Big change going back and forth between the work truck and the Monte. Fun picking out the differences, though. I'd never want the truck for myself, the gas alone is a killer. Plus, I'm really just not a truck guy. Cars are more fun. Trucks go more places, but you feel the acceleration in a car. On the other hand, the work truck has Florida plates, which is like a license to drive like an asshole.

Eh, if I bought a truck, it'd be a Toyota.

New stereo deck in the car makes a huge difference. Never thought I'd have to turn the bass down with factory speakers, but I get too much distortion on some of the mildest stuff. Actually, the Birthday Massacre has been some of the hardest on the bass. Even Type O can be turned up a step higher. The clarity kicks ass, though. I love Pioneer. I just need to get the Infinity speakers I want and everything will be great.

Our local grocery store still has the Sam Adams Octoberfest on the shelves. At least, they did this afternoon. I bought four six packs. I'm not obsessing.

Snyders of Hanover makes peanut butter pretzel sandwiches covered in chocolate. If you'd ever wanted to watch two atheists seriously consider the possibility of a loving god, there it was. Of course, we both realized the the use of Hershey's chocolate discounted that, and that someone in product development was just really, really brilliant.

Ok, so, sad note, I met a kitten during PT last week. He was all black, adorable, loved people, really sweet, etc. Followed us for well over a mile. Still living with the parents, who would've killed me for bringing him home, I didn't do anything except be nice, like I do with all cats. One of the guys put him in a fenced yard and then ran so that he wouldn't follow us any further. Now, we walk that route every day, so I'm confident that he didn't get hit by a car, which was my biggest concern. Still, I wonder if one of the locals adopted him and gave him a good home, or what. If I'd known he was going to be that clingy, I would have taken him to a house that I happen to know a girl from one of the local liquor stores lives. But that was pretty close to where he started following, over a mile from where we tried to ditch him. If I could apply half the concern I have for cats to other people, I probably wouldn't be as lonely as I am.

I should have been in bed a while ago. I don't have a lot of confidence that the internet pays much more attention to me than real life people, anyway.

Edit: my friend wants me to join the atheist nexus so that I can sign in to the metalhead thread and find the metal girlfriend he wishes he had. I have mixed feelings about this.
