What's everyone up to right now?

Ah that sucks, sorry man

Yeah, no point beating yourself up over it. It's a strategy that I've used repeatedly and it achieves nothing!

Thanks man.
I feel better already just knowing that someone's heard my complaint. :-)

No problem

I've found life is full of things that can cause you to blow a gasket if you focus on them too much. Being a perfectionist, my instinct is to kick the crap out of myself for any mistake I make. I've tried to learn to accept that all I can do is learn from it and move on.

Life is so complex, we're forever juggling so many balls that sooner or later we're going to drop one. It's part of being a deliberately badly designed human

I just got done for no licence.
It's 2 weeks out, I had no idea.
It's gonna cost me $174 plus whatever the licence costs.
I'm so angry about it, I wish I could blame someone else.
I've been trying so hard to save.
Every little measure you put in place to save, this is like thousands of those little measures all for fucking nothing.
Oh well, move on, get over it.

That reminds me of this nice article:

I've been absent from posting due to last minute details and concerns with my upcoming trip to Japan. However, I think everything is set now. I'm going to leave you guys to it. Don't tear the place to pieces while I'm away. I'll return in June with some interesting stories as an atheist on a religious pilgrimage!

See all of you in a few months.

Take care my friend, hope you have a good time!

If there could be people in need of medical assistance, you should stop, at least to call an ambulance...

I thought I could renew my licence online.
Turns out you have to have the piece of paper and its code that they send you to remind you that your licence is about to expire which the fuckers didn't send me.
So I have to wait til Monday before I can go anywhere. I can walk but it's a bit much for my four year old daughter, especially in this heat.

The Department of Transport did this to me five years ago as well.
The didn't send me a registration renewal form, I was going through a messy breakup and oblivious.
The cop charged me for an unregistered vehicle.
As he was writing the ticket, I mentioned that I didn't do it on purpose as I had actually paid the insurance and it was up to date.
He said because I was unregistered my insurance would be void.
Then he decided to change the charge to unregistered and uninsured vehicle.
Cost me a day off work for court and a $990 fine.
Every year I buy a diary with the intention of writing stuff in it and checking things off as the due date comes round.
Every year I through out a blank diary from the year before.
Ok, I'm stopping now before this turns into an autobiography. ;-)
