Off to work
 
Work, then home to paint some trim and pull staples out of the wood floor. Said goodbye to an awesome show last night. damn series finale for Warehouse 13...
 
Townhouse hunting... Got an email from the RE agent I was dealing with on the one I wanted to rent. I negotiated a lower rent with the owner, and then someone came behind me and agreed to pay the full asking price. Back to the drawing board... :hissyfit:
 
Seriously? That is so wrong.

I have been working on getting a loan to buy a house.
 
Shit happens. I have a month left before I need to leave where I'm at, so I've got a little more time to spare. I want to give the townhouse lifestyle a spin for a year or so before I consider buying one. Need that garage space!!

Came back from the gym. Lol I hate when people park behind you really close! Some idiot in a Prius did that so I had to reverse into him so I can leave. [emoji23][emoji24]. I have a bumper protector so it's all good

Lol yeah. His plate got bent. I don't feel bad though. I saw marks on his bumper from hitting my protector before hand!
 
Sitting here, tired. I got talked into volunteering for loading for 2 1/2 months. But on the bright side it's a change of pace, the guys there are great, the supervisor treats you like a man instead of dog meat like 90% of them do, guaranteed tons of overtime, and I get a $300 bonus.

Hope I can survive. Probably look like Mr. Universe-era Schwarzenegger when I'm done.
 
Just finished fixing the dd cooling issues

Pricing tie rods and ball joints while searching all the exhaust threads. Muffler is deteriorating on the bottom of the inlet connection and she said it sounded louder. I want it oem quiet.

At the work place...
 
Staring at my monitor, with the appearance that I'm working...

Tinkering with some 3rd party software to resize the boot partition on a VMWare image that I'm playing with. :compu-punch:
 
Pulling the motor in my tb. Almost have everything off. Should have just about everything but the differential done before I head to school.

Update:
Well I got a little bit knocked out of the job. Making good time for not having a book if I do say so myself.

Waiting on a 35mm socket to pull the CV shafts out. Then all that is left to do is a few more connectors and some bell housing bolts.

Bad news... Brakes are gonna need to be replaced before the next inspection. Pads are cracked and missing chunks and the rotors are scratched and rusted.

Will post pictures when I get the motor out. Internet is down at my place so I am stuck on my droid(which is shit BTW).
 
Work and then stopping by Advanced Auto to pick up a couple things for the weekend, then doing nothing, hopefully.
 
Watching Robin Hood Men in Tights on my phone at work. Tough day.
 
Oh the joy jury duty but the good thing is I haven't been called yet out the 2 groups already called. Definitely catching up on threads lol

Nooooooooooo!!!!! I've been selected. Kill me now :hissyfit:

sounds like one busy day :yes:
 
well the sequence of events started when my 4l80 lost 3rd gear. i'd rather take it out with the engine than go from the bottom honestly. Going to rebuild my 4l70 myself, the 4l80 never shifted right, tcc locking was rough as shit, vss has always been way off, so i wasn't surprised when it went. I'll chalk it up to a failed experiment. I'll keep the 4l80 around to rebuild when my 3500 van needs one. previously i had cracked my flexplate, and it chewed up the trans oil pump so I sent the tc to yank to get cut/inspected/rebuilt.

so while i'm at it, the engine has been eating oil for a while now. so getting it taken apart, cylinder hone and new rings, bearings, nothing crazy. probably got 15k-20kmi on this engine (fml). already has a forged rotating assembly, stupid large cam. heads were CNC ported but could use a healthy polishing. getting headers ceramic coated as my engine bay is hot as hell. C6 oil pan conversion while i'm at it. I had the front diff in there not connected to anything for about a year now so i can finally yank that out easily. going to extend the harness that crosses over the intake that feeds the passenger side of the block. might powder coat the accessories, valve covers, etc. wish they made a fast 102rt for ls3 heads sigh...
