I should really be in bed asleep right now because I have to be up for work in a few hours but I am just not tired at all and I really just do not feel like sleeping.

I registered for classes for Fall today and I am going to have a full load this fall. So it looks like my social life is pretty much going to be over for awhile. Hopefully I can stay sane by making some new friends on here that I can talk to in the fake internet world lol

I was told I am getting laid off in 2 weeks. This is not cool at all. The job market here sucks bad. I have already been looking for a new job and have had no luck at all but the fact that I am going to NEED a new job soon has me pretty worried. Hopefully I can get by on unemployment until I...

Well I got quite a bit of work done on the Torino the engine looks amazingly clean considering how dirty it was before I got started. I did rebuild the carburator but turns out one of the bowls is bad and needs replaced so it is leaking gas so I still can't drive the car which sucks. However I did find a bowl so hopefully...

Wel I picked up my new Project car today and I am really excited. It is a 1971 Ford Torino with a 390 Big Block. I posted some pictures in my pics so go check them out. Obviously it needs some body work but it is a great and solid project and should be amazing when it is done.

Well I got my bike back but the tags are expired and the title and license bureau are closed until tomorrow so I have not been able to ride and of course it is now going to rain all week so no riding for me for awhile. However I am glad to have it back and running well and I can't wait to get back...
