Down at yodaslap's pad. Safe and sound. A looooong 9 hour drive later (it should only have taken 8hrs and 43minutes, and I was shooting for 7ish) we arrived.

Anyway, typing on his computer now. Man, I need an LCD screen. My CRT no longer can cut it.

Sorry, extremely poor picture, but this is what I found in my sweet and sour pork last weekend at a ghetto restaurant.

If you can't tell, it's a fly, not a fly that stuck on the pork, but the fly was actually glazed, yes, that's right folks, bonus time.

....Too much protein for me.

I can't wait for this stupid trip to start. Every meeting I get dragged into, the first thing that comes through my mind is, "Isn't it Friday yet?"

I've been so dying to get out of the office, you don't understand.

....Oh yeah, I beat another speeding ticket rap. What's that, 5 now? posted by losir at 1:17 AM

I'm spending money now like I've got some.

I don't even know what's wrong with me, I want to buy everything in sight. I scour the internet for something that will make me happy, something expensive, shiny, and/or just plain cool.

Heck, I've even got the car modding bug again, and just purchased a second-hand Forge DV-R , which I probably need any way because my stock one is starting to go.... at least that's what the diagnostic scan tool says.

And then I started seriously looking into getting a CAI (Cold Air Intake) system for it and was going to buy second-hand (again). AEM CAI - Dyno Plot in PDF format

Of course, I'm not stupid, I did some searching on CAI systems, and basically concluded that for sound and minimal performance gain, it was NOT worth the risk of extra dust and/or water into my engine, especially if the turbo may be affected, but man, I was still tempted.

So what else do I plan on doing? Probably ghetto exhaust, a TDI mid-pipe and a Remus muffler out back. Thought of a downpipe as well, but little too much money for an extra 3-4 horses.

Geez, I have to stop, because although I love my car, I don't love cars in general. Yet, building my little GTIto get 225 at the crank is tempting. Heck, that's the same as a stock Audi TT

Money, I need money.

....No. I need brains, and will power to stop. posted by losir at 1:00 AM

I swear, if I have to hear one more song of Lil John screaming "What?" in the background, I'm just going to go rabid and bite someone in the ankle.

Here's a sobering disturbing thought, I have over $100 in underwear alone.

....How the heck did I end up like this? posted by losir at 1:31 AM

The definition of a poser.

The dude in the champagne-coloured Camry with his seat leaned back and left wrist placed gangsta-like on the top part of the steering wheel, blasting hip hop laced liberally with profanity, rocking back and forth, giving me the hard stare as he drives swiftly past me, only because I was trying to save gas.

You're a bad, bad boy, star. You're as hard as they come, cruising in you Mommy's car, trying to look tough - jams blasting out the stock stereo, bass jacked all the way to the max, because we can't tell that you don't have that 12" sub in the trunk.

Sure buddy, you're real fast in the automatic.

....For those that don't have it out back, front.

I've had an American quarter in my pocket for the last three weeks. I've kept it in my right pocket for all this time because I've been really looking forward to going down to Chicago next week. I keep the quarter because ni case I get lost or tossed into ail by some redneck copper in the middle of nowhere, I at least can make one phone call.

I know it's solsilly, but I've time and time again resisted spending this quarter, so much so that I broke a $50 dollar bill the other day just because I didn't have exact change.

.....My will to update is gone, so consider this a long post. posted by losir at 1:44 PM
