Back again

Took some time off, I mean from blogging. I was busy before but I got so swamped/stressed/tired I didn’t even have time to complain about it. It’s settled down a bit today so I’ve got some time to think about a few recent events.

1)We “won the lotto ticket”. Well not quite but as our sales guy at the Porsche dealer said it was a pretty good return on a $1000 deposit some 18 months ago. So last night James and I specced out our GT3RS. Green, black wheels, etc… I think we’ll PR/keep it for a short time and flip it. The dealer already wants to buy it off us for 30K over but we shall see just how crazy the market gets by June of next year. I cannot remember a Porsche that has had so much hype/marketing and other BS to make so many people so fiesty and crazy about a car. Only 228 are coming to the US so it is very limited so for now I guess it’s like we got a VIP invite to some flashy party. An expensive one though.

2)Watched a couple of Blu-Ray movies but only Talladega Nights was something I will remember. I had a real laugh and I needed it.

3)I got pounded by customers/vendors this past two weeks bleeding me dry. It was certainly challenging and I’m getting sick and tired of the dishonesty and politics. It’s got to a new level where I think to myself, “I don’t care anymore”. I’m now about half way up the “I don’t care anymore” mountain.

4)We’re doing an Engine swap on our C2. Long story but it’s free so away we go again…

5)I’ve been a shit-head to Joan this past little while as a result of pressure/stress from work. Not happy about it and last weekend it finally came to head. We had a good fight (not good in the sense of nice) and finally talked things over and moved on. She needs my support right now as she’s stressed about her sistser (number 3 sister) and her surgery. I’m going to give it to her no matter how beat up I am from work. And actually this past week has been better than a long time between us so perhaps it was a good thing after all to hash things out.

 6)My mum is coming to visit and I’m pretty excited about that. In the past I’ve been a real dork when she’s come. It’s hard to understand why because I love her to death but somehow I just can’t seem to show it, prove it and end up hurting her in the process by being an idiot.
