i put my 2 weeks in at my call center job. took the job with NAPA in town, so i dont have to commute anymore..
fernando made sure i got the job.. lol. i think i can still make canby too...
with that news, im also getting another toy.
a toyota actually.. a 77 rolla to be exact. has a 2t with anew weber, 5 speed swap, 13in wheels.. its pretty neat.
gonna use my vacation payout to buy it.. should be getting it here in a few weeks. the wife is gonna drive it mostly during the summer, but im lookin at getting it cleaned up a bit more and whatnot.
more to come!
Isn't this Angelinas car? ( i think thats her name)

yeah, it was... erik and her split up and she got that Z car outta the deal..
erik doesnt really drive it all that much, and he didnt want it turned into a circle track car.. so thats where i come into the situation.

well, turned out im not getting that toyota..
didnt get the payout from my vacation like i though it would be, soooo no new toy to play with.
it works out tho.. ill have some cash to buy some stuffs for the datto. it needs a few things now that ive been driving it.
the big GMC needs some shit too, so its not all bad..
more to come...
