I have a Miata that's white in addition to my Jeep. She's been modified and is track legal for drift racing with roll cage, four point racing safety harnesses and all the carpet taken out, she also has a hard top but I took it off for the summer. She is retired from racing now. If your wife goes all...

Today was an interesting day. I brought Leslie Dent's car with me to work for a rough idle and check engine light. On my lunch break I borrowed a scan tool from Shawn, pulled the codes, hunted down the vacuum leak, fixed the leak and cleared the codes by myself. Also, since the Miata has been stored...

I think her issue was a lack of equalizing medication... :D For those of you who know me IRL and given the fact that I lived in SF for many years and have many LBGT friends you know I don't care about sexual preference but here in Burque people are more sensitive about the issue. I tease one of my g...

The plants only needed trimming on a few leaves, I am really good about keeping up with them. She said they danced with joy after her care and she also sang a bit to them as well. I found this out from Christina after Ms. Cray Cray left... 8O I've been doing a lot of training for work so I've been a...

I posted a brief on facebook but now for the detailed version, last week I had a customer who was late seventies maybe even early eighties and she was awesome. She was the old lady I want to be when I get to be her age. Her car? Fully loaded full on race version with turbo and hood scoop and low gea...

Iolanthe, I still refer to that night I made you laugh so hard as the night I broke the British... :D And you all better come back. Next time around I will be right up the street in a place with a pool so POOL PARTIES!!!! Maybe we should plan one for Bubonicon next year.... (plants evil seed) :twist...

I've decided I'll go but not stay long at the party. Ok, so the Seville turned out to be the STS instead of the SRS version which means top of the line fully loaded with every bell and whistle available. It was clean and beautiful, low mileage just as predicted. HOWEVER, it gets better, turns out it...

Yes, driving any vehicle at all can be dangerous and there is so much texting here in ABQ that I think I felt safer driving in SF. So... I totaled the Nissan Xterra a few weeks back and the Dad had said that the daughter was going to drive his spare car until they figured out something for another c...

HAAHAHAHA!!! Orking.... LKQ is a national network for used, reconditioned and aftermarket parts for automotive. Most insurance companies use LKQ parts because they carry certified parts that are guaranteed under special warranties. Today was also odd. Came in this morning to find that someone had cu...

It was a much needed fun and yet relaxation filled weekend. Friday night I went to a party at my friend's house, Danlo and Lady Tam were there. I brought Moose and he got to run around with his dog buddies. Saturday I hung out with Danlo and Lady Tam again and we started a new jigsaw puzzle and made...

Today was a bit of an odd day. Spent the better part of the day trying to return some more ancient parts I unearthed in the back of the parts shed. I was having a hard time getting Shawn's help but then Adam showed up and he helped me knock them out. Then I had to deal with some parts snafus that ca...

Ok, Av, here we go: So I had a lazy weekend. I ran some errands on Saturday and then just lounged. Sunday, Rigel had a friend over and they were watching some GOT episodes which was cool but I had plans with Lady Tam so I headed down and we both decided we were not feeling like going out so we decid...

Yes Dear, I'll try to get better about it. Today was a long day. Our monthly status meeting was tonight so I booked over 12 hours. I'm exhausted...

Ok, so I am now a month and a half into my new job. I have become a collision estimator rather than a mechanical repair estimator although the two do overlap. I seem to catch a lot of mechanical stuff that other collision estimators miss. I love it. I got a good basic training from the westside loca...

I'm actually trying to resolve a windows stupid 8 recognizing my cameras plural issue. I've tried with three that all use mini dv digital tapes and so far can't get it to download the vid. I may have to take it to a specialty shop and have it converted which is going to be not just a pain in the but...

Thank you Sorus. My Napa outside salesman is slipping me tips and Tuesday he came in and slipped me a card with contact information for a huge shop that is looking for a service writer/parts person and also a tip on when an ad for a parts person for the city of Albuquerque bus fleet is going public....

Ok, so had a very frustrating day. I have some frustrations with work and they don't seem to be getting any better. I don't know how many more times I can tell Mike to stop spitting his tobacco spit in front of the window where the customers can see and how many more times I have to bitch him out fo...

It's tempting! Feel like driving to Albuquerque for Sunday dinner?
