keep cool my babies...keep cool

When I don't update for this long it usually means one of two things: I've been super-super busy, or super-super up to nothing. Well, neither is quite true, as I have not been busy, but I have not been not doing anything in the same breath. I got a new play toy...I"m lame, I know, but it's a micro RC car. Gives me something to play with and do in a samll scale to go along with the large scale. Unfortunatly, it's not working anymore...I freaking broke it alredy. My own fault, I was upgrading the wiring from measly 22 gauge to 18 gauge and um, burt through two surface mount something-or-others on the main electronics board....whoops. I'm a dumbass sometimes. So I have to get a new board or something...The Ranchero is no different then it was this time last week....it's just too bloody hot to work out in the shop. Even with a circulation fan 2 feet from me it's just unbearable out there sometimes. That and I ran out of hardener for my bondo....give you a gallon of bondo, but only a half gallons worth of hardener.....wtf is that?

Today was a productive day however...got some new specs for my crappy eyes...I really, REALLY needed new frames. My old ones were a sad sort indeed. Both earpeices broke off and I lost one of them, so I had, belive it or not, a stick of solder used for plumbing. Hey, it worked...also had a lot of electrical tape holding the whole shebang together. Also got a pair of perscribtion sunglasses, so now I can look pimp and still see where I'm going...nice. Ate a an awesome little chinese resturant...just polished off the leftovers...I"ll be going back more often. And the last but not least, I finished a trim panel for my dad's co-workers Camaro's sub box. I'll have to snap some pics, but it looks pretty spiffy, a nice Chevy logo in the middle with flames coming off the sides...all covered in grey suede. Heck yeah, I sure hope the guy likes it. I don't like to brag, but I think I"m getting really good at that custom stuff...lol.
