it has been something like. eight or so hours. and i am still trying to figure out how the fuck my eye doctor lost my glasses frames???
like. ive been going to the same eye doctor every year for the last like, six years or something like that. they have never once fucked up this badly.
timeline of events, from my pov under the cut because it got way longer than i thought it would when i first started this.
i go to the eye doctor, having set up an appointment like normal (late because its been a weird summer)
everything goes well until the very end, at which point the computer crashes and loses the data.
annoying, but its fine, i just have to go back in the next day and do it all over again on a saturday while they're busy.
go in again the next day. they're busy as hell, so i am there significantly longer than planned, because i'd set up for a late timeslot on friday for a reason (nobody wants to go to the eye doctor at 6:15 on a friday. trust me. it's great its so dead then.)
go through everything over again, i get a huge discount because i had to go through the inconvenience of coming back to the eye doctor. this is the best news, actually, because i hadn't totally been sold on getting new glasses, but i needed them because my old pair literally make my migraines worse.
the first indication that something was wrong was the fact that they didn't have any trial pairs of the contacts i wear.
This would not cross my mind until i picked up the new contacts a week later when they came in.
I try the contacts. Nothing is properly in focus, and i just think to myself, "oh its just cause i have a new scrip, it's fine, I'll get used to them."
i did not, in fact, get used to them.
About a week later, when my glasses come in, i make a mention to the guy fitting them that the contacts don't seem to be right. he tells me i've got plenty of time to bring them back in, they've got policies for stuff like "wrong prescription"
y'all i went to a friend's house on the other side of town two days later and came home via the bypass in the dark and i couldn't read the highway signs.
that's how badly they fucked this up.
i give it to the end of the week to be sure. End of the first pair of contacts, since i wear biweekly ones.
i go in on friday like "hey. this does not work, when can you get me in?"
and the lady at the front desk was like "well we've got a slot open right now if you've got time"
"nope, i only have until the end of the hour because I'm on lunch from work and i don't have either the contacts or the glasses with me right now. got anything for after (time i got off work that day)?"
"the doctor leaves at (time i got off work), will one of these slots tomorrow work?"
set up the appointment for the next day; i've got my glasses and my contacts and the eye doctor put me through a series of eye tests i'd never actually done before, which was kind of cool.
he was like "if you could shift your bangs back that'd be great, actually, i can't tell if you're squinting or not."
and i was like "well i'm doing my best not to but no problem."
appointment went fantastic, he even had trial contacts for me to put in. i almost cried the difference was so stark between the old scrip and the new one. (turns out the old scrip was just off enough it was giving me low-level headaches constantly. fun! not.)
so i leave the old contacts and the glasses with them to get the lenses replaced and for my new contacts to be ordered. (i looked at the eye chart they sent home with me cause i wanted to see the difference in the prescriptions. there should not be a discrepancy of over a whole number between the two. per eye.)
i picked up the contacts last week.
and now.
today.
this morning, i get two (2) texts saying my orders are in and ready to be picked up. sweet, i think to myself. i'll go pick them up later, get myself a treat while i'm out. grab something for dinner, etc.
i get there and its dead because its been raining all day. fantastic! it shouldn't take long.
i go in.
they're dead.
i let them know i'm here to pick up my order.
here comes today's first confusion: the guy at the desk is having trouble finding my order. which. okay. not a problem (yet).
so i sit and wait and fiddle around on my phone for several minutes while the guy hunts for my glasses.
I am slowly growing more and more confused.
another guy starts helping him out.
the first guy finds a couple of doctor-style ziplock bags and asks me if i have my frames with me.
"Nnnnno. I left them with you guys two weeks ago. I was assuming when I came in, my frames would have new lenses."
I am very confused now.
the gentlemen go on the hunt for my frames.
several more minutes go by, and i am increasingly incredulous and more confused.
i think to myself "did they lose my fucking frames????"
the first guy is sent to the racks of frames to grab a pair of frames that look almost, but not quite, like one of the frames i left with them. blue instead of brown.
the guy goes back in with the frames and i am fully invested.
because.
it sure as hell looks like they lost my fucking frames.
y'all.
they lost my fucking frames.
they got ahold of the lady who's been so helpful basically every time i've seen her and they let me know the situation.
tomorrow, she's going to look into the situation for me. see if she can't find my frames, and if she can't, replace them. gonna call and let me know tomorrow what the deal is.
they offered to give me the blue frames until they could find the frames i'd gotten originally - from THERE, mind you - and i was like
"i don't need the glasses to see. i wear contacts most of the time. my glasses are backups."
so i wasted a solid 45 minutes at the eye doctor today and i'm sure i'll still have to go in tomorrow to talk to someone because they mentioned potentially having to re-order the glasses frames from another store if they couldn't find my glasses.
this was at like. 2:45 this afternoon.
i'm still just like how in the hell did you lose them????
spoke to my roommates earlier about it and they were BOTH like "you are having a shit time with your eyes this year huh?"
and its just like
YEAH. YEAH I AM, ACTUALLY. CAN I GET OFF THIS ROLLERCOASTER NOW
just.

