Alecia says my truck looks like a bro truck, so now it's for sale.
1988 Sawblades vs. new cheapo trailer wheels (yeah, I didn't know they were trailer wheels until I was waiting to have them installed -- I was crushed!). I still like them :)
I left work today at 2:30 and just got home at 8pm. My commute is 9 miles.
Okay, so that includes a couple hours spent at Christa & Luke's house while I was waiting for the traffic to ease up, but that never happened. As I was getting onto the 91 fwy from I-15 I saw the 91 was stopped, but I didn't react fast enough, and I'm just not one of "those guys" who drive over the dirt. I just figured I'd get off at the next exit (McKinley) and drive home on Magnolia. Boy was I mistaken.
I did get off at McKinley, but both Magnolia and Indiana were completely stopped as well. I decided to drive back towards Corona where I could spent a couple hours at Christa & Luke's house. Dinner was great (thanks Christa) and then I decided to try again. I got off at Magnolia only to find the same thing -- stopped traffic. When I turned on the radio I heard it was backed up all the way to Imperial in Anaheim.
Just then I had this great plan! I drove back over the hill to the 15 and went back up to Limonite and over to Van Buren -- it took me 15 minutes to get home. I don't know why that never occurred to me earlier, but it worked great.
There was a Sigalert just before Pierce st. A semi truck rolled over, there was fire and another car involved. That was before 1pm, and it's now past 8pm and the lanes are still closed.
if you watch carefully you'll see him enter the frame, do a bit of the Thriller dance, then walk away.
It's incredible!
Got a new (factory) seat, bed liner, then tinted the windows because the heat is unbearable in this truck. Even with the A/C on high, I never can get cool with the sun beating down on my neck and shoulders. The tint did the trick -- I was nice & comfy driving home from work yesterday. I just wish it didn't look like such a teenager's truck :(
Now I just need to get a passenger seat belt and some carpet and the truck is done. Then I can sell it and buy a moped.
this is for Jackie -- who thought the 1984 photo was real.
Thanks Wendy & Robbie for my new Nabaztag bunny. He does lots of things (reads emails, tells me the weather, reads the news, wakes me up.. He's weird :)
After a bout with diarrhea, Andy became constipated. Yes, the poor lad couldn't go for 3 days. Then it happend, and it was HUGE!
Way to go, Andy!
