Muscles hurt where i didn't even know i had them...
10am - 10pm. That's how long it took to put in coilovers and sway bars. After everything was said and done, the only thing you can tell that was different, was that my car was raised just slightly up front, and lowered just slightly in the rear... and me and Irv covered head to toe in grease. All i can say... is that it was a learning experience. I've learned a new phrase too, "It's times like this, i wish i had air-tools." Thanks for that one, Irv =). (And thanks for helping me and sharing my pain.. LOL!)
The purpose/result? Pros: Adjustability, responsive handling, and the ability to take turns like no other. Cons: Stiff @$$ ride, feel every bump in the road, and having a headache until i get used to the ride.
"Got Rice B*tch?!"
----- In other news: -----
Going to Knott's Scary Farm this weekend with practically everybody. It'll be fun. It's always fun going with a girl. This time... even more fun, cuz it's my gf ;) I hope she doesn't get too scared. I know she doesn't like that kinda stuff, but she's taking one for the team. Everyone's going, so no blacksheeps left behind.
My grandpa was in the hospital last week. He was having problems with his lungs (he smokes non-stop), and he had low blood pressure. He's ok and i wanted to go see him yesterday, but that didn't happen. I'm realizing they're not gonna be around forever and that i should spend at least a lil time with them, even though my mom would be totally against it. =/ That's a whole different story...
Anyways... it's monday... i'm sore as FAWK... and i wanna go home. Thank God it's a 4-day week (for me).

Tired...
Haven't posted much substance lately, mainly due to the fact that i've just been really tired. Actually... i've been tired since senior year of college. I haven't really slowed down since then. The time frame between graduation and the present has been pretty much a blur. I can still remember graduation day with my parents, my sister, Sar, and David.... and having to go to work at 6am the next morning =P
I've learned a lot about the working world. It's pretty much the same thing day after day. That's pretty much why it's been a blur. Ofcourse i've learned a lot about computers within the timeframe, but it's stil the same routine. Here's a glimpse of my average day:
5:30am - wake up
5:50am - shove food into my face
6:00am - fight traffic
7:00am - curse traffic for making me late to work
7:10am - walk into the office
7:10am-6:00pm - Break computers
6:00pm - fight traffic
7:00pm - Get home
7:30pm - Eat dinner
8:00pm - Shower
8:30pm - One of these: TV, Email, Chat, Games
9:00pm - Talk to Sara
10:00pm - Sleep
Kinda makes you wanna stay in school doesn't it? But even though i make it seem like my life is kinda sh*tty... i still love my job and i'm enjoying myself doing it. It's just that i get tired and i really, REALLY, REALLY need a vacation.
At some point... even the Energizer bunny needs a recharge.
