Natter 76: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Foaminess
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Gud, I take it from you saying you don't have either Covid or flu that you've seen a doctor? If not, please do.
106 is out of control, but even 104 is high for an adult. Does your doctor know you still have a fever? They might want to repeat a test.
I'm sorry the situation at home is so rough.
Fuck your wife, Gud. Seriously.
This. 106 will make you delirious.
She is shitty fucking human being.
Oh Gud, I wish you could see just how much you are *not* a jerk. You cannot even rest when you're sick, which is the only thing expected to do when one is sick. This is not being a jerk. This is taking care of yourself, so that you can heal. You deserve rest. You deserve feeling better and being healthy. You deserve not being shout at when you are sick. You deserve people who are taking care of you, sick or not. This is how life should work, not by you taking care of 150% of other people's wants and needs.
Please see a doctor. Please take care of yourself and rest. And please stop listening to your wife. You are loved and appreciated and deserve much better than this.
Gud: extreme fever. Wife: WHAT ABOUT MEEEE?
I'll tell you what will happen without you: she won't be able to pay bills, do laundry, get groceries, deal with her website or clean the carpet. Why would you wish this harridan on another man? What did he ever do to deserve this extremely bad behavior?
The only reason I would yell at my husband with a 104 fever would be if he was refusing to go to the doctor or ER. Yes, I would be freaked out. I would also be taking care of him and doing everything I could to help him feel better.
Your wife is abusive, Gud. You are not a jerk. Never in over 30 years of marriage has my husband made me feel like I was a jerk. He is my biggest advocate. Yes, we disagree, and even fight. But never has he treated me as anything less than a treasured partner. It is wrong and you deserve much better.
Also, why and I watching news? A much better plan would be to avoid all media for a couple months.
And the turkey post -
Happy birthday wishes to Sophia and smonster today!
(I may get on to FB later, but not up to it yet)
Gud, jerks seldom, if ever, worry that they are jerks. Hence, you are NOT a jerk. You are ill and exhausted and your partner is NOT being a good partner.
I am in the Pit of Despair(TM).
I fell skating outdoors yesterday and hit the pavement pretty hard. I feel like I've been hit by a bus. ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET! Mine saved my nut, which double bounced.
UGH.
I made a display of RBG children's books this morning. Most of the books are already gone.
Happy Sophia and smonster days!
And ugh, Cashmere. I hope you'll feel better soon.
Gud, how are you doing today? Did you see a doctor?
ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET! Mine saved my nut, which double bounced.
Good to hear the nut was protected. Yes, I learned that lesson early in life. Helmets are good.
Yes, I hope to hear that Gud is getting proper medical care.