As promised, I submitted both George and Morgan to the @tmnt-oc-comp so we shall see what happens from there. : )
Morgan is not happy about this impromptu trip lol. They don't want to leave their plants unattended.
George just thinks it's neat and is pretty curious about the whole thing.

Employee Profile #135
Employee Profile for; Dr (Formerly) Bernhard Ludwig Medic
Age; 40
Hair; Dark Brown/Black
Eyes; Gray Blue
Blood Type; AB Negative
Height; 6'1"/185.4 CM
Weight; 204 Lbs/92.5 kg
D.O.B.; Oct 30, 1921
P.O.B.; Stuttgart, Germany
Class; Medic
Job; Doctor Assisted Homicide
Background Information; Dr Ludwig has stated part of his inspiration for his practices was in seeing how people were affected by new and upcoming medical practices. His parents, so he has said, were alchemists who refused to touch the medical side of the practice, which he seems to have more than happily learned in their stead. Perhaps watching them is where his habit of mixing chemicals was learned? His combat practices he said were learned during WWII while fighting against certain German forces. Anyone who could be found and interviewed on his combat history said he was a, quote, "frightening devil in the field, wielding tool and concoction as easily as other men aimed bullets", end quote.
Weapons; Medic is primarily trained with various bone saws, some home augmented with needles, crossbows firing needles, and an odd concoction housed in a "medigun" that seems to be turned into vapor that can be concentrated on allies. While he might be able to train with other weapons, he seems to prefer wielding improvised medical tools.
Notes; While he is certainly loyal to the team, Dr Ludwig seems very... eager to subject the others to his "Lifegiving Surgeries". Thankfully, despite this, the team doesn't seem offput by him enough not to trust him in the field. If anything, after the incident in which his medigun gas was first created, they seem to rely heavily on his healing to keep from respawning. He has also greatly streamlined and improved this process. Perhaps a "mad scientist" isn't so bad to have around, and his talents could be directed towards other avenues with time...
Hiring Date; [REDACTED], 1961

Okay I think that's enough for tonight. Tomorrow I have a TTRPG game that I haven't finished getting my character ready for, so I don't think I'll get another 24 posts up and finish posting Round 1 this weekend. I might be able to finish it up Monday before work, but we shall see. Thank you for your patience so far.

『•• ooc update ••』
hello, everyone! 🤎 i hope you’re all doing well! i know that exams, holidays, family, weather, and work can make people feel a bit out of sorts right now, so hopefully everyone’s taking care of themselves as best as possible. i have some updates i wanted to share about my activity and health. · i’ve gone ahead and dropped about half of my threads. that sounds like a lot, but! but... all of the threads dropped were from a couple to few months ago when i ran a single-muse blog for eddie munson, and i had wanted to carry things over here, onto my multi. instead, things sort of got a tad stressful, trying to decide whether to reply to old or new things first, so i just thought it’d be best to, well... only keep threads that have been made since moving to my multi. keep things fresh. or as fresh as possible, since my health made things pile up. (っ- ‸ – ς) · as i’ve stated in my last post about my health here, i suffer from chronic headaches and migraines, and they had gotten worse so roleplaying here had to take a pause. long story short and skipping the gritty details, things seem to be improving, albeit very slowly, but anything could happen at this point. with my recent additions and changes to medication, i’ve been feeling absolutely lousy; just exhausted and queasy all of the time. however, my actual head pain seems to be lessening! this has happened before on previous meds though, and then they’d stop working, so i’m just trying to take things one step at a time and hope that, finally, these ones work in the longterm. i’m so tired of doctor’s visits... ε=o(´ロ`||) good vibes are appreciated, please and thank you... i’m very sorry to anyone waiting on replies from me. it’s been a while, i know. i do very much want to still keep those threads going and write together when i have the strength to do so, but right now, i’m just so... eugh. hiding in the dark sounds good right now... if you want to drop any threads or ships with me because of the wait, you’re welcome to do so, but please do tell me directly! i don’t mind! i understand waiting around sucks. if you don’t want to drop, however, all i ask is for continued understanding while i try to get my pains under control. if you ever want to talk, especially about future plots, you’re always welcome to dm me. i’m sorry again for the wait!

