My car fried today. I can repair it and be homeless because ican't pay my bills, or i can let it sit and eventually lose my job because walking ttwelve miles aday in the snow will not be doable for long.

I've honestly never been closer to just killing myself. I've done some shitty things in my life but ithink I must be getting someone else's bad karma here. I can't deal with this anymore.

Vaccinations in both arms. Three total.

The only one that doesn't hurt is the one not covered by Ontario Health. Related? :rofl1:

Seriously though. Ow. I requested the hurty shots in my left arm because I'm a righty, then I realized I need both arms today to package products for Pet Expo.

((((HUGS)))) I'm really sorry. :(

I'm not going to say everything's going to get better, or that it can happen to anyone, because that (probably) won't help. I've been their before,& I know how much it sucks. I've never met you in real life, but from your posts you seem like a really strong,& caring person.

If you ever need someone to talk to, you can PM me

No no no no no.

However bad things are there are ALWAYS ways to make it better. Always. Can you find someone to talk to about how you're feeling? Even online if needs be.

I'm pretty sure of you reach out then someone will help. Have you told work what has happened to your car? Can you car pool? Get a taxi? Buy a blooming bicycle!!

When you're already feeling down, your brain sometimes tricks you into thinking all is lost, but it isn't.

My co-worker can drive me a little crazy but I am so glad she is here sometimes. Everybody else left for lunch so I told her I was upset and feeling depressed and wanting to cry and she was just like "I'm sorry. I get it." No lecture. No trying to fix anything. Just a "sorry, I understand." Refreshing. And surprisingly helpful to just tell somebody "I was just sitting over there trying not to cry" and have them just say "I'm sorry."

We got t-boned tonight by a Harley! Poor Civic is going to need some extensive body damage (it's a 2014 wth :( ) but I guess we're just lucky the dude didn't come through our window or die or anything. Everyone walked away. His bike's pretty bent.

Oh, and it appears he's in an outlaw MC.

Super nice dude though... lol

Fixing your credit sucks!

Why don't highschools offer Intro to Personal Finance or something instead of some other crappy thing you'll actually never need?

I mean, I'm pretty darn good with money, but credit use was over my head until recently! And now I'm backed into a corner about it.

ARRRRRG.

Mine did! Although I'd forgotten just about everything they said in that class, I'd wager.

Sorry about your credit issues.

Weird! Maybe only certain areas offer it.

They aren't terrible or hard to fix. I imagine we'd probably go back to average/good credit within 2-3 months, but since we were looking to get our own place soon it does sorta set us back and is super disappointing.

I really just want my own place. It is just that one final stepping stone to everything else we've already done. And I want it NAO. /whinyadultrant.

OMG our neighbor is a freaking PSYCHO!!!!!

As you know this has been an ongoing issue for like 5 years at least. It's not rocket science. Turn your effing music down so it's not shaking my walls!!! For a while they were really good and they kept the music down. although I suspect the antagonist and the normal one in the house were broken up because she didn't seem to be around as much and things were NORMAL.

Then it started back up again. We talk to them and talk to them and talk to them about it but it never changes. She thinks that because it's before 10 at night that she can keep the music up as loud as she wants for hours and hours on end until then. I don't know what else to say lol. It's not rocket science.

Today she's been BLARING the music since before noon and just now at 7... I called the police because that's 8 HOURS of encroaching on our peace. Well the police left and she started banging on the walls and then went out side and was screaming all kinds of crazy obscenities and just... WOW. Like TOTAL Psychotic break down! Kind of scary actually

Do we have any kind of legal recourse?

I don't know but there is some asshole who works on the oil exchange place that sprung up about a 1/4 mile from us who I guess either gets off work or comes in at 2 am with his car stereo blaring so loud I can hear it in my room from 1/4 mile away!!! I have called the owners of the business and complained to them and told them that if it doesn't stop I will call the police.

**** ... things were to peaceful before all this oil crap and ****ing people came, now we have to lock our gate (on both sides so people can't pry it off the hinges).

So I feel your pain and I am sorry, I hope things look up soon. It's a shame they are like that because you seem like a great neighbor.

Was the rant aimed at you? I'd be documenting the psycho's activities as evidence, and keep calling the cops when she gets out of hand with the music so there's a record. Banging on the walls? Are you in an apartment or duplex? If there's a landlord, I'd be filing a complaint with them, too.

It is aimed at us. She's mad because we don't just put up with it all. We have tried to talk to her and she is just off the handle! She told me I was racist because I asked her to turn the music down so we could hear a movie. Just because it was Spanish music... My problem was obviously because it was Spanish and not beause it was so loud we couldn't hear our tv lol.

We live in a semi detached. We own so no landlord.

We get along with all of
Our neighbors and we are pretty mch all a united front with this. They have parties and smash beer bottles in the street, brawls in the front yard. It's nuts

Keep calling the cops, see if the neighbors will call, too, and if she goes psycho again, tape it with your phone and show that to the cops. If she's verbally threatening you and acting crazy enough to scare you, that could be considered assault.

We have been calling and neighbors have also been calling for a few years now. I think video and calls about her erratic behavior instead of noise and disturbence complaints are what is needed now!

Tape the loud parties, trash and fights, too, if you safely can. You could also try contacting local news stations; they usually have reporters who cover these kind of stories, especially if you're not getting any kind of satisfaction from law enforcement.
