After 10 years of really heavy smoking, and many failed attempts, I have finally quit the weed.

I passed my usual threshold of 3 months, smoked some, and really disliked how I felt the next morning. More importantly, I did not proceed to buy as much as I could afford.

This is a milestone. Thank you, liquid nicotine, thank you.

Oh, hey guys.

Hey!

Also, yes.  I haven't touched actual tobacco since last September.  I don't know how I spent that many years feeling so crappy.

You should start a band with other Navy wives.

Depends. Apparently there's a social structure I need to adhere to.

:spag:

This should end well.


:popcorn:

Husband is not a junior rank. You're not really supposed to fraternize with junior ranks (guy across the hall, but this is to get me and her out of the house.) Chiefs' wives stay out the way and look pretty when they have to. Officer's wives pretend to be actually in the Navy, and the rest of them are usually little whiny girls. He is almost a chief. Will probably make it this summer, if not definitely next summer. I like the dress codes, too. I wear different levels of dress depending on which uniform he's in. This is why we like to stay home. :)

So started a new job...

My fiance had the same job at a different store and their initial instructions for how to use a particular piece of heavy equipment covered in warning signs and "No one under 18 may use this equipment" labels and stuff was "Don't touch it until we've had a chance to train you."

The store I'm working? First day and I haven't had ANY training, and they put me on the thing unsupervised with one sentence of instruction and no safety briefing or anything.  :horrormirth:

Time to start the job hunt back up already...

Busy as fuck right now.

Which is killing me, because I really want to write some more Pit.

I'll get on it as soon as I can.  Which probably means Monday.

Dinner went a lot better than expected. Turns out that she's from Upstate NY and he's from Florida, and if that wasn't ironic enough, they're both archers.

Oh, and we both decided that our downstairs neighbors are way too creepy, and they need to go. So we're going to start booby trapping the building. These guys are disgusting trashy people, and the guy already tried stalking me (bad idea) and tried to ask my husband for help moving a couch when he wasn't home but got scared by his armor in the living room, and...AND he walked freely into the apartment across the hall WITH HER HOME, and since the apartment complex seems uninterested in doing something, we're just going to take matters into our own hands. Plus, I lived in Providence. I got this shit.

Post-midterm blues. My head feels lost and I'm convinced I'm going to fail half my classes. In reality, I'm probably just not sleeping enough and will walk away with no lower than a B in any class.

I seriously felt that way by second midterms but ended up doing OK, and I bet you will too.

Blood results came in!
Good News!
Type 2 diabetes averted. My blood pressure won't be a issue once my meds drop me down. I'm fat no matter how healthy I ate because of my under-active thyroid. So the medicine will help me shred pounds more and I won't be as tired anymore.  I come back in 6 months. The low-GI diet I followed along with my parent and exercise only prolonged the weight gain.

So I'm one of the special snowflake cases where I actually take Levothyroxine now. So I get to be THAT guy if I want whenever someone makes a fat post on Facebook. I'm trying to take a good picture of me in a "Actually" pose. Binks is mad because I get a free pass to derail her threads. HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

I can't wait to work out and feel the energy levels like a normal god damn person. Prepare your anus! Bears back in his ultimate form!

Kick ass! I've known people with hypothyroid issues before, medication changes ALL THE THINGS!!!

Kick ASS! I mean, I don't think there's an inherent problem with the weed, but if you personally recognized a problem with the weed, and quit it, rock the fuck on.

Well, or, there are many many Facebook groups for military wives. They are reknowned globally for their amazing capacity for complaining, even amongst other military wives. Especially the ones who have no jobs outside of being military wives; those ones love to make memes about how they have the hardest job on earth.
