Zip Bang Wheeeee!

Ok I don't know where I got that title I really couldn't think of anything.

Ok so first things first. This weekend rocked. One party I was supposed to go to got cancelled which turned out well because instead of partying friday night we partied (with fewer people of course) on Thursday. Played some frisbee and did some swimming. I love swimming! So then Friday night I did the Pub Crawl with Val. You can read about the hi-jinks on her live journal. I didn't realize how drunk I was till the next day. I remember vaguely going to the wawa for hoagies and complaining about the stupid touch screen order machine and how no one talks to anyone anymore. I also realized that from wawa back to Vals house I don't remember much, I must have been almost totally incoherent. Oh I also found out that I have another reader Jen. With all these readers (must be like 5 now) I need to start watching what I type. My wierd streams of thought might make people think I'm a lunatic.

Went to my friend Matt's parents house on Sunday to work on his dad's Cobra Kit Car. This has become a Sunday ritual. Free donuts, lunch and dinner for me. I love it, no cooking and a day of wrenching on a performance vehicle. Here are two links if anyones interested in actually seeing the beast. The first one here is just some pics. The second one here is a video of the first time we started the engine. We are getting so close to the road test I can feel it. I got most of the wiring complete and ready for the road test. The only few things that need to be worked out are the clutch cable bracket, throttle cable bracket some suspension tuning and bolting the seats and mounting some interior panels. Now that I write it out it seems like more than I had thought. If we are lucky we might be able to test it next weekend. I hope so... I'm running out of time because.....

I got an email this morning about the DC job. It seems my contact there is going to make me an offer as soon as I call him. Unfortunately I won't be able to do that until at least lunch time. I was getting really worried about recieving an offer. Now I'm worrying so much more. I hope they can offer me enough money so that I can afford to live there and actually take the job. However most worries are good worries. Where am I going to find an apt, if I'm going to keep my truck, how am I going to move all my crap down there, am I going to like it in the city... oh man I'm getting excited. Ok can't get too excited because I still don't have anything concrete yet but... oh my god I need to get out of this job so bad I can't help it.

Ok thats all for now stay tuned...
