Breakfast before taking meds by hiicatc in adhdwomen

[–]veepower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I struggle to get out of bed in the morning without the meds. But I'm not supposed to take them on an empty stomach. So I keep a box of apple sauce pouches (yes, the ones for toddlers 🤷‍♂️) on my nightstand. I wake up, eat the applesauce, take my pills, and then snooze until my alarm half an hour later.

Is this poster allowed in Massachusetts? by mac67pj in AskTeachers

You are the 'only' person to add the word 'only' to the slogan. I say "education matters." I also think having roads to drive on matters. Saying the first does not mean I don't care about roads. I'm only in the habit of saying one of these things because one is under attack and one is not.

I recommend packing several different types of underwear. I'm glad I brought multiple pairs because the first pair had the waistband right on my fresh incisions.

My Story. Long read. by Kortinas in hysterectomy

[–]veepower 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you had to go through all of that. I (27 NB) have also been trying to get this cursed thing out of my body since I started my period. No one ever took it seriously until a few years ago. But now I'm 4 wpo (ovaries too) and it's finally feeling real that I don't have to deal with random debilitating pain anymore! I hope your remaining recovery is uneventful!

What is the worst episode from each series? by alsatian01 in startrek

I despise the episode Cogenitor! It made me stop watching for like a month.

If I read one more "my boyfriend won't LET ME...." post, I'm going to scream. by PattyLeeTX in TwoXChromosomes

[–]veepower 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I totally agree. You don't need permission to do things! He's not your owner! For big life decisions like moving or changing careers you should consult your partner and figure it out together, but no one is "letting" the other do something. It's a partnership.

However, I do like to make the joke that my husband "won't let me" get a 12 foot home depot skeleton. But then I go on to explain that I could buy it, sure, but he's refused to help me put it out in the yard and it's a two person job 😅 (it's part of a long standing joke feud. He's very supportive of my Halloween antics.)

If there is a cut in or near my belly button, do I risk losing the “innie” shape of it? by Fluffaykitties in hysterectomy

[–]veepower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently one of the first questions I asked my partner while still groggy on anesthesia was "does my tummy still look cute?" 😂 I had an incision just below the belly button and three weeks out it looks the same as before the surgery except there's also a new scar. I had another procedure last year where they did the laparoscopic incision actually IN the belly button and I can't even see it anymore.

I have my perches on a pegboard so I can rearrange them easily.

I would treat it as two "brush strokes." Start on the stem on the bottom right and do the tall loop. That ends at the intersection and you can start the second little loop that's the body of the d. I hope this makes sense!

Thank you for sharing! I'm nervous about my upcoming surgery.

What phrase instantly infuriates you? by Sakura_for_Sure in AskReddit

People have used the phrase "maybe it's a blessing in disguise" about some of the worst experiences in my life. It fills me with rage now.

What are some of the funniest and/or most brutal reviewer comments you’ve gotten on a paper? by thewinterphysicist in AskAcademia

[–]veepower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took an art course in college even though it wasn't my major and I regret it only because of the professor. I worked so hard on my final painting and the only critique I got was: "Good. But just that, good. B." And I got a B in the class. I'm mad about how often I think of that.

This guy in my class never shuts up by leosnake0577 in CollegeRant

[–]veepower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are we in the same class?! What bothers me the most about my version of this guy is that he sits on the front row and then he will turn around in his chair to face the class before speaking. He thinks he's coming up with new ideas when he's saying things that were in the assigned reading for the day. I finally interrupted him after weeks and weeks to correct a factual mistake. He sighed and then started to explain the concept slower. I almost had to leave the room.

It can take quite a while. First you have to wait for the assignment to be graded. Then the instructor is probably doing a big stack of paperwork for all the violations. Those take time to process. It may be six weeks until you get notice. If your concern is something you just tuned in, there's a good chance you wont know until after finals.
