18650 Battery Store has Samsung 20S on deal of the day for $3.99. They throw in a free gift of cases or wraps with your purchase, too.

Samsung 20S 18650 2000mAh 30A Battery - INR18650-20S

Also 25Rs for $2.99 for those of us not pushing our batteries all that hard. Never used 18650batteries before. Good prices and good shipping rates. IMR has good prices but their shipping costs, I guess because they're Li batteries, have slowly gone up ,and it's still the same ground shipping. So thanks, I always meant to give them a try.

Grabbed some extra coils for my Bohr pod today, along with a bunch of juice. Consumables that were needed, therefore not subject to a shiny budget cap. And batteries are like throwing some candy in the cart when you get to the cashier, they don't count either.

As an aside, the original 0.4 ohm coil in the Bohr is still going as strong as it started. On Sunday I had my first harsh hit from it. I thought OK, it gave me a week, can't complain. Took a look and the pod had been sucked dry. OK, one of the issues of a pod where you can't easily see the juice level. Again, can't complain, as I got a week, and if I singed it my bad. Filled it back up, took a tentative draw, and..................tasted like new.:confused:

It's like the Energizer bunny. I ordered a pack because it can't possibly last that much longer. I'm sure the one I'm using now is a unicorn coil, and 4 out of 5 in the next pack will die in 2 days, but I can dream, right?

Groovy. Yeah, I've ordered from them several times with good results. Their shipping is a lot faster than IMR in my experience, too.

WoW getting this bottle into the Luna I one thing, but getting it out is quite another....i'm afraid its starting to test our friendship.

It gets better after a few tries. Getting a 510 fill bottle is an option so you don't have to remove the bottle all the time. The tubing doesn't have to stick out of the bottle very much at all to attach. If you leave it pulled too far out of the bottle it's more work. Also, I wouldn't try removing a full bottle period. It's asking for a mess.

The first goodies roll in. That purple isn’t too bad for a $30 luck of the draw. Got my wire, too, some 28 g because they were low on 26. Should be fine. And some random high speed intelligent data transfer cord I didn’t order.

Those look nice. Are you planning on polishing them up?

Have one of these coming from vapor range. Anyone have any experience with one?

I ordered some food grade mineral oil to try on one, see how that goes. I’ve just been too busy for a project lately.

Very niiiiiice Luna's. I like that purple Luna. It looks sharp with the greens/blues/natural wood. Backside too.

iHoly Crud,

I been like, having a distinctly unshiny TIME. I went to Walmart, after "anger yoga" which sure works for breaking out in a sweat. I also ache all over today but my body could sure do a lot more things when I informed it I was MAD at it. Like A LOT more things. My body is probably terrified of my mind, in all fairness. Not what you'd call relaxing. I took the afternoon off after work, it's been 4 days, my body was advising me it was smart.

So well I went to WALMART (took forever) got a scale got on it 10 lbs more that SUCKS. That's like five pounds a week. So like 6 more weeks until my LABWORK? THIRTY more pounds? I don't think so.

So like I got all this healthy food and nothing fun that I like, really. I also decided to buy a stair thing but the Walmart in DOUGLAS does not have exercise equipment on display (I'm not sure if any do anymore) but like it had nothing of the sort just some stationary bikes from like the 80s. I was not impressed. I will have to order from Amazon. Etc.

I am stuck in this terrible bind. If I return to eating disordery behaviors enough I am FAIRLY sure I can halt the weight gain, I mean I'm GOOD at it. So then the doc will be like ,"But you only gained 15 lbs that's NOTHING." Only I am not PREPARED to gain 60 lbs in 8 weeks to like "prove" my dose is low.

This leaves me with some unpalatiable options. I guess I could tell her all the things I did/could do/will do if she don't fix it and that is MUCH more likely to like, result in her telling me off.

I could take some of my nature thyroid which I have hidden away, and let her think her dose is doing... whatever. Only it might be bad. In which case she would REDUCE my Synthroid which I have to admit I FELT better on .Operative word being "felt."

I could do what I normally do and just gain all the weight but like SERIOUSLY I CANNOT do that.

I could go to Mexico (I hear that there's plenty of pharmacias) and buy my OWN damn Synthroid only it might be just dried pig hoof or whatever.

Anyway, my functioning has not been the greatest. Work was super slow and like okay but the kid and the husband both like had fits at each other about the laws (felonies) regarding leaving dogs in cars and how you can be arrested for entering the convenience store without your dog if it's in the car. I don't care about how these laws impact me other than the smart people are getting "companion" animal stickers to shove on their pet and there you are in the convenience store and like some crappy "emotional to me pet" is like ...... on your leg. Leave it home or let it die, is my attitude just don't do THAT.

So then the husband got into it with the kid and they argued and my son said he was going to come down and beat up the husband and I was like "SIGH WHO STARTED THE DISCUSSIION."

it was the husband and like, while I agree threatening to beat up the husband was an irrational act, HE KNOWS what the kid is like about animals he hasn't discovered kids are at all cool yet and I just wanted to BEAT the husband myself if it came down to it.

I called the husband, he .....ed, I REAMED him out for DARING to tell me the kid was gonna come get him. Then he got into all my family's "unsavory stuff" and I was like "Husband, your stepfather owns a BILLION guns. He literally has an arsenal. DO NOT begin to blame me for ANYTHING related to this subject. I have no interest. I kept putting it back on him (I did tell him I texted the kid he should not threaten his stepdad) until he hung up.

Has not been a great day. ALso need to rewick and stuff A LOT. Not going well. I should probably eat, vape a bit, then do it. I'm all shaky.

I'm not sure which is worse, this state or gaining 60 lbs. I've gained a lot of weight fast and you GET STRETCHED OUT more and it's freaking hard to lose.

having a hard time not hating MUCH ATM hard to say.

Oy
