Are You have Bad Luck?
 
Edit: Just like that. Bad luck. I went back to change a word in the title and forgot to proof read, could be bad luck, could be because I'm frustrated.

I've been working on the car all week, dealing with the brakes, differential fluid, transmission fluid, steering cooler, shorter end-links, repairing my air-dam, and fixing the chinspoiler from where cones have pulled it loose. After all the little crap that has happened to me, I start thinking that I must be unlucky for nothing to go smoothly. I really can't imagine all this crap to happen to the average person. I could write a short story about how miserable my week as been with the car. Even things not car related, like school. One semester I was deleted from the sytem. I started showing up for the classes one semester that I thought I was signed up for, I was on no ones roll sheet. I go to my advisor, and she doesn't even have me as signed up for any hours, like I was going to skip that semester. I had to find classes to get in and ended up in nothing I needed.

That being said, I think a lot of things that are considered lucky or un-lucky are brought upon us by our own actions. I think back a lot of times and think that I could have prevented something bad from happening to me by simply thinking it through and planning better. So some people are cursed by bad luck because they are dumb.

When it comes to bad luck I always say "When it rains, its pours."

It always seems like it everything bad happens at once.

Anyway, I'm sure you'll get your car to where you want it.

Hmm, look in your engine, how many cylinders are in there?

I'm probably missing one, or I'd take a perfectly good engine apart and screw it up with my luck.

that was me a few weeks ago

to list a few my power supply to my laptop broke, only got 3 of 4 springs when i ordered them, figured out that in 04 the did away with the fuel test port on the fuel rail for my nitrous so i had to buy an adapter, both my window switch and nitrous solenoid was bad on arrival, bank fraud, among other things.

This is me this week! Worst fucking week I've had all year. I hate my life right now.

Yeah thinking things through and planning will always provide with a better outcome lol.

When it comes to projects on working on cars, there are always going to be bumps in the road that you don't plan on, but thats half the fun lol. Never goes as smoothly or quickly as you plan. Wouldn't call it bad luck.

I've always started to have bad luck when my mother passed away in my arms, ever since then it seems like things only get worse. Something good happens doesn't last long or anything. I noticed that when someone says "it will get better" and what not, it actually got worse within minutes.

I'm sorry that you're having a bad week and hopefully it will change soon. I wish I would have stayed in school, but I fucked up. I try to think of other people who have it worse and it makes me feel better. That's how I got better at skating and bmxing that is.

I was also having maijor problems with my car from Christmas to just the other day, that I finally fixed it and spent all this pointless money I didn't have to spend on it, but it took about three or four months just to fix my problem. Now I have two more problems, but that's not as bad as what I had.

Edit: Yeah I was confused with the topic, but people make errors and mistakes, if you look at me I do it a lot. I type really fast and half the time I don't exactly think what I'm saying. I was going to add that I've been having bad luck lately as well. I can't even eat and it's freaking bugging me. :(

Well just want to thank everyone for making me feel better. Even though my husband is still deployed and I working at a job I hate things aren't that bad. My husband is coming home to me soon, I am starting a new job in an ER next month, my kids both got straight A's, my bills are paid and my dog loves me.

Ryan, do you need me to kill someone? If so, give me a little time. I've got to pick out the right gun to use. :p:)

I thought you moved to a new job? Or has that not happened yet?

Edit: Reading Pwns me in the morning, sorry. You got somethings to look forward to then.

yeah this has been my last 3 months, seemed very unluck and "when it rains, it pours" was pretty much how it has felt. lost my grandfather on the 18th of December, then 3 months to the day lost my grandmother to a cance she didnt know she had till 3 weeks after my grandpaw past...and yes they were married.

Oh yeah I'm at my new job and it's not at all what I was led to believe, my shifts are jacked and I'm working way more weekends than I was told. And I've pretty much been fed to the wolves. I had a problem with a certain employee when I first started and she ended up getting fired. Apparently, everyone has assumed that it was my fault and even though they all talked shit about her, now she was the golden child and I am evil old woman who got her fired. Reality...had nothing to do with it.

Solution....I got a new job in an ER that is closer to home. YEAH
