My mother sometimes loses her temper and has mood swings sometimes, too. They aren't that bad, but every few years there's a day when she has one and I'm left feeling crushed, hurt, and lonely.
Today, we(my bro, mom, and I) went to a car dealership to quickly get some special device installed in our car. It was only supposed to take like, 15 minutes, but we were left waiting for 4 hours. After the key got installed we were supposed to go shopping, but my mother was so angry that once we got in the car, she started going on about how our father never pays for anything(my parents are divorced), and how she's supposed to pay for everything, and how we'll just return the car and she'd never, ever take us out anywhere. Then she went on about if there was any hope in her life, and a bunch of other things. Almost the entire time I was sitting in the back crying quietly. Once we got home we all went to our bedrooms and this is where I am now. Please, please help me out. What do I do?

Some online games are just for spanish or chinese speakers and the text inside are all the natives word. But how do they input the letters besides using english letters? Do they need some kind of program to do it? I tried using language tool bar but i can only type it on internet explorer or microsoft office and not on a game program application..

Hello, I've been wanting to get a used car around the price range of $12,000-13,000. I've searched on-line for auto loans but no one seems to give out loans to people under 18. I also have another problem that is I have no credit because all the money I earned when I was working I was paying my friend off. Are there any lenders that give out loans to people under 18 and that are first time buyers? I don't get why banks don't give auto loans to teens when they are the most people in need of a loan. Can anyone help me with this situation? Thanks

Also, you can email me at avtamat@hotmail.com if you can help me out.

:)

I have a craftsman 42cc-18 inch chainsaw. My boss cought his tree down and gave me the trunk pieces that he cut down. They range from 2 feet wide ,3 feet high to 8 inches high, 1 foot high. I just got a blade for it. I set tension and it has an automatic lube. I read the book for the chainsaw and followed the directions, but after cutting 2 logs that were 8 inches high, 1 foot high the blade dulled out on me. It just will not cut anymore. I dont understand what I did wrong. I did not overload the chainsaw. Also any tips on cutting real big tree trunk pieces.

Today is 9/1/07, and my last period was on 7/7/07. When I missed my period in August, I didn't really notice. When Mid-August hit, I thought, "oh, I should have had a period by now." I bought a home pregnancy test at the pharmacy and it came out negative. I thought I was ok. Two weeks later, I still haven't had my period. Next week I will have missed two periods. I have hypothyroidism and I'm on Levothyroxine. A friend of mine told me that she has a thyroid problem, too, and for both of her pregnancies, she never tested positive on a home pregnancy test. I made an appointment to go to the Doctor, and she took another urine test there. It was also negative. The doctor said the only way to be sure was to have a blood test done. I said I didn't want a blood test because I couldn't afford the lab work. How long should I wait before I use another home pregnancy test, and at what point should I whip out a credit card and charge a blood test? How accurate are these tests?

I know that the number being divided would have to be even and that it would also have to therefore end in a zero to fascillitate the five.

If such a number exists what is it called?
It would, virtually, be the complete opposite of a prime number.

Now that I'm in college it's a little harder to comfortably bring up the fact that my brother is different to my friends, especially guys!

How soon do I need to let a potential boyfriend know? And I need ideas of how to introduce them in person later on (if it gets that far which it might). I have never had a boyfriend, and so I am very worried about this. I am afraid that I will scare this guy off and he would not want to date me (I do know that I shouldn't worry because I wouldn't want to date anybody who doesn't accept my family anyway, but still it's scary!)

My brother is two years younger than me so is still in high school, is fairly verbal, but will sometimes say random stuff that makes no sense unless you've spent a lot of time with him.

Anyway my biggest concern is how to tell my friend without (a) sounding like I'm trying to start a pity-party or (b) getting him too weirded out?

Whether you're a sib yourself or just have ideas, thanks.
