      Wait, who is in Fairfax, VA? All I'm aware of government-wise is the CIA being in Langley, VA. Is that what you mean?

      I got a new (used) car. That's kind of a rave I guess, but I really didn't want to get it. I did want to get a newer car soon, but I was thinking like another year or two from now.

      But ah well, I got 160,000 miles and 8 years out of my first car (was hoping for 200,000 and 10 years). Based on the condition of the car and what I think the problem is, I don't think it's worth fixing. Plus the time that would take would've just has me out of a car for even longer. Luckily I could get a ride to/from work, but not to the store/gym, or anywhere else really. So I caved and found a Subaru in manual. One day I guess I'll have to drive automatic. My choices were pretty limited. I wanted manual, all wheel drive, and under 70,000 miles. Within a 40 mile radius of me, I think there were about 5 cars that fit the bill and were within my price range. Granted I was a bit rushed and didn't do extensive searching, but in the end I'm happy with what I got and at least I can plow through the snow now.

      Still have to decide what to do with my first car. Regardless it needs to be towed. So yea, got a new car but overall the whole situation is just a big bummer. Yea, yea, I'm being an ungrateful bastard.

      You might want to look into a yearly Fluid Film coating if you don't already do so, sefalik. It's supposed to prevent rust from forming. I haven't used it over a winter though.

      As for me, the Suburban finally (as of some days ago by now) has its roof rack removed for higher fuel mileage. Whee. It does appear to work on the highway.

      497 is insane! The highest I've seen is 320, same with my dad who's been a doctor for 40 years or something.
      Did she get HbA1c done too? The proper blood test, not finger prick?
      A lot of people don't wash their hands before doing the finger prick, so sugar on the hands can give an abnormally high reading.

      It's quite dangerous, your blood gets super thick and can cause strokes etc. but no need to be hospitalised, just give insulin.

      Cortana is useless! I wouldn't even mind giving up my location etc. if these Siri/Cortana/OK Google things were actually useful. But they're completely useless atm.
      Windows 10 can definitely go die in a fire. I filled my SSD up so that Windows couldn't update. Solved it once and for all, I just do security updates
      Although I made the mistake of letting the anniversary update go through coz I was sick of seeing "windows can't update" messages.

      Auto detailing's coming out nicely. Clay barring the trunk lid's taking a while though with all of (what I'm guessing is) bike tire rubber embedded in the finish. We were strapping a Terra Trike to the trunk for a while which I initially didn't think anything against since the finish was already dinged up but I'm also wondering how many more dings we put on the finish by doing this.

      Oh and the titles for three vehicles are being transferred to my parents and I. We're selling the Ford truck though, maybe the engine can be brought back to life without much effort. It last ran in 2007 and the last time I tried to do anything to it, it wasn't getting a spark. Whether mice chewed on lines or the timing belt/chain broke I don't know.

      Had my 'new' car for not even a full month... and a doe ran into me this morning on my way to work. There were two, and I thought for sure I was going to hit the first one head-on, but luckily I stopped quickly enough. However the second deer didn't stop so quickly, and she ran straight into the side of the car. Left a nice dent in both of the passenger side doors. See, nice things and me just don't mix.

      Hm, maybe try pulling it out with a block of wood and glue. Not kidding, it may not be perfect but I did that on a Caravan after Dad pointed it out. I think we used hot glue on the wood then let it bond to the not waxed finish then once it was stable we pulled the dent out and after that simply heated the glue again and the wood came right off. Or you could just take the door panels off and work from there. If done too hastily though I imagine it may be stressful but maybe not. I tried putting a new window track in my Suburban and that didn't go so well when I was rushing it too much, ugh. I didn't break anything except for overheating my brain, so to speak.

      On my end I just helped clear out part of Pap's estate. The 1960s Pontiac that Pap stored away which my Uncle is getting does have mold on the interior, I looked at it but it's nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be though it still needs the entire interior removed. A mouse was chewing on part of the vinyl top too.

      I can't say I've had the same experience with Deer as you have. I came close a few times though and my parents have at least hit one each; one in a 97 Voyager which damaged a headlight and one in the other Caravan which also damaged a headlight.

      Wow I haven't been on dreamviews for ages, I hope everyone is doing okay.

      So many things have changed since I graduated from high school. Like a couple of months ago, I was scared of walking in public by myself due to my social anxiety. But now I have to take the train daily, and then walk for about 15 minutes through the centre of Antwerp to get to my University. And on top of that, my University has 20,000 students, so I'm actually kind of proud of myself for overcoming my anxiety. I'm currently studying Linguistics and Literature (French - English). All my classes are great, except I think I may have underestimated French Literature a bit. But it's really stressful and I'm constantly worrying about failing. Because if I do fail, I have no idea what to do with my life?

      Also it has been 4 months since my girlfriend broke up with me, and I still miss her so much. She's currently dating someone else and I don't know, it just hurts to see her with someone else.
      But I've been talking to this other girl online for like two months now. And apparently she has feelings for me. I like her as well but I keep comparing her to my ex girlfriend, which isn't right but I can't help it. She wants to meet up with me at uni this week, but I'm so scared? I'm scared to have my heart broken again. And I feel like I'm not good enough for her. She has accomplished so many things in her life. Like she even published her own book. And I'm just nothing special so my head is just a mess.

