chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 16/08/2025This is why I think me staying off here is probably permanent, there's plenty of other places that are easier to curate. This sucks because I do have several people here I miss, but that doesn't outweigh the negatives, and I've got to look out for me. 030
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 03/07/2025Been away from here a few days because idk, it's hard to want to spend time somewhere when you can't use it the way you want to without crap you've repeatedly said you don't want. I miss my people but I think I'm going to continue staying elsewhere for a bit. 010
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Diabetic kitty was still high. They finally asked why I didn't get the wearable and I wish they'd done that sooner because she thinks the small town pharmacy near them is cheaper. I'm to get back to them once I check. I hope it is because she clearly needs a higher dose now but I need peace of mind. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 30/06/2025I have a penguin version of one of these. It's been in my possession at least 6 years now and I still can't help but think of how fucked up it is to just toss it in the microwave every time I use it. Well I don't just toss him, I usually put him in a dabbing position to convince myself he enjoys it😅 110
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 30/06/2025I'm glad traffic has slowed to a crawl. We get about two hours between rounds of blasts, that can't be easy for students to work through. I'm glad I'm leaving early to take diabetic kitty for another recheck, it's getting old. I've got about 6 strobes in my line of sight plus glass, brain is fizzy😵💫 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 30/06/2025The alarm would go off again when I get a student in the lab whose prof didn't send info so they're not only testing but on a webcam🙃 Oh and the guy left the room so it's just blasting away😒 Going to let the student know our emails in case she needs proof she wasn't "cheating" or whatever:P 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 30/06/2025I hope our traffic is low today. It's so warm in here that I can't keep my mask on, the humidity is just too much. Plus more bodies will just make it warmer in here, we've already gained a degree since I got here. Looks like the sun is peeking out from the fog, this afternoon should be Interesting. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 30/06/2025I wondered why when certain folks would walk by they'd stop since I can't hear the beeping anymore. Turns out one of the guys is sitting in the dark in the control room. I...okay lol😅 Also our printer decided to join in on the fun, one of our inks is out:P At least that's easier than last time. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Yay our fire alarm sensor broke again🙃 That means work has no AC and I get to hear beeping...oh and the alarm went off again. Sounds like they're at least on the box to keep the blaring down, but all the strobes are going crazy. Should be a fun day. At least I won't freeze I guess😅 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Today in pet adventures: An afternoon storm drove the dog insane, which sent the cats into hiding until dinner, which went surprisingly well aside from more pup drama. Not a bad day tbh😅 Storms are done now so it's time to clean up after everyone and get more allergy meds on board. I'm still stuffy🙃 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 28/06/2025I love my dog but I am so stuffy since our appointment. She spent the bulk of our long wait curled up near my face, my mask was useless lol. We looked cute but I'm really feeling it. Alpha-gal is so mean, I never thought I'd be allergic to my pets. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 28/06/2025Recheck day. Dog is still on track. He extended her meds another week but doesn't need to see her back for a bit. Diabetic kitty was the same. We're upping her insulin for one of her daily doses and rechecking Monday. He likes her body condition but her sugar can't stay that high. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 27/06/2025Haven't had anyone since this so I guess I am freezing for nothing😅 My face is so cold it feels numb in places, which makes my brain think I'm reacting, which spikes my anxiety, which makes these remaining minutes feel like an eternity. Can't wait to go home. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 27/06/2025I hope you have a lovely vacation and visit💜 Does your cat like having visitors? Mine have always been a mixed bag, some would disappear for the duration and others we'd have to pry off the guests so they'd feel more comfortable😅 110
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 27/06/2025Lucky, I know way too many people who worship them like it's still the 60s. At least I figured out it was something about how that era sounds to me more than the band itself, but there are still several songs of their I hope to never hear again. 010
