In my first world problem world: Sold Red Pada Context. Buyer said Hall-mode made the craziest high pitched noise that was unbearable, and that he was mostly in it for that mode. So I told him I could either give him a partial refund of send him money for shipping back to me and of course a full refund. He chose the latter. I get it back and it works perfectly fine. User error or just someone who thought he'd like the pedal more than what he actually did? I don't know, but I ended up paying $40 to send my own pedal on a trip around Norway.

Thanks man . Honestly, it's nothing new but I needed to vent. It's something I've been dealing with since I was 14 but after a relentless decade it's a lot worse and it's worn me down in ways I couldn't have imagined.
Hope everything goes well for you too. Prac is stressful enough as it is without all that ish.

So I'm probably going to kicked out of university again because I can barely even start my fucking assignments because I'm so depressed and when I do it's like pulling teeth because I think everything I write sucks and feel the need to make endless pointless revisions. Oh and my anxiety is so bad it feels like I'm on the edge of throwing up constantly. It's not like I'm actually stupid, It'd be easy enough to accept it if I was but it wasn't always this bad and when I do hand stuff in I'm a distinction average student but I'm really stuck in a rut. I can't study, I sure as fuck can't work so what the hell am I going to do with myself for the next half year? If I was actually making progress with my problems I could probably swallow it but my meds aren't doing shit and I'm changing therapist again pretty soon. Funnily enough I'm actually not that suicidal which is fairly rare even when I think I'm doing "well". I'm just fucking angry and bone tired of putting up with my brains stupid bullshit. I don't even need to be happy, I would settle for just being a functional member of society. Like, being able to work and be self-sufficient or leave the house when friends invite me somewhere or be in a relationship or lose some fucking weight or stop have horrible dreams of crushing my own head in a bench vice and have blood and brains spew from the split where my face was. It's so retarded but sometimes I really do feel resentment towards my parents for giving life to such a clusterfuck or having people in my life that would actually care if I killed myself. I ain't worth crying over but they don't seem to see that. I don't know what they see in me at all.
Blleeehhhhhhhhhhhhh. Fuck all the stuffs.
Hang in there man. People care about you because obviously you are worth it. I hear what you say about having a tough time seeing that for yourself, but sometimes if you take a moment and just go on the assumption that it is a legitimate thought and see where considering that takes you, it can help.

I figured it was a tube related problem too, but when googling "AC30 humming noise" I got like 15 different idea's to what may be wrong with it besides the tubes. I've only had it for 1,5 years and it's not been used all too often actually, so I'm not sure it's the tubes at all, really. I'm so technically impaired, I guess I'm just going to have to send it in.
doctor appointment on Monday. i'm petrified of doctors and hospitals since i was sick so much when i was a kid. but the psychiatrist wants me to have a family doctor. so i got it together and made an appointment.

FIFTY YEARS OF SCARING THE CHILDREN 1970-2020--and i'm not done yet
Trying to get my teenaged dog to finish a bounce back from a heavy duty health shitstorm. He's not critical at this point, but he's not yet to the point he can come home. And we're getting worried about whether that can happen.
Update: he is coming home. Hope he'll be able to stay--next couple of days will tell if he's really turned the corner.

Old dogs are the best dogs.
Old dog is a cantankerous little shit sometimes, but he's being very sweet for a cranky old guy since he's come home. He is cruising on years of built up goodwill, though--most of his life he's been that once-in-a-lifetime dog.
He seems like he's where he needs to be and he's got a bunch of his pep back. Fingers crossed that he keeps being cantankerous a few more years.
