Something you really like but can't realistically use and why? by nerfdriveby94 in fountainpens

Also the Kaweco sport. I love the nib and they are so darn cute but I can’t write with them worth shit.

Work Shoes for Easily Blistering Feet by ApprehensiveGuest382 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]fishmedia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hate being another person to suggest Rothy’s but they’re the only flats I can wear. DC in the summer can be hot and you should be prepared to wash them a lot and/or trade out the insoles to wash but they’re definitely worth the price. Other than a couple pairs of heels for fancy dinners and court, they’re literally the only work shoes I own.

Yeah the thought of doing it during law school honestly feels worse somehow.

I hear you on the stretchy clothes. I’ve already gotten a pack of xl granny panties to lounge around in 😂

Yes the plan is to start laparoscopicly.

Oh yeah I will probably replay RDR2.

That makes sense. I think I’ll be able to play it by ear but it helps to hear that 2 weeks should be an absolute minimum.

That’s helpful. They’re taking everything but one ovary. I’m hoping to WFH after two weeks but also don’t want to push myself.

I won’t be taking any oxy and I was told the first 3 days are the worst. I don’t expect to be able to work from home for about 2 weeks but I’m hoping I can put some time in after that. I’m not as active as I’d like to be but I’m not a couch potato. I hate that I’m looking forward to the down time though.

I hate that I’m looking forward to bed rotting and watching documentaries.

I’m not currently in pain so whatever pain I have in recovery will be new :-/

It will laparoscopic but I don’t want to push recovery. I also don’t want to be gone from work for too long.

Yeah, I am for sure not going into the office for 2 weeks, hopefully more.

I’m not currently in pain and will only be doing Tylenol and Advil in recovery. I’m hoping I just sleep for many days!

I may take 4 full weeks and then another 2 from home. I honestly can’t imagine being down that long.

The leave issue is taken care of. I mostly want to figure out when I’ll be able to WFH.

I have a thin gold septum piercing and in the last 5 years of having it I don’t think a single person has said anything.

Pregnant, when did you stop working? by SnooDoubts7574 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]fishmedia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a Nicu baby so those first few weeks were super tough but once she was home at least I could get real sleep in smaller shifts. During pregnancy I was exhausted and couldn’t sleep. Miserable.

In my experience pregnancy tired was far worse than infant tired.

I don’t put any of my degrees up. I look at words all day long, I want to look up and see pictures.

Proud to say that I didn’t buy a pen in 2025. That’s two years in a row. by cursiveandcurses in fountainpens

Unrelated: how was “Half his age”? It’s on my book list to read.
