New Year's Resolutions!

My car is now fixed although i think I have a blown head gasket, hard to say at this point. The good news is I found a good mechanic who likes to help me out for free for some reason. He told me if you have a blown head gasket when you take off the cap for the oil there will be a ton of milky white substance under the cap. That wasn't entirely the case when I had the blowby can set up, but he told me to remove it two weeks ago (which I did) and I just checked today and yes there is much much more of this substance under the cap. I'll probably have to take it in to him and see what he thinks. Seems like the best mechanics are always in the ghetto. Crazy nice guy, too, nice really. He's already helped me save about a thousand dollars. Back on the fishmox (don't ask why). I don't know what I would do without these vet meds. There really is nothing more satisfying than prescribing yourself medication. I am taking Organic Chemistry and Human Anatomy this quarter and next and the spring quarter will wrap up June 15th or so. I could hear back from schools as early as next month for interviews but some schools interview as late as April. So if rejected I won't know that I am 100% rejected until May. So I have to take these two classes for both quarters. Just thought I'd give a life update as it seems that everything seems to be working out pretty well. Cheers and happy holidays readers. This was a good post. I am sensing that I am getting much more serious and no longer see a need to attempt humor in every sentence I write. This may or may not indicate progress toward acceptable levels of maturity.

Best of luck to you with the schools and interviewing process. That is if you survive that long taking those self prescribed meds. By the way, I tried to get a pen mark off from the dash inside my car using 409, and it did not work. You said it gets anything and everything off.

Thanks. I don't think I would have said anything about 409 because I haven't ever really used it. I may have mentioned simple green, but I don't know if that removes everything, its just amazing at removing oil and fats and other such grime, I don't know about pen marks. Maybe try it. It's nontoxic and environmentally safe! (that's what the label says at least).
