The FML thread (F*** My Life)

I'm normally a positive person. Recently, however, I've been experiencing a streak of bad luck that just makes me say FML (Foxtrot Mike Lima).

Today, I went to the self-serve car wash to give the Mighty Dodge a final bath before listing it for sale. I wanted to go to the $$$ national chain big rig truck wash where they have professional staff and harsh professional-grade chemicals that work, but my DW vetoed that idea and we instead went to the self-serve place with it's consumer-grade wimpy chemicals and she volunteered to do most of the washing.

As I was spraying the high pressure soap onto the roof with the wand over my head at the self-serve wash, the hose partially split at the wand's input fitting and soaked me with soapy recycled water before I could throw it onto the ground. I wound up having to use $3.00 of quarters in the next bay to run that wash in spot-free rinse mode to wash the soapy mess off of ME (because it probably has the best filters for the recycled wash water), and now the Mighty Dodge smells like a wet dog inside from the drive home in drenched clothes.

Feel free to add your own FML moment.....

2015 was my FML...........months?

In a span of 3 months, the ex-wife asked for a divorce (I purposefully let her keep the house more on that in a sec, I did make her buy me out of some of the equity and renovations we had done the year before), moving out meant I had to give up my new puppy since most places won't rent to someone with a pit bull.........except in neighborhoods I was absolutely not going to live.

1 week after the divorce was finalized, I was caught up in a layoff at work with about 25 other sales/engineering/admin people. Got a contract job and then was laid off from that after 5 months, after them telling it was funded for 18 months.

So to recap, in a span of 9 months lost my wife, dog, house, and two jobs, and ended up moving in with my best friend and college roommate so we could both save money as he got divorced the year before me.

Then, I got a good gig, if a bit underpaid (but when you're desperate and unemployment doesn't even replace 40% of your salary, you take what you) at Ramsey Winch. Then finally landed the gig at Oracle | NetSuite about 18 months from the ex asking for the divorce.

There's a country music song in there somewhere.

I’ve been fortunate. I have had blips of bad things through my life but few and far between. Then came 2020. I have had so many FML moments for two years. I lost my 2 best friends, my rocks; my dad passed and I lost my SO of 10 years by betrayal and was completely blindsided. One would be bad, but I would have the other. Both at the same time almost broke me. My 16 year old niece was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma at the same time and we were going into lockdown. Then mom passed too. It was a bad two years. Other stuff too but too personal to get into. My niece is fine after a year of chemo and radiation.

So the nonsense with my new car freaking out and being in service for 25 days, then having the drive shaft almost fall out 2 minutes before I would be merging at highway speed and my sewer gremlins going on at home for the past month are insignificant……

EDIT- almost forgot. Sciatica acted up and I’ve been in agony for almost two weeks. Friday was the first night I was able to sleep without waking up in pain. It seems to be almost gone. I only had it once before about 8 years ago. Brutal!

Breathe in, breathe out.

April 3rd I crashed my motorcycle at road Atlanta. Broken collarbone, jacked up shoulder, messed the bike up for a few grand. I'm still recovering. Hoping I get the all-clear on the bone healing and good news on the muscle pain around my pec on Wednesday because I'd like to start again with strength training. I've lost 13lbs I'd like to get back. Bike is mostly fixed, waiting on a few parts not you know how it is. Been riding casually but probably won't sniff a track until fall.

That's all I've got, I've been stupid lucky most of my life.

I feel better after reading some of these. My FML isn't quite as bad as some of you folks have endured. My biggest fear as I got closer to retirement was that one or more things beyond my control would mess it up. Well, Mom passed away, COVID, travel restrictions, supply shortages, the idiot Putin starting a war, the markets crashing and wiping out some of my retirement funds. All at or since my retirement. With the continued nightmare of traveling (flight cancellations, the risk of catching COVID, etc, etc), I've lost my wanderlust and I'm content to stay at home, which bothers me in a weird way. I'd love to "be" somewhere else, I just don't want to deal with getting there and back. I'm wondering how long it will take before we get back to what passed for normal before 2020.

Fuck me. What a colossal shit show that has been for a long run now, hope it all turns around. I'll refrain from a light hearted FML of accidently emptying 20pc of my pool.....seems a bit trivial... because it is.

There are a list of stretches you have to have on standby for when your sciatica flares up. I suffered from sciatica yrs ago, tried a lot of different methods, but stretches fixed it. Also, I don't do yoga and I am not someone who stretches otherwise.
