Actually, every place can be.

I woke up at 7am today. How can I stop adulting?

Was productive though, went to the Starbucks on the other side of town, and I must say, I'm in love with the new exhaust and my new tires are amazing.

What exhaust and tires? I could use starbucks right now..

Last time ranting about stupid call... the guys fucked up on the other end and its getting close to wrapping up my shift. Guess this is where I'm happy to be hourly - once I'm done, I'm done! The next rotation can finish up once they fix whatever issue they are having.

Ain't that the truth.

My favorite title of all time that I held was "Fellow, IT Operations". It was given to be because I was technical but also a manager of people. I asked my manager if the career path was:

Fellow->Good Fellow->Jolly Good Fellow

I really wanted the have a business card that said "Jolly Good Fellow" but my boss wasn't amused. They changed the titles again in about 6 months.

I'm having a dilemma of looking into buying an 2013 FRS, or waiting for the 2017 one or just move on to something like a Porsche Cayman S :/

Side rant:

Booked a room in Costa Mesa a week ago. Found a better rate two days later so I cancled and rebooked through Hotels.com. Caused some confusion as I think they messed it up, but they said they found my room when I called earlier in the day to let them know I was arriving very late. I however booked a King bed and was given two twins. Went back to the lobby and told since its the same price and its only based on availability at time of check in not guaranteed you get your preference. That would be only a minor annoyance if our other friend hadn't booked at 10PM last night and checked in after we did making her story BS.

Bet it was since I went through a 3rd party site but still crappy that they would lie trying to hide behind the terms of the booking agreement.

I was there for it.

So, I finally got the whole steering gear in the Acura all wrapped up. Leak checked, bled... All perfect!

Engine mounts are blown out. Noticed it when I fired it up with the hood raised. Even on blocks with no wheels, when I put it in gear to test the gear selector cable, the whole schmeer went "BA-BUMP!"

damn. more work this weekend.

Im trying to check the details on it. if I reply with sarcasm, but he replies to my sarcasm with sarcasm, is it still sarcasm?

Unless its opposite sarcasm, then it counters mine, leaving the net sarcasm total to zero...
