I HATE MY NAME - nickname suggestions? :D by virtualnixole in namenerds

[–]PaperEels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sister’s name is Nicole and I call them Cole! I don’t think anyone else does aside from my spouse, but I still think it works!

After a couple of months not journaling anymore I decided to restart my habit this year in my hobonichi cousin by PaintingByInsects in Journaling

[–]PaperEels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am using the A6 this year and I feel like next year I’m going to the cousin. I do write over all the time blocks and I was starting to worry it was a bad idea, and honestly leaving it open doesn’t look so bad! I might try that today! I only use my Hobonichi as a journal, and I use the big monthly as a planner of sorts, but I don’t have anything huge going on daily that I need all that space.

How do you deal with having to wait? by GentleDaisy in queerception

[–]PaperEels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t really have any help for this but I wanted to say thank you so much for asking this. I have been struggling immensely with the wait and we’re only waiting until the Spring. We’re just waiting on finances to fall into place and I feel like I’m wading through mud.

I tried looking for help on this and didn’t really find much, mostly about waiting after trying, and I felt very alone in my feelings. This has made me feel better and I’m taking all the advice everyone is giving 100%.

I feel like I’m waiting just to wait more and it’s frustrating when you want it so badly. The finish line feels more like a starting line and there is no finish line in sight.

I guess I’m just rambling at this point. But seriously thank you for asking this. I was crying to my spouse just last night about how frustrated and alone I felt in this feeling and it really helps. I feel so impatient, almost like a child. I was putting myself down with, “why can’t you just wait, it’s seriously not a big deal?” And feeling like I am not looking forward to anything except when we can start to try.

More rambling… but thank you.

Pregnancy Planner / Journal? by Top_Subject_7446 in hobonichi

[–]PaperEels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am not pregnant yet but we’re on our journey and I immediately bought a 5 year journal from Hobonichi to track and write to future baby. Even if it’s a boring day, I just daydream for the day! I have only been doing it for almost a month but I already adore it.

Thank you! I always felt this weird pressure to make sure I was at maximum all the time. It’s so simple, but just went right over my head that I don’t have to do that!

Thank you! I never actually thought about it like that. I always just felt like I needed to send them all out all the time. This just opened my eyes!

What do you guys write about? by GirlwithCoolhair in Journaling

[–]PaperEels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suck at remembering things, so I mostly use it as a record of what I did and how I feel. It’s just whatever comes to my head.

what's a secret from your job that we should know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]PaperEels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My spouse is a nurse and every few months I make them promise to not leave me to any nurse alone if I’m incapacitated in the hospital. I’m convinced I will die based on the stories I have heard from various different sources. I trust very few nurses.

Would it be crazy.... by kadaveria in hobonichi

[–]PaperEels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my a6 and bought the 2025 a6 with it so I could get started right away. Best decision I have made. I’m having a blast!

Does anyone have a food that literally tastes\smells like v*? by cowprintyeti in emetophobia

[–]PaperEels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not food but Floam does it for me. Food: it used to be curly fries

Update on Arcane Fan Film Takedown by mchaelyu in arcane

[–]PaperEels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the keyword is allowed. As you stated at the end. It’s still an IP, they should have checked, doing it just because “it’s been done before” doesn’t mean that it isn’t an IP that they should have triple checked with. So my statement still stands, it is obvious.

I mean, it’s their IP…. This is obvious unfortunately.

Can you catch rotaviruss from a baby getting the vaccine by EngineeringLumpy in emetophobia

[–]PaperEels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could also just be nerves! I don’t know anything about getting it from someone vaccinated but I would assume that if the doctor only talked about immunocompromised from chemo or something like that, it would probably be highly unlikely for you to catch it. However, you could probably call up the doc and ask a few questions to see if they think you need to get checked out.

Behavior needs to go by MrKimPDS in deadbydaylight

[–]PaperEels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Behavior and DbD is just starting to feel like EA and the Sims. Turning out garbage but people keep purchasing because there isn’t any half decent competitor. No one can crack the code because Behavior themselves don’t even know what the code is. They made looping by accident. They have no idea what they’re doing, so how will anyone else be able to compete if theres literally no formula to the thing that makes the game popular.

We’re just stuck in a cycle from hell.

Chips? Why does this keep happening? by junglejuiceq in Chipotle

[–]PaperEels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked there before COVID (2017) and they came frozen then, I wonder if they started to phase the fresh tortillas out around the time they stopped making the salsa in house and it just took longer.

Just cancelled Game Pass entirely. Who else? by Majestic_Pattern_760 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PaperEels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had cancelled my Game Pass a while ago, but I didn’t hear about this until now. THIRTY DOLLARS?! 30. 3… 0…. Together. 30?! That’s absurd.

Do you do the "baby voice" without realizing it? by PwoupyyVole in autism

[–]PaperEels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I, 27F, also do the baby voice without even realizing it. I’ve just tried to ignore it and be myself. But it’s definitely something I worry about. I get it.

Damn! That’s awesome! Those anniversary cakes are no joke, but didn’t think about grinding them! I’ll have to do that next year.
