Complaint: I can't believe my eyes! https://www.today.com/health/what-color-are-circles-viral-optical-illusion-baffles-internet-t134021
I saw this yesterday. I maintain that the stripes that are inside the circles are part of the circle for if you ignore the stripes, there are no circles.
So my answer to the question what color are the circles is: multi-colored striped.
Well it definitely is global, it's really hot everywhere. First picture is from the heatwave in june 1976, the second from june 2018.
I am stuck waiting at a doctor office for someone I do not know. It is not for my appointment or for anyone I know. It is because my ride refused to drop me off at a library in a timely manner. She dropped other people off but not me. Of course she is not picking on me or anything like that. She is just ignoring me.
If you got the prescription filled at a pharmacy, talk to your pharmacist. I have found that pharmacists know more about the pills than the the drs do.
I am angry! My day is ruined. Or at least my morning is. I was going to have a good day, but my ride refused to take me to library in a timely fashion. Still not at the library.
we take the good with the bad
hot hot hot
humidity is yukki this week. my dayjob filter humids for the computer room, but not for the people rooms >.<
just got the robo call refill is ready. cvs robo calls, makes it stoooooop!!!
Can't have 2 Content Libary panes open is annoying me more and more.
crud ordered the compression socks this mornin, then started googlin how i'se supposed to use em.
saw like so many different types.
i called the doctor office for some clues.
turns out they were supposed to give me a script, cuz they measure you and give a teaching class on it.
they telling me if i go to particular place they can fax them the script.
so like, they somehow involved with a product line.
so like, they telling me to do something that will make them more money,
i'm feeling spiteful now, won't go somewhere they makin more money from me.
on the brite side, a script means mebbe insurance will pay some of it.
vascular wear, yeesh
Same here, used to be dry. All the water that is evaporating because of the heat must be building up in the air, we're probably going to get some heavy rain at some point.
....'plaint. woken up a t around 02:30 last night by hearing someone in the hallway yelling in the hallways. Apparently this person had some sort of argument with someone in one of flat across the hall and chose the early morning hours to vent their feelings for about 45 minutes. Bad enough it is difficult to get a decent night's sleep with the current heat then this happened. I wasn't the only one woken up of course pretty much everyone on the floor in this area of the building was (save for the fellow next door who works nights).
Reported it to the office this morning and the manager mentioned they have been experiencing issues with the people in that unit (this was the same one that only weeks after I moved in, smoked the whole floor out by burning something in the kitchen at 01:30 in the morning forcing us all to evacuate).
...and here I was so glad to get out of that house I lived in where the husband and wife argued loudly almost constantly often late at night. Made Ralph and Alice Kramden look like real lovebirds.
...non-plaint
Happy Birthday Leela!

