well today could have gone better. Woke up all excited hoping that today was the day. around lunch I called to check up on it and found out that they did finish the air-ride system and said it looks cool as shit laid out. Unfortunatly their drive up lift broke a cable this morning which was needed to install the sub frame connectors which was all they had left to do. So they are hoping to get the cable on monday and have the stang done tues/wed.

While that was a bit disappointing it wasn't that big of a deal. few more days, no big deal really but then this afternoon I got sick again. After throwing nearly constantly for 8 hrs I finallly decided to go to the er, now typing this from my hospital room. The ER was slow to get stuff done tonight being busy on a friday night but thankfully the dr's and nurses were better then last time. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to go through this crap only to have a dr say that all the tests came up fine and he thinks your a drug addict there for the drugs.... Hard enough dealing with this shit only to have that crap thrown in your face.

I did get my porter cable and all the goodies to go for it but didn't get a chance to look at them yet.

Hopefully I will be feeling better by then and ready to take it for a long drive.

In other good news though I am hoping to see a pic of the steering wheel redline leathers is wrapping fer me. Can't wait to see it, not as bad as the air-ride but ya know...

been to 3 Gi specialists including a 3 yr work up at the mayo clinic which is supposed to be the best/brightest. Can't tell you how disaapointing it was to have the first 2 give up saying they didn't know what else to test and that maybe I should try mayo. Went to mayo and then was 3x as disappointed to hear them say they didn't know either and its probably something I will have to learn to live with. Been scoped from top to bottom literally with countless endoscopies, colonoscopies and even and encapsullated endoscopy where I swallowed a pill with a camera in it. They took out my gall bladder and appendix saying it would fix it and it made it worse. I use to keep a shoebox full of all my old perscription bottles just so I could keep track of what I had taken and what didn't work. I am extremely sensative to lactose and if you didn't know it %90 of pills have lactose in them as a filler/binder. So that means most of the medicine they have given me, actually made me sicker. Taken countless tests and hoped to fail them all just to figure it out. I realized how messed up I had become about 2 yrs ago when the transport person at the hospital took me down to a test for some kind of cancer. As he walked off he wished me luck and it was at that point I could not figure out if that meant good luck they find out whats wrong and its cancer or good luck you don't have cancer............

I gave up looking for what it was and hoping it could be fixed years ago as I was just tired of the disappointment. I honestly do not like the person I have become from this but its not up to me. I use to be an optimist, did high school mentoring at my job and even had 4 different people thank me and tell me that I was the dude that convinced them to do more with their lives and go back to school. Use to say that if you didn't like something about yourself to change it. Now I say to keep your expectations down and you will not be as disappointed.

But it is what it is, I just deal with it. I would say I take it day-by-day but its closer to hour-by-hour. I just never know when what I think is a good day will suddenly go bad. Thankfully I have a great family that I can lean on when i need it, they are a real blessing that I am thankfull for.

Thanks for the thoughts and prayers fellas

and hopefully eventually a turbo, kick ass paint job. That is the fun of pickin a car that you decided you will never sell. When I first got it I thought that I wanted to make a show car out of it. I changed that thought last year when I realized I didn't want a show car but a show stopper. It doesn't get out on rainy days but then again it isn't going to be a trailer queen ever either.


- thanks fellas feelin better already but then it could be the dilauded talkin to me.....

its because you're car isnt quite there yet..... its called a broken heart. ... science can't test for it. and the only cure is rough, anonymous sex with countless women.


trust me, once the car is running top notch, you'll be cured.

broken heart now that might be a bit far. Hell even with half the interior out, no door panels or trunk liners every time I get in that car I fell like I am 18 again and the car is new. Funny I turned 36 last month so I have been addicted to this car and in an affair with it for half my life now. now the random sex with multiple women who would turn that down here except maybe justin?
