I'm surviving the flu...but just barely.
I can think of a million other things I'd rather be doing than trying to keep myself together while working on cars. For the most part my group members let me just sit there and look dazed.
Yesterday I actually managed to try and help...but broke a sweat just trying to get a bolt into the steering assembly.

The only thing worse than having to get up at 5AM on a dark, rainy, cold, dismal morning to go to school?
Doing it when you have the flu

hope you feel better baby. waking up early sucks ass! when i used to work at starbucks years ago i used to have to get up at 4:30am to open the store at 5:30! wackness!
I absolutely did NOT want to get out of bed this morning...
After working three nights in a row...and the weather being as cold and dismal as it is...Plus, I caught myself a cold, probably from that Friday night I stayed awake for 36 hours...
Whatever it was...I'm feeling pretty miserable.
As with all misery, it was loving that my friend Matt was also not...

Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. I'm sure your outlook on life will improve when your health does too. We still miss you!
Oh and the new profile pic rocks.

It's a miracle...the good mood I was in on Friday...has lasted all weekend.
Working Friday went well. We were busy and I raked in a bunch of cash. Sat and talked to this cute young dude until 6:30AM after the bar closed.
Saturday before heading back to the bar I stopped off and purchased one of those little cd/cassette adapter thingers for my car. Yes,...

If I could be made into anything, it'd be one of these things...
Tour manager for a hot band
Piercer
Tattoo shop owner
Vegas showgirl
Rock star, definitely. I always wanted to sing. I want to be Candice from Walls of Jericho. She's so fucking hardcore.
♥ ♥ ♥
You're awesome.

And welcome to the end of course...
Today was the last day of my 'structural 2' class.
That's two out of three, for those of you who haven't been paying attention.
I'm very happy with the way this class went...despite my low test grades. I'd like to say that I don't know what happened, but I'm pretty sure I didn't study as much as I...

Duuuude, I can totally make a sweet mix tape using a CD player and cassette recorder. It only takes me about five hours.
Congrats on being kick ass.

So there I was...signing the attendance sheet after lunch when our instructor said he wanted my group to stay in the classroom after everyone else went back out into the garage to work on their cars...
The only people who have been asked to stay in the classroom for a chat so far was the group who's car actually got pulled of their rack while...

I love you and I miss you and we need to catch up! It's so fucking cold here. Any chance you'll have a few days off in a month or so, to roadtrip down to Austin with a friend visiting from NYC?

Why can't I see any of the pictures except the last one? No fair! I wanna see too!
Here's my potential new toy: Rat Rod if it doesn't sell, he's bringing it to Lone Star Roundup and I'll look at it and possibly buy it there. Waddaya say? Feel like helping to finish building it if I get it?

flatblack:
I just saw the pictures in your pics section. Very cool. I've actually been thinking of doing something similar with the rat rod. I want to paint a skull with a pompadour and crossed wrenches or something like that behind it. Is that a shake and spray job or did you use the real equipment? PS Don't you just look even cuter covered in paint dust? 
Still mulling over this whole mercedes vs. hotrod thing...
Sunday night at the bar...I was chatting with one of my regulars. One of maybe four people that were there
I was telling him about my options...and like everyone, when I presented the mercedes program, he was very excited.
But then I told him about the hotrod thing...
He took one look at me and said,...

anyways you know I would to do a photoset for you, I need to get some sunshine too....oneday I swear HOLLIDAY + Monster Truck = Sexy Tuesday morning...it's back to school.
I sincerely enjoyed my day off. So rare that I get to have a day where I don't have a single obligation.
Sunday afternoon I spent a bunch of time going back and forth between Autozone and O'Reilly's picking up some parts for my car...one being the replacement owner's manual. I suppose I've come to accept that she's mine...and if...

it's just VERY out of character for me. I'm generally on an even keel, btu the mood swings are killin' me!
legionnaire:
You are a rockstar. That's awesome. Good luck with this round of classes!
It's been a nice quiet weekend.
Friday I 'bartended' for one of my staff members' bday parties and collected $170 in tips. Not too shabby for a bar that's not even open.
I tell you, it's a lot of fun working at a bar that's not open. We don't have a register so I make up my own prices for things...I don't have to count...

Oh yes, that's the best part! If you married me, we could work on our hot rods together and you could get a job at the auto shop 7 miles from my house that does regular repairs as well as building some custom hot rods! Waddaya say? interested? Can I have GWAR play at the wedding?
citizencruz:
If you and BadCop get married can I bring my dogs to the wedding? Seriously...
So there I was...driving home from the bar Tuesday evening. Another eight hours spent painting my flames I'd laid down on the floor and helping in various other projects.
I felt pretty good about the way my flames turned out and everyone else seemed to like them. I was serously relieved to have them done. I had become obsessed with the project and was looking...

Hey, that would work. I would look all sensitive: "I found this poor lost kitten and I want to get rid of it's fleas." Alas, eve if I did chase after the vet and catch her, I know I'd be bored with her after about three days...I have this long history where only irresponsible crazy women can hold my interest.

i bet you wouuld bring me some my day did indeed suck. I got out of work at 4 and didnt get home until 6 because my car died and then my brother in law and i could get my hood open because the latch was broken and apparently we had to tap the hood and pull the cord at the same time. we learned that after my dad, who has the flu, had to come to my rescue even though I tried to avoid him haing to come out in the cold weather. I felt real shitty after that.
Candle light showers are the best. Especially wen shared with someone special.

Man, I remember when monster trucks were so big in popular culture, Bigfoot had its on Saturday morning cartoon.
Forget Joe DiMaggio.
Where have you gone Super Monster Truck?
Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you.
Woo woo woo.
What's that you say Mrs. Robinson?
Gravedigger has left and gone away.
