Comma splice.
After a long recovery I can finally start working out again
Also I have an amazing dog that I love and I’m thankful for him every day.
Two specific things.
- My wife & I bought a house! 🎉
- My doctors got me on ozempic because i have hypothyroidism & i literally cannot lose weight. Ive dropped 20 lbs in a month & a half!
Congratulations. Please be very vigilant about monitoring GI side effects though, my SO was hospitalized because of Ozempic and is now in a class action lawsuit because the manufacturer did not reveal it can cause gastroparesis.
This is a nice thread. I don’t have any big achievements recently but I’m doing alright. Hope you are too.
I crushed it in a job interview
Nice! I hope you get it, crossing fingers and toes for you
I earned a certification last week for work!
Hey congrats, that’s awesome! Hope it leads to a pay bump for you
I hope so too lol
I just grilled a nice steak.
I can’t afford them too often so when I do it’s a great day.
Hell yeah. Prioritize enjoying life.
Ohh man i reward myself with a weekly steak it usually ends up being like almost a quarter of my weekly food budget fuck a good steak is a godsend.
It feels good when you get to treat yourself, doesn’t happen often enough for sure!
I tried making mango sticky rice for the first time, and it came out great!
It’s a really nice treat/dessert. It’s a sort of very sweet rice pudding made with coconut milk, and rather simple to make
Oh that sounds delicious! I’m totally gonna try this
Just notice you have to soak the rice the day before
Two years ago I had to miss a biennial hacker conference I’d been going to (and helping out on) every other year for over two decades, something I love a lot and always deeply look forward to attending, because I’d finally got hit with my first case of COVID. The virus hit me hard, and not only did it make me miss the conference but it left me with heavy long COVID effects which knocked down my ability to do a lot of things for a long time.
Last week I had a checkup with my doctor who congratulated me on how much I’ve come back from the long COVID. That hacker conference is happening again next week, and I’m extremely excited to see everyone again! (I’ll be masked, of course!)
I’m glad you made a recovery.
DEFCON?
Too early, but honestly their story was beat for beat my DefCon exp too lol
Super excited for it this year!
Mine’s HOPE, but awesome that you can also get back to DEF CON! Have fun and enjoy your return.
You too!
My haphazard kid driven fish tank has babies somehow
I just had my first serious art show. Not solo, but still.
My BF and I are getting married soon! :D
I’m super excited. We live across borders, so I will finally be able to live with him. So much more time for fun stuff like camping and climbing, and even just normal stuff like reading or cooking together.
I was awarded a big scholarship on Sunday that happened to be the exact amount I needed to pay for my first year of college. The rest of my years are mostly paid for. I’ve always want to go to this college. I was excited about going, but now I’m even more excited now that I’ve earned enough scholarships to pay for it.
Thank you for this thread. Nothing particular I can share right now, but I needed this.
I’m on the same boat. I needed this and was about to write similar post yesterday (but got too tired).
This year has been pretty rough at work for me with today being the worst (so far). My best office buddy/colleague left for another company last week - good for him as he is now in very friendly space, it’s hard work, but whole different league in terms of company level. So we’re one person down, more work to do and no replacement in sight. I still have two other colleagues which I like as my siblings, but… Our boss is such a trash person! He’s selfish prick with unsatiable god complex, never admits he’s wrong and boy oh boy, he’s wrong a lot. And it’s getting worse and worse as he gets older.
So thank the OP for good read of some positivity, which is pretty much lacking in my day to day basis.
i fought a traffic ticket and won lol
