Hi fam,

I'm just back from the ceremony weekend and I'm exhausted. Ceremonies were on Friday and Saturday nights from about 10p-7a. It was incredible. Indescribable and overwhelming.

I'll happily share more after I have a chance to integrate and rest a bit. Missed y'all and I'm grateful for your support and curiosity. More tomorrow. 🙏✨🔥

It's  nice to see vulnerability in others even if its on a mostly anonymous forum.

I have flu A since I last posted.


I have to be awake at 8:30 this morning to take a phone call with my new employer about when my CNA classes will start.

I've lost my voice.

My all american pressure cooker was missing those things that secure the lid so I borrowed someone's presto and it wouldn't seal so I had to use my wife's instant pot for my agar.. im hoping it works.

I can relate to your situation infinite and that sucks. When I was a child, I got choked on a peice of candy and now as an adult, I have to get my medications filled as a liquid. It's embarrassing but it used to be worse. Im just a very slow eater now and chew my food alot extra.

The last couple days have been down days for me ultimately and I've not found much happiness outside of agar work and even had that shot down. I'm hoping the instant pot worked for now until I order some parts for my pressure cooker and I can atleast germ somthing.

I think it's do to me hyping myself up to quit my job the other day and telling myself I can do whatever I want to do. Now I feel useless  and that I might have made a huge mistake. Went from 35$ an hour to 19$ with alot more labor. I was gone alot but I didn't have to do anything but sit and drive.


I feel like giving up. However, im gonna answer the phone call and put on a healthy voice as much as possible and try to appear to be fine.

I confess I've spent [ a small amount of ] actual time thinking about this: has it occurred to anyone else to wonder what tultedspoon means?

Like for example, "tilted spoon" in Glaswegian?  Could a lot of things be explained by being on the receiving end of one too many "Glasgow kisses"?

Hey ovoidhunter - sorry you’re under the weather and feeling regretful about you choices…no fun.

You could possibly go back to your old job, tell em you made a hasty decision and would like to get back on and see how that goes. Worst that can happen is they say no.  This kind of thing happens all the time. 

Alternatively, if you work through the plan you laid out for yourself the other day when you first made your decision for this change, you will learn new things, hopefully find more satisfying work, and probably make new friends.

Best wishes to you for speedy recovery from the flu!

The agar and cult stuff is new and it will come along for you, it just takes some cycles of learning, trying, partially failing, and doing it again and again until you are happy with the outcomes.  You got this!

Peace to you, friend!

I have set myself up to do it financially and my whole thing right now is attempting to do it even if I fail. I usually adapt okay to a new job its just a little much right now. Im sure it will all come out in the wash.

My old jobs management treated me bad. They got mad at me for taking all the work away from other nightshifters. It was not cool. I got in trouble for trying to work the max ammount basically and was doing it to the extent that according to them it was taking away from others. I figured it best to leave and slow down my pace and healthcare should give me a better work/life balance I'm thinking.


All of my family and freinds are in healthcare and its been something I've wanted to try. I figured being a nurses assistant is the best way to get started and figure out if I like it instead of going to school for something in particular first without being exposed to the environment. I'll get to be around different people doing different jobs and assist with alot of things. Hopefully I'll find something that sits in my mind to do.

The instant pot I used was rated for 12 psi. I held that pressure for about 30 minutes so im hoping it sterilized it. Dropped some spores on them so we'll  see.

We had much ice last night, but I knew it wasn't that bad when I heard my gf getting out of the shower at 7am to go to work. Glad I already planned on working remotely today, as the roads are pretty much dry now. That won't stop me from day drinking... I mean working remotely.

We ended up with 6” of ice over top 5” of snow. I shoveled it out yesterday around noon. So now it’s just 4” and it’s solid. Which is drivable. 

My kids will be home all week. They have Thursday and Friday off and there’s  no way Fairfax county gets the side streets clear by Thursday.

Because you asked.
I think of a tulted spoon as something that as soon as it touches your tongue makes you react in an incredibly negative fashion due to its bitterness.
But no I had not really put any thought behind it until now.
