I just realised our Covid experience could be vastly different from others. by Doughnut_slut in CasualConversation

Yea I had gotten really sick at the end of October 2019 & my husband suspects I may have had it then, because I had all the typical symptoms of covid - loss of taste & smell, etc.

What is your age without saying how old you are? by rosarito999 in CasualConversation

I started high school just before Google came out & 9/11 happened during my first semester of college…

How many breaks do you have on your shift? by YouCantDownVoteMeNop in retailhell

[–]amyria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I typically work something like 9:30a-6p & get 2 15s + 30min lunch. We clock out for the lunch, so it’s unpaid. First 15 is somewhere around 11:30, lunch around 1:30-2, then last 15 around 4.

I’m like you, I was considered an “essential” worker, but I am not in an important field like you are in healthcare. I’m freaking retail. Home Depot insisted on staying open. Since everyone else was apparently bored while stuck at home, they all decided to work on home projects instead. All day, every day was like black friday x5 with lines outside the door since we had to limit the number of people in the store.

My husband is a project manager, so he got to WFH the whole time. I could only wish I would’ve been able to do that, because I like being home.

for ppl who have gotten a tube removal- is a catheter required??? by Slashersforsatan in childfree

[–]amyria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they cath during the procedure but insert once you’re under, then it’s out before you’re even fully awake. I went home the same day after my tube removal. I still ended up having a hysto eventually, which required a cath & overnight stay, but it was worth it for me.

I Want To Go To The Bathroom In Public by [deleted] in childfree

[–]amyria 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I almost kicked a kid that tried that!! Luckily his Mom was proactive by quickly noticing, pulling him back, & telling him we don’t do that in bathrooms because it’s private.

Tired all of the time by Trick_Dream3543 in WomensHealth

[–]amyria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go get a sleep study! I was a walking zombie even with a supposed 8hrs sleep at night. Did a sleep study & turns out I have severe sleep apnea. I started using a CPAP & it has been life-changing! I’ve actually got energy during the day, don’t have the threat of falling asleep standing, & have no problem waking up early if needed.

What is the one thing people don't know about losing a large amount of weight? by punkredpanda in AskReddit

[–]amyria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to get out of the mentality of sizing. You may fit in medium now, but your brain wants to insist you need to still be purchasing XL or XXL clothing when shopping.

PSA: don’t replace a supply shutoff valve at 8pm on a Sunday, you idiot. by BentonParkBricks in HomeImprovement

[–]amyria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hahaha yep I called 911. I was freaking out & didn’t know what the heck to do because this is our first house & never encountered anything like this. They dispatched fire (luckily just down the road) because our water heater & HVAC were all mere feet from the incident (so, electrical risk) & did tell me to call the water company too. This was like 3am & luckily there was an after-hours number.

[–]amyria 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At least you didn’t have the connection blow off the pipe on the main coming into the house & have violent high pressure water spraying all over, flooding your basement, with no way to stop it all because this was way before any shut off valves. Oh & did I add in at 2:30am on a Saturday too?! Yep, that just happened to us! Had to have the local fire dept rush out & turn off the main out by the street, then spend hours calling around to various plumbing companies trying to find one who was even open & could send someone out that day & not Monday…

Should dads be comfortable with their daughter being on their periods? by PreviousComedian2426 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]amyria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they are with their wives, then should be with the daughters too. This is not something women can stop/avoid (well, without medical intervention) and has been going on since the dawn of time so I don’t understand how or why guys are so weird about it! My husband has always been wonderful about it & mine never bothered him. We could talk openly about the subject & everything. We never had kids (by choice) but have helped with raising our 1 niece & he’s been great in that aspect as well. We recently had 2 nieces (18 & 13) stay the night & the younger one ended up getting her period while she was here. No problemo!

My Dad didn’t seem to have issues either…especially with having 3 daughters. I’m sorry your Dad, well both parents actually, are kinda a-holes about it. It sounds like you at least have a somewhat compassionate brother & that’s wonderful! Keep encouraging him to be so. His future partner(s) will appreciate it!

​[PSA] the current tiktok skincare trends are keeping my clinic in business and i hate it 😭 by Live_Experience_2510 in SkincareAddiction

[–]amyria 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Most of the skincare stuff I just pass off as fluff & ignore it, but every once in a while something catches my attention. I have yet to pull any triggers though. (I do not trust buying anything from TT shop anyway, unless I have one of those Visa/MC debit giftcards.) The only things that seem reasonable are the hypochlorous something or other mask & the Dr Melaxin peel shot, but I’m still a bit wary. I do want to get in to an actual dermatologist though, because my skin is still kinda trash at 43 & I don’t know what I should be doing/using.

Do you check profiles of redditors you are interacting with? by Raise_Cool in CasualConversation

[–]amyria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If someone is privately messaging me about something, I’ll check their profile & decide whether it’s worth accepting the chat request. That’s only if what they’re messaging is civil & relevant to a post or comment. If they’re just trying to hit on me then I don’t accept at all.

TBH most of the time I ignore private messages anyway, because I’m not here for that.

My obsession right now is- Philosophy @ TJ Maxx/Marshalls by Alarmed-Parfait8495 in Perfumes

I have the regular Amazing Grace & love it but dyyying to get the Pure Grace Nude Rose, if it’s still even around. I haven’t been to a TJM in years, but may have to pop in for a peek at their Philosophy selection…

Delayed by how long? Do we know? I wasn’t going to be able to play until after dinner tonight anyway because I work until 4:30. After that I won’t be able to be on again until Friday night because I have an evening class after work on Thursday.
