It seems like every time I have to be somewhere important my truck fucks up!!! Today like a few fucking minutes ago from me typing this post I have an interview for a job. I get ready and everything and the moment I turn my keys it slowly goes "wwwoooorrrrt... wwwworrrrt..." then a fast "click! click! click! click!..."! This means that my battery is low. I have a really bad battery. Always leeks acid. It can?€™t keep its charge for very long. Yes, it has the right amount of water. I have made sure because I have to always recharge it! But right now I cannot jump it because I don?€™t have jumper cables and my neighbors are gone to their jobs so I am stuck! I have a stick and I could just pop the clutch but I can?€™t even get it to move. It?€™s a light small truck and easy to move on a flat ground but for some reason it won?€™t budge in this one spot. It?€™s strange because the ground looks flat with no bumps for it to go over but it just won?€™t go. What?€™s funny is that this seems to always happen when I have some kind of schedule or appointment! Now if I just needed to go and get some cigs or go over to a friends house the battery seems fine and it starts right up, no pushing involved! But because I have a job interview it won?€™t start! I wanted to take out that damn battery so badly and just fucking through it to the pavement as hard as I could! So I go inside to see if I can reschedule. They said they would have to call me back to give me a new time! Mother fucker!!!! I bet they will never call and have taken me off the list to be hired because now they think I don?€™t have reliable transportation! So this blows mother fucking balls!

And later I have to go with my mom to another state to see my grandmother. She is in an old folks home! I really don?€™t want to go because she has Alzheimer's and she doesn?€™t even know who I am. She is to the point where she has the mind of a 5 year old. I know this sounds horrible not wanting to see your grandmother. Its not that I don?€™t love her anymore or hate her its really because she doesn?€™t know me or any one else, and it is really sad for me just to see her in this condition! So this trip is going to suck!

Then something happened to the phone lines when this storm hit and knocked out the power, and I think it fucked up the phone lines in this area too. From that day forward, there has been a soft hum in the phone. So I am sitting here bitching on a 9600 bps connection waiting for jesus to come back to help me get one web page downloaded.<img src=smilies/angryfire.gif>

Get a new battery? Unless your alternator is shot as well that should fix it!

Ahh $$$ for cigs but running with a potentially dangerous leaking battery...ok....

Um...tell her you DON'T want to go? If you are old enough for a job interview, I'm pretty sure you can tell her how you feel.

The phone company MUST, I repeat MUST BY LAW help you if you can't connect any faster than 14.4kbps. So call them.

Well that sounds like your connection is loosing packets and becuase the default size of packets for windows is large and large packets get corrupted your modem compensates by using a slower and more stable connection speed. This program I'm linking you to will automatically select a more stable packet size and then you save and reboot, but since your connection is so slow I recommend you pick a smaller packet size than the *it's like 476 or something* default on easymtu will pick. I highly recommend you read the help instuctions with the program because they simple but very helpful unlike some programs.

Finally, this program WILL speed up your connection a lot, I had a 45,000bps connection and reached 53,333bps stable connection normally with this program which is outstanding with a 56K modem.

Two words: new battery.

Before granny kicked the bucket, she lived in a nursing home, too. I hated it there, not because of her health or anything, but because it smelled like urine and moth balls and I saw a NUDE OLD WOMAN wandering the halls. <img src=smilies/errrr.gif> I will never go to another nursing home as long as I live.
