When you're feeling stressed and every type of therapy and advice doesn't work, there is one solution: listen to your ass. Forget that egotistical brain and over emotional heart, the ass knows how to truly remain in relaxation. Besides, it's the only part of you that says: "Relax man, take it easy, alright? Let's just veg on the couch until the problem solves itself".

More of a random question than a thought. Have you ever closed the freezer portion of a refridgerator unit and then went to open the fridge part and there was this pressurization thing where you have to pull harder to open it than normal? I've experienced this on many units. What's the deal with that? Why would closing the freezer cause a vacuum in the other chamber? Does anybody here know? I'm stumped.

It really sucks being so pessimistic. I have to take my daughter to the Dr today and I cant shake the feeling its going to be something horrible.
There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far~ ruminations

I'm a father of two. I get what you're saying. Yes, it sucks, but mainly because your child is sick. In some ways I suspect it may be more of a thing where you're preparing yourself for the worst so you're more emotionally prepared for bad news. That's just a theory that makes sense to me. But yeah, any way you slice it still sucks. There's lots of stuff about being a parent that sucks, but I still wouldn't give it away for anything.

I must ask the question again, when did children's show host become so damn hot?  I didn't have that growing up. 

Google the name "Xuxa".

She was a children's show host in the 80s, in Brazil.


And yes, she does have naked pictures of her.

Livid right now: some idiot at my web hosting company suspended my account for going over a quota.  There are multiple idiocies involved here: no notice, just a suspension; their stated policy is to charge money for overages, not suspend accounts; and no one in customer service seems to know why the tech did what he did.  Idiot. 

Do not use premium hosting at DirectNIC.  I'll be changing my host as soon as possible.

Update: When I contacted them they could not explain what had happened and assured me they would contact me before taking action if a problem arose again.

This morning the problem apparently recurred and they permanently suspended my site.  Annoying, but understandable and within their rights---but---they also DELETED all my files off the server (I'm very bad at backing up regularly and am almost 2 months behind :bluesad:). 

When the tech told me that, I asked him if he thought it was legal to destroy my property without giving me a chance to retrieve it.  He hemmed and hawed and then said it was in the contract.  I asked him to quote me the section that authorized deletion and he couldn't do it.  Then I quoted him the relevant contract section, which of course says no such ridiculous thing.  He said he would try to get me the most recent backup.  We'll see.  Idiots.

I am beyond livid now.  NEVER USE DIRECTNIC!

So many people have told me lately that I shouldn't worry or be upset about the fact I'm in my early thirties and still single.  They say it'll happen at "the right time" or that love will find me when I "least expect it/stop looking for it."

Course, neatly enough, most of the people who've told me this are married, and NONE of the people who've told me this have been alone all their lives.

Sounds like it worked for them, then?

BTM: you have my sympathy, truly, but I have seen it work time and again.  There is more to it than just ignoring the 'issue'; and I think if we got into discussing it perhaps we'd have to venture through 'glass half full/glass half empty' territory.
