Tonight is a terrible night in the history of me...

Backing out of the 4' by 2' parking space I have in the 6' by 8' driveway at the new place I live at I managed to tag a tree on the side of it watching for the not one but two cars behind me so I could Austin Powers Turn my 7 around to drive forwards down the 45degree 30' long steep tire paths with steps in the center of them instead of backing out and bouncing down steps cause the tire paths are too wide for my car.... GRRR! So close to clearing but I didn't want to hit the other cars so I sacrificed mine I guess. I'm gonna pull the panel in the morning and tap it back out. There might be some kinks but it should pop out to normal again.

On the other hand a guy working at the Taco Bell where I went to get food told me my car was really nice but he was wondering why it sounded like a lawnmower. I laughed and explained it to him. He didn't get any of it other than I can beat all of the Honda Ricers on the road with less displacement.

Haha... it's okay. I've been busy too. I'm not totally living here yet. I'm finishing the attic for my room and it will be about a week till that is done. Then I'll probably be here full time. This is just where my computer is because there is internet here.
My phone is broken by the way... freak accident involving my hands and my phone.
I'll give you a call in the morning when I wake up. I'm heading down to Mason/Monroe here in a bit.

Sounds good, I got that App so you can help me with that getting a job thing I have so many plans, and I have a rapidly dwindling bank account... I hate those freak accidents.... I think my face had one with a socket wrench the other night.... little bastard slipped right off..

Also I need you to come over tommorow if you can and help take the dash out of that hunk of crap in my driveway... I am just going to sell it for scrap as soon as I give Steve the roof...

Yea we can pull the dash tomorrow... if I can have it.
Hah, I'll help you scrap it out. Then we can take it apart piece by piece and drop it off at affordable... Hey, I'm buying that GSL at Affordable. I found it today. I'm gonna try to pull it for like $300. My offer is to trailer it out of there for them. It'd be a perfect race shell and tuner motor. It also has the wheels in good condition and a full interior which is really clean.

If you want I can get a hold of a griner/metal saw and we can cut the roof off at the pillars too.

Yeah, you can have the interior if you want it. But the 7 at affordable has a full burgandy interior... Well Affordable has one rule about buying cars, no matter what the condition they are $500 and up... I know, and I know because I tried buying that exact 7... Well let me know, I will wait for you to call me whenever.

Oh, and definately get that Sawz-all or whatever it is, we will need it.
