Years of wakeboarding. I should've known, seeing all the knee braces on the older guys.
Moved into a newly renovated flat that hadn't been cleaned. So there was a think layer of brick/plaster dust all over every surface. Then spent months fighting a four figure electricity bill because it turns out the builders had used my particular flat to charge their kit for months.
If you go down the panels route, DIY styrofoam sound diffuser panels can be a fun (and cheap) project if you're into that kinda thing!
9 failed attempts before the real doctor relocated it on first try. I only found out because I sneaked a look at my notes. WTF indeed...
Dislocated shoulder. It went over the front of the socket which is apparently quite rare, and the most painful. I was blacking out front the pain, a friend fainted, ambulance gave me laughing gas which was great. Hospital visit was not fun, they tried various kinds of morphine which didn't seem to have much of an effect, then ended up giving me some sort of date rape 'cooperative sedation' meds and letting the student doctors take turns to fail at relocating my arm and fuck up the socket even more.
Renault Vivaro. She's called Julie. Julie Vandrews. Also know as me Julie.
Yeah I'm lucky I guess that my particular condition is deemed not serious enough to warrant carrying medication. Just gotta live with it, thoroughly unpleasant when it happens though!
I should probably carry this, my heart likes to randomly decide 220bpm is a good idea every now and then.
As an avid VR gamer I just wanted to say that's a great summary.
You can, if you want to, explore the world of teledildonics linked to VR experiences if you really want to go full Demolition Man.
I almost exclusively play VR FPS these days. I only have time for short <1hr play sessions so my RPG days are on hold until life allows it.
GPs are not science, they are people. People make mistakes. They also have varying levels of education, mental health issues, personal problems, general human stuff.
This is what has worked for me but only really applies if you're a certain kind of couple. Also kinda depends on how long you're going for and which country/countries you're visiting... Personally I think it's easy to over plan and we both hate working to strict itineraries. Strip you plan back to bare bones, book any internal travel and a few hotels along the way but don't book all your accommodation, so you can be flexible. Talk to locals and other travellers to get tips on what's on and general local knowledge. Do your research so you have a priority list of things you'd like to do/see. Pin all this on Google maps. Make it an adventure rather than a sanitised trawl through tourist spots.
Once had to explain to an old lady (in full-time employment in a job that requires use of a computer) that the mouse moves around on the desk surface. She was trying to move the cursor by putting the mouse on the screen.
Glad you enjoyed it! You must have very good coordination I think my high score is under 30!
I've called for an ambulance twice in the UK and both times they told me I should drive instead.
I'd heard so many good things about DE but the voice acting felt so jarring it really put me off. Words completely mispronounced (or maybe bad translation) in the intro and no sense of flow whatsoever.
Arguably anything man-made makes a view worse, but as far as man-made structures go they're beautiful. And they give you a free wind gauge just by looking out the window. I'd rather see thousands of turbines on the horizon vs the glow of oil fields or plumes of smoke/steam.
