Default Suuuuuuuck......

got up this morning with plans of hitting the junkyard for drivers side window assembly and some misc stoof, finding someone to sell me some 'peel' rivets, getting a new cell phone and looking for bigger sway bar brackets.
got out in the garage, packed my toolbox with metric sockets/wrenches and the mikita drill for drilling out the rivets on the window/door assembly at the junkyard.
got in the car and it started sprinkling. by the time i got down to binghamton it was raining like a bastard, so scratch the junkyard.
went to the chevy dealer, told them i needed 'peel' rivets. they guy looked me like i had a 3rd eye sticking out of my forehead. we finally found what i was looking for and i told him i need 8. he then tells me they are 1.85$ EACH. apparently he thought that was as nuts as i did and gave me a MUCH better price for them.
went to a muffler shop looking for 3" U-bolts because my 2.8L Berlinetta didnt come with a rear sway bar. i picked one up awhile ago but never installed it. i had also since installed a moser 9" rear and it has 3" axle tubes, which, the stock rear sway bar U-bolts dont fit around. anyway, the muffler shop told me they got the U-bolts but not the larger brackets that fit on the bottom side of the sway bar. so. i dunno, i hate wasting money and i have a buddy that wants to sell me his 1" spohn sway bar and hardware off his 3rd gen because he upgraded to something else, so i might just point my wallet in that direction.
then i went to AT&T cellphone store in the mall and found out i cant trade my phone in towards another one until mid-August.
1 hour after i get back home, changed into sweats and get settled. it stops raining.
so. i spent about 3 hours running around making 1/2 a dozen stops and all i got to show for it is 8 rivets.
google says its gonna rain again tomorrow but i think thurs. is lookin doable.
oh well. coulda been worse, amrite?

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

Yeah shit usually happens to me like that. Only it involves trying to find a place with my wife giving the directions and next thing you know I am pissed the fuck off but we get there eventually. LOL