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 27/06/2025We've gained a degree but I'm still freezing. You know it's bad when I wear a sweater like normal instead of backwards. I'm debating putting my headband on to warm my poor ears up, it's miserable in here. We have had a few students at least. Nice to know I'm not freezing my tits off for nothing. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 27/06/2025I'm glad today is a short day, we've reached the peak of our AC🥶 I'm shocked the windows weren't fogged up when I got here, it's miserable. I seriously want to know how much it costs to refrigerate us like this. They've complained to us about that before about that but um talk to your managers??? 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025We forgot to reset the people counter so I just threw a number down🫠 Aside from a group needing badges it's been us pretty much:P Been a boring day but idk kinda needed that after the way this week has gone. Hoping tomorrow is the same so I can end my week on a better note. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Looks like my house when I'm a little late getting home😅 That's the one time of day they'll team up together and put me in my place, usually the dog is too busy being overly loyal. 100
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Today I'm using my "look busy but my brain is melting" skills, there is no one here. Sounds like there's several departments closed for meetings, plus there's some kind of training drill? Wish they'd told us that before I wore my sock puppet with a knife pin😅 But that's elsewhere, my hall is empty. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025I'm usually the one waking them up😂 I don't think they minded too much, storms are pretty typical this time of year. It's crazy so many of us got them yesterday though, normally we get those "It rained across the street and in the backyard but not the front" kind of storms😅 100
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Lol they should bring this back so I can yell at the tv "No, beef gives HIVES" rofl🤣 Having alpha-gal sucks but the jokes are fun🙃 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025I made it through the heat and the storms that came after. I hope your parts of Georgia were alright, it got really loud at my house last night, I haven't seen that much lightning in a long time. My dog was not happy about it. Don't know about the cats, they always look grumpy when I ask questions😅 100
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Someone needs to, I'd love to rewatch them now that I'm old enough to really get it. I think I only saw this show in classrooms as a young kid, and it was a rare treat in an era where Bill Nye was king (and he is, my area just overshowed him). 010
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025I played a lot of Mario Party 64 back in the day, but my favorite was a toss-up between a Powerpuff Girls game and one I can't remember the name of where you played as various cats trying to defend yourself against angry rats. Don't remember if I ever beat it, but it was a ton of fun. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Sure I'm using my time wisely, yep, using it very wisely🙃 *puts down BS answer* I remember that question tripping me up last year because I was out with diabetic cat weekly for a while😅 This year I'm just juggling too many balls, my brain is mush:P 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Need to do my yearly employee evaluation packet today and um can I get another day😅 It was due yesterday but the roof fumes made me too sleepy, and today I'm wonky from the storms keeping me up. I'll get it done, just going to be a slog. Feels awkward af mostly:P 010
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Took forever for the booms to die down. The dog kept wanting to bark at them by that point🙃 I eventually got back to sleep, now to see if it blew anything down. Our trees have really been through it this year. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025I guess we are going to get storms🫠 I hope the line behaves, I'm not used to storms from the east. Plus I'm tired, just boom a little and move on so I can go back to sleep😅 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Oh that's why I had the afternoon sleepies🙃 I felt better around 5ish but still foggy af, but I'm pretty much fine now that I'm home. Totally forgot I got fumed all morning, gotta love brain fog. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 26/06/2025I used to be the frog girl for my group💚 Miss those days. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Friendly stranger save me from the afternoon sleepies, I am melting😵💫 open.spotify.com/track/6hnyQ0...open.spotify.comVehicleThe Ides Of March · Vehicle · Song · 1970 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 25/06/2025My computer keeps sending me a notif every few minutes about the heat advisory for my area as if I hadn't noticed outside is fucking boiling right now🫠 One alert was for poor air quality though and I laughed. Of course the air sucks, we're being baked lol, tf did you expect? 010
