I'm trying to do squats and every squat is increasing the burn but not the sweet lactic acid burn of strength and progress its the terrible, esophageal shame burn of cold buffalo chicken pizza and nyquil.
Update: the extreme heartburn kept turning into fiery, loud hiccups. Enough so I had to actually cut my workout short. My body is fucking stupid.
My new upstairs neighbor is apparently the kind of old guy who just has conservative news on 24/7, so I now have a muted can't-understand-the-words-but-recognize-the-shitty-tone fox news constantly in my ears.
Got some black pepper beef from the local chinese place, I'd never had it before and was kind of disappointed it was exactly as the name said it'd be. It was beef and peppers seasoned with black pepper. Truth in advertising but I guess I expected something else.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

Black pepper beef can vary wildly from place to place for something so relatively simple. From most places near me it's very mediocre. A few do it as a sizzling hot plate dish though that comes out the way fajitas might at a Mexican restaurant and one of our favorites does a rendition so good that we always order it.

What I learned is never try something different.

My not so petty complaint tonight is I wish they could figure out what's wrong with me medically
I've had two halter monitors, numerous ekgs and blood work and X-rays, an echocardiogram, a cardiolite stress test after which my cardiologist was like nope you're fine!
Meanwhile I'm only getting more tired more quickly. Occasionally getting that pain in my left arm and shoulder and tightness under my left eye. Racing heart rate in the evenings. My blood pressure isn't improving even on 3 medications.
It really feels like none of my doctors are taking it seriously honestly. I see my pulmonologist tomorrow and my cardiologist a week after that. I'm really hoping they can do some kind of tests to figure out if it's something to do with my peripheral arteries like I'm starting to suspect. Or maybe it's neurological? But the neurologist cleared me after a brain MRI two years ago. I'm freaking frustrated.
I don't even know where to call to get it fixed but I'm certain I can't fucking afford it right now
God dammit
Yeah, this just happened to me on the way home tonight. Doing that thing where my brain is thinking about what would have happened if I had left work on time or a minute later. It's great.
I don't mean to be dismissive with that link, I've just always had Safelite replace my windshields when they'd crack.
anyway, my current petty complaint is that I decided to get a little crazy and get an indica strain instead of sativa.
it is making me sleepy, which is cool, but I took my brain pills, so I won't sleep, and I'm stuck in this endless liminal hell.
Yeah Safelite is where I'm going when I get the deductible together to spend
But it's gonna be a week or two.
Also I prefer indica. But I get anxious sometimes from sativa strains. Hybrids are best of what I've tried because I mainly want it as an occasional sleep aid anyway.

I am reminded of the CBD gummies my wife bought a year or so ago. In Texas CBD products aren't supposed to contain any THC (well, supposed to have less than 0.3%). These gummies meet that requirement, and the fact that I'd been taking them nightly for a week and then got selected for a random drug test at work and I didn't get fired for it means I guess they really don't have any (my job has a zero tolerance policy where any amount discovered will have you fired. Yes, I am dumb as hell)
Anyways, CBD isn't supposed to make you feel high or anything but these goddamn gummies make me as high as I've ever been in my life. Like to where I forget to breathe, and I feel like I'm sinking into the ground, and I'm experiencing reality in stop-motion frames, and moving or doing anything is supremely difficult. Even just eating half of one was enough to give me so much anxiety over the sensations I was feeling that i would just lie in bed unable to fall asleep, and hope it would all stop soon (a whole one seemed about the same intensity, just lasted way longer). Now I rarely take them, and if I do I just have a quarter of one right before I lay down.
tl;dr: I am big baby and do not like how CBD makes me feel, much less actual pot. Also, I talk/type too much
Edibles are a tricky thing, because testing is often done in batches and control over how much cannabis product goes into the production run can be difficult to control. Take a cookie, for example. Let's say you've got a set up where individual cookie batter is mixed with a live resin containing 100mg of THC. The goal is to make a product where the serving size is 1/10 of the cookie, meaning the customer should ideally ingest 10mg of THC. The ability to control the total THC of the packaged product is pretty solid, 100mg total. During the mixing process, there is no guarantee that the majority of that live resin doesn't settle in one area. The suggested serving size of 1/10 of the cookie may contain far more or far less than the 10mg advertised. Gummies aren't so different. A large batch is produced and then deposited into molds where they will cool before being packaged in groups of 5/10/whatever.
In many states, these production runs are not subject to the same testing that the initial test batch is.
I'm not sure about all the specifics in Texas, but I do know that there was a recent-ish recall on CBD gummies because they contained Delta 8 THC, a cannaboid extracted/manufactured from legal hemp. It might be worth looking into to see if the brand that you bought was a part of that recall.
Edit: Nevermind that last part. The mislabeling I was thinking of occurred in Oregon, though I wouldn't rule out something similar happening in Texas.
I work at a cannabis industry adjacent company (we make packaging for pre-rolls and gummies), so I hear about this sort of shit all the time.

Looks like half my Foreman grill decided to stop working; and by that, I mean the bottom plate. This one has lasted me a good 7 years, so I can't complain... but I'm going to anyway because now I have to buy a new grill.

I have a multi point petty complaint.
There are the 70th anniversary Webbers coming out, this isn’t the complaint as I like the colours and I want one. So I put my name on the list, stopped by this week at the store to check what’s happening, they were expecting to get around 40. Turns out, they think they’ll be lucky to get 12. And I am not that high on the list.
So I thought I’d check, since Vivienne’s sister is visiting next month, maybe she could pop one into her luggage, since Americans get to have extra luggage. But the check in size for luggage is like a kilo over the box, and the box size is like 10cm too big so it can’t be shipped from there.
I was so embarrassed and anxious from unintentionally offending someone in a dream that I woke up crying and ruminating on how to apologize and escape to the bathroom.

Son had a longer dental appointment to get some fillings and his molars sealed. He started getting mega antsy halfway through and I had to restrain myself from getting in the dentists way to try and help (they are professionals he's not their first antsy 6 year old). God I hate seeing him in pain and not able to do anything.

We have a pretty nice thrift store here run by/supporting the humane society. I like it a lot, and have picked up tons of kiddo clothes for like $1 each there over the years.
It's juuuust about time I'm going to have to go through their adult clothes section for her now, though. Which, on top of costing more leads into my actual complaint: for some unfathomable reason, they sort women's clothes by color rather than size. And the women's clothes area is extensive.
Every clerk I've asked about it doesn't understand why they do it either and is thankful they don't work in that section.

When my autistic 4 year old had to get a catheter to check if he had a urinary tract infection he screamed so hard he almost passed out and when he looked me in the eyes and begged us to stop I had a panic attack!
Those parental instincts are real hard to subvert.

You'res is a million times worse than mine I'm sorry you went through that. Closest thing I had to your situation was when my son was really young and had to get shots and I had to hold him and he didn't realize until the shot hit why and then he looked at me like the greatest betrayer ever.
