It's been for EVER since I updated. Sucks not having access to LJ at work.
New stuff: Nothing, really. Sold my 24' car trailer. I never use it, got another offer same as last time, was kicking myself in the ass for not selling it before, so here I am now selling it off. Of course the day I had everyone over to help me clean it out (got used for storage when our water pipe broke and fucked up the basement) and get it ready to go, my truck's check engine light comes on and I notice it's shifting funny. I stopped at AutoZone and had them read/clear it; came up as a shift solenoid or shift solenoid circuit fault. Great. Sent it off to the transmission shop Thursday morning. They spend THREE GOD DAMN WEEKS diagnosing the problem. Finally got it back last friday to the tune of fucking $913.69. My whole plan with the money from the trailer was to pay off a credit card, but that totally fucked that plan up. The leftover from [Trailer - Credit Card] would have been about $800. Figures. Paid off the credit card, but it puts my bank account under what I like to keep in there. Oh well. Next up on the chopping block will be the car once I get everything cleaned out and ready to roll. The sale of that should put me pretty close to paying off the last of my credit card debt. Next after that is house shopping!! ;-)
Other than that, I've been having muscle spasms in my lower back. Once I get them straightened out, I need to check the hours of the gym at my chiropractor's office and see what kind of equipment they have in there. If I had a welder and the ability to use it, I'd buy some square tubing and make a couple of the pieces I'd like to have. I need to strengthen my back muscles to stop this from happening again. The back problems have kept me out of the gym for quite a few weeks now, but I really need to get back into it ASAP.
I took the motorcycle out for the first ride of the year yesterday and it was great. It got a little chilly later on, but it was nice to get out and ride. :-D
Life is still good for the most part. Still single, still spending too much time with Hockey and still wishing my work hours would change. :-P
Holla back if ya miss me. ;-)
