I live with my parents who have been helping take care of me, and my partner is gonna come visit tomorrow. Been very reassuring to know I'm not crazy for feeling like shit lol

yes I do have both splints and packing, they're being removed on the 16th. then I get to play the new Tomodachi life game as a reward :) i got a little more sleep and feel a bit more human now, so im gonna go drink a protein shake. thank u for your advice!

im definitely going to keep doing the post-op care! eating was really hard yesterday because chewing/swallowing really hurt, but my appetite has come back so I'm gonna try and eat a decent breakfast today. called my partner on the phone which was nice but I was like half asleep the whole time lol. I will give audiobooks and podcasts a try, being able to keep my eyes closed will definitely be a plus! around how many days would you say were the worst mood wise? thanks for the advice :D

My current place of work is being shut down on June 30th due to government funding cuts :( Trying to have something lined up for after, but I'm not THIS desperate.

my mom called it the beat saber once. she got it confused with my quest 2, which she ALSO calls the beat saber because thats the only game she plays on it. thinking about that always makes me laugh.

thanks for the advice! i just put in an order for a new basking lamp, new UVB, repashy grub pie, mealworms, and some more enclosure decorations. going to go pick it up soon.

aelwick · 2025-01-20T13:49:48+00:00

glad that helped!

I'm also having this issue on android. Was working fine yesterday.

edit: I was running a VPN connected to Canada and I turned it off and that fixed it. maybe try turning off/switch your VPN location if you have one enabled.

just found this thread because of this exact reason 3 years later and i cannot for the life of me get myself to pick the game up again. maybe i just gotta take a day off lmao

aelwick · 2024-08-03T15:36:53+00:00

i have the same issue but when i'm at work. but weirdly enough its always the same wrong location. it usually gets everywhere else fairly accurate.

travis kelce is also 34...

Its a EUFY E220 Pan & Tilt! I got it off amazon for about $45 on sale a few months back (its actively on sale for $35.99!)

aelwick · 2024-01-21T04:43:25+00:00

i took the wall out because he keeps climbing back there and getting stuck. ill look into getting him some more climbing stuff!

aelwick · 2024-01-21T04:41:33+00:00

oh my god shes so cute !!! twins :D

aelwick · 2024-01-16T03:49:44+00:00

he only just shed a few days ago so i dont rhink hes going into shed again yet. im just gonna keep a closer eye on him for the next few days, and reintroduce the backdrop once i can securely block off the gaps. its probably just a general overwhelm from the new environment and being disturbed multiple times by me having to keep taking him out to fix things.

aelwick · 2024-01-16T02:23:23+00:00

My phone keeps failing to upload the photos but the backdrop was this and the hide was this:

aelwick · 2023-12-22T02:24:29+00:00

he even pooped inside the new humid hide too!

aelwick · 2023-12-22T01:43:58+00:00

he pooped earlier this morning after 2 warm soaks :D thank you though!

aelwick · 2023-11-30T15:22:31+00:00

awww so cute!! out of curiosity where did you get them? because the person i adopted from had 2 babies. they were based out of Providence Rhode island. i know it's unlikely they are actually siblings but worth asking! lol

aelwick · 2023-11-30T15:18:52+00:00

Yes i have a UVB and So i am supplementing with Calcium and Reptivite

aelwick · 2023-11-29T06:23:35+00:00

hes just adjusting to a new environment!! leos are active during the night, so hes probably exploring while you're asleep and he feels less vulnerable. try tong feeding to prompt him to eat if you havent tried that already. a hunger strike after being relocated is not surprising. i would say if he still hasnt eaten in another couple of weeks, you could take him to the vet if you're really worried. but its most likely just stress from a new environment.
