you're right krischelle, i don't post nearly enough...

and right now my hands hurt so much i barely CAN type. yesterday i was having trouble holding a fork trying to eat lunch (eggs, rice, furikake and shoyu)and kept dropping shit on the floor. i'm amused at how little i normally use my hands such that a few days straight of heavy yardwork (including busting a sidewalk with a sledgehammer and balancing 20ft. up in a mango tree with a pole saw) can make my hands, forearms and shoulders so WEAK. i gotta start mixin' up the jobs some...maybe do heavy work like every other day or just a few hours a day or something.

oh well. it's good for the soul (and the wallet, haha, mom's paying me to fix the house).

just took a blow to the credit card...ordered the more expensive parts for this new raimifix. i decided that if i'm going to do it, i'm gonna do it goddamn RIGHT. unfortunately that means replacing a lot of shady parts that are impossible to get to under normal circumstances....but since i have my car in pieces already, i might as well bite the bullet, spend the money, and do it right. gettin' an aftermarket clutch, too. a Hays street clutch...cost a pretty penny but i hear it's a powerful little thing, definitely outperforms normal clutches...and has the potential to be the last clutch this car needs...so it made sense to spend the money. beyond that, all these little pieces seem to have added up to a fortune. ugh. be psyched to get 'er back together again, though. better than before!

oh and i nailed my thumb with a hammer yesterday...TWICE. that bitch hurts.

gonna go on a bellhousing hunt tomorrow. one guy said he might be able to fix mine...so i'm gonna go talk to him. another guy said he has one THINKS might fit...so i'm gonna go talk to HIM. this is going to be interesting jumping on a bus with a flywheel and a bellhousing...heavy shit. i have to get the flywheel resurfaced...well, not HAVE to, but it's what you do when you put in a new clutch.

enough about the car.

was researching knee injuries and i'm pretty sure it's the medial meniscus in my right knee. 2-3 weeks rest (already passed 2 weeks on saturday) and strengthening/stretching. should be fine. i can tell it's weak but that could also be because i've stayed off it lately. and my calf is tight because of probably the same reason...bah. such a pain in the ass when you wanna run and you can feel a muscle just begging you to stop (threatening cramping). fuckin' bitchass muscles.

i like my life.

for now......
