I’m in Southern California

And I’m not really that happy about it. I’m down here just for a few days to take a class for work and I tend to get a little bored while down here (not really into getting drunk and having pissing contests with other mechanics that are down here). The reason for this post is my new friend Sayyara, check it out;

She is a cattle hereder from Azerbaijan and I found here on Kiva.org. If you haven’t heard of  this you should really check it out. The way the thing works is that you LOAN people who are in need some money (like 25 bucks) so that they can buy things that they need to advance their bussiness. I paid off the rest of her new bailing press (whatever the f that is) and now I expect her to pay me back over the next 15 months, without interest of couse. Anyways I gotta go to class now I just really think that this is something that EVERYONE can get behind. At least check out the website
kiva.org

It May Be Time For a New Camera

Some Photographs of Nouns

I have a bunch of pictures of people, places, and things kicking around in my computer. Do you wanna see some of them?

First and foremost it seems that Hilary has melted (or was hit by a shrink-ray);

I am very upset about this and considering contacting “Unsolved Mysteries”.

Next, we grew a frigging giant zucchini. This is pretty much the only thing that the garden produced this year besides a hand full of green beans (possibly magic) and a couple of squash (squashes?).  I am looking to trade said magic beans for a cow if anybody is into it, just leave me a comment and we can work out the where and when.


Pretty sweet, right?

Okay, the real reason for this post is that I just finished a 19 hour week and I’m feeling pretty good about that. I have a rest week coming up next and then two more full months of base. I’m not really sure how everybody else feels about this base training stuff but I end up feeling a little worn out by the end of a “cycle”

Yeah, that kind of worn out. But like I said just a minute ago I’m into a rest week now with not much to do besides fix a few cars and maybe spend a little time working on some arts and crafts.


T-Rex vs. Lilly Flower?


Or maybe just an origami free for all Royal Rumble sorta thing.

Anyways, besides the dealership that I work for having been sold after 40 years under the previous owners, not a lot going on on this end of things. Maybe I’ll have to start selling folded up paper items on ebay for a living, who knows?

Sorry for the recent string of pointless, totally half-assed posts, just kinda killing some time
