I raked up and bagged 21 f*cking bags of leaves and pine needles. Big f*cking bags. And swore over some non running VWs. Neutral

Worked on the site Sunday morning, had to look for a title form on txdot site and of course they had changed it again. So I made a thread with all the common title forms we use linked straight to the forms. Cool

Watched "Yes Man", which was freaking hilarious, and then watched "Underworld" which I thought was good. And I may or may not have had too much to drink.

What did I do yesterday? I'll tell you. I spent the first half in VW repair bliss.

Nothing wrong wif dat.

Then went to DQ, and had a patty melt with fries.

Nothing wrong wif dat.

THEN, I went to Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, and Pier 1 for bathroom decorations with my wife. I swear, why do they want us there for this crap? I mean seriously. Who needs to go through all these shower curtains, towels and rugs just to find out they dont really match the idea you had in your head, and have to go back through all these shower curtains, towels and rugs again. And why am I needed to decide between votives, flowers or some liquid with sticks in it? I mean seriously?

Then, my daughter had her Basketball "graduation" at the Baptist church. So we go under the guise of "graduation". It was church, plain and simple for over an hour. The graduation part? 10 seconds at the end. "Coaches, your certificates are under your seats. Hand them out and you are free to go." What a gyp.

Anywhoo. That was my yesterday, for my Saturday, I went to a junkyard. Yippee!

That lady put a smile on my horse's face. Smile

She had 2 vertebrae in her neck & a rib out of place, and her sacroiliac needed adjustment. Shocked

Getting Started

Replaced the starter this weekend - a 1 hour job that took almost 2.5 due to that $#*@ bushing - and who in Wolfsburg thought - "lets put the other bolt behind the doghouse...."

One of those jobs that would be much easier the SECOND time you have to do it.

Needed to be changed - the old one was falling apart (literally screws almost all the way unscrewed) and I think in the end it stuck engaged because it burnt out (I could smell it) after about 10 minutes of driving - had to have the car towed home - didn't try to push start it but would have if USAA didn't include towing.

Works now though!
