Sitting on the front porch editing some photos from the weekend, enjoying the sunshine and my day off. Vince is still crashed out on the sofa – he came down from Van for a Nissan meet yesterday and Patrick and i kept him up late eating bottemless riblets and playing billards. I don’t know how he’s still sleeping, it’s far from quiet around here. Between Christian and i creaking around the house this morning (this house is *so* noisy), the neighbors pounding and sawing and sanding something in their front yard, garbage trucks rolling by more often than should be neccessary, and my infernal typing in the room next door, well… he must be a really sound sleeper. So i’ve moved out to the front porch (wireless internet is so neato).

We actually had two Nissan meetups yesterday, one down in southcenter (that i have pics from here) arranged by the Maxima guys, and then later in the evening we rolled to lynnwood to cross paths with the 240sx-heavy crew from NWN. I didn’t get to wash my car beforehand, as i spent the morning changing the oil and checking out the Sentra for Justin – he’s going to pick it up today. Actually, i’m going to head up to Stanwood to put tires on the truck at the shop where he works, and then bring him home with me to pick up the car. Anyway, both meets were good, pretty laid back, but it’s nearing the end of the season. It was also an unexpected sunny day after a couple weeks of dreary ones, so i don’t think anyone expected it would be a nice enough day to come out for a meet.

Jason stopped by yesterday to pick up a key, drop off a few things, and then is headed to an outdoor concert festival in nevada for the rest of the week. He will get back monday, Christian flies to Munich on sunday, Mom and Dad get here for a week sunday… the b&b is booked solid this month! ;) I’m going to miss having Chrisitan around – he wasn’t here very long, and i’ve been working so much that i haven’t really seen him during these four short months other than in passing. I’m pretty bummed that i went to so much work to help him move here and then didn’t really get any quality time with him, and now it’s too late. And he’ll be a hemisphere away again for who knows how long. At least i have someone to stay with in europe again – but it’s going to be awhile, as i still haven’t paid for the last trip…

On a family note, everyone’s thoughts and prayers are with my Grama Polly today as she heads to the hospital for examination, to determine if she needs another heart surgery. I hope her news is good today.

The sentra is sold! And i was able to hook up my friend Justin with a good deal. And get some nice tires for the truck. Excellent.

Seven emails about the sentra already, and one cash offer sight unseen!

Craigslist is amazing. I posted my Sentra for sale a couple hours ago, and already i have three emails from people interesting in seeing it. I figured it’d take a week or so to sell it… what a surprise! Maybe i should be asking more… It’d be very cool to sell it, as i really need the money to shop for truck tires – those things are freakin bald and it’s a little scary in all this rain we’ve been having lately. I’ve got two cars that don’t drive in the rain and i live in, uh, … Seattle. Yeah.

Work is quiet so far today, a nice break. And it’s almost time to go pull a box out of the freezer and transfer it to the microwave for 6 minutes of modern miracle food preparation.

They’ve got Adam West (the original tv batman) advertising some MLM scam on tv now. It’s pretty bad. The worst part is he makes a batman joke at the end… terrible. Makes me feel bad for him…

Okay, that’s the fourth email about the car. Craigslist rules.

Stopped at Danielle’s apt to check on her cat, Ferris. He’s always so happy to see me. It’s nice to be needed… and even nicer to be appreciated.
