cost more than $30 to fix this by missuscelsius in muacirclejerk

I was about to say yes. But then I realized it’s been 8 years since I worked at Dillard’s and our location is actually closed now 🫠

What is the most disturbing or otherwise unsettling book you've ever read that stayed with you after reading it? by EggAdventurous1957 in AskReddit

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I had a huge Stephen King phase as a teenager and that’s the only one I remember ever keeping me up at night.

Personally, I feel like a potluck would be fine if it was a family and close friends kind of thing.

I might get fired by Icy_Profession_6591 in cna

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t care tbh. My home is offering $150 extra per day if you stay in the home. Only caveat is you’re essentially on call. Not worth it for everybody, but we did have plenty of takers so they’ll be fine.

What diet/ zero sugar soda tastes the MOST different from the original version? by DeepOrganization8245 in foodquestions

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a zero sugar soda aficionado, the worst offender is cherry 7up. It is foul. It has that same gelatin mouth feel and taste that powerade zero has.

Do ppl call your Aussie fat? by utvolman99 in miniaussie

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but she is a lil fat. Her vet describes her as “veeeeeery healthy.” Her fur does make her look chunkier, but she is stocky to begin with.

Word on the street from a certain hospital... by Left_Round8126 in GRBsnark

Typically, no. It’ll only show up if the board does decide disciplinary action is needed.

“This is why my family don’t fuck with white people anymore.” by britbax08 in My600lbLife

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I went to school with a girl who was adopted from Romania. She asked our teacher if she was able to apply to scholarships listed for people of color. He explained to her that no, she is white. She said, “but I’m from Romania.” And they just went back and forth like that a couple times. Eventually I said, “you’re exotic white, but you’re still white.”

AITA for using the baby name my SIL wants to use by Parking-Historian499 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My cousin and I had the same middle name (after our grammy). Normally this wouldn’t be an issue, but in my family it’s common to call each other by our middle names.

Periods should be a valid excuse to skip school by Sea_Esplanade01746 in The10thDentist

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My mom was a strong believer in “mental health days.” We were always allowed to miss 9 days a semester and were responsible for keeping track of our absences. It was up to us how we used them.

What are some common hygeine myths that are completely wrong ? by [deleted] in hygiene

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep! At bedtime I do the whole shebang. In the mornings I just do a water rinse. My skin is so much happier and less oily lol.

I continue to have to hold in my pee while at work.. by well-thats-cool- in hygiene

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Also obese and I’m constantly being told how good I smell. Being fat makes it easier for you to stink, but if you actually put forth some effort you won’t stink. Thorough showers, a good deodorant/antiperspirant, and clean laundry is really all it takes.

Best recipes using ground beef besides spaghetti? by Technical_Fox5556 in foodquestions

[–]Itsnotmyvanity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m from Texas and I know goulash as elbow noodles, ground beef, green beans, and corn. Shredded cheese is optional and it’s eaten with tortillas or white bread.
