Just a quick note, I am having difficulty with the internet connection at my house. Should be temporarily fixed this weekend, with a more permanent fix later.

Just when I start go get through some of the shit thats been going on recently, today I go to get something to eat, and find out someone tried to steal my car last night. Door was left open, and I look in and everything is all over the floor. then I see a weird knob on the drivers floor. I pick the knob up and realize its my ignition collar. Look at the ignition switch and the security device is hanging down with a broken key in the slot. So I cant even put my key in to unlock the steering wheel or put it in neutral to unblock the Oldsmobile. This just hasn’t been my year. I think I can fix what is done as long as they didn’t pull the security wires out of the steering column and can get he broken key out of slot. I just had to walk away from it for now. One car in garage and the broken one blocking it in, so I am on foot. Things just need to start working out a little easier. Well, I guess its okay, things don’t look permanently damaged and no windows were broke. Life goes on.

Addition next day:

Fixed the car, seems to be be okay, the security ignition cut of switch isnt quite working right. Failed once, so I turned the key over and it worked. I don’t quite trust it, but we will see how it goes. Will carry tools for a while. But at least it can move on its own now. So, could have been worse.

Put pictures up on the gallery page. They are on the new computer I built for me. I spent time, effort, money, and some tears to get it finished and running. Now I don’t even care to turn it on. I have lost my motivation lately. Maybe it will return someday, who knows.

Here, just don’t feel like doing anything on the site. I have a number of pics to go up, but not today. Anyway, have a good one.

Well, got into my car to head out this evening to find someone broke in and stole my car stereo. The good news is they didn’t seem to damage to much while doing it. I think one of the back doors was left unlocked. Normally the electric locks close everything but one door in the back seat is broken electrically, it works manually, but I honestly don’t do a very good job checking it. They just bent the dash and took it out. I was surprised the plastic could bend that much without breaking. I pulled the radio fuse and see if I can set the dash back tomorrow. At least no glass or obvious plastic broke. All this happened right on the street directly in front of my apartment. Just a shitty day.

ADDITION: A little bit of Karmic justice has happened. Whoever the asshole was that stole my stereo, he left the knob to the stereo behind, it was under the seat. Now it will be a pain in the ass to work, so much stuff is controlled with that button. HA HA
