Fiona Apple - Fast as You Can--- Sometimes I wonder whether this urger to dig in deep and spread tendrils out is a desire to eiminate the ability for anyone to know anything about me. I resonate, very clearly, with that Donald Glover quote: "Make it all for everybody, always. Everybody can't turn around and tell everybody, everybody already knows, I told them."
I find that I am greedy. I want everything, and I want all (pleasant and many not) experiences. But I also find myself wondering if greed, without selfishness, is really greed at all. What else would that be called?
Can someone tell me the downside to wanting new expeiences? (Social Distortion - [It Coulda Been Me]). To greed, I mean. I know that never being satisfied, never luxuriating in the Now, can be detrimental. But what if you know the good of the now, and can see the good of the next and more, and you want all of that? I want to work at these places, and that place. I want to put this convention together and build a class curriculum. Et Cetera.
What the hell is wrong with that? Where's the drawback? I ask, because I know there has to be one, and I don't know why I can't see it. Which means, to me, that it's exactly the thing I need to be investigating.
You don't know what I want, unless you do.

When you refill the coolant in your radiator, after draining, and after several overheating events, remember two things:
1) Express the air from your coolant system, in accordance with your Haynes or other automotive Manual. Otherwise there won't be enough pressure in the closed system to actually, you know, move coolant around.
2) However "topped off" you think your levels are, account for the amount of coolant lost in the process ov your car fucking overheating.
Thanks to Bob for noticing the "Expell Air" part of the Haynes notes.
Every time my car breaks and I fix it, I become more and more capable of fixing my car.
Yeah, I was worried, and yes I cut it down to the wire (got it done, at 5.45pm, just before I had to go to perimeter), but you know what? I fixed that shit.
Everything else, this week, is cake.
