#and constantly dehydrated

[mod-olivo]

Funny how I’m majoring in psychology and I’m SPECIFICALLY learning about how sleep, hydration, and consumption of food are important for mental and emotional health and how energy drinks and late nights are really fucking bad for you and yet I’m still awake into the early morning—

WOO, finished my first shift in the ED (pediatrics) as a doctor! Family medicine was so the right choice for me, haha, the emergency department is... a lot. And I wasn't even doing anything crazy! It's just the amount of multitasking required that's stressful to me.

I did see 5 patients where most people end up seeing like 2-3 on their first day just as they're learning the EMR and stuff, so that contributed to things piling up near the end, but I managed to get out only about 20 minutes after my shift ended and have no notes to finish writing at home, so that part's great!

All the attendings and seniors were very nice, though. Not all of them are amazing teachers, but one was really great about it, and he was there from before 9am to 2pm so it was only four hours after that with the folks that were a little more absorbed in their own work vs precepting.

Tomorrow is clinic, which is a relief... I like my lower-acuity outpatient scheduled visits, hahaha.

Still very nice to see Dr. [Name] written on things. 🤭

I can't believe they're making Pedro get a six pack for the Gladiator sequel. You can't just deface a work of art like that. That's like going to see Michaelangelo's David and going "No actually his penis should be bigger. Somebody get me some plaster." Totally unnecessary.

oh nooo that's quite a bummer :( but i'm very glad that i helped brightening up your day :") tbh your writing brightens up my day too (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

AND WAIT I'VE BEEN ACTUALLY QUITE THINKING ABOUT WHETHER ZOMBIE MOB HAS FOUGHT OFF A ZOMBIE WHEN I ASKED IF HE HAS EVER BITTEN SOMEONE and since you brought it up, well, would be okay to ask about the details of how it went 👁️👁️ (also him fighting off a fellow zombie to protect tome got me sobbing)

- 🪻

aww im glad my silly little words brighten ur day!! ur so sweet :]

and yes, it went horribly <3! tome prolly wasn't paying attention as closely as she should've been and got herself surrounded by a crowd. to be clear, that's not Always dangerous, since zombies arent like,, after ur brains in this constantly. but these zombies did look quite hungry, and human or not, she looked like a good meal,,

she had wandered off a bit from mob n ritsu, but mob heard the commotion first. tome has a big fucking baseball bat in this au that she likes to swing around, but a baseball bat can only get u so far in terms of self defense. she thins the horde but there's simply too many of them

mob lets exactly One zombie grab her and yank her toward them before he goes ballistic

watching zombies fight is a lot closer to watching wild animals fight than anything else, and it gets quite horrid sometimes. since their bites aren't rly "dangerous" to each other beyond the typical Oh No a Chunk of Flesh is Gone (not even painful for them, since their nerves r.. less than functional), the fight is a lot more close up and gruesome than a fight against a zombie and a human would be. humans usually back away from zombies immediately and try not to touch them at all in fear of getting bitten; zombies don't need to care abt that

most of the horde realizes that this meal isn't going to be easy and they wander off, but a few more hungry, more desperate ones try to rip into mob's throat at the first sign of defiance. it's not exactly a fair fight; it's like 1 against 4, so he's sorta bound to lose

thankfully ritsu shows up and shoots two of them down (he's Terrified of shooting mob by accident, but either way he'll probably die, so) and tome gets the last one with a good swing to the head. ritsu rushes to mob and is horrified by the amount of blood dripping from his neck and his arm; tome is equally as shocked, but she's mostly thinking, "ive Never seen a zombie defend a human before"

mob's neck is thankfully mostly just scraped up and clawed, but there Is some gruesome punctures where canines sank in and tugged. it's a lot worse along his arm that's bitten and gouged beyond belief. he loses a lot of blood here, but the whole nerves-no-longer-work thing is a blessing in disguise atm; he'd be in a lot of pain otherwise. while ritsu and tome are patching him up w shaky hands he simply glares beyond their shoulders like he thinks he's still in danger, even when they tighten the bandages. it's like he barely notices what they’re doing

his strangely alert behavior makes them think abt the possibility that maybe mob Knows he could've easily been shredded apart there, and he's a little scared and worked up abt it. the only reason he managed to fight as long as he did without dying is prolly bc the other zombies weren't as well-fed as mob—they were kinda weak and shaky from days of no food, but mob has humans taking care of him and keeping him fed 24/7

they're all shaken up by it pretty good.. tome is still reeling from the fact that mob defended her so valiantly, and ritsu is quietly horrified by the idea of another zombie killing mob instead of a human. he doesn't know which is worse

[bo0zey]

anyone else ever get in those silly goofy moods where u just hate urself sooo much that u instantly feel physically almost violently ill just thinking abt urself and also even tho u worked a 12hr shift w no breaks or water running off of the 2 cups of coffee u had for breakfast 20 hours ago, the thought of eating instantly sends bouts of nausea coursing thru ur soul while churning in ur stomach bc ur brain hates u so much that its convinced ur body that u don’t deserve sustenance or anything else that’s life sustaining or promotes ur physical well being because u subconsciously convinced urself that ur such a shit excuse for a human being that u neither deserve nor have any right to anything regarding maslow’s hierarchy of needs bc u r such an awful thing u deserve to be neglected n treated like the nonliving object ur own brain sees ur living body as or am i just mentally ill lol

I’m curious:

For those who have Yuus with some mode of physical disability, how did you deal with Chapter 4, with all the desert hikes?

[hundredpocketed]

dreamt i was beside the atlantic in cold rainy ireland and it was very beautiful very bleak, i was standing on a hill close to the water and everything was very grey and green and also some purple. big heavy threatening clouds and big unforgiving waves, low mountains in the background, i love the landscape and the changeable weather!!!! i woke up beside a different sea which is also beautiful but very still. this morning i felt far too warm, we have to avoid the sun for most of the day because it is genuinely too hot for us. i wear a hat and sunglasses every day and long trousers and long sleeved tops most days and apply waterproof factor 50 every 2 hours (sometimes more regularly if the sun is really intense) and try to walk exclusively in the shade and STILL i get sunburnt!!!!! big red face on me today after a sunset swim yesterday with my love (while wearing factor 50!!) it was beautiful and it felt remote and peaceful out there even though there were soooo many people on the shore. today it rained a little bit and there was a cool breeze, i could have cried. i want it to suddenly cool down to maybe 14° and absolutely lash rain all day i would stand outside in it for a while maybe sit on the ground and get a bit shivery and then go back inside and make myself a hot chocolate. BUT instead I'll be grateful to be here because i AM so grateful and so lucky to be here especially with somebody i love so very much! and i will drink a lot of icy drinks!!!!!
