I've been stressing about driving on three bald tires and a spare for weeks, figuring I'm one blowout away from my van being inoperable. So today it shuddered, shut down, and just won't start again. Whee hee hee hee hohoho ahahahaha

Also my knee gave out partway through class and I can barely walk. I've improvised a brace made of one of my bandanas, but now I look like a tard with a red bandana around my leg. Throw in things falling off the shelf into sinks full of chemicals to splash in my face and the worst cooking team imaginable "helping" me during class and I'm pretty sure this is turning out to be one of the Shittiest Shit Days in recent memory.

Seriously class was so bad I'm waiting for another one to start so I can sit through part of it and pick up what I missed while covering for someone else's incompetance. I guess this is better career training than how to make profiteroles.

Sitting in my broken-down van, right leg stiff to immobility, with two dozen empty eclair shells in the seat next to me. Oh yes. My pastry cream busted. That happened.

You should probably just eat eclair shells and chocolate until you pass out.

Act one: "You'll be fine leaving your car here overnight, just tell security." Act two: "It's fine, we won't tow it." Act three: "This vehicle has been immobilized because it was illegally parked, see security to pay your fine and have the boot removed."

Lesson:  Keep a note pad on you at all times and take names.  Just because the shift IC cares about you as a human being and will ensure that your car is under his care during the watch doesn't mean that the next one will, nor that the first one will have the brains to pass it on the the next shift.  If he was that smart, he wouldn't be a rent-a-cop if he didn't want to.

Also, leave Atlanta.  This goes for all of you people who seem to have a miserable string of shitty days and seem to have just resigned yourself to them.

Just fucking get out of Atlanta.  Or, if you're not in Atlanta, get out of where you are.  And do not under any circumstances find your way to Atlanta!

"She wasn't going to help me." "If she was, I think you lost her at 'If I leave it here another night, are you going to put another boot on it?'" "Yeah, well. If I'm being a smartass to someone I need help from I've already concluded they're not going to help me. It's just catharsis at that point."

I've only been up for a couple hours but today's set to follow the trend.

Riding the train for five hours today sucked but it did give me a good chance to study for next week's quiz in Pastry. If anybody needs to know the eight things you can make from eclair dough I got you covered.

I'd really like to stop having reason to... What am I on now, quadruple-posting? in this thread. Knee gave out at work as expected, have to tough out the next five hours basically on one foot.

Worked too late last night to take a train home. Needed the extra hours and pay but had to blow four hours' worth on cab fare. Also my dog's chronic cough has gotten worse and fuckall if I can get him to the vet or pay for the visit.

I guess no matter how bad it gets I can always be a bad example.

I think I'm to a point beyond my ability to cope. Anyone willing to volunteer something to help, PM me. I'll respond to PMs with my Paypal address as soon as I remember which one it is.

Having actually spent time with the big moment I've been dreading, I'm going to just toss it out there anyway.


The past few weeks have been this house descending into a depressive insanity. Internally, my mother is adapting to her cancer extremely poorly and is prone to just spending days sort of wandering around the house in a daze, pausing only to eat, sleep, bio, and cry. My dad's health deteriorates as well from seeing this, as well as learning that his own mother's mental state due to Alzhimers and other problems has gone so far down the hellhole that she's been lying to the entire family my dad is in to put him and all his siblings against each other, by saying how badly each one's treating her, and now he has to go out there and try to get shit sorted out (and there's a terrifying fucking chance her health's so far gone that she may bite it)


And today my aunt gets here, the smoking, drinking, narcissistic, racist, prejudicial aunt who, when my mother had cancer, called her up and told her to just "Get over it" after hearing how badly she was taking it.

On top of all this, my math class has been schitzophrenic due to the teacher first assinging tons of homework, realizing he'd have to grade it, scaling it back, and then the local case of a 16 year old who raped a 5 year old, and when she woke up in the middle of it, beat her to death and then finished, he was a family friend and he was completely fucking out of it this whole past week.


...so yeah if I've seemed weird, distant, or just nonresponsive this past few weeks this is kind of why.
