Damn people who aren't careful when they open their car doors. I got my first door ding on Saturday. And it had to have been while i was at Fry's Electronics.
Anyone know a good paintless dent removal place?

1 mp3 mix cd = $0.15 1 pack of Orbit Spearmint gum = $0.89
Both items stolen from my G35c when i took it in for service = 1 pissed off customer.
It's not the fact that the items were valuable. It's the fact that it HAPPENED. I never thought this kinda stuff would happen at supposedly one of the largest Infiniti dealers on the west coast. I guess i shouldn't be so naive. Thefts happen everywhere and people cannot be trusted.
I already brought it to the cashier's attention before i left, but the service manager was gone for the day. I was told to call and report it to the service mgr tomorrow.
We'll see what happens.
On a brighter note: My OEM lip spoiler is on... YAY! Can't take pics cuz it's too dark outside. Still gotta find an opportunity to snap some shots of the car.

That title is slightly misleading... unless ofcourse you were at Sar's house Saturday night for several rounds of $25,000 pyramid (boardgames run rampant with Sar's family).
Ofcourse a big HAPPY 22nd BIRTHDAY!!! to Sar! It wasn't a very festive one this year as she had to work that night (Friday) for AutumnFest at the JACCC. Sucky. But i'm happy now that she's finally done with that crap. At least we were all there to help and it was in support of her and not the actual cause. At least we got to have cake at the end of the night!
Saturday was spent lounging and giving Charlie a bath. Had bday dinner with Sar's parents at McGrath's Fish House. The food there isn't the best, but certainly worth the price. Afterwards was the $25,000 pyramid until about 2am. Fun times.
Sunday was some Toys 'R Us shopping in South Coast as the store is closing. 20% off all toys so HoHo wanted to do some early X-mas shopping. Afterwards was a trip to the Roller-rink for some skating. This one kid tripped me up and i almost fell on top of him. My right knee hit the floor first and i was able to hold myself up and not completely crush him. My knee still hurts. REAL bad. After that was dinner at "Buffet Land" where we all ate like pigs (Korean BBQ).
That's pretty much all i can remember. I can't remember what i did the weekend prior. Today i took my G35 in for service. They gave me a loaner FX35 to take for the day. I also got my front OEM lip put on too. Can't wait to see it.

My mom, my sister, and myself were at the checkout line at Costco. I was taking care of an expired membership when my sister said she needed to use the restroom. After a couple minutes, my mom walked away. Two more minutes pass and i don't see my mom or my sister, so i wait in the isle thinking they're both in the restroom. All of a sudden i catch my mom screaming and crying out to me while clutching my sister on the floor. My sister was pale and lifeless. My heart sank as i realized what had happened and what i feared would happen.
I ran to both my mom and sister and found Lyn to be unresponsive, cold and sweaty. I thought she was gone. I ordered a costco employee to call 911 as i see my sister start to come around. She's moving, but not talking. After a few more scary moments. Her eyes start to focus and she mumbles she's ok.
The paramedics arrive and take her vitals. By now my sister is alert and answering the paramedics' questions. After she's stabilized, she is rushed by ambulance to Beverly Hospital. We find out her blood pressure is way low and that her blood cell count is very low as well. She's ok though. Her color has returned and she says she feels fine. After 2 more days at Kaiser hospital after a transfer, she's back at home and is doing well.
We still don't know exactly what happened, but the doctors say it was probably dehydration paired with her low blood pressure. They're still going to run tests to see if it was a seizure or something else. All we know is that my sister blacked out and remembers sitting down on the floor. She was aware of what was happening, but was unable to respond. I'm just glad she's still here.
What i have just written in this little blog will be the scariest moment in my life thus far. The image of my mom screaming at me and my sister on the floor will forever be etched in my head.
I pray nothing like this ever happens to you, my friends. Thank you to all those who have expressed concern for my sister and my family. It is deeply appreciated.
