Time for breakfast now, then off to the track.
It's raining a bit here in Whittier too. Probably not like it does in cans ***.

When you guys mentioned rain it unlocked the memory of my dream last night, in which it was raining.

In my dream I traded in my truck for a new expedition. Man those things are nice! But then I started missing my truck.

Well, in a few hours I will be saddling up for my first day working as an EMT. I get to dive into the exciting world of roller derby! Actually, its a lot more interesting that I ever imagined, but maybe the cute girls in spandex shorts is giving me a biased opinion. Who knows..

Anyway! I get to treat bumps, bruises, sprains, and if I'm lucky, a broken bone But those are not to common.

Goodmorning everyone.

Hope you had a safe & memorable weekend.

I spent the weekend helping my neighbors move. I'm so tired! It would've gone much smoother if they had everything packed & ready to go, but they waited until the last minute & was packing boxes as we loaded the trucks. GRR!!! Made for a really long weekend, but atleast the big stuff is moved. Now they can move all the little stuff thier cars.

My name is Marc and I'm an addict

Went over to the painters shop on the way into work today to check up on the '61s progress.
It's getting its final primer wet sand.
As I'm yakking with Joe (the painter) I notice a shortbed dentside sitting against the fence, front end apart, cab stripped.
I asked what was up with it. He replied that the owner was low on funds and it's kind of in limbo.
Then inexplicably, with no room, no time, no money for it, these words came out of my mouth.
"Think he wants to sell it?"
I'll find out said Joe.
Hello, my name is Marc and I'm an addict.
