So...how to tell if you have formalin poisoning

[cornerofmadness]

okay there's no real question of it. Only it's NOT formalin. It's carolina's special blend which I'll have to call and get the info on. They make me do dissection in a barely ventilated room. After being in there for 4 hours today, my eyes were red, my throat felt like I swallowed acid and I could hardly speak. I've had formaldehyde poisoning once back in medical school ( the ventilators broke and they didn't believe us until we started showing up with neuropathies). I've already whined about this to adminstration (and no I wasn't kidding about suing if I get cancer about this, people in charge, just so we're clear)

Tomorrow is the LAST day I have to get up early (friday being my late day) for MONTHS. WHEE. Yeah I get paid shit but I have so much time off it's criminal.

there were ticks on roy

there were ticks on Kyo

there was a tick on my FACE.

God I hate spring sometimes

My car was covered in plant spooge again. Yeah spring thanks for nothing. Die


There was more I wanted to do other than bitch but I'm mentally exhausted (I've spent 9 hours so far this week just grading)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

I couldn't even pick up any last night. "You have four hatchlings and surely that's enough."

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

It likes EVERYONE better, obviously.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Until now, at least. *laughs*

[mulzrule.livejournal.com]

Eep! Hope you're feeling better and good luck with finishing work. Those dragons are really pretty, especially that second one.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i'll recover wonce that lab is done

yes they are

[enemytosleep]

Plant spooge on car = rage.

I woke up this morning with a head so full of sinus fluid I could hardly lift it off the pillow. Never-mind the way my chest closed up and I couldn't breathe. XD I hate Spring.

Um, and don't get cancer from work. It's not cool. I need to get a face mask since the dog hair is really affecting me (I'm allergic and it's really done wonders for my asthma).

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

tell me about it. Claritin does nothing

blinks, thinks on your job...

[enemytosleep]

Cool, I gave you a moment almost as awkward as your dead cat inards post. XD

I'm a dog groomer AKA Canine Stylist. ^_^

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

hahah

yeah that's what i was thinking...she grooms the critters she's allergic to..

[enemytosleep]

But of course! I wouldn't be me if I didn't do something silly like roll around in dog hair all day (while breaking out and wheezing).

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

HAhA

[a2zmom.livejournal.com]

Ticks completely squick me. I have very few fears but that's one of them.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i feel l ike they're crawling all over me. God I hate them.

[chaos-by-design.livejournal.com]

I'm glad Lupin's an indoor cat. I guess it's probably harder to make ex-strays indoor only though.

Making you do dissections in a room that's not well ventilated does seem like a pretty major workplace safety violation.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I tried hard and failed and have damages to repair as result.

I was sitting outside myself when the tick got me

oh no kidding. I've b een saying that for 4 years

[chaos-by-design.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm not surprised.

Have you tried calling in OSHA or whatever organization is responsible for enforcing workplace safety?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

long ago They seem to think its in compliance (not to mention none of the safety equipment works..)

[chaos-by-design.livejournal.com]

crap. that sucks.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

nods

[lilachigh.livejournal.com]

clicked. Ticks? Ugh!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I know. Are they a problem over there too?

Hey my sunset just grew up

[sillymagpie.livejournal.com]

there was a tick on my FACE.

EEEEEEEEEEEYAAAAH! ::runs screaming into the night::

I think it's summer here already.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

maybe summer will kill the ticks.

god i hate them

[0-mother-0.livejournal.com]

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[back2real.livejournal.com]
