Im bout gettin ill over it. And the rim shop cant manage to repaint my new rim without some issues. 1st time, from the wreck, there was paint runs all on the rim. 2nd time when they mounted the tire onto the rim, they failed to use an adequate amount of lube and scratched the paint off the lip of the rim. So now they have that rim...AGAIN! Im gettin really pi$$ed over this now. Too much $hyt, not enough time. Hmmmm anyone wanna help me here????  This is beyond outta control now. Im totally stressed here. Got a new job, having marriage problems...GAWD what NEXT?????? 
I hate it that you are having so many problems. Gosh! I feel your pain though, I got laid off from work about a month ago, but I really can't complain. We are all having a blast, just having to do everything on the cheap ya know.
As for the car - just remember that this sort of crap happens. Over and over! I guess it has happened to us all more than once.
Like Hector said, it will get better.

I can only hope they DO get better. Now Im gona go to drivin school for that stupid ticket. Whats so bad about it, If i had told him before he went back to his car that Id never had a ticket before, and that my dad used to be a cop...i woulda got off with a warnin. UGH!!!! So anyways...life rolls forward, and the pages turn. Wonder what my next chapter is gonna be like...Why cant i just go to the end to see how its gonna turn out, that way i know if its worth it to keep reading???? Christ this is not good...

DDCC is awesome. You'll love it.  Wait, no, it sucks. I'd rather cut my face off with a dull, rusty butter knife then sit through 10 minutes of that 8 hour hell.

Well hoping I can make it down for the meet......going to Mall of America over 4th of July weekend (a little get away for Kim and I) and then the next weekend going to Morton IL to get S/C, TB, UIM, LIM installed, and tuning done on Kim's Grand Am. If I can't make it would anybody want to meet in August?

Well, to be honest, that might work out best for us anyway. That would give me time to work awhile at a new job and be able to ask for that time off. Without some manager giving me that look, you know that look. God! I hate that look. Anyway, we will see how it goes.
I turned in a resume at a place in Tupelo that does resturant equipment repairs and stuff like that, so it would put me in a position that I would most likely have to work weekends and all that.

Honestly, the farther towards the end of summer is best for me. I need to find out when school starts back, but it's usually a couple weeks into August.
