Yeah, this dude told me I would get better prepared for W2W racing by playing video games with him, rather than W2W racing. I can't get him to confirm that he's ever driven a car competitively in any capacity. He keeps going on about "I'm an instructor" and how that makes him a special person who deserves special treatment.

Ugh, finally recovering from my Thursday-Friday roller coaster. I got up at my normal time of 6am on Thursday and went to work. I dipped out at noon to go home for lunch and hit the road to Nashville to see a little band from the 90's called Local-H. Get on the tos at 1:30pm and start trucking up I-75. About 3 miles from the 75/24 split icons to a standstill and do the whole stop and go thing for a few miles, get on I-24 west and come to a stop at mile marker 185. Check the news to find out that 24 had been shut down earlier due to a nasty jack-knifed tractor trailer accident earlier in the day. Great. Well it turns out I'm righ where tht happened and traffic was still stopped...because of a truck fire at mile 176 that had westbound lanes shut down. So I chilled for like 40mkn in one spot before we moved up like .5 mile and stopp again. Took me about two hours just to get through Chattanooga, fun. Finally get to Nashville with time to spare before the show. I decided to hit up Flying Saucer for some tasty beers and headed over to the show. The show rocked the **** out and I got back to my car at 12:34 central time, 1:30 for me. Hit the road back and get home at 5am. I had thought about taking a half day and going to work late, but because I was wired from my choice of "how to stay awake while driving" stuff, I decided that getting any sleep would just make my day go like ****. Solution? Stay up an go to work at 7am. So I did and worked a full day. Finally went to bed around 12 midnight after a small nap and slept for 13 hours after being up almost 40 hours straight. The show was so ******* worth it.

I bought myself a spare miata seat yesterday at the junk yard. Today during work I am busy looking for plans to build me a driving sim setup. I need to figure out where to come up with $250 to buy my G27 and I think I will be set.

She wants a cat, but I swear I'm allergic to them. My bro has one and every time I go to his house my eyes get itchy and watery. Therefore, no cats allowed.
These dogs have only cost money and given grief. I know she loves them and sure sometimes they're fun to have around, but 99.9% of the time I could do without them.
