buy my car

Busy week. I spent Friday night in Sugar Land, Texas at Gladiator's Gaming Center. I'd been there previously on Wednesday night to play some Battlefield 1942 and I was back for more of the same with some friends from work. Friday night is the lock-in night where from 10 PM until 7 AM there's non-stop gaming, pizza, and lots and lots of killing. There was also lots of dying which I participated in. I'm very good at dying. Killing -- I'm still working on that. We play with a mod called Desert Combat. It's the next best thing to being in Iraq, only you're really in peaceful little Sugar Land in a strip center next to a furniture store in the middle of the night. I was very surprised to learn that it was 3:48 AM the first time someone wondered what time it was. We left just after 4:30 AM. I can now fly jets, a helicopter, and drive tanks. I've also been run over by a coworker who was driving a jeep crazy style. Stupid jeeps.

I'd originally intended to have Garage Sale 2: The Sequel on Saturday. Didn't happen. Instead I went to the Mitsubishi place to get my oil changed and newly broken doorknob mended. I'm not sure why it broke. I like to blame my newfound exercise regimen and how I don't know my own strength. Remember, I broke off the DeLorean's gear shift a few months ago? See. Call me Mr. Kent, please. The replacement is going to cost me around $250 which blows but it's a brand new factory part at least. Yay. Even though the car is still as good as when I bought it, I've decided that I needed to move on and get bigger car, preferrably the Honda Element. Selling the Eclipse is now a high priority. I think a 1998 Eclipse Convertible GS-T (Turbo) with only 81,000 miles on it is a pretty sweet deal. We shall see.

I plan to drive the DeLorean Time Machine if I sell the Eclipse. The Burton / Keaton Batmobile is also an option -- if I can spend some $ to get the friggin' blinking headlight problem fixed. And speaking of the Batmobile... I'm in the process of creating a new parking place for it through clever placement of pond stones. I spent some time over the weekend unclogging all of the drain holes that are in my brick walls so that I could place some underlayment and pond stones around them and improve the drainage of my yard whenever the super heavy rains come. This made me realize that I could use these same stones to create a nice little parking spot somewhere. I'm having a bit of a falling out with the storage place that I'm storing my car at now, anyway, as they're just way too redneck for me. They are so redneck that I was getting sunburn just thinking about them.

Remember I mentioned having a pseudo-girlfriend recently? She's now officially just one of my very best friends. We're part of a close-knit group of super heroes. We sometimes hold an annual banquet if we feel like it. Anyway, here's a photo of her at her best friend's wedding in California looking extremely smoking hot. I will refrain from howling and the cat-calls. However, I would like to close by saying: Rawr.
