Whoohoo! New blogger debuts...the backend where yours truly does his work looks a little different, but not too much. Looks like just spit and polish to me, but what do I know?
Update: Working on the car, should have back end put back together by the end of this weekend. Summit's gofast stuff went back (Damn shipping hurt!) and I will soon be the bitch of a friend of mine. Can't whine too much tho, he will be selling me a bunch of stuff I eventually will need. Sleep is starting to become a stranger again, and I might be working 3rd shift (again) soon. That means that I will be conversing with and selling stuff to wierdos at odd hours again...At least I won't be bored. School is a clusterfuck, I won't get into that TODAY I think I finally have most of the basic tools that I will need for the foreseeable future tho. And harbor freight no doubt thanks me.
Praying I won't be too broke by the time b-day comes...as I plan to get shitfaced as I never have before. I have never totally cut loose...always been paranoid. No time like the present...
Must get car running, that is first priority, next comes worrying about classes, then worrying about bills. We will see what happens after that. I am also not worrying about front end stuff for now, at least not till car is running again. It sucks tho, as I wanted suspension taken care of first...but nothing will get done if I cry myself a fucking river, will it?
Since I'm spending all my money on this car shit anyhow, I might as well get totally into it. It's actually cooler in the garage (and basement) than in the house anyhow. So if I take my time, I won't die of heat exhaustion or anything.
I had some profound and witty shit to put on here when I logged in, but I can't remember now, after having started talking about all this other stuff...On a personal note, I'm reading Michavelli's The Prince off and on. Neat stuff, and not quite as cutthroat as people would have you believe. Now maybe I can find my book of 5 rings and tao te ching and actually finish the fuckers. Amazing what you will do (LEARN) when you refuse to let COX fuck you in the ass, and no longer have any internet at home...You accomplish more when stuff isn't right at your fingertips, I guess.
Comments work again for some mysterious reason, so talk to me....

update: Rest of the stuff showed up, haven't had any effin' time to do anyting cause of classes. So, i've been blatantly spending money on tools. Mom's burban went to the tranny shop yesterday, so she can have her gas guzzling vehicle that she LIKES, and i can have the solid, steady little wagon that she thought was too ugly and old. jezus, it's like i'm married, I tell you. never satisfied. Anyhow, owner of my camaro club had to pull his wife and three kids out of a flaming astro van the other day. So far, all kids and spouse have survived. I still can't believe it tho. I also went and picked up a big block a coupla days ago. 454, as a matter of fact. the guy i bought it from was a ford guy, who had no use for it, and hte guy HE bought it from had put it together and had no oil pressure on startup, so he yanked it and sold it. this was 4-5 years ago. Basically, the block has all brand new parts. i could sell it piecemeal, and make over twice what i paid for it...assuming nothing was trashed. But it looks in good condition.
I don't know what's up lately. Maybe it's cause i don't have time to be cool and laid back, but it sure seems like this is piss off the friends week. First I piss off some guys and gals that i hang with every so often, by telling the chick who was pissed at her b/f that i support whatever she was gonna do. Big mistake. All of a sudden i'm involved in drama, which i tell everyone i have no intention of continuing in. Then i got crazy, wierdo, freaky girl that i go on date with. Then I got to deal with my buddy who has worked at an autozone for the past 3 years, and still knows nothing about cars. yes, the same one i sold the hood to, if anyone is even reading these posts.
Did I mention open computer labs suck? I got people i don't know aguing with other people about the world about to end, and then coming over and talkign to me. Some old dude came ringing on my doorbell, and knocking like the damn police, shoved my mailman out of the doorway, and wanted to know if i wanted him to mow my lawn. Well, it IS almost a full moon, I guess. And I have always had this wierdo magnet thing going.
Classes suck. i have 3 touchy-feely classes back to back now. Speech...i'm sorry, interpesonAL communication (damn shift button wont work) I had years ago at butler...I couldn't stand it or the busy work that I have to do for the class, so I left early, and went to find out if I could get out of it. NOPE..."Here at friends, your program is a package deal. No matter how much it may hurt, you have to bend over for us for another year" then 2 more classes at butler, where I have to sit on my ass and listen to two instructors who love to hear themselves talk. Nice enuf people, and lecture is intersting (kinda) but SIX GODDAMN HOURS of sitting twice a week is driving me nuts...and with all the stupid busywork/community service, groups projects and all this other stupid kiddy shit, I don't have time to breathe, let alone work enuf to pay bills, or work on car. WHY, GOD????
