I started looking seriously at new vehicles the other day. I've narrowed it down to 5 or 6 different cars which fit nicely into my desired price range. 3 of them could pull a boat, but I wouldn't actually do that with any. Probably goign to test drive one of them on monday if I can drag myself out of the gym/off the quad and into my car to drive to the dealership.
Yesterday: 25mi bike ride + core.
Well, the family is about to become one less, or one more depending on how you look at things. Lately my iPod's battery lasts about 1 hour...unacceptable. I think I might turn it into a paperweight ot perhaps a second backup drive my my work.
Gotta make a decision about what i'm doing rather fast so I can still use my student discount at the apple store. Thoughts? (mini, iPod, iPod photo...comments welcome
The following is courtesy of the flat mate. What happens when a B.A.S.E jump goes bad. What is worse, the fact that this actually happened, or the fact that I tell fellow ems workers about the link and have a discussion like the following:
B.A.S.E. jump gone bad
hgs: what happens whena b.a.s.e. jump goes bad...
hgs: theres sound btw.
aw: wow, can you say OWWWWWW
hgs: I could probably deal with that a whole lot better if there wern't those gurgeling sounds crying for help
aw: haha hyea
hgs: how many things do you think he broke?
hgs: or easier question might be how many things do you think he didn't break
aw: i think crush is the word
aw: shatter
aw: lol
hgs: crush, shatter, obliterate...semantics
aw: haha exactly
I came to a conclusion coming back to my apartment this morning. I like my car. I know how unholy that sounds especially with all the complaining I do about it, but it really is pretty nice when I stop to think about it. Its not calling apart, no major damage to it and the stereo works. One doesn't really need much more than that. I have made a promise not to bitch about the car any more...except the gas milage, which SUCKS. Just found out the boat went into the water the other day. Unless the weather takes a huge dive it'll stay there until late september or early October.
Ok. so my ears are reveling in an orgy of The Faint, Keant and The Servant. Thanks to whoever sent me the first Faint song I heard...whomever you are. Gotta go to soundgarden and actually purchase a cd now that im addicted.
