I think I've lost it. The drive, the ambition, the insane goals of overhauling a 4x4 in less
than a week. Whats happened to me?

I've become consumed with lawn care, yard work, home remodeling projects... paying off bills
and budgeting every dime.

I bought a riding lawn mower!!! (used, for a good deal however) But for 7 years I catagorically
refused to buy one of those because I didn;t want to turn into Mr Jones and the green thumb
bastard from hell, with the perfect felt lawn, snubbing hose nose at everone else with
dandelions in their yard.

What happened to the young rogue screwball doing engine swaps in under a week, with no sleep,
and not knowing what the hell he was getting into? Wha' the hell happened to the guy who
thought he could fix it all with a stick of bubble gun and some bailing wire?

I got promoted, I got transfered, I got stuffed in a dead end 9-5... I got morgages on homes, I
got stiffness in mah bones!!

THIS IS BULLSHIT!! Since when did I care about proper lawn fertilization!? When did I start
giving a damn if I had up to date stylish kitchen appliances!!!

Its time I threw off the yolk of suburbian residental slavery and got filthy under a truck. I
need to eat some grease, bust some knuckles... fix an old beater 4x4,CRANK SOME TUNES!!! HIT
THE ROAD!! Get back on the highway!!! Run some compact blue cars off the road!!! Drive in
some mud!!!

You think I've been nuts before?

AH'M JUST GETTIN' WARMED UP!!!!!
