I have a lot to talk about and so little time to type right now. I’ll definitely come back and update this soon because I want to write down as many details as I can remember so I don’t lose them...
Fair Offer/Recovery in Life in General
We finally got an offer on Jessica’s old car. They’re gonna give us $8300 which is barely below market which we’ll happily take since the car wasn’t in perfect shape before the accident. It ran p...
Surgery- check in Life in General
So yesterday I had my surgery, finally. Honestly the only part I was scared about was the anesthesia. I’m a bit of a control freak which is why I don’t like being drunk/high…none of that. I don’t...
Repair Quote in Life in General
$1000 to fix her car. That’s exactly what the deductible is. If I had known this would be a regular occurrence I would have chosen a much lower deductible but I figured she’d be more careful with...
I'm calmer in Life in General
I’m still really upset about the car but I was definitely too fired up to write earlier. I should have probably waited a little bit but she didn’t want me telling friends or family out of embarra...
I'm upset in Life in General
My wife’s next car is 100% gonna be a beater because she clearly doesn’t know how to take care of a nice one. Literally last week she calls me and tells me she scraped a pole and took some paint ...
Homeowners* in Life in General
So my in-laws bought us a house.... Like wow… I mean they did finance it and plan to have us cover the mortgage after a short period of moving back but the fact that they’re giving us a grace per...
3 more weeks in Life in General
So I had my consultation this morning for my gallbladder surgery. It went well, the doctor seemed confident and knowledgeable which was reassuring. My anxiety recently has been about my fatty liv...
Finally Some Answers? in Life in General
So I finally got my HIDA scan. After a little back and forth the insurance approved it and I went today. The hospital tried to charge me an extra $400 for my deductible and I’m like… … “um no ma’...
Stomach Pain in Life in General
I’m losing a lot of weight right now because I’m terrified to eat. I’ve had a few extremely painful attacks recently after eating. I’ve been very careful to eat as little fat as possible, but my ...
New (to us) Car!!!! in Life in General
We bought a ‘22 Hyundai Tucson yesterday! I was sitting at my computer recently and thought to myself “Wait I haven’t really checked the car market north of us. What’s out there?” In my defense, ...
Lawyer Up in Life in General
Welp, I’ve hired my first lawyer ever. Specifically, Jessica hired a lawyer that I found. The insurance has been a total douche situation so far and I have been getting really frustrated. They ke...
Wrecks in Life in General
Jessica got in a wreck yesterday. Specifically, someone rear ended her after she left work and was going to the dentist. She did say that she had to slow down quickly because she almost missed he...
ER Visits in Life in General
So I have kind of hit a stride with my stomach pain issues. My doctor put me on a statin to potentially help ease the strain on the gallbladder until I see the GI (still 3 weeks out ugh). Honestl...
Possible Eureka? in Life in General
I may have discovered at least part of the cause to my recent stomach issues. A bit more on recent developments though. I did end up going to the ER one day because the pain was starting to creep...
More Health Issues in Life in General
About 2 weeks ago I went to the doctor for my continuing stomach issues and she got me a new cocktail of medicine to try. I’m surprised they haven’t tried to refer to me a GI for a scan or anythi...
Stomach Pain in Life in General
I have a new thing I’m getting to worry about health-wise. Stomach pain. It’s in my upper stomach (above the belly button) and seems to get worse throughout day. It’s better when I lay down and w...
Spoke too soon in Life in General
Yesterday I had a pretty nasty tinnitus day again.... Damnit I thought this was solved. It’s 1000% my sinuses though. Every time I notice the high pitch is louder than usual, my ears start poppin...
Eureka in Life in General
My high pitched tinnitus is finally gone. It’s still too early to tell for sure, but it seems like maybe the high blood pressure I’ve been dealing with is to blame for my debilitating tinnitus. M...
I'm falling apart in Life in General
I swear my body has been falling apart over the past few months. Until around the end of October last year, I had very very few health issues. I felt fine most of the time and rarely got sick. Si...
LA in Life in General
We just got back from our trip to LA yesterday. Honestly, most of the trip was really nice and not a whole lot went wrong, except for like 2 things. First of all, I flew separately from Jessica b...
Antibiotics in Life in General
I’m on my third round of antibiotics now for my ear infection. The first two seemed to help while I was on the antibiotics, but the pressure feeling always came back right after I stopped. I’m re...
Tinnitus in Life in General
So I’ve had tinnitus for a long time, like over 10 years. It does suck but I’ve been pretty good about ignoring it most of the time. I only accidentally focused on it when I was in an environment...
Therapy in Life in General
I had my first ever therapy session recently. I woke up on Monday and realized I hadn’t showered in 3 days and the kitchen and my office were a total mess. I hadn’t posted anything online in week...

Contacts So my new contacts arrived about a week ago and they are AWFUL. I had never been so uncomfortable in my life, just felt like sandpaper in my eyes. The doctor told me they get much more c...
