SCD: I appreciate it, and part of me understands that a lot of it is out of my control, that the most I can do is watch, but there's this deep, burning desire in me that just wants to help the fuck out of people until they're happy.

So basically the rational and irrational sides of my brain fight a lot.

Spending the whole day in the Hospital today while my mom has surgery. Should be a laugh riot.

That's always shit man, I spent nine years like that. I hope everything goes ok.

This is nowhere near as bad as R^2, Mars, or Doom's problems, but one of my crabs is really sick, and I have no idea what to do. He's really pale, lethargic, and for the past few weeks has been hanging half out of his shell. A few days ago, I found him completely out of his shell, and he's been like that since. He still moves around, but he won't go back into his shell, or into any of the other ones I have in the tank. All five of my other crabs are doing just fine, so I don't think it's contagious, but it's still worrisome.

My biggest problems are being unable to get a job and persistently feeling miserable about that and the state of world, but I'm not getting as crapped on as Lyrai. (I'd talk about my problems, but then I'd sound like a younger Mongrel)

I wish I could help you guys but I'm poor and can't get out of Chico. I've got an internet shoulder to cry on and that's about it. I hope things get better for you guys.

I could really use help killing myself or something.

Oh dear. I'm afraid to ask, but...what's goin' on?

Bal · « **Reply #1308 on:** July 20, 2010, 07:53:06 PM »

Back from the hospital. Mom's alive, which is nice, but she'll be there for awhile. Compare the time stamps if you'd like to see how long my day was. Capper was definitely the lonely bus ride home (I don't own a car), followed by the two mile walk home in 80-90 degree heat, at 8:30 at night. Fucking state.

Joxam · « **Reply #1309 on:** July 20, 2010, 08:34:04 PM »

I hope you feel ok. If you need someone to talk to, look me up man.

Bal · « **Reply #1310 on:** July 20, 2010, 08:45:55 PM »

I've been at this a long time. It's just very tiring to be in the hospital that long.

Thad · « **Reply #1312 on:** July 20, 2010, 09:46:31 PM »

...was going to complain about my electric bill but fuck it, I'm the luckiest guy in the thread.

Good luck to the rest of you.

Except Teg. I do not wish you any luck in killing yourself. Hope you feel better, whatever it is that's up.

I had a job interview today, I spent all day working out exactly what I was gonna say and I was really confident...

Until a half hour before the interview, then I became a nervous wreck and my answers were full of "Um"s and "Ah"s because I was so nervous I was having trouble thinking right.

Brentai · « **Reply #1314 on:** July 21, 2010, 12:51:23 AM »

Funny, I CONDUCTED a job interview today and did the same thing.

Didn't help that the guy I was interviewing had literally ten times my experience.

Did you get to tell him that you're sorry, but he's over-qualified?

Also the coolant leak may resolve itself with a $12 radiator hose replacement. Holding my breath and wearing new shoes. Still uncanny how the car explodes the day I deposit a pay-check that pushes me into financially secure town.

Getting off work after midnight and needing to be at school around ten-ish was a better idea when commuting took 20-30 minutes instead of well over an hour. In bed when I got home at 2:00, alarm set for 9:00, watched the clock tick upwards until after 3:00. Girlfriend comes home at 5:00 and wants to stay up talking about how sorry she is she woke me up. Just let me sleep! I have class AND work today!

I think it's a conspiracy to hold the poor man down. Used cars contain a chip that records your bank account information the first time you use a drive thru ATM, back-traces it to the companies you pay billls to, and whenever you start to save up money or pay off your bills, it intentionally fails.

Doom: For anyone with an old car which likes to cop attitude, I cannot recommend Purchasing a Haynes Manual hard enough. When I was bombing around in the west with my 1991 Mazda 626, I only conducted two repairs with it (which made the manual pay for itself) including changing the radiator fan-thingy and some other minor fluid changes. It's thirty dollars well-spent, even if you never end up conducting repairs yourself.

Yesterday, I dropped the girlfriend off at her place and got T-boned 10 yards from the door by a 17 year old girl who blew a stop sign. That same night my 18 year old brother got arrested for possession (and who knows what else... the cops kept his phone as evidence). Teenagers are the worst.
