What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

[RyaNtheSlayA]

Smile: Bought some slotted/vented DBA rotors for my car on the cheap! Lightly used (only 25% wear on front and rear) and they were only $100!

Smile and Frown: Last night, while not in the most sober of states, I decided to order Darksiders 2 for my WiiU. I wanted to cancel it this morning but couldn't, but on the other hand, I've been wanting to try out the game for a while so oh well.

Frown: I have been incredibly moody lately. I've been doing pretty well when it comes to depression and anxiety for the last 6 months or so. The last few weeks have been back to the hell that I was feeling 3 years ago, which isn't good. I'd expect it's due to all the life changes and stress that comes with it on the horizon. I haven't been excersing lately either so that probably doesn't help but...

Smile: It was 80 degrees today. Should be quite a nice night for a run.

I'm getting really down again. Like, I'm scared. I have never been this depressed.

Have you ever specified what exactly it is that depresses you?

When I do on here people just go
"Stop trying to get attention, you aren't that depressed," or something, so not really on here.

Think I finally got my schedule fixed up. I'm able to play some video games, get enough sleep, work out for a bit, and still have time to spend with the family.

I have the worst luck with cars. My PT is overheating, and even though I can bike to work easily, it's not really an option if the weather sucks. It's done this before, and I think it's the radiator might be clogged. Calling a mechanic tomorrow. Really can't afford to have the car fixed AND my wisdom teeth pulled though. I hope it's not too expensive.

Got to fix a server that hosts Japanese porn. The problem was specifically serving certain content, so I got to reload the page several times to make sure it was working. Had it maximized on my second monitor.

My brain is seriously broken. I'm trying to figure out what happened in recent years to make me feel so stupid and block me from learning new information.

Smile: The fact Hobie smiled about his Great Aunt's Birthday made me smile. Our elders are a treasure.

Smile: Staying home today, and my wife will be meeting me for lunch and stuff. So besides the Cubs game at 8pm tonight, my day is basically wide open.

Frown: I had planned on playing two disc golf courses today, solo, as it's a great way to get out, think, and relax. But it is raining, and will be all day.

No biggie as I'll go out later and throw some rocks/toss some stones/go bowling. Not as cheap or therapeutic as disc golf, but it's only like a buck a game on campus.

jinx if you go to the auto parts store they havestuff so you can flush your own radiator it is pretty easy to do. If you have to go to a mechanic though
have them check the thermostat they stick from time to time as well as the hoses if there old and get worn they sometimes collapse shut during the cooling cycle. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the input. I'm terrible with cars, but learned my old Honda Accord in and out. When we got this PT Cruiser, I was completely lost again and didn't want to bother learning where everything was.

I figured there was something that would let me flush it on my own, but I hadn't done any research. I'll be sure to check it out as I know this seems to be a common issue with 2001 PT's. We brought it to a mechanic previously for the exact same problem. Luckily they didn't charge us, because all they did was open the cap and flush it out. Here we are a few months later with the same issue though.

Have you guys ever sought professional help? I can tell you from personal experience that it does seem weird talking to a total stranger at first, but once you get past that and really open up to them, it can be incredibly helpful just to have a sympathetic ear. And if you need medication, it might take a few tries to find the right one, but when you do, you'll feel a lot better most of the time. And if money is an issue, there are options for low-income patients. If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have been able to get help and I probably wouldn't be as clear-headed as I am.

"crappy professors crapping on students"

Meanwhile, I brought my students donuts and we talked about Roman poetry all day, ending with Wilfred Owen's "Dulce et Decorum Est".
