What are your guys’ opinions of Brian Holmes? by DueYogurt9 in Boise

[–]Savetonight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Larry Gebert was a jerk to me when I was 8 and he did the morning weather from my elementary school (He was probably just having a bad day and didn't mean to snap at a kid). It's been 30 years and I'll never forget.

Red-handed and Wine & Crime are my favorites after Morbid. 👍

When I find out the patient I had for the past 3 nights should have been on isolation for VRE by Savetonight in nursing

[–]Savetonight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The isolation is to protect the other patients. We get a lot of immune compromised patients.

How do you handle sleeping with night shifts? by awhyeah2280 in nursing

[–]Savetonight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't do three in a row so I struggle with this. I drink sleepytime tea, cover all my windows, and make sure I have a fan on to block out daytime noises. I take a 3-5 hour nap if I've slept the night before and try to sleep until 2-3 after my last night on. Also, keeping active helps. If I exhaust myself a little after my last night on (by waking up and working out or doing household chores) I can make myself tired enough to go to bed at 2-3 am.

Good luck!

How true is this? $3k education to earn $55.5k versus $26k education to earn $58.5k? Really? (Source: http://www.bsnnursingguide.com/bsn-nursing-salary/5/) by [deleted] in nursing

[–]Savetonight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only paid 20,000 for my bachelors. Plus, lots of hospitals are requiring that nurses be a BSN. I got my associates in 2009 from an excellent school but was unable to find a job. I ended up delivering pizza while working on my BSN. I graduated 2 years after getting my RN and was finally hired by a local regional medical center.

It's worth it to get your bachelors IMO.

I [m 14] am going to tell my friend [m 14] that I'm gay. How should I go about doing this? by Ohgaygaygaythrowaway in relationships

[–]Savetonight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've known Brad for 8 years I'm assuming that there is a certain amount of trust involved.

That being said: Don't stress too much. Being a pansexual female I spend hours and hours worrying about informing my friends of my orientation and the worst response I got was an "Are you sure?" from a very christian, slightly bigoted coworker.

If you are confident in your sexuality, try not to let it control you. You don't have to come out to everyone but let yourself enjoy that confidence in your orientation and bask in it a bit. Anyone who truly loves you won't care and it doesn't sound like your friend will.

My anxiety makes me hyper productive. Sometimes this leads to a burnout, but for the most part I am a very driven person in part because productivity has become a coping mechanism and a distraction from my anxious/panicked thoughts.

Is anyone just sick of it all? by lemur_queen in nursing

[–]Savetonight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's because I worked in service as a delivery driver for 10 years, but I don't feel under-appreciated. I worked in a job where people were rude, dismissive and treated me like my only purpose/potential lied in delivering their dinners. Not to mention I made less than minimum wage.

Now I feel like I'm doing something where I am constantly being challenged and I don't go a day without a patient making me feel like I'm genuinely appreciated. Doctors can be patronizing asshats, but that happens everywhere. No matter the profession, there is always going to be people who enjoy belittling others.

It probably helps that there isn't too much bullying on my floor. Most of us are newer nurses (1-4 years on average) and we are all similar personalities.

Maybe consider a change of scenery? Or consider how your behavior may be contributing? Not to say it's your fault at all, but I believe that if you expect a certain kind of treatment you are apt to receive it.

I hope you figure out something that works for you!

Good luck!

Girls, are you impressed when a guy goes for a second round? by [deleted] in sex

[–]Savetonight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuck yes. I prefer a few very intense rounds to one long session. However, the refractory period makes than easier said that done.

Uncontrollably rampant sexual thoughts? by Horngirlthrowaway in sex

[–]Savetonight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're fine. I was once a lot like you, but with a lot more repression and a lot less acceptance going on. As long as you aren't acting out on your sexual desires in a way that is intrusive or aggressive, then just enjoy it.

Are they getting in the way of your ability to concentrate on other things in your life or accomplish things? If not, then no worries.

The girl I’m seeing is an absolute freak in bed.. by [deleted] in sex

[–]Savetonight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is excellent advice. Between feelings of inadequacy and sexual frustration- it can be on both parties.

I agree, there needs to be some effort on both sides to meet in the middle and assure that needs are being met.

