The sun is out (finally) and the early orders are starting to roll in. And I find out I've already got another day of the week behind me. Not too shabby.

Today I picked up Jezzabell the SL from the body shop to have some rust spots removed and she looks fabulous. Thanks to Donny at Euromotor Cars in Germantown, MD.

Got another online date today, it's her birthday so it's a biggie. Got the $**t, shave, shampoo and shoeshine thingie done, so it's down to which car will I take for the 175 mile sojourn

Curious how all of that has a cachet of respectability it never used to now we are in the 21st century. There is even a kind of protocol for it.

Vamos a ver.

packing some delorean parts for shipping tomorrow

finishing up some calc homework

getting ready for work

wooo


Heh.. I kinda forgot I had a job for the past week. I was like... am I still employed since they have given me like no hours but I still have money, duh delorean parts lol

made $130 last night( well 290 but james and I are splitting it down the middle after shipping)... and should have $160 by tomorrow from DMC) Plus I got $190 yesturday as well, not bad for one day and that was all small stuff. Currently waiting for a $120 check to come in so I can send the radio bracket and the old radio out.

currently waiting for a "cold knife" to show up from amazon so I can replace the glass on my car.

James and I separated the frame and body tub of the parts car last night. We removed all of the mounting bolts and I was like, I wonder how light this is, sure enough I had the front half a good foot off of the mounts.

So we both just lifted it off and shuffled it to the left of the frame.

Sold the two wagons, and am making space for something cooler.

it's automatic.

All quiet here...

Loving the cooler weather. Lower gas prices make ragtop driving all the better! W124 is at indie's for misfiring issues, brake pads and flex disk.

No major projects down the pike yet, but I might clean up and tune up the VW motor just to see if it starts! If so, I've sealed my fate as to what the NEXT project will be!

Otherwise, daughter's "mono" adventure is in remission, while the wife is now suffering from the onset of the same...

Oh yeah...daughter gets fitted for braces tomorrow... ...she should be a pleasant companion this weekend...

Ouch! Certainly nothing constructive, or insightful, that I can offer. I wish you luck, though!

I'm finishing up our bulk catalog, eyes glazed, staring at the screen and typing away. I pop in after each page I finish.
