I am alive
News in my world, Stephen Mayer and I replaced my radiator yesterday.
Upon inspection of oil seeping into the cooling system, I thought I was going to have to drop $1200 on a new head gasket. Coworker recommended a ghetto rigging of removing the radiator cap and just using water in the cooling system instead of an antifreeze mixture, effectively relieving pressure on the system and thus hopefully avoiding ruining the new radiator. Time will tell whether this is going to pay off. In any case, I am preparing for a future without car, for if I do have to drop a fat repair bill on the gasket assembly, I theorize an engine replacement isn't too far in the future.
