There's not a drat thing wrong with floor sex.  Holy poo poo, TheWorkNumber has so much poo poo on me.. so much of it is wrong, too. About the only thing that was correct was, surprisingly, what they had on me from Whole Foods (which also shows a voluntary separation). They have me listed as being fired from Papa John's (and only working for them for 3 months, not 13 years), when I quit. They show the wrong pay rate from PJ's, show the wrong hours per week, etc etc etc. They show me as working for UPS for 12 years (it was a few months), a week for some other employers (it was short term, but not THAT short term), and show a couple of random employers I've never worked for. It was a bit creepy that they had every paycheck I had from the Whole. Gonna have to call and dispute drat near everything they have on me aside from what's on there about the Whole. randomidiot fucked around with this message at 09:19 on Nov 8, 2017 |

Just before 6am and my daughter wakes me to say the cat is acting weird. Sure enough, he is in a lot of pain and can't pee and quite dopey. Cue digging out his documents and calling the vet while pulling on clothes and grabbing the cat box out. Then I had to refit my potentially dead battery in lightning time and prayed to any listening deity for it to work. Caught first time. Broke a bit of plastic putting it in. Entirely no fucks given. Got stuck in traffic on my way there and i just loving lost all remaining control and bawled my eyes out while driving and telling him he would be okay. He talked back. He's my buddy. Think I might have a speeding ticket on the way, if I haven't the camera was off or faulty. Emergency vet took him in and gave him some pain relief after a quick exam, they are going to try squeezing the piss out of him, and if that fails then x-ray/bloods/catheter. Been a few hours and no news is good news, waiting till tonight for a full update. House feels so loving empty without him around.

Solution for us was to feed both wet food once a day and access to dry food throughout the day.

Cats can get what is effectively bladder stones but more of a crystal "sand", it could be that.

VWvortex is the old one I used and there's some good stuff but it's buried and there's a lot of misinformation. Specifically looking for MK1 VW stuff for the '82 Caddy. Did figure out my non working wipers, hvac is likely due to the load reducer relay being toast. Nice I found that before I went through and started pulling tracing wires.

Crystals and stones are more common, but my cat has FLUTD caused by the proteins from the inside of his swollen bladder delaminating and clogging the urethra. We've been treating it with cartrophen (an anti-arthritis drug) and so far it seems to be helping. He does keep trying to pee outside the box, and it was super scary when he got blocked though. But there is hope

How do cats fare as garage buddies? Right now my fiance and I have two four month old kittens that I wouldn't dare let into the garage (because everything must be tasted, eaten, and thoroughly pounced upon right now) but I'm wondering if I'll eventually be able to trust the little buggers around garage stuff. Well, once we stop moving for work and settle into a house I'll have a chemicals cabinet I can lock--I don't have that right now so it's pretty dangerous for kitties.

My biggest worry would be spilled coolant or something like that. Cats have the world's worst kidney system, and antifreeze could probably really screw up a cat.

General_Failure posted:Oh they do here. Hell, where the Niva was concerned they also got me for bad U joints (barely visible play when grabbing and twisting on one, and the other tucked up above at the transmission output shaft was a bit stiff. Needed to replace them. Freeplay in the idler arm, steering box and a wheel bearing. Those were fixed by a slight tweak but still. C'mon. At least I didn't get into any arguments about freeplay in the seat backrests this year. I mean that's because I went to another place because of that reason. Y'all need to lighten up on that inspection poo poo. It's kind of hilarious that a nation that markets itself with the whole freewheeling, casual, shrimp-on-the-barbie attitude is completely militant about private/personal vehicle inspection. I understand keeping the vehicle safe enough to drive, but the key part of the phrase there is "enough". It doesn't have to be factory-perfect, and requiring such is a burden on lower-income folks, unless yuou want to provide a good, solid, efficient public transportation system. We'd have like 30% fewer cars on the road (legally) here in the US if they nixed cars with minor leaks. Probably more, actually. Seminal Flu posted:I'd never heard of TheWorkNumber before... looked it up... god drat, commercial Equifax. QFT, though it appears that one has to provide permission for employers to access it. I'm almost afraid to create an account and check my history with them. I'd never heard of them either.

Politicians don't need to use public transport, and upkeep of their (probably provided) vehicle is someone else's problem. e: I could have bought an extremely cheap 250cc quad this week. Would have been awesome, except there is literally nowhere it can be ridden. Boo

I'm procrastinating so hard on draining the Jeep's transmission oil so I can get rid of that ridiculous smashed lasagna cork gasket that someone put on it. I think it's because of two other problems that are staring me in the face with the XJ. It needs a new O2 sensor and a new rear wiper arm. Cheapest I've found on the O2 sensor so far is $117 and I'm not even sure about it being the right one. The rear wiper arm... I have no drat idea where to get one besides eBay US for around $100 inc. postage and a very long wait. I couldn't give a flying gently caress about the rear wiper, but I'm not the gummit

For the games that have been enhanced for it, they look and perform better even on 1080p, but they get positively gorgeous if you have a 4K, so they say. I'll probably limp along with an Xbox One S for a while. General_Failure posted:I'm procrastinating so hard on draining the Jeep's transmission oil so I can get rid of that ridiculous smashed lasagna cork gasket that someone put on it. I bet one of us could find you one in the wrecking yard for a whole lot less, unless most of that is the shipping, VAT, etc. You said Grand Cherokee, right? What year? On a note related to the above vidya gaems discussion, I just watched the trailer and noted that two of the cars available are a '55 Chevy Bel Air, and a '65 Chevy C10. And they can both be fitted for off-road. Might be interesting. Oh, hey, there's also a Buick GNX!

Think I'm about to end mine, I took delivery of a Daihatsu Rugger today and it's so awesome (I posted it in our Japanese Import thread) that I'm probably going to keep it and sell my 90 Acty. I also got an 83 Acty Street today as well but the Rugger, man, little turbo diesel clattery SUV thing really gets my goat. I'm actually out of space to store cars and I'm only one person and really can't justify keeping cars around just because I think they are cool, going to become some hosed up hoarder.