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 25/06/2025I wish it wasn't 100 degrees outside, my body is not liking these adhesive fumes🙃 They're not as strong since the roofers are on the opposite side of the building, but my alpha-gal was already giving me problems so here we are. I guess I just get to suffer yaayyy🥴 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 25/06/2025I still haven't figured out why several of them are holed up in our lab having loud convos when idk shouldn't you be in class? Maybe it's because they can't read lol, like I know it's hot outside but leave your drinks away from our computers🙃 There's only like 15 signs asking you to do that wtf🙃 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 25/06/2025I'm glad I've been in a better headspace to catch games, Matt's been so fun to watch. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Definitely too hot for dancing down here in the south, but I've been enjoying some throwbacks in the car when I need help remembering cooler times😅 Hopefully my work traffic dies down soon so I can listen at my desk too. 010
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 25/06/2025Well I'm glad the student I had testing in the lab was done by the time the entitled nursing students blasted in there. This whole week is on my last nerve, everything that can be annoying is taking it all the way. It also smells like adhesive again🙃 My mask can't fight that, I'm miserable. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 25/06/2025The dog got a grin from the vet, he's excited that it's an absess and not something more sinister. But diabetic kitty is baffling. Sugar was higher today but we kept things the same just to see while he regroups. I appreciate it but let him know we don't want her to suffer. Hopefully time is enough. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 24/06/2025I get it's my fault for sticking with the discover feed when there are other options, but if the "less like this" buttons serve no purpose then maybe I should be elsewhere. The whole "feed administrator" line is a nice touch, let's have someone to blame when it's ultimately bullshit. I'm over it😑 010
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Well the dog seems better today by a lot, but I'm concerned about diabetic kitty. I'm hoping she just needs time to adjust to her mouth and whatnot but idk. She's reminding me of her late brother, and as much as I love them both, I don't want to play the same cards with her. Time will tell. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 23/06/2025No nap and dinner was worse🫠 I wish they'd take turns on who's going to need the most of my attention. Plus with diabetic cat taking so much of my time, I should probably change my work alarm so I have more. I hate that but it is what it is. Just gotta ride the wave...but this wave can kiss my ass. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 22/06/2025This morning has been a slog😑 Dog was restless last night and kept me up at times. Diabetic cat didn't want to eat so I was juggling that and my own breakfast. Baby cat wanted her food so the dog chased her. All of this and I still need to go get groceries🙃 Maybe I can nap later, I'll need it. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 21/06/2025Some robocall from a jail several counties away has been leaving me voicemails all afternoon even after I blocked the number. If it's real I feel for the guy, but I know no one there so I'd love for it to stop. At least my inbox will be full soon:P 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 21/06/2025Dinner has gone well for everyone. I'm hoping this trend continues, my body doesn't like staying in Stressed Caretaker ModeTM for too long. Having two at once with big issues is a lot but idk, not my first time so that's helped? Idk. Maybe I am burning out🙃 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 21/06/2025Explain your @ Idk why I go by a nickname online, I don't like being perceived😅 But it's who I've been for a while so whatever I guess:P 020
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 21/06/2025My dog finally had her dinner from yesterday🥳 Sure it's lunchtime today but that's whatever, I'm just glad she ate. Now everyone is napping. The rest will do them some good. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 21/06/2025Got the dog to eat dry cat food for breakfast, better than nothing. Even chopped up her pill in it, told her it was mouse bones because that's what cats like😅 Going to do a warm compress later and keep babying her. Diabetic cat seems fine btw, ate most of her food and is now napping in a sun beam. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 21/06/2025Been in bed a while but I keep checking the dog any time I hear her. She's restless so I know she's hurting, but the poor thing keeps trying to jump up to see me😭 I appreciate the love but please try to relax. I'd join her down there but she's setting off my AG. Trying to avoid allergy meds. 000
chrysw.bsky.social @chrysw.bsky.social · 20/06/2025Dog doesn't want to eat at all, diabetic cat is taking a lot of coaxing to finish, and I haven't even had my own dinner yet🙃 I expected this but it's been a long day with more to come. At least I know the dog will eat cat food but I'm not going back out for more today. Still a win lol🤪 000
