What kind of sadistic bastard…

designs an automobile using both british and metric nuts and bolts. I took the truck’s dashboard apart so that I could remove the stock cassette deck and put my Blaupunkt in. I managed to get most of it done, and then nearly drive myself crazy trying to figure out how to remove the last two…

Ok…. I clearly have a problem….

I’m sitting here reading a trucking magazine trying to justify to myself how I need to replace my steering wheel with with one of these: (warning, links open new windows) Impala Flames I had joked about this earlier, but seriously, if I try to pain a confederate flag on my roof or hood, someone please…

Once again its about 195 degrees in my house… sigh… cold is getting better… this is a good thing… I think I may stop the chiropractor appointments soon… my neck is still a little sore, but the appointments aren’t really making so much of a difference anymore. its more of a nuisance than anything else.…

Yawn…

Stayed up late last nigh and watched Mullholland Dr. This might have been a mistake, I liked it very much, but then Anu, Dana, Logan and I discussed the movie for a couple of hours (beststephi went to sleep). Going to bed at 3:30-4:00 in the morning is probably a bad idea when you have…

new and improved (or something)

Well that was a good way to waste an evening… I made my own live journal template. Not for any good reason, since as wooble pointed out, just about anyone who would read this would do it through their own friend page. But hell with it. I like it. Did the entire thing without the…

I thought I had air conditioning…

It’s getting hot in here So take off all your clothes I don’t know why, but its really really hot in my house right now even though the air conditioning is on. That kinda sucks. * * * Drove by both of the houses again with Anu and sui66iy. Still waiting to hear from the…

Went looking at houses today…

I’ve been thinking of buying a house again. Mostly I am just tired of paying way too much money to someone else for basically doing nothing and getting nothing in return. I mean, sure I get shelter, but I could get shelter in a place I was buying for ultimately less money. Here are the…

Things that happened on my birthday

So I already knew that I shared a birthday with Tempestt Bledsoe (Vanessa from the Cosby Show) and Dom DeLuise (2nd fiddle to Burt Reynolds, looks a lot like Paul Prudhomme) and Francis Scott Key (writer of some silly little song or something), but I just looked up other interesting things about my birthday. Juliet…

That wasn’t so bad…

had my first adjustment from the chiropractor this evening. Not bad at all. He started by checking for tenderness in my muscles and then checking the way my body hung. After his initial examination he determined that I was suffering from a couple of problems which are pretty standard to auto wreck victims. The first…

I guess I’ll take what I can get…

So I checked availability of plates with PennDOT. Only three of the ones I want are available. (I didn’t check BIG DAWG, as great as it is, because Steph would probably leave me if I got it.. 🙂 ) So, please rate the following choices: 1 being favorite, 3 being least favorite.

Road to Recovery

gonna go play tennis in a bit… It’ll be the first bit of exercise I’ve had since the accident. Looking forward to it, but its kind of scary at the same time. My back feels a lot better than it did initially, but it still hurts, and my neck is still kinda stiff… I guess…
