Been trying to get my grandmother back into her home, but the AC is completely out. Had two different companies come and look today.

:) The first guy climbed in the attic and started digging around and was very thorough. After about half an hour he said the AC was the right size but the duct work was done wrong before and they would fix it and entirely replace the outside and inside AC Units for about 4 grand, including permits and everything.

:evil: The next guy refused to even thoroughly look around in the attic and said we needed a larger unit, including the furnace. It would run over 10 grand PLUS the cost of permits and what not. He refused to even consider a smaller unit and I felt he was upselling me the entire time.

I'm no expert, but I'm going with the first guy.

I hate when people posts ads for broken consoles I can easily repair along with rare games that drives the price up. Currently bidding on a certain console that happens to have a $25 game in it and 4 others including a $10 one so the price has shot up way more than what I can usually buy them dead for, but it's the only ad up. :?

I've been wanting this console for awhile now and the auction ends in 20 minutes.

I won!

:( After feeling really good this weekend and yesterday, I freaking crashed today, felt shitty and pissed off all day, and have blown up a couple times. (No major blowups, but enough to get the people I blew up on pissed at me.) Considering how good everything seemed to go this weekend, I think I would have been happy today, but that was not the case. I guess I read too much into a certain action, and hoped it meant more, yet pulled back and did my "nobody likes me" routine...

:) : Passed another DSST test, bringing me up to 15 credits in a 30 day period. This is so much better than doing actual classes with actual work.

Paul Mooney's health isn't looking too hot. I don't think he'll be with us for much longer. :(

Oh yeah I got back from visiting Austin over the weekend. Unfortunately didn't do much besides hang out with friends, drive around aimlessly, and eat at a few restaurants, but I still got a good feel for the place and REALLY liked it there.

Abilene feels 10x as dinky and boring now. Gotta hurry up and get moved...

LOL. That would be fun, but really I am at a factory that just lays off every summer. All my work is for Memorial Day. It has its ups and downs as every where does.
