The 'What happened to you today' thread

[JVElEven]

I got taught sex ed by a german with an accent so thick I didn't understand anything of it. Always the same teacher. For 8 years.

[ZeRoc]

In my school we had very little sex ed and it mostly consisted of "don't do it," but I went to a Catholic school and they don't believe in sex before marriage. So it goes.

Utah nearly passed a bill that made health classes (the closest equivalent to sex ed) have to preach abstinence, not that I'd have a problem with this mind you, but I don't think that they said the word "condom" once in the entire semester.

So today, even though it's only 4:37, I've gone through 2 depression attacks (Is that the proper term for it? And they were both atleast partially girl related.), retook a math test and hopefully did better on it, and I will now do homework for several hours hoping to salvage my grade in my Algebra class. yay...

Sex Ed: This almost deserves it's own thread. What a popular topic!

[JVElEven]

Wow, ZeRoc, you've had a pretty bad day, huh?

The only thing I've done today is locating my old copy of Spore. It's actually fun again now

[Jeff]

I got more done today, than I did the last three weeks... (keep in mind, I had to hang out on-call, as a mission was supposed to start 25 April)... ((no indication that I am the world champion procrastinator))... (((I actually had to verify that it wasn't happening today))).

I gave my Harley away.
I registered my Jeep.
I got it state inspected.
I got it serviced.
I emptied out the storage.

I was actually suprised I was able to get it all done today, as things just clicked. No lines, and very little waiting. In and out.

YOU GAVE A HARLEY AWAY?!

[Avron the S'wit]

YOU GAVE A HARLEY AWAY?!

This is my thoughts exactly. Why wasn't it to your favorite daughter?

[Jeff]

Yup. The guy was actually cool about it. He offered to get it running, and let me ride it whenever I am home (which is very little). I was actualy glad I gave it to him. It was a 1991 Electra-Glide. I mainly just needed the carb cleaned up, the fuel and oil tanks drained and flushed, and a new battery. I have not rode it in about 4 years, and I didnt want to get it running, just to let it sit and not run again.

I have actually been throwing a lot of stuff out the last three weeks. I took at least one load out a day to the trash. I don't want to have that much if/when I move again. If I can't load it up in my Jeep, then I don't need it. I do have a trailer full of equipment, but not much can fit in that, as I it is mostly full already.

@ My (only) Daughter: Would you have come and picked it up?

[the Savage Hippie]

But but but... isn't a Harley quite valuable?

Also, Avron, I thought you wanted to get a Velo

[leroybrown]

I registered my Jeep.
I got it state inspected.

What is a state inspection? Is this like emission testing or whatever?

[ZeRoc]

Wow, ZeRoc, you've had a pretty bad day, huh?

Yup, overall I don't know why I got so down about stuff, my mind just kicked into depression overdrive while I was walking home. It started analyzing every little thing I've said to my friend-girl in the past 2 years, everything she said back, scanned it all for any sign of disliking me, and naturally, it found some. I started crying at every little signal that she was sick of me being around, whether it was probably intentional or not, it even got to the point when I was about half way home where I didn't believe it when she said that I was a good friend to her. In addition, today I have to scramble to make up most of my math class homework, and I don't remember any of what I've learned in class this semester because I was to busy fussing over Prom, my play, and her, this term to pay attention.

In short, would someone please pass the anti-depressant and all the Mountain Dew that I'll need to stay awake for all of my homework?

[Avron the S'wit]

@ My (only) Daughter: Would you have come and picked it up?

YES. In my dreams!

Also, Avron, I thought you wanted to get a Velo

I want anything with wheels.

[Jeff]

Safety Inspection: Lights, breaks, exaust, ect... In Texas, if it's not safe, then you can't drive it (legaly).

[the Savage Hippie]

@Avron:
Okay, then I want to imagine you driving to work on this:

Spoiler:

[Deandra]

"4 Girlz"?? Kill it! With fire!

[the Savage Hippie]

It is what's hip these days, Deandra, deal with it.
4 Girlz is as of now, my new moniker. You can call me that if you like.
A Hippie's gotta be hip y'know.

I forgot to write about it yesterday but yesterday on my way home I both times needed to call the cops but couldn't on account of my cell phone being dead.

First was some crazy young woman on the phone, but that wasn't the issue. It's still an issue in Washington state but the fact was she had a young baby in the car with her. The baby wasn't strapped in a car seat but rather in one of those baby carriers that you carry with your hand facing away from the driver to the back seat and on top of that, I saw no seat belt. And the betch was coming off of the highway.

Second was because some crazy lady decided to litterly throw stones at a person's house. I marked which house it was with my vision and knocked on the door and told the owner.

[Deandra]

I'm confused. All of the baby carriers I've seen like you're describing are also car seats that are meant to be used like you say, facing the back. In fact you're not allowed to put your baby in a regular car seat until they're a year old.

[unokitsune]

Few years ago when my sister was living here they somehow found an infant carrier which was like a cross between a car child seat and one of those carriers. i'm not sure what was used 10 or 20 years ago but I saw no seatbelt.

[AddictedtoMorrowind]

Everyone in the band in my school district played together, shortly.

[Deandra]

With the usual setup, the seat belt goes pretty much under the carrier, so you probably wouldn't be able to see it from outside the car.

[Frost Mage]

Today my doctor called me erotic. Wait, I think there was supposed to be an 'n' in there somewhere...

[Dark Lord Cam]

Neurotic*

[Frost Mage]

Cam murders jokes violently, and without rhyme or reason.

[Avron the S'wit]

Naturally. Who wants to murder with rhymes? That's just silly.

Anyhow, really now. Get back to diary writing here, UESP.