      And you all probably remember I struggled with my infection for over a year? Well it's sorta fixed now. I went to see a different doctor at the hospital, and she told me to stop drinking soda because it can cause pain during urination. So I've been drinking mainly water and apple juice for the past month now, and I haven't really experienced any type of pain.

      One more rant, I'm still struggling with my depression. I've been feeling really bad lately, I even did some stupid shit. And I don't know what's causing this. I think it's everything together really. Missing my ex girlfriend, the stress of university and meeting someone else, and the loneliness. And I just don't know how to get out of this depression. It seems that no matter what I do, it always comes back to haunt me.

      You can start by getting a life! :
      Jogging, Running, Go to "Velo" and rent a bicycle! Google some of the bike paths or hiking trails in Flanders...Then just do it! Most of your ailments will disappear, (No girl wants a sicky)
      Then come back in two weeks and explain to us how you managed to fuck up meeting just the right girl or companions in such a marvelous city

      Suggestion: think/do something happy/happily. It doesn't have to be huge, just something small.

      Rave: I had a nice conversation with an artist who I met in a rather random place via a computer game that few seem to remember. The conversation was mostly about music or rather, bands which was nice.

      I'm also still clay-barring the Chevy. The car's just sitting in the garage for now as I don't want it getting rain on it or sunlight since now there's no wax on it. This is taking a while but it may have not seen a clay bar for a long time so I expected it.

      All this clay-barring the teeny specks of dirt out of the trunk lid's making me into a better drawing person with more patience. Well OK, it's not just that; I'm also reading books called "The Power of Now" and "The Happiness Advantage" and I just plain feel not only motivated but as though I'm actually involved with what I'm up to. Mom also got a car from Pap's estate so I'll be working on changing the fluids and filters in it soon too, once they arrive. Still haven't bought the Fluid Film but I better before winter, these winters in Pennsylvania are NOT easy on cars without protection.

      If you think winters are rough on cars in PA. Come up the road a piece to NY.
      Rant: I have a car falling apart after 3 years of driving on Hwy 219 just north of Bradford.. I have more rust than automobile, The muffler fell off and I have replaced 2 windshields from overloaded dump trucks throwing rocks and broken concrete from the pavement..And that's in just three miles of road, I do believe it's the worst piece of US.Highway I have ever seen...

      I'm a Pennsylvanian myself. I can attest to extremely over-salted roads. Some storms, I think we got more salt than snow. But I never had much issue with rust myself. My dad's 2008(?) Silverado is too rusted to pass inspection. I like it up in Vermont the times I've been up there. They basically just plowed enough so that you could tell where the road was.

      Just dreamed I sprayed Fluid Film on people and they died. The heck? One of them was Gomer Pyle, regrettably. The thing is they turned into the Fluid Film. Maybe the meaning's not literal but it did bum me out when I was dreaming; then again I get the feeling it's not to be taken quite as literally as that. I can imagine it saying it's putting rust repair shops out of work so maybe that's the point?

      Still clay barring the car. Got a considerable number of tough spots off the trunk this time. Also for the Suburban; got the roof rack screw holes dried, lubed, put bolts in and degreased around them and put silicone around everything while probably overdoing it on some of them. People may say it looks ridiculous as some of it looks like Hershey's Kisses on top but I haven't trimmed those "wizard cap" parts off yet. At least the roof's not going to be leaky, some of the inserts were mangled from when I "wrestled" to get the screws out as the bolts were rusted in hard.

      Why can't I ever fuckin get ahead? It seems like any time that things are looking up the universe throws me as many obstacles as possible, and not ones that can be powered through. Finally I have a job that I'm good at, delievery driving. And my power steering pressure hose blows wide open and leaks every last drop onto my exhaust pipe. Hoping I can replace it before the pump seizes or I'm REALLY fucked

      It could be worse!
      I blew a transmission cooling line which sprayed onto the cherry red manifold of a 454 and burned a motor-home to a pile of cinders along I_86..

      A woman could cut off your penis while you're sleeping and toss it out the window of a moving car.

      Lol, not sure what that means. It's from Fight Club. My penis is still in tact, although I get laid the same amount as I would if it was cut off.

      I swear I posted this already. Did DV have a rollback again? This was still somehow in my "restore saved content" thing.
      And there hasn't been a rant for days, which is very unusual for us complainers!

      I'm being an idiot today; the Lincoln grease gun didn't work. First I pushed the handle in and it wasn't holding a seal and then grease got behind the seal. That's NOT supposed to happen, I then pulled the T handle end off and all the grease was BEHIND the seal. So what did I do? Got pissed like numbskulls do and put the handle back on then pulled the handle out and got grease all over the floor and me, wasting a $8 tube of grease. The heck is it with Lincoln that the seal broke only after one use? It's not like it's a $5 gun either, I paid $40 or more for this thing. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I put a grease tube in backwards the first time like an idiot though.

      Tl/Dr; I was being stupid and I knew it. The hell am I trying to do here, be a baby on purpose subconsciously? Listening to Minutemen songs now as I wind down from my inanity. Grah.
