noahgibbs: Me and my teddy bear at Karaoke after a day of RubyKaigi in HIroshima in 2017 (Default)

Yesterday, by rights, should have been really bad.

My motorcycle battery died, so I was in a massive rush to get home and scramble to Berkeley by 6:30.

Work still sucks. And I was late coming in.

On the way home, my car's "check engine" light came on, and I don't know what I'm going to do about repairing it while trying to get my bike dealt with.

But y'know, I just don't feel very attached to most of my day-to-day activities. It was about time to get the car serviced, I've just been lazy. The bike thing may keep my off my bike for a couple of days but that's about the worst of it. And work -- it sucks, sure, but then I care less.

I feel like sort of a weenie -- things haven't been really, really good for me for quite awhile, and things are never all that bad. I guess I'm just wishy-washy rather than melodramatic and angst-ridden. If they ever make a movie of my life, I'm seeing Kevin Spacey ala "American Beauty" as me. Or at least, as the current me. I don't know who would have played me-in-college. A young Christopher Walken, perhaps.

Eh, whatever. Back to work.

this happened with my truck - ford explorer. apparently, it's a sensor for emissions foo. the car won't blow up, you can drive it as normal. they probably have to check the intake stuff.

there, technical enough for ya? ;)

when the check engine light came on in my dodge shadow it was for some sensor in my gas tank that checked to make sure the levels of oxegen in there were correct. Isn't that weird? The things your car does that you don't even know about...but you still have to pay 150 bucks to fix.
