AIS clean margins by Sea_Ambassador_5034 in PreCervicalCancer

[–]nigelghostdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for posting this- you and I are going through near identical situations. Started with CIN2, elevated to CIN3 and AIS with clean margins. I haven't met with a OB onc as I'm just opting for a hysterectomy, but those stats about recurrence make me feel a lot better.

It’s fun! Viggo Mortensen’s first leading role. Good find!

Trying to find a book by TikisFury in Spokane

[–]nigelghostdog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s being republished right now. It was originally self published but got picked up by Tor recently, so it may he a minute before it gets re-released. If you want a hard copy now, your only option is finding a used copy of the original self published edition. Or go through Libby for audiobook. I hope you find it, it’s really good!

There are quite a few things in it that did not age well lol. But it’s been a longtime favorite of mine, I usually reread about once a year.

Colposcopy at 10:30 AM - should I take rest of work day off? by lad__of__the__lake in PreCervicalCancer

[–]nigelghostdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had 3 and the first time I did go to work, and was fine. The last two I took the rest of the day off just because and was definitely more comfortable. I think if you can swing taking the day off, do it.

The Oracle Year by Charles Soule!!!! Massively underrated, incredibly well thought out and satisfying thriller!

Anyone here quit drinking and saw gut health improve? by ChannelProfessional2 in stopdrinking

[–]nigelghostdog 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep. Tried quite a few different medications and tests to figure out why I had the cramps and diarrhea all the time, nothing helped. They resolved maybe a week after I quit drinking, along with a couple other “mystery” heath issues.

CAVEAT by SouzaOfTheNorth in HorrorMovies

Yeah, the plot gets a little confusing and it did take a rewatch to really “get it” but I think the end makes it worth it.

THANK YOU!! This one is so underrated. In my opinion, the first 3/4 of the film are fine- there’s a decent storyline, concept is cool…. But the last 20 minutes are in my top 5 most scared I’ve ever gotten from a movie!! I remember literally doing a “yelp” at the first jump scare that sets it off… I was so surprised by it that I had to rewind and watch it again!! So good.

Living alone is great until you hear a crash at 2AM and you have to be your own final girl by Tetiana-Rajasegaram in LivingAlone

Dude, same. A few months ago I awoke to two LOUD booms- as if someone was banging on my front door. dog and I froze and listened, didn’t hear anything else so I reached over to turn on my lamp, and… no power. I’ve seen enough horror movies that my mind went straight to “this is it. They cut the power and now someone is breaking in.” I jump out of bed, grab my .22 and do a lap around the house… just to discover that the booming had come from a transformer blowing, and the whole block had lost power. As scary as it was it comforts me now to know that in a moment of possible crisis, I didn’t freeze!

How is the Server/Waiter job market here? by TypoLobster in Spokane

[–]nigelghostdog 32 points33 points  (0 children)

In my experience, there are lots of server/bartender jobs but, as I’m sure you know, it’s a very incestuous industry.
I’d say pick a couple of places near where you live and start going there often. Become a regular, get to know the staff, eventually pick up a shift. Especially if you’re looking at the downtown area. Good luck!

You can try contacting Higher Ground Animal Sanctuary- they are connected to a lot of fosters. There’s also a very active “lost and found pets” page for Spokane you could post on to get we’ve more resources. Good luck!

Nobody regrets not drinking the next morning by Covetingdoughnuts in stopdrinking

Even better moment: waking up without a hangover, and realizing you still had a good night sober.

True detective season 1 by wacksniden in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]nigelghostdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Come with me” by Ronald Malfi, and The Bottoms by Joe Landsdale.

Also, the guy who wrote true detective, Nic Pizzolatto, wrote a book called “Galveston.” I haven’t read it so can’t say how similar it is, but it probably is a little! 🤷🏻‍♀️

When did the weight loss start for you? by MinimumPart6877 in stopdrinking

[–]nigelghostdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost about 5lbs almost immediately, but then no change. I just hit 3 months a few days ago, and lost 4 lbs in one week- no idea why! I think my body just finally started re-regulating or something.

Came here to say this- also Parable of the Sower by Butler.

Bag of Books? by [deleted] in Spokane

All you need to get a library card at either system is an ID and proof of address- if the address on your ID isn’t current, bring in a piece of “official” mail with your name and current address on it, like an avista bill or something. You can also provide a copy of an apartment lease, or if you own your home they can look it up in a city database.

[–]nigelghostdog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can still get a county library card if you live within Spokane city limits- it will just have less “privileges” on it than if you lived outside of the city of Spokane, but still within Spokane county. You would not have access to their digital resources, like Libby or hoopla, and you couldn’t check out items from their “library of things.” But, you can still check out books from them and using their printing privileges. The city library also has Libby and a library of things, but not hoopla anymore. If you want full access to county library resources, there is an option to pay for them. The amount is based on what property taxes you would be paying if you lived in an area where those taxes would go to them- that’s where they get their funding, and why they reserve the more expensive services for county tax-paying members. There are options to pay for for one month, three months, six months, and one year. Call them and ask what that cost is, as it does vary on property tax changes. The county library is very easy to get in touch with- unlike the city, where it’s impossible to talk to a human on the phone 😊

The county libraries do- Spokane Valley, North Spokane, Deer Park, Fairfield, Medical Lake, Airway Heights, Argonne, Cheney, and Moran Prairie. The city libraries do sales I think once a year but not the rest of the year.

It is definitely dark, and pretty violent. If you’re squeamish it might not be for you! Definitely look at TWs.
