A BP swapped Festiva is too cool for Douchenburg. Dad has to have open heart surgery. I might be freaking out a bit.

InitialDave posted:I can't see a Festiva and not think of a Kia Pride. I mean, they were pretty terrible, and I don't understand how the US versions can be much of an improvement. Is the love of them just down to the US not getting all the really good small 80s cars that everyone else had? Yeah, our small car selection sucks. InitialDave posted:He's considered a good enough prospect for them to want to do it, so chin up, dude. Surgeons are arrogant bastards and they do not like losing, if they've decided they want to go ahead, he's likely going to be ok. This is what he tells me. I'm still worried.

Wife is at 32 weeks pregnant and her water broke last night while we were away from home (~2 hours away) for Labor Day weekend. She's not in labor and all is well so far thankfully. They hope to keep the baby in there as long as possible, up to 2 weeks if they can. At 34 weeks they'll induce labor but won't stop it from coming if it starts in the meantime. They want us to stay here for 2 weeks and say that it isn't safe to transfer to a hospital closer to home. fuuuuuuuuuuck

Oh gently caress. Once the water breaks the clock starts moving hard. 34 weeks is almost close to being okayish so hopefully you guys will do all right. The hospital is unfortunately kinda right, things could be ok but they could get bad really fast and they'll need to constantly monitor your wife and the baby.

Rent a garage. In the economy we're moving into, owning a house is a curse. You will almost certainly need to move for job reasons at least once in the next 30 years.

Ugh. Just spent some time in the garage replacing an air hose. I swear I'm losing any ability to work in the heat because nothing about this was strenuous or even mildly hard. Yet I came back in fully soaked in sweat. Ambient is just under 90, but the garage is probably at least 100 from heat soak.

Yeah, it felt a bit muggy yesterday morning when I got started working on the CR-V. Same deal there, nothing hard (plugs, oil, filters, rotate the tires and inspect the brakes) and it kicked my rear end too. It also feels like the >105 highs are hanging on later in the year than usual.

Don't sweat too much about the early bit, just keep your wife supplied with entertainment and make sure the house is 100% ready for when she gets hone.

Thanks for the kind words, folks.cakesmith handyman posted:Perfectly understandable. Good luck. We had the baby shower just a couple weeks ago and don't have poo poo prepared at the house yet, lol. Still need to buy a crib and/or pack and play but the kid isn't leaving here for awhile anyway. We were taken by complete surprise, we weren't even supposed to have the child birth class until next weekend. Definitely feeling unprepared.

So we had a big storm roll through last night, Thunder, hail, rain, wind the works. Any more rain and they're going to do a live cross from Houston... And its amazing what blows into your yard during a big storm. Like this that i found beside my front door.  We'd seen her hanging around the last few nights so set the cat trap with kibble and this morning she was in there. I had work, and the missus was off for the day so it was "Go take the new kitty to the vets to check for a micro chip and take it to the shelter. Then around 9am I get the call of "The vets said to hold onto her locally for a week and put up some Found Kitteh posters in case its someones lost kitten, so its set up in the bathroom. And we have to keep our two cats away from it in case its got FIV or ring worm or parasites. Oh, and its about 5-6 months old, intact female and doesnt APPEAR to be pregnant" Get home from work and this is what greets me...     Im reasonably sure Im now the dubiously proud owner of 3 cats...

Congrats, that is a gorgeous kitty. One of the local car idiots that seems to plague every enthusiast gathering crashed a bike on the interstate last night. From what I understand it was his 5th or 6th time riding. http://wane.com/2017/09/03/1-hurt-after-motorcycle-crash-on-i-69/

Quick question for a friend, admin fees on used cars legit or no? "2014 subaru impreza 13,999 miles is asking 15,999 + 3% tax + admin fee at 589 + 102 non tax fees"

Bulk Vanderhuge posted:Quick question for a friend, admin fees on used cars legit or no? Admin fee = fee for filling out and filing paperwork. Everything is negotiable, the last car I bought it was $489. It's pretty common, though $589 seems high.

So last night I was wrapping up some maintenance on the Lexus, buncha fluid changes and while it was up on jackstands i decided to rotate the tires. On the very last loving lug nut the stud decided to strip out of the hub so now I have a spinning lug nut and cannot get the wheel off. I was ready to put it on the ground and call it a successful day god dammit, now I'm dealing with trying to break this thing loose on a day I was planning on doing nothing  Yay cars.

Bulk Vanderhuge posted:Quick question for a friend, admin fees on used cars legit or no? It's all part of the pathological inability of dealerships to talk in terms of total cost for a sale. The implication is that the $589 is subject to the 3% tax, and the $102 isn't. But $15,999 gets more people in the door than $17,188 does.

Unfortunalty last year we had 43C AND 90%. gently caress. that. poo poo. gently caress that with a bargepole in every possible way. Last summer was indescribably awful in whole new ways - Phoenix heat with Florida humidity. We've had average temps this winter but with a twist - while the overall average is about spot on, the nights have been colder but no real cold day times to bring the average up... but we've also had gently caress all rain and low humidity. Hopefulyl some rain coming otherwise this is goign to be one hell of a bad fire season
