THE SLACKER THREAD

[Good Times]

* replace wheel bearings (driver / passenger)
* repack grease in the cv boots cuz it decided to spew its guts out a few weeks ago
* alignment... ugh
* repair headlamp housing and mounting tabs
* repair exhaust hanger (it broke)
* repair o2 sensor (it broke when the exhaust hanger broke)
* add windshield wiper fluid container and connect all of the wiring/tubing so it works
* repair airbag (it's not connected - then again maybe I don't need to connect it eh)
* repair any damaged wiring harnesses from the last trip (washboards can do a number on the most random crap!)

I have everything I need to fix everything but I'm just "lazy" or rather no time to work on it. Maybe tomorrow seriously!

Oh yeah you have 5. Hell if I had five I'd be in a coma, on the couch and about 400 pounds. Actually that doesn't sound half bad. I haven't been able to just chill for a while. Well I did address one door and raced my bike tonight. One day at a time.

I'd be better about doing stuff if I weren't on the internet telling people about all the things I wasn't getting done...


I need to regear, tranny cooler, BudBuilts, Swaybar disco's, finish up the welding on the rear bumper, order a spare tire/rim, replace the u-joints... I've got a list, just no $$$$ or time...

I'm double majoring in Facebook and procrastination with a minor in web-wheeling...

I started on my list tonight. I was overdue for an oil change, that is now done. I also cleaned up and repainted the rear control arms, shocks and rear diff after Death Valley sandblasted it all.



Still remaining on the list are:

-sand and repaint rock sliders
-install HID ballasts and bulbs into my Hella Micro DE fog lights
-change the front & rear diff fluids, xfer case and transmission fluids with synthetic
-complete clay bar, polish and wax detail

non-car related includes:
-replace flickering kitchen flourescent light
-finish my backyard sprinkler system (install three new electric solenoid valves to replace leaking ones and three pressure reducers for drip, plus running the drip lines
-trim out windows in house. (sheetrock window surrounds aren't cutting it anymore)
-cut down two medium-sized liquid amber trees, one medium aspen tree and one small aspen tree

The house list is infinitely long, but those will cover the next five months or so.

As long as Mike's throwing up a pic..Forget my making a list man, I'm a newborn-father taking care of a 90 year old w/ Parkinson's.

I live in sheer denial, you hear that sheer de ni al of all I need to play catch up on, let alone the "Honey-Do List". Leave it all be and just go out for a quick bike ride is my motto right now.

When I can get more than 5 hours of sleep in any given night I'll worry about not slacking. Besides, I have my "Helper" to go tearing through my school/work bag for me apparently. MMM, drool all over my supplies, jersey, and hoodie..


Look at that guilty smile and laughter..I wouldn't trade this for the world.
