What. The. Fuck.

This weekend started out pretty strong...and took a turn for the absolute worst. After spending 10+ hours upside down in my car installing an amplifier yesterday, the huge reward was a blown speaker in the front door (it was already bad, I just had no idea b/c the old unit wasn't driving it hard enough). So upon ripping the door apart today to take a look, figuring out what it was, and doing surgery on it I discovered that my driver side door has some sort of leak and the whole thing is fucked. There's $170 and a ton of work out the door (literally).

Oh, on top of that my wireless card on my computer just decided to stop working - the third one in under a year. I don't know what the hell I do to these things, but I'm done using them. I'm running a cable first chance I get. In fact, instead of buying another card, I bought a step ladder so I can reach the ceiling and run a cable along it.

On the plus side, the amp install did turn out awesome, my mom gave me some fresh tomatoes and peppers from my uncle's garden, I went swimming last night, and I put a new front derailleur on the road bike and tuned it all up. Also, the boss is out until Thurs. this week, so I can pretty much go in as much or little as I want. Oddly enough, I'll probably go in early b/c I'm planning on making a pretty slick antenna and getting started on writing a paper to be published, both of which are pretty exciting.

Alright, time to go do something and probably drink some more champagnes.
