Where I've been...

I know I haven't been around as much as I used to and I'm sure most of you are wondering why... Actually, now that I look at it. I'm wondering where the other mods have been too...

Anywho...

As some of you know I started a new job about a month ago. Since I have started it I have been working all these crazy shifts to get all my training in as soon as possible. Well I'm pretty much done with my training so now I'm working mad overtime and making some damn good money. The only training I have left is some midnight shifts next week and then I'll only have one day off a week but on call 24/7... Because of all this I haven't been online for anything near as much as I used to be. And I'm assuming I won't be on anymore than I have been in the last month anytime soon...

As for the Talon... It is so damn close to being finished that it's killing me. However with no time to even be online I certainly don't have any time to work on it either. So for now I'm going to have my one friend finish up the wiring on it for me and I'm just gonna pay him some cash to do it for me. Of course I know it'll be done right since he did his and did everything perfect on the car. So hopefully soon he'll get my car into his shop and get it finished up for me...

I'm wondering where everyone else is though. I haven't talked to Dustin or Jason in quite a while. Have they been MIA just as long as I have?

Pretty much. Jay is on every now and then but it's just a post or 2. Dustins been MIA over here for awhile now. It feels like [to me] that the "mod duties" aren't really being done. We have what, 4 mods and nothings been done. It has been slow in general here, but it seems like even the small stuff has not been taken care of. There were quadrupole posts that werent being deleted and stuff to move that wasn't. Like the 01 Eclipse GT idle problem in the problem diagnosis that's in the wrong section AND double posted. Maybe it's just me because I have this and a couple other windows open all day and I see it all the time.

I get one day off a week as of right now and on that day I'm usually busy doing laundry, cleaning the apt, etc... It kinda sucks trying to find time to do things that actually take time anymore.

I think after a few months of this I'll try to cut back on the hours some. However right now I am able to about 60 hours a week so I am taking it while I can. The paychecks for it are straight up amazing and well worth it.

Yeah, I've been in and around a couple days a week but I've been slacking like hell. I realized this I suppose around a week ago and have been contemplating what to do about it... things are in the works to correct this problem. You'll all see in a couple days.

I was at a concert Friday night and some Gweddo was hitting on everything at the bar. I was getting drinks and he's like "Does that bracelet say I love bOObies? That's awesome... I would have like 8."

I'm like my arms would be full. You can never love enough bOObies.
