um....that curb jumped out at me, i swear

Holy shite...get a knock on my door at like 7.45 this morning...it's my Dad, "Com'on, we need new tires on the truck", "What you do, blow one out?", "No, but we've got cords showing". Wonderful....time to finally get soem new tires and get down to the ground a lil' more. The front inside of the tires were worn...bad...cords showing on both. Get down to the tire shop and find a good sized tire...a little smaller then what I was actually looking for, but it's got a nice tread and sidewall look...and since my Dad was paying, and those were the tires he wanted, those were the tires we got, lol. Stock size is 225/70R15, maybe it's only a 220...something, forget right off hand...but we slapped some 205/55R15's on the front only...While the section width is smaller, the tread width is wider as the shoulders are fairly squared off. The tire looks a little too small, espically comapred to the back tires, but it doesn't look THAT bad. Here soon we'll replace the rears with a smaller tire as well...probably a wider, 235/50R15 or something...a tire slightly larger then the fronts to keep the coll rake we've got now. The new tires have brought the front down an additional 1", actually 1.25" on the LF, lol. That's a lot when you get closer and closer to the ground. Also wanted to get an aligment done, but the truck wouldn't go onto the rack...it was getting high centered, and this was before the new tires, lol. So tomorrow I'll have to go down to a shop with a lower lift...lets just hope it's a lot lower.

Also, I should be starting back at my old job here pretty soon. The Engineer called me and asked if I wanted to work...since I've got bills (just a cell phone, but still) and there are still things I want to buy...I went ahead and took the job. I'll be almost be making more on straight pay then I was before with OT...so that's cool. I almost hate to admit it, but I kinda missed the job...I liked the routine of getting up and going to sleep at certain times. As much as I love not having a job, I do like having money...lol, so wahttaugonnado? Maybe now I can finally get me a '64-67 Conti convert...hmmmmmmm.......

Better watch out for those coke cans....I've got only ~4" of front valance clearance now...kick ass.
