so good for kitty!
niktemadur@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y
It's just a nasty inflammation on his shoulder, the vet thinks it's from a tick bite, or a thorn.
Two weeks of meds, three times a day. I'm getting better at it, kitty does not resist as he did at first, it's become a quick and painless thing to pop the pill right down his throat.
But yeah... I screwed up by forgetting to apply his Advantage flea and tick oil earlier this summer.

oh yeah it can be very hard to have an outdoor or indoor/outdoor cat when they require flea treatments like that.

A reliable sleep schedule.
I've been having trouble with it for a LONG time. But last week I found that 2mg melatonin before bed makes me both fall asleep easier AND wake up in a better mood/less sleep inertia. I'm hoping it lasts.

the only thing I learned in therapy that helped me was getting the correct dosage of melatonin. I use to think you would take more to sleep longer and deeper - turns out no. Need to take less.
I take 1mg now instead of 10 and it works amazing.
emptyother@programming.dev · 1 pts · 2y
Without a prescription we only get 1mg pills anyway around here anyway. Is whats recommended.

whoa, you have to get melatonin prescribed? it's like widely available where I am.

Its only recently-ish (2020) become prescription-less here in Norway, and only in small amounts. We are a very conservative country when it comes to healtcare.
cubedsteaks@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 2y
that's interesting, I had no idea. It's kinda crazy you can get such a high dosage of it here over the counter or online cause after I talked to someone who's a doctor- it doesn't even seem like you need that much of it ever really.

The best thing that could happen to me would be that I miraculously get better so I don't miss my flight.
Not gonna happen though. I'll just have to book another ticket for next week. That's the equivalent of ~100 USD (~300 USD on PPP basis) I'll never see again.

My wife had been after me to go to couples therapy. I was convinced we didn't need it. After a while, I just scheduled something and sent her an appointment notice. Figured if she thought we needed it, I'd give it a try.
She called the therapist and cancelled our appointment soon after i sent her the notice. She claimed, "we didn't need to spend money on that right now." She hasn't brought it up since.
No idea what that was about

Opening my email and have the work invitation I've been waiting on for nearly two months.
(before someone asks: I wasn't tricked or fooled. I did the interview, got the direct responsible for the hiring calling me and asking if I was interested, the whole deal. But I'm waiting for a formal invitation from a national agency, for which I'll be working as a private contractor; this implies a lot of beaurocracy and too many big wigs getting bothered to have a meeting to approve having things done.)

cubedsteaks@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 2y
for one, I want it to happen organically which means I've been trying to be outgoing every time I'm there and very patient lol
the big issue is they work in a dispensary. And I actually know them from the last dispensary they worked in. But that place was kinda shitty and they were on shift alone a lot but it was easier to flirt with them back then.
I'm a fool and should have asked back then but didn't for some reason. I think I was still stuck on it happening organically then too.
But now where they work, there's always other people there. There's only been a few times where I was able to talk to them when they were alone and I actually apologized to them recently for being super awkward every time we interact and they agreed they were also being that way lol
anyway, I've felt bad about this for awhile but I feel a lot better about it now that I've talked to them about our previous interactions and they always compliment me when I'm in there. so here's hoping something good happens Saturday.
Steeve@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 2y
Dude, you've just gotta go in and ask em if they want to go for coffe sometime, because either they're into you too or you're the creepy customer who followed them from one dispensary to another to flirt with them. I really hope it's the first, but if it's the latter you've gotta leave that poor retail worker alone and find a new dispensary.
cubedsteaks@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 2y
Yeah, I felt bad about it because of comments like this. I didn't know they went to work at a different dispensary that happened to be closer to my house.
They're fine and they always compliment me - I've complimented them once. We also talked recently and they said all our awkward interactions were fine too.

If I found or was given about 10k, my life would take a pretty nice turn towards being able to stop relying on my parents when a crisis happens.
My wife's car has a blown headgasket, and we were quoted by 2 mechanics that it'd be about 5k to fix since the engine overheated for a long period of time (sensors didn't tell us it was overheating) and needs to be replaced. This is dumb since I still owe about 5k on the car it's self so I'd probably just pay the car off to get out from under it and use the other 5k to find a better more reliable vehicle. Man, that shit would be nice.