Finished up the main Serenoa and Unoa, though I may go back and fix up some details with Unoa tomorrow as I feel I got a little lazy.
I do like the smile on Unoa though. It's unnatural and fits the unnerving, deeply wrong vibes that hide behind Utility's gilded happiness.

Lil update
I'm getting ready to sleep for the night but we're a few nights into our holiday now. We're staying at centre parcs for a few more days, but we're trying to figure out how we're going home since boats have been cancelled. There's one option I hope we can get. There's an overnight boat on Monday, which would mean we could get breakfast before we leave then head to a town somewhere for the night and actually get a proper shopping day like we were supposed to and we'll be back home in time for Halloween.
I'll probably add onto this tomorrow when we've figured out the situation, but aside from that I've been enjoying the change of scenery. We're really intune with nature, we are literally staying in the woods, so tons of squirrels and some deer have been seen so far. The foods been great as well. Also just a few photos below.

Hello! I've been out of the loop with JJK mange since Yuta joined Culling game, I'm seeing some rumors about Kenjaku using Gojo's powers to commit some international crimes? Can you fill me in please? You can tag spoilers, I don't mind I won't read until Gojo's free anyways.
hello!!
that most recent bit of information about gojou and kenjaku was a part of some leaks that may or may not be fake; i usually read the leaks on fridays when they’re made available with the site i read jjk on, so i can’t really say for sure what all that’s about just yet :)
you haven’t missed much, as most of the culling game so far has just been a series of battles that last for a couple of chapters that result in either the protags upping their body count or gaining a new ally, and they’re getting points either way. so, to recap:
yuuta and rika won all their fights and are fine
miwa’s participating, but we only saw her for like two panels and she looks. bad. she’s not injured or anything, i’m just concerned. the others may or may not be aware that she’s even here.
panda lost to kashimo hajime, who has some personal beef with sukuna and history with kenjaku, but he’s doing fine in a smaller form (he’s toddler-sized now and may or may not have only one core left, having lost his brother and sister. maybe? it wasn’t super clear). kashimo and hakari fought, and when kashimo lost he decided to team up with them so he has a chance of getting at sukuna.
nishimiya’s been playing messenger, but she said she’s planning on working with ui ui to help with colony-to-colony communicaton.
it turns out maki is totally unaffected by the barriers and can travel through them whenever she wants. she’s teamed up with noritoshi and two other players. naoya was there for a little while as a curse, but she leveled up even further, became fully realized, and killed him again. good for her!
the angel (kurusu hana) picked megumi up after he passed out from his fight and ran into yuuji and takaba fumihiko (the comedian guy) along the way. the four of them are up in a hotel together and are planning on getting tsumiki out very soon and freeing gojou.
we still haven’t seen gojou since he was imprisoned, but he could be coming back into the plot soon (either as himself or because he’s being exploited through the cube) because angel has finally been formally introduced as of the most recent chapter.
kenjaku’s most recent appearance outside of a flashback was when the culling game began, i think? when they were entering an international meeting room of some kind? so nothing new. we know gojou and the prison realm are in their possession, so the rumors about them auctioning off his power might be true. i’m kind of hoping against it, though.
all of this could still be a way to start bringing things together, since we’re at a point that each of the teams can start preparing to close in on kenjaku. in the most recent chapter, though, it was revealed that the angel will only let gojou out if megumi and yuuji help them kill sukuna, which obviously puts yuuji in a bad position, even if the angel doesn’t know he’s the vessel yet. these brand-new plot threads seemed really cool and i’m glad the story is picking up again, but the kenjaku auctioneer thing feels like a really abrupt escalation, if not a complete deviation, from what was introduced quite literally just last week.
