My day blew.
Well first of all, am truly sorry Nick.. I woke up at 2pm feeling sick to my stomach and really only recovered at 5 =S Tis no excuse, but it is what occured.
That wasn't today tho. Today was pretty cool at HS, and the first class of CCC was cool, but then I had an orthodontist app't, and on the way over my car was running warmly. As in, redline warmly. Whatever, my guages have lied to me before. The good news from that session? I don't have to get braces now in preperation for jaw surgery this summer.. and the jaw surgery isn't occuring then. The bad news? It's gonna have to happen eventually, and I might need a night guard (protective thingy for your teeth) so I don't clench my teeth hard, because I have such a severe underbite that clenching could cause irreperable damage. Oh joy.
Then, I go out to the car, and it has some issues starting. Get it to start, drive home. Halfway home, the until-then-moderate temp guage starts visibly moving up. By the time I get to the top of my hill, I can smell it. Then, I see the smoke. I drop the car into neutral and shut off the engine, and momentum barely gets me to the driveway. Shit. Pop the hood and I can hear the coolant boiling from 5ft away, and there's smoke/steam EVERYWHERE. After it cools down (5/10 mins) I realize leaving my car with 1k$ of sound equipment and all the windows rolled down in my driveway is a very bad idea. Turning on the car is also a no-go. So, I get to push my car to the garage. Right as I get to the lip of the garage, my mom yells at me to stop, then proceeds to tell me we need the mower out. So, I push that hulking peice of crap out, and then realize that my wonderful mom made me lose all my momentum for getting over the lip (which is around 1/4", not much unless you're pushing a 2000+ pound car) Eventually, I get the damn car in, go off to class. Return, and it turns out we didn't need the lawn mower after all.
Kill.
If you want to hear the episode about how dad and I drove my car (and the van) the 10m to our mechanic, seek me out. It's long and arduous. Also, it's 2am and I'm bloody tired.
I'm trying to get up the balls to do one thing, which if I was to do it would have to occur this week.. am nervous. Also am thinking about making a video of me annihilating foolz in WoW. But the first one is more important.
