Once again i've not posted an entry in some time. Life as usual has been quite boring, but there are a few things i think i can remark on this time. My roommates and I had a Halloween party the weekend before the 31st, it was ok. the best part was the fire in the backyard. I was pretty much the only person helping to keep the fire going, but people came and went from the fire so i had people to talk to atleast. luckily brad (aka bradams, brad adams) and stan duttlinger (+wife) showed up to keep me company. the rest of the people who showed were just wannabe drunks drinking things they don't like while acting like they love it.
I bought a second car, a 2000 honda accord. it's pretty much exactly what i need, good gas mileage and something to drive around town and back and forth to work so i dont put miles on the Trans Am. too bad it's an automatic :\
As far as my spare time, i've been playing World of Warcraft still. it's a good addiction to waste so many hours of spare time.
The highlight of the past couple months is when i was at Ops (a pizza restaurant) the waitress there gave me her number when i went up to pay. wierd thing was i didnt initiate the conversation...i'm still trying to get ahold of her to go on a first date. i don't know anything about her yet. we'll see, i hope.

Yesterday i went to an In Flames concert in jacksonville :)
some crappy band, evergreen and throwdown opened for them. evergreen was ok, but the other two were fucking terrible. In Flames wasnt as good as i was hoping but still good. I went with one of my roommates, but he's not much into metal. i was worried the whole time he didn't absolutely hate it but he said he had an ok time.

Once again i'm updating, but sadly there isn't much to talk about this time. Work has been going ok, i've been able to get out of a lot of it and spending less time at work is always a good thing. I'm still in search of a new car, been rather lazy about it the last few days. perhaps i can go out this weekend and look at some more car lots again. so unmotivated. My roommate is in the process of buying an '02 nissan frontier, so he can get rid of the p.o.s. car he has now, thats about to explode every time he drives it.
other then that...i cant find anything to talk about.
bored.

Been looking for another car lately. haven't found anything that's really fit what i want. Of course i think i'm going to have to spend alot more then i want to, to get a car i'd be happy with. I wish i could just get a crappy car and be happy.
As far as WoW goes...
The guild has been doing pretty good, we've killed Ragnaros and Onyxia now. hopefully soon we can do Onyxia without the alliance.
well, until later.

I finally got my car back a couple days ago. they did a wonderful job and i am quite happy with it. makes me really happy i have insurance that covered the accident because the total bill came close to $2500, of which i needed to only pay a $500 deductible. I even took the first step to getting another car as a drive around town/back and forth to work vehicle. I now have the loan check in my possession and i'm ready to start my search...
Work is going pretty well now that i'm senior in rate qualified. if there is no work to be done in the office, i'm not there. no more 7-4 days. now i think i'll get away with working less then 30 hours every week. only thing that sucks is now we are required to PT 3 times a week with the command.
Well, thats about it for now.

*gasp*
I said i'd try to update more, so here i go.
My car is still in the shop, they said they wont get it out until next week sometime, right now they are waiting on parts. Tomorrow i start work again, no more vacation :\. I'm hoping work wont suck as much as i think it will. as long as i dont have to stay in the office that much each week i'll be happy. if i'm at 30 hours a week or less i'll consider that a victory.
Last night i saw Slither and V for Vendetta. slither was good, in the context that it was a b-movie spoof type film. the classic meteor falls to earth and aliens take people over storyline. V for Vendetta was actually suprisingly good. when i had seen the preview i thought it wouldnt be very good but it ended up being quite enjoyable. if you have ever read the books '1984' or 'farenheit 451' you'd appreciate this movie. I also bought the movie Fight Club. i still dont understand why it's taken me so long to buy this movie...since it's my favorite.
Just so everyone knows (not that there are that many that read this journal) my website is still up at www.laekoth.com any comments are welcome. thanks again to 021414 (a girl of many names) (http://www.aporre.com/).

Well, finally decided to update this thing. I know it's been months since my last update, and there is really too much to catch up on. I'll probably keep this short and simple. As you can tell, i'm back from sea, and now living in my own house. Recently i've had a roommate move in to help split the cost/etc. Couple of weeks ago I hit a deer with my car. Damaged the front driver's side corner. Looks worse then it was because it took off alot of paint, and messed the headlight up so it wouldnt go down anymore. Last Monday i took it in to get repaired, hopefully i'll have it back by the end of the week. Right now i'm sitting home alone with no way to get around really. My roommate is home visiting family and friends and so are most of my co-workers. I don't have any local friends so i've been playing alot of World of Warcraft lately. If you are interested in that kind of thing my guild's website is www.wicked-sacred.com. Well, that's enough for now. Hopefully i'll keep this up to date now.

| update on my car |
[11 Mar 2005|09:50pm] |

well, the car is at the shop and waiting to be tuned. no more problems with the car, just the software the guy needs to program the car's computer for the tune. i guess the tech support guy for the software is working on the problem and until he fixes it the car cant be tuned.
|
|
| got the car back today |
[04 Mar 2005|07:18pm] |
|
but...its not tuned yet, but its running. reason its not tuned is there are a few wires that are too close to the turbos and have to be moved before it can go on the dyno to be tuned. so hopefully this happens soon...getting anxious

I've been away from the internet for awhile. my life has been pretty busy lately, for a change. i've moved out of the barracks and into the house i'm going to buy from a co-worker thats leaving to work in texas. so all my stuff is in boxes and until yesterday i didnt even have a place for my computer to sit. I just got dsl hooked up and pretty soon i plan on posting the pictures i took during the install of my twin turbo kit on my trans am. the car still isnt running though. it needs to go down and get tuned. hopefully the car will get taken down there tomorrow.

mon 14th: oil pan gasket, header gaskets coming in. need to order fuel injectors.
tue 15th: i should be able to move all my stuff out of my barracks room and into Cowling's old house. I should also be getting the oil pan for my car.
wed 16th: small chance of actually starting on my car, most likely will have to wait till the weekend. should be able to check out of the barracks for good, and thus start getting money for living off base.