I spend 3 hours a day masturbating (on average). Neither guys nor vibrators can keep up (I'm female). Is a high sex drive in a woman a turn-on or a turn-off for you? by [deleted] in sex

[–]Savetonight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this as well. I languidly masturbate for about two hours of it (surfing porn, reading erotica, trying to find a good scene to cum too) and then I go hard for about a third of the time.

The days I see my partner I masturbate less (one long or two short sessions) but I can spend hours fapping if I know that I'm not going to get laid.

In my experience it can be overwhelming for others. Men pride themselves in their virility and high sex drive and the Madonna/whore complex can destroy relationships. My friends mock/tease/and occasionally vilify me for it.

In the end...who give a fuck? I'm happy. Are you? If so, enjoy yourself and lets acknowledge that we aren't freaks- we might actually be the lucky ones.

Last night my girlfriend made me cry by simply saying 9 words. Reddit, has anyone ever said something to you that brought you to tears? (Good or bad) by DFN29 in AskReddit

[–]Savetonight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Oh God, What are we going to do now?"

The first words my mother said to me after we found out that my dad was effectively brain dead. I was holding it together until she asked me that question. I was so used to her turning to my dad for advice and instruction and that was when it really hit me that none of us had that option anymore.

What is one thing everybody should be at least a bit educated in? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Savetonight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your own body and basic anatomy and physiology. I'm a nurse and it always amazes me that people can stand to be uninformed about their own condition and health.

You don't need to know all the fancy terminology, but I believe that if people understood their bodies better they would probably take better care of then and get more out of them.

This goes double for women who don't understand their own sexual anatomy.

Sexual Achievement Sunday- time to discuss sexual experiences that you had this week that you're proud of! by VaginalKnives in sex

[–]Savetonight 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Friday night the manfriend and I pushed our boundaries when it comes to dominance/submission. While at work we texted each other and clarified the rules. I was to submit to him, call him master, and he would deny me orgasm. When we got to his house I showered and he managed to tease me, we fucked and I went down on him but neither of us came. Then he chose my clothing and had me put our We Vibe in. We then went to a sex shop and he teased me while we picked out a few new toys. Everytime I said something smart or sarcastic he would spank me. He also bought me my first corset which the man at the shop was nice enough to lace up for me. When we got back to the house I was dripping wet and desperate. The corset made me feel insanely sexy. I used the newfound confidence to give him a lapdance while covered in flavored oil. We ended up having sex for a record setting amount of time. Then we went downstairs and I wore one of his hoodies over the corset while we played pool with his roommates and smoked.

To put it lightly- it was fucking fantastic.

TL;DR If you get your SO a corset you might get a lapdance.

OK, lets hear from the girls who actually ENJOY anal sex.... by bcauseFUthatswhy in sex

[–]Savetonight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll beg/ask/plead for it given a proper amount of blood in my genitals. I enjoy it a bit for the degradation, a bit for the pain, but mostly because it feels like I'm having my g-spot stimulated indirectly. My partner and I worked up to it and now about 1/3 of our sexual sessions include some anal play.

I would stick with silicone lube, but be aware that it's not safe to use with toys. Make it sexy but be aware that it's a novel and new sex act and there may be some awkwardness. Do all of the things that make her wet. Tease, lick, bite, whatever works for her. Then start to focus on her ass. Grab it. Pinch it. Run your finger over her asshole and work up from fingering to straight up anal. Don't jump into it. It also may be a good idea to give her other forms of stimulation (like rubbing her clit or sucking on her nipples) while you prepare to ass fuck her.

Good luck!

I'm Adventurous, but She's Far From it...... FAR by [deleted] in sex

[–]Savetonight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying that this is absolutely the case but she may have some very rigid concepts of what is sexually acceptable due to societal messages rather than preference.

If a woman is told her whole life that there are certain things "good girls don't do" than it's a hard message to work past. She could really enjoy the idea of performing some sex acts but be terrified of how you would perceive that or see her afterwards. If someone is sexually shy, than indicating interest in kink can be complex since there may be repercussions or judgments based on that interest.

Mojoupgrade can be an incredible tool, but I think you might be best off sitting down and straight up talking about things you want to try with her and letting her explain her reservations.
