It's now brighter in the carport at night than during the day. Guess maintenance projects are for night shift now.

I just found out that my 2017 raise is .60 cents per hour. Not terrible but it's the biggest raise we've gotten since 2008, it'll take more than that to get my spending power back to where it was pre-recession.

A 12 oz Coke has 38 grams. If its something like natural jam which has fruit and water as the only listed ingredient, then those sugars are not ADDED and don't count towards that 36 grams. Even stuff like pasta sauce is getting tons of added sugar these days. It's hard to avoid.
Holy crap. A serving of ice cream is only 20 grams of sugar. I can have two servings of ice cream for the same sugar content as a can of coke. I'll enjoy the ice cream more.
Baroness doesn't like it, but I prefer to eat ice cream strait out of the carton. I eat less than if I scoop it into a bowl.
My autocross venue is less than two miles from my house, I can't decide if I should just drive there on Hoosiers or change then on-site.
**do I win the epitome' of "first world problem" yet?
I ran out of anti-seize during a brake job today, and had to jump in one of my spare vehicles to drive 2 miles to get some more. And a Twix bar.

I'm jealous of your restraint. The last time I tried that I ate a half gallon of ice cream standing infront of the freezer. I can't bring ice cream home anymore. If I want it I go out and get one cone.

Ice cream will decompose in my freezer before I finish it. Keep the potato chips away though.

Okay, this time she's not fooling. There are baby giraffe legs hanging out.

I ate three half-gallons of Bryer's (I think? Local company) Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough during a Beavis and Butt-Head Moron-a-thon, once.
This was when I was a teenager and I had a metabolism like those grinders in the Will It Shred videos. Now, I can have a taste of ice cream and feel kinda sick.
(mmm.... raw cookie dough.... homer drool noises )
I can't decide which japanese engine to put in my cold war era eastern block car, and I'm going to an auction in july with the sole purpose of bidding on a Trabant.

I hoped it got halfway out and crawled back in.

If that doesn't work, I can help you get just about any eastern bloc car you want
As far as Japanese engine swap goes: Yamaha R1. Duh!

I'm weird. Don't have a huge sweet tooth. I enjoy it, but it's not compulsive.
Popcorn however... you need a crowbar to to pull that out of my hands. I will eat a large tub of popcorn if you place that in my lap.
I really like some of the newer GM cars but they are forever inaccessible to me because I morally can not own any car with daytime running lights, and I am insulted by a car that locks the doors automatically. What if I want them unlocked? I want power locks on my doors and I want their status to be none of HAL's damn business. And I can't drive a car with DRLs if I am continually pissed off at people who drive with lights on during the daytime.
This IS what is keeping me out of a Sonic RS. The money is there, the will is there, but berk auto-locking doors and berk DRLs.
At least with an STI, I could remove the HID lights and install regular non-shiny happy person headlights and have a decent little car...
