I never understood the "loud noises and sun being too bright" phenomenon that allegedly accompanies hangovers. I finally experienced it last Thursday as I was walking back to the office with other similarly hung over co-worker friends from a Thai lunch. I was even wearing sunglasses...:fu:

I was using a hotel toothbrush the other day. I ******* hate that unfamiliar feeling of a different toothbrush. I was in a bit of a hurry and managed to poke my lower gums and drew blood.

Result: Two days later I have self inflicted canker sores :fu:

Not really bad until I drank some orange juice and felt the weirdly addicting pain of cankersore + acid.

the pro-tip os putting alum (aluminum potassium sulfate) on them! it stings for 3 seconds then is numbed for the next hour - enough to deal with things like eating - if the sores are getting that bad.

I've had good luck clearing them up by brushing with baking soda, but I get them from eating acidic foods, not from stabbing myself in the gums.

Ugh. I hate canker sores. For some reason I've been getting them almost nonstop for the last couple of months, and it blows.

I've had good luck with taking lysine when I have one, and it seems to help. It's especially good if I start it early, like right when I get a cut in my mouth or feel that little raw spot. It will stop it from getting worse and heal it faster.

I'm glad you posted about the alum. I remembered you posting that another time, and I've been trying to recall what it was. Now I know!

my company has a zero tolerence policy for drugs. when you take the job, you sign a document that says that if you are foind to have illigal subtances in your blood, you will be fired with no chance to fight it, essentially.
a year or so before I joined, our corporation bought a company, most of the employees were tech support. the boss there decided, for some stupid reason, to do a surprise drug test. p;retty much everybody failed and had to be fired. there was a discussion among all the department people never to do a test again. I've never heard on one being doine since.


:crackup:


I have never been drugtested or been asked to do a breathalyzer test by the police, I feel like I'm missing out here.

I was in New Haven at Yale today, its is kinda warm outside, so being in a relationship is angering me quite a bit today.

I wield that power... I haz the power to demand a drug test to anyone at work whom I suspect(?!) of having consumed illegal substances. I also haz the power to send anyone home whom I suspect of being under the influence of alcohol or drugs. and I haz the final say. I haz also used that power. I rule.

For the first time in my life I'm faced with the possibility of failing a course. Everything that could go wrong has. I missed the first midterm because I was sick which has set me up for a cumulative final worth 70%. Unfortunately I got the date of the exam wrong so I didn't get the chance to study the material as much as I wanted. On top of that, I couldn't fall asleep last night and feel like total ****.

At this point, I just want it to be over.
