edlib Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 This morning, the 100 degree weather we'd been having was dropped down into the 70's. Loving that part...We could use a bit of that right now. Wondering if I'm going to drag out the A/C units tonight after work just in order to get a little sleep tonight. High school songwriters doing open mic nights at work all this week. Yeah... it's exactly every bit as angsty as it sounds. Fortunately: We are in the process of getting a new guy comfortable in the hall and on the gear, and he's been shadowing me all week. So... a perfect opportunity to get him acquainted on a couple of simple nights... that I don't have to sit there and listen to all the teenage emo drama set to three-chord changes.
K_Kinnison Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 Last Friday we found out our Central Air-conditioning was leaking freon. For a few 80 degree days we had nothing but fans. Thankfully we have a front system move through and dump a lot of rain, and humidity, and cool air. Getting a new heater and Air conditioners next week. they are going to clean out the duct works and we are going to have to lock the cat into one of the storage rooms downstairs, so he doesn't (and he would) go into the ductwork
Rogue15 Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 buddy wants to sell me his 1998 mitsubishi 3000 gt sl...is gonna accept payments, going to go test drive it when he gets home.
edlib Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 That was a very nice car back in the day, if it's still in decent shape.
Rogue15 Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 it is, runs very smooth, good a/c. going to get it next week when i get paid.
Cmdr. Cracken Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Make sure you check the underside. Get under it and inspect it for rust damage if it's been north of the Mason-Dixon Line for any length of time. Any potential breaks in the pipage down there, get him to replace it BEFORE you buy it, and negotiate it off the selling price. Also,..... oh ****, just take it somewhere and pay to get it inspected. Just to be sure. Not to say your buddy is gonna screw you.... but people no longer surprise me on the level of asshattery they will do. Everything but the kitchen, bathroom, and PC is packed and ready to go. By tomorrow night, I will be a free man.
Zoom Rabbit Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Congratulations. And it's about time... (@ last two posters.)
Rogue15 Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 planning on keeping it for the non-snowy months, as it is pretty low to the ground, and in the meantime i could save up for another subaru-ie something to carry kayak/bike in. I have never owned a sports car before, so im pretty ****ing excited about this. also, my bud had it inspected last month and a bunch of new stuff put onto it, was selling it on facebook for 4000 but there weren't any takers so he offered it to me for 2500 after i asked him about it half-jokingly, but since he's willing to take payments from me, that's a win in my book...gives me time to save up for a good down payment on something at a stealership so i can improve my credit. glad to hear you're about out of that hell-hole, cracken. i wouldn't have been able to tolerate the bull**** without going on the offensive.
Cmdr. Cracken Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Literally ****ing done with this bitch. Power at the old place will get switched off tomorrow. I no longer care about jack **** anything in regards to her. ****ing. Done. Last night here, what does she do? Have some douchebag over and keeps me up until 4 a.m. Like.... seriously. **** you.
mattig89ch Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Always hate to hear about a couple breaking up. But, sometimes its better to be alone then miserable.
Zoom Rabbit Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 I think he'll miss her... Only because he buys cheap bullets.
Cmdr. Cracken Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Luckey I don't own a firearm yet. I probably would have used it.
Cmdr. Cracken Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Always hate to hear about a couple breaking up. But, sometimes its better to be alone then miserable. Check my post history, and you'll see why she won't be missed. Goddamned whore.
Keyan Farlander Posted July 9, 2015 Author Posted July 9, 2015 Here's to Cracken's freedom! *Drinks coffee*
Zoom Rabbit Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Getting new tires for my highway raider today. Here is an old one, manufactured during the last century sometime according to the coding on the side of the tire... They're putting new Eclipse all season tires on right now. I'm posting using the tire service company's guest wi-fi while I wait. *(Sips coffee.)* Changing tires is such hard work.
K_Kinnison Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 too bad Cracken didn't go out in style. Should have had a party where you only invited gays and lesbians to have an orgy
Zoom Rabbit Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 A party where you only invited gays and lesbians to have an orgy That would be a divided room... If you included bi-sexuals, that might stir things up a bit. R15, congratulations. May your new car prove fast, fearless and faithful. Git on that freeway and open up the throttle first thing, you hear?
Cmdr. Cracken Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Back online! Move went surprisingly easy..... all to easy. Got everything in one go. **** ever going back there. Preparing to pay the last July electric bill, because she's a bitch and they won't let me kill it while another person is living there. So, to protect myself, I'm going to draft an handwritten document and have the old rental office sign and copy it stating I am no longer living at the apartment. Just in case I have to go to civil court to make her life goddamned miserable. Yes, I am that petty. But freedom! Oh man, Pants Optional Zone engage! Can't wait to actually sleep tonight.... after I unpack more stuff.
Rogue15 Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 just drove the car to my old place of employment (walmart) and back. opened it up...it's ****ing fun to drive. lol now not sure if i should drive it to work because during my shift, at least the first 3 hours...requires...the meter being payed, and if i miss paying that's a $20 parking ticket. not sure if i want to **** around with that or pay per month to utilize the parking garage. happy now that i can venture beyond my 3 mile radius without relying on my friends. @cracken: yeah screw that stupid ****. happy you are out of that situation bro. what a stupid whore.
Cmdr. Cracken Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 If you can walk to work.... do that. It'll save money on gas, especially if it's relatively close. And it'll help keep ya in shape! Obviously, if the weather doesn't permit it, take the car.
Rogue15 Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 yeah, i'm in that situation where i'm not sure if i want to drive to work because i'll have to park at a meter or in the parking garage. the meter would cost me about $15 a week, and the risk of parking tickets if i get caught up with work...and the parking garage $80 a month, easier parking, i'll probably go with that.
Zoom Rabbit Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Park on the roof. It's all about the backing up skills.
Cmdr. Cracken Posted July 11, 2015 Posted July 11, 2015 Finally got the last box unpacked. The last remnants of the Old Republic have been swept away.
