I guess it's not too early for this now.
Going to try to go back to sleep. It's 3:40 here.

Monday is technically my Friday with my work schedule. Plus I work nights so everything is reversed.

Good morning everyone.

I think you pretty much nailed it there! You really start to believe that time IS relative after all.

Work only took us an hour today, it took us 1.5 hours just to get there! I'm not complaining, but it does seem a little silly to drive longer than it takes to do a job.

How's everyone's morning going?

Yea that does seem a bit ridiculous. They should compensate you for travel at that point. My morning is going good so far, I hope yours is as well!

I feel a bit hestitant to write on this thread because I feel like an outsider But this seems like a really kind space.

I'm going to write an essay for uni, feel dedicated to finish this course.

Nah. I just dropped right into it myself. I get what you mean though.

Dedicated is a good feeling to have.

We get compensated after the first hour, so we got paid for an hour total there and back. They kind of screw us on drive time, but oh well.

That's good! Glad to hear it! Did you work last night?
I'm alright, I chugged a triple shot coffee and ate breakfast so I'm probably awake for a while. I was going to take a walk when I got home, but it's starting to snow so I think I'll opt out.

You're both good. Jean made this thread for everyone, so welcome!

Best of luck on the essay too btw!

Yea I just got off work. It's not snowing here but it's back to being cold again. We've had a fairly mild winter where I'm at. But you won't see me complaining about that.

Coffee does sound good about right now. Do you have a particular brand you prefer?

You going to sleep anytime soon? We've had a pretty mild winter so far too, but we're about to hit Feb which is the coldest month of the year in my state so I anticipate it getting a little worse. I hate the cold so I'll be very glad when it passes. Lol.

If I'm going for flavored coffee then Dunkin or Starbucks, but I usually just go for conveniency or what I has the most caffeine. So something like Cafe Bustelo since it's cheap and strong. Not going to lie though, I've been spending a crap ton of money on the canned coffee drinks though lately because of lack of time.

Day so far:
On way to work back left tire blew out on car... while I was going 70mph... tire is 'destroyed' as my company's repair shop put it lol (it's in one piece, just not repairable due to the massive issue).

only heard a mini-explosion, and semi-slow loss of air. Just glad made it to work, as was that close to it, I made it... with 8psi left in tire, but still. It made a cool hissing sound.

So much for like $200

ugh

Someone talk to me. I'm in crisis. Trying to stay calm

I'm here for you. Would you rather me PM, love?

 

[Jean4]

What's going on?

My toilet overflowed all over the floor. Tried putting the urine water in my sink and bathtub and everything is clogged and going all over the place
This on no sleep
I now smell like urine

 

[Carina]

Do you have a bucket for now? Just to decrease stress?

I mean vent away here all you want!

I'm so sorry, I wish I were there to physically help you. Try to step back and take a deep breath if you can (I know that's hard), the problem will still be there but taking a tiny break helps sometimes. We're here. So the sink is clogged too?

I have been taking a cup and putting the dirty water in the sink and bathtub and everything clogged

 

[Carina]

Would you like us to try and come up with ideas to help, or just be here for you?

Everything is clogged and overflowing. Last time I tried to CTB, the same thing happened. Except the super came into my apartment to fix it and stopped me

 

[cosmicpixiedust]

Do you have any baking soda, borax, or vinegar?

 

[Carina]

Call super again? Any acids in drain?

[Carina]

I hope the work call goes well... it can be distracting, calming... or bad... but hoping for good!

It was the same person who caught me trying to CTB last time.

I had a feeling honestly that's who it was. Irony of sorts.

I know the mess is still annoying you. Have you contacted the super yet?

 

[Jean4]

I will call the super. I feel quite sick from getting toilet water in my mouth

This person is my crush my the way ;) I smell like Urine

 

[Carina]

and good. not to the toilet water in mouth... that kind of made me gag. but good to calling the super.

So you got to talk with the crush, and the mess will go away...

 

[Jean4]

I called the super. He will come some time today. I smell like urine. My apartment smells. I am on no sleep. No impulsive CTB. He will be coming