Complaint: Ummm..., give me a moment... I know I must have something to complain about...um...um...weather?...No, it's been pretty well behaved here lately
...Um, health?...Um, nope, I'm still upright, above ground and in no major pain
...Finances?...Um, no cigar there either, I'm no Scrooge McDuck but I still have a few dollars in the bank, and if I'm careful they'll last until next "payday"
...Politics?...<Um, less said, the better>...
.. Um, DAZ?...nope, haven't wanted anything desperately from them, but I did pick up a couple freebies from them, so, that's cool.
Um...Human nature?..Aye, there's something I could rant about.
I tend to notice it being too much like Simian nature, especially when observiing other drivers.
OK, today's complaint topic is other drivers.
1) Why is it that other drivers can't stop at an intersection before their vehicle's engine is over the white line and halfway into the pedestrian crossing area?
2) Alternatively, some people haven't learned about parallax and believe that when the white line disappears behind the front end of their hood (bonnet) they're over the line when in fact they are still 16 feet behind the line.
3) Why is it that when you're in the righthand lane (in the US) and you've stopped properly at the white line of an intersection and are looking left & right to assess oncomming cross traffic before attempting to turn right (in the US), that someone in a monster truck will pull up next to you across the line and completely block your view of the traffic coming from the left (in the US), They're sitting 2 feet above your head in the truck and could see over an elephant so why do they feel the need to block your view?
I'll add to that. Why does everyone who drives one of those monster 4x4s (even worse now with a full size cargo bed AND a 4-door cab) seem to be height challenged; can't see over the dashboard. Also, why must they always choose to park beside my (normal) 2-door coupe at the grocers? Invariably I have one on either side when I exit the store, when there were two vacant spots when I entered.
My uncle used to be a taxi driver, he always said that you should "drive as if all the others are idiots".
plaint - i don't trust the nurse practioner to be deciding my medication. i called them monday to tell them i'm not taking the metfornin amymore, i had no will to live with the side effects. they called me back to tell me to stop the merfornin. i'm supposed to make an appointment with nurse practioner about diabetic pills, but i only want to talk to the actual doctor about it. >.< i'se screwed.
did a workout last night with a personal trainer. what a difference when the professional explains exercises and machines. he said he grew up with ms, so he understands what handicap is like.
He taught me how to get out of a car, didn't even think to ask about, thought i'd be graceless the rest of my life.
tried it this morning and it worked.
plant your heel, put the other foot forward a little bit, then push out of the car seat with hands, rocking forward, sitting in the seat sideways.
still fuzzy on all the abudtion muscle stuff.
did 3 doggy paddle laps on a pool noodle. wheee
20 minutes on the recumbent bike. my heart rate went up to 114 after 8 minutes. my resting rate is 92, dunno what normal is. there's a formula to figure out your target cardio rate, my particular target is 166. don't think that will ever happen, would be totally happy if i can get to 125-130. the machine, was a star trac has levels 1 - 20, i pedaled at level 2
don't think i'se ready for a pilates class, but might try it anyway. hopefully, someone would call an ambulance for me if it doesn't work out well.
after all this fun, SCAT bus didn't show up to take me home, i was totally stranded. texted my neighbor if she'd come save me, she told me to call the bus company. it was almost 9pm, the bus office is closed.
so i sat on a bench outside the club, in the driving rain, sobbing with despair. nice person came out said whats the matter. he drove me home, is a about a 15 minute ride from the fitness place. i been having so much fun this month had no emergency taxi money, prolly woulda been a Lor.
sigh
scary next week, going to the retina specialist.
and the spine doctor who did the emg on me legs,
gonna find out the results, emg didn't go well.
need something fun to do this weekend. mebbe my nails done. refresh the lovely blue nailpolish.
heard really horrible things about the gel nailpolish. don't do it!
Okay I will not talk about gel nails so I will not hear horrible things about them. o.0 Shhhhhh. . . we are not talking about gel nails, okay?
Complaint I came to library too late to enjoy time before going to the movies. My ride is at 2 and it is almost 2pm.
Trucks and SUV's everywhere! When I go to the market, Walmart*, any shopping, They are all over and sometimes take up more than one space lengthwise. Trying to back out from between them is difficult. I've taken to beeping my horn as I back up, like the backup beeps of a truck. At least it gets attention and people don't just walk right across my path...usually. There are always the idiots who think you can see them and just keep walking. Scary.

Because most of them seem to be!

@Misty: When I went to the gym in the 80's I was told the target aerobic heart rate is 220 minus your age. Don't know if that's still the rule or not, but I think so. At the time, my resting heart rate was around 60. Athlete rate.

Other drivers complaint:
4) I don't see it much around here, but when I lived in Washington DC there were a lot of expensive ($$$$$$) cars on the roads and in parking lots and some of them were obviously owned by people who couldn't afford to get them fixed if scratched, so they deliberately took up two parking spaces to keep the plebians safely away. But since I've moved to outer nowhere, taking up two spaces isn't a big deal, the local suburban mall is nearly dead and nobody goes to the stores in the inner city (geriatric haven) anymore so parking spaces are not a problem. One could host a circus tent in the parking lot and have space left over, but in Washington, DC parking space is a rarety. Around Christmas I've seen fashionable women get out of their luxurymobiles wade through the snow in their glitzy shoes and beat each other with their overpriced purses to lay claim to a parking space at the Neiman-Markus store.
(Simian nature)
60?!
