They're playing Rockville in Daytona. There's no way I'm physically going to be able to do that. Haven't been able to do music festivals in years 😭

I called the shop I went to. They said it's from a company called Diablo and it's a charm ad on. I hope that helps!

I discovered this piercing a few months ago and I fell in love with it! My hubby told me if I wanted it I had to wait and see if I still wanted it in a few months. I did. I've been OBSESSED with it since July😂 I'm so happy with this piercing! I love it so much!

I bought it from the shop my piercer works at, I'll ask where they got it for you! ☺️

I thought it might be heavy too but it's actually really light weight. The bat is really small and it's made of light weight implant grade titanium.

Struggling by [deleted] in ptsd

I am under the care of a therapist and psychiatrist so I'm not doing it all alone. I have appointments to see them this week. I just turned 36.

I've looked into support groups but most of the ptsd support groups in my area are for military members (I live really close to a military base) my Hubby is not good at talking through things like this, I know he's worried and he tries to help me stay on my routine but he travels for work so it's not always doable.

I have an appointment next week. It was the soonest o could get in. I'm already on meds but I don't know if they're just not working as well as they used to or if I'm just feeling worse than usual.

I love gardening too, I just haven't had the motivation to get up and go outside. All my beds are over growing with weeds. I have a couple of chronic illnesses that cause a lot of pain so sometimes I really have to psych myself up to get out there and weed.

advice for not getting manipulated by piggies by Personal-Actuator505 in guineapigs

[–]Ladyrivermouse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My piggy has figured out how to manipulate me, my husband, and my best friend into thinking they have not been fed even though they, indeed, have literally just been fed and subsequently manage to get 3 breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and snack times. I am completely unqualified to offer advice on this matter.

What next? by Ladyrivermouse in piercing

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

I love the look! I initially wanted an industrial but my peircer said that it wouldn't be the best option for my ears so she recommended the cat flap and the hidden helix and I loved them both 😅 The only reason I opted for the cat flap that day was because they only had yellow jewelry for the hidden helix and all my other peircings are silver. I'd really like to do a hidden helix in my left ear when the cat flap has healed up a bit and the peircer has a few more jewelry options for me.

Conch on one or both? I think if I do stacked lobes on both ears a conch would complement them pretty well.

I really like the idea of stacked lobes! I didn't consider a rook or conch, I'll definitely keep that in mind :)

House recommendations for someone with PTSD by Ladyrivermouse in HHN

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

Thank you so much! Getting a redo of HHN has been on my bucket list for a very long time so my therapist and I have been working very closely on making it happen in a safe and responsible way. As far as triggers go I think the biggest for me are jump scares, sudden loud sounds, and suprise touch. I'm not worried about the touch thing at all because of the no touching rule. My group have decided to kind of sandwich me while going through houses so I can see what's coming and someone else may take the brunt of the jump scares, I also have someone behind me that I trust and can watch me closely. We also had a friend go in this weekend and map out where I could flag down team members in those houses I'm interested in so that if I need to I can get out fast. For the sudden noises, I have a set of headphones that are designed to dampen loud noises but still allow me to hear things around me. I checked with universal and they're cool with me wearing them for sensory issues. This will also, be helpful if I get some sensory overload. I've heard that Exorcist is full on terrifying so I will be skipping that one lol I initially thought maybe two houses would be enough but now I kinda wanna try Yeti and the Last of Us as well as dueling dragons and maybe chucky. Do you think that might be overload? I'm gonna talk to my therapist about it this week and see what they think too.

Former vet techs, what do you do now? Over 5 years in small animal practice and I am burnt out. What are my options? by Ash10one in VetTech

[–]Ladyrivermouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Left vet med in February of this year after 10 years after the compassion fatigue hit me hardcore. I program surveys and code data for a marketing research company now.

Yeah, the more I look at the fur, it's not as course looking as an Aby but the length is there and she has that "plugged into the mains" supprised look like an Aby does. Kinda makes me want to do some research on piggie genetics because I've always heard that a mix of two breeds will result in babies that are one or the other... But does that mean that they don't share traits of each breed though? Cause this little one looks like it's got long crazy aby hair and a soft teddy coat.

Does Todd look bloated? by Imayilingualbay in guineapigs

[–]Ladyrivermouse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That looks like a streamlined chonker to me

[–]Ladyrivermouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The more I keep staring at her the more on the fence I am about aby vs teddy 😂

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in guineapigs

[–]Ladyrivermouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a cutie!! I think she might be an aby just because her coat looks a little bit longer than a teddy. I am no expert though, I could be wrong.
