It's been less than a full week since final exams for spring semester ended...and I'm already being notified that my summer registration is on the verge of being cancelled. 
Apparently I was expected to procure thousands of dollars while simultaneously dealing with finals. I filed my FAFSA as soon as I could yet the financial aid office hasn't finished processing everything yet, what the hell was I supposed to do?

My car wouldn't shift out of park when I went to go to work this afternoon. Cab would have taken too long to get here and than to work. Missed shift and car repairs.
Fortunately it looks like it's either the BOO switch or the MFS both of which I should be able to fix tonight, but I didn't need to miss that shift and have to buy fucking car parts.
Edit:
It's the BOO. Wires frayed. I think I may be able to fix it with just a pair of wire strippers. I've never needed wire strippers to cut the shielding of cables before...new experience.

Gravity is Shifting!
End of semester's killing me right now. Feel like hell, but gotta finish up this work. Luckily it's easy sailing after tomorrow, after my classes though I have a job interview so hopefully I can survive.

Lemme know how that turns out for you. My tbird had this exact same problem. I had my nephew in law cut a wire in the shifter, which freed things up but now the car's electrical is dead.

I shaved my beard and I'm already regretting it. I also regret getting a haircut last month.

Send those beard hairs here and I will glue them on my face.
Can't wait to get a summercut, though. My hair is not even long right now but my head still sweats a lot. On the other news, I just heard today that I will not get a graduation party as I have two cousins also graduating this spring so there would be no-one coming. Pretty much the only thing that made me go to high school was to have the party and have all the relatives come give me money.
It's the BOO for sure, but I can't get the leftover wire out of the switch so I am paying Ford to do it for me. Bullocks. Considering the job is pretty much already done.
I can't imagine why your car's electrical would be dead from a wire in the shifter. Could be the Multifunction Switch (MFS) maybe?
Easier why to solve the issue is to turn your key to the 'on' position, shift into neutral (you can do it in the on position) and than throw the ignition. Or you could just disable the interlock. But I don't have the right sized punch for my Crown Vic.
Although if your BOO is dead you won't have any brake lights.

That's exactly what's wrong. No brakelights, trunk release switch won't open, and nothing happens at all when I start the ignition. Not even the faintest click. The wire my nephew in law cut was the one connected to the brake pedal; which you would normally have to depress in order to shift. In my case, goddamn thing wouldn't even shift to neutral. No amount of force could get that button the shifter to depress. I replaced the brakelight safety switch and it still didn't work. I'm guessing it's the neutral safety switch, but I don't have the $50 to replace it right now. I'm going to try and see if I can sell a few things on craigslist to make a few bucks to fix this up.
More on topic:
I'm mad as hell because I haven't had a running car in like 3 weeks. This makes me a very sad panda.
One short trip to the convenience store with my brand new shoes and my heel feel like they would have grinded against cheese graters the whole time. Seriously, these are the second Vans shoes I now have owned which have had the same problem. Last summer I had fake ones which were the most comfortable shoes I have ever had so I don't get it why the real ones have to be so painful to wear then.
Well, I did try them of course but I don't get it why they always turn out to be bad in actual use.

I'm only 35 minutes into Dopesmoker and I really have to piss. I know I can just pause it, but I didn't come this far just to give up, dammit!

Terrible relationship stuff. Stupid bf and stupid broken promises. Maybe one day I'll actually meet someone that isn't such a horrible flake.
