They can be convenient.  For my type of practice they are fairly inocuous to kidneys and liver, and won't mask a fever.  This is very handy if your patients are immunocompromised and you're going to treat them with highly toxic drugs.

I do find the usage of opiates in the British Isles as far heavier than I'm used to. To the point that I'm heavily reliant on the pain management team  (far more than I'm used to) because, as patients are casually  started and left on strong opiates for long periods of time, they are far less responsive to the pain control strategies I'm used to.  This has been a source of frustration for me.

Maybe you need to be more reliant on the pain management team for personal reasons.

We had that problem and I forget what we had to do to comfort the cat to the point where it stopped. It did tho. I can ask.

I have a stye. My woes have gone from inconvenient to sad to life-threatening to just esoteric.

Just learned about the Virginia Beach shooting today, when a Norwegian asked me why the US embassy building had its flag at half-mast...

Say what you will about social anxiety, persistent low-key awkwardness and related discomfort, it is... probably somewhat preferable to being alone with my thoughts and a terrifying lack of toilet paper.

alone with my thoughts and a terrifying lack of toilet paper.

The wank must flow.

[Yoink]

Bruh, who tf needs toilet paper for that?! Dunno about you, but I live in a whole house full of absorbent surfaces. Just a matter of creativity.

I'm so tired. I want to rant about all the fucking dumbasses come in here acting like dumbasses, but their combined idiocy has made me so tired.

I slept like garbage last night despite taking a sleeping pill. Woke up with a splitting headache, and I feel awful. Mehh.

[Yoink]

Speaking of sleep, I was having a strange-but-compelling dream this morning and woke up briefly, twice, for just long enough to disable whichever alarm was going off before plunging back into dreamworld in the hopes of continuing it.

And for all that I only have a couple of fragmented, nonsensical recollections of said dream. I think I almost went somewhere public whilst wearing my tracksuit pants (strictly used as pyjamas) before my housemate kindly warned me, also we had some kinda crackhouse for neighbours and then we went to a video store to browse this gigantic room of DVDs whereupon I found this battered old videotape on a shelf marked with my name and then before long realised my crazy estranged half-sister was nearby and had been leaving things for me in a sort of 'scavenger hunt' in the hopes of forcing me to interact with her because it was my birthday or some other me-centric occasion. My brother was also there, I glimpsed him briefly in a ridiculous video-store staffmember disguise.   

Yeah, there was probably more interesting stuff going on earlier as well, but from what I remember I don't think it was worth sleeping 'til 3pm.
My alarms were for 10 and 10:30, respectively... I guess another day goes by in which I fail entirely to begin fixing my sleeping habits.

A good morning is when you don't wake up until at least noon.

Bay12 is failing to load because mobile data here is incredibly slow. I have these thoughts and shit that I want to express in the sad thread, and I'm forced to write them down in a .txt file until conditions improve. Fucking hell.
