Minor Confession Thread

Whatever.  I ate 5 hotdogs. 

One 4th of July I ate three jumbo dogs and a ton of other crap.   That evening I was sick as a dog.  

The next day I turned to natural foods and daily juicing and lost 40 pounds.  After a year I got tired off all the prep work and slowly went back to the SAD Diet (standard American daily) only to gain 60 pounds back.   

Costco hot dogs and polish dogs make me sick.  As Pa would say; the GI E36 M3s.  

My confession: i have plenty of parts, no family tonight, and instead of actually making progress on projects im sitting in the recliner letting the xbox be a thiefof time.

It has to happen sometimes.

You deserve a break from time to time . Enjoy it, You've earned it!

The fill in pastor this morning drove up in a black kia soul. 

Theres a joke in there somewhere but i can't think of it.....

I finally drove one of my childhood dream cars, the Pontiac Fiero. Even with the bad reputation it was actually really fun. Now I want one even more.

There was one at Cars & Coffee with a 3800S/C swap last Saturday and as it left emitting the dulcet tones of a Grand Prix with a rotted-out muffler, I fell in love with them all over again. It's like a MR2 for the much more adventutrous. Yeah, it has the snap oversteer, but now there's the added excitement of possible immolation. 

Last night in the middle of a dream, I stopped doing what I was doing so I could consult with Dulcich and Fred.

I used to get excited for new U2 albums.

I don't know my RX7 generations at all. 

I stayed up way too late playing No Man's Sky.

I bought it when it was released in 2016. I played it once, then put it down. The NEXT updates made it enjoyable again.

Sleep is for suckers! (Well rested suckers )

That and Gran Turismo are the reasons I don't own a modern gaming system. I like being employed and married, and both would be in jeopardy if I had either game at home.

Not sure if this is a minor rant or a minor win, so I'll leave it here: I don't own a TV.

I used to be disgusted, but now I try to be amused.

Im trying to justify building a bagged service body truck.

My 3 year old has more in her savings account than I do

People underestimate my abilities. Both good and evil.

This is my garage for the next three years... I have no car to put in it, and no plans for one anytime soon

I don't know if I have a can for filling that lawn mower, or where to fill it!  Good thing it's like 35degC here, and all the grass is barely alive.

In reply to sleepyhead :

Did i miss something? Ehst happened to the acura, etc?

Sort of, TL;DR is: I'm in Europe for a couple years. 

My wife and I currently own three cars, none of them are here.  Her car is at her parents, the Acura is at my parents, and my Mazda5 is waiting on a replacement title before it's dealt with.  The Sonata was a no-go with the wife, and we ran out of time/expertise to find something to ship over.

Ah. Well, enjoy europe!

Thanks, we're going to try.

It took forever to fall asleep last night because I was thinking about the WPL B-1 from the cheap RC thread. Watching YouTube for 2 hours last night didn't help one bit.

I found a whole bunch of cool upgrades for pennies. It's still a "toy" level RC but it seems like fun to tinker on.

im seriously contemplating tinting my broken wagon while waiting on parts that may or may not fix it.

just because i can.

when you've got 5 minutes, do a 5-minute job.

also, when you've got a job you *can* do while the car is inop, make like Nike and Just Do It.
