Yesterday my wife brought the family car to the mechanic, since the engine didn't sound very healty since a week or so.
Today I had a phonecall from them, telling me that the engine gearbox if fucked up and needs to be replaced. A new one from VW costs 2.600 €, a replacement from an alternative manufactorer will still cost 1.300 €. Plus work hours and a new coupling this whole mess will set me back at least 2.000 € and this right before the new m65 and the Kersey Western will hit IHUK.
Fekking lousy timing, since we need the car more then another jacket and western shirt. Damn it. ::)

Hate when that happens. Brought my car in for a simple oil change,had an oil leak and $450 later it was fixed. Of course it was when IH was releasing tons of cool stuff.
Yep. I’ve missed many IH drops due to unforeseen circumstances like car repairs or medical bills for my son.

Lying in the most uncomfortable hotel bed ever listening to my roommate suck air through his face. I have to be on site for the first of 8, 12 hour shifts in 5 hours.

Ear plugs. Any sporting good store or walmart has em. Go cheap or get some that mold to your ears.
And sorry.

I got some earplugs from an audiologist. Highly recommended. Can grab some earphone plugs while you're at it as well. Godspeed!

Five days later and Vertigo still has me in its grasps. Started prednisone today. Hopefully but works. I’m improving but still dizzy and nauseous. Can’t drive or work. Doc thinks it should be gone by end of weekend. We’ll see. MRI on Friday to rule out anything.

Get well soon.
Also, I am too ocd for earplugs i have at least 6 different types. I dont like how they feel in my ears, the pressure. And I have tinnitus so there's a constant tape hiss. But most of the time i have my own room. But this time the hotel was full. Good night.

Thanks Everbody. It’s like being drunk when you dont intend or desire…and having the spins. But I think I’m
improving.@Filthy I hear you on the OCD, pressure and the tinnitus: I recomend wax ear plugs that you can mold. Like
The ones they sell at cvs. The font add much pressure. You kind of control how Hard you want to put them in. -
iPhone 8 screens are as slick as ice. My office mailbox is located on a marina on Lake Union in Seattle. This morning when grabbing the mail I pulled my phone out of my pocket and dropped it on the marina. Phone then proceeded to slide right into the lake…. Was able to fish it out with a net. Last time I don't buy Applecare.

I can't imagine how difficult it is to deal with vertigo. I heard the Brandt-Daroff Exercise is quite helpful.

Thanks @Omega Man I’ll take any recommendations. It is improving, but it’s a slow process. Thank you

Hey @Jett129 yes I saw an internist and an ENT doc yesterday. He thinks
Mine is do to an upper respiratory infection I had a few weeks back. The MRI Friday is to just make sure it’s nothing else. Doc seems confident so I am as well. Thanks man
