mi juera

this is what i got to replace the blue. it's my first foreign car, but a friend practically gave it to me. she needs a little work, but it's mostly cosmetic, and nothing that's going to be really hard to do. so far she's been fun. we'll see how things go.

sticks and and stones

may break my bones, but i'm going to kick you repeatedly

when life gives you lemons

say "screw the lemons" and bail!

saga of the crapmobile

this is my dad's car, or as i have affectionately referred to it, the crapmobile. it has been a month since i lost the blue and the insurance company has yet to un-ass my money, so I'm still driving the crapmobile. now, don't get me wrong, it's a good little car, it's just not conducive to my lifestyle. i'm 6'2" and 230lbs and i don't really fit in there, the tolerances are so close that i can't have a cup in the cup holder. everyone i work with very much enjoys watching me get in and out. i actually have to get in twice, i have to sit, and then get in. people who see me driving it think it's the most pathetic thing they have ever seen. i have been trying to fix a few things that are wrong with it while i have it (it has over 200,000 miles on it) i figured it's the least i can do. so far i've broke a $200 dollar part while trying to fix something else ($15 at the junk yard). while i'm very grateful to have it, it's driving me crazy. i have a few vehicles in mind that i want to get after my insurance pays out (getting the wagon fixed is priority #1) but until that time me and the crapmobile are getting to know each other quite well.

when life gives you lemons

shut up and eat your damn lemons!

isn't it amazing

how something as simple as a phone call can ruin your day!?

what i learned today

today i learned that when people tell me what kind of car i should get to replace the one i wrecked, it pisses me off!

the blue went down

after almost 8 years and over 120,000 miles i had to let her go. at approximately 1430 hrs on the 5th of may in the year of our lord 2009 she was pronounced a total loss. we had a good run, out of all the women in my life she was one of the ones who stuck around. we had alot of fun times, took out some pretty girls, and did afew things we probably shouldn't have. she was a good car and in the end she did her job and protected me and my brother. i believe that had we been in a lesser car we might not have walked away. i'm gunna miss you, you're my girl Blue!

i miss her sometimes

i ran into my old girlfriend the other day, and then i backed up and ran into her again. i miss her sometimes.

the mohawk stays

so, i gave spike a haircut and decided to leave a mohawk and see how it would look, i sent a few people a picture to see what they think and the concensue seemed to be to shave it. i decided to take him to the cruise night like that to see if anyone said anything. spike stopped traffic! people who were driving by were stopping to ask what kind of dog he was and saying how good he looked, one girl even parked her car and came over just to see spike saying that she wasn't interested in the cars. needless to say spike liked the attention, so the mohawk stays!

what i learned today

today i learned that when pretty girls shoot assault rifels there butts jiggle.

the only white guy

a couple of girls i work with invited me to come with them to a country bar (what was i doing in a country bar you ask? might i refer you to the first sentence of this post) I wasn't feeling well having just been in the e.r. the day before soi left early (did i mention it was a country bar) and on the way home i hit a pot hole and did this.


luckily i had my jack and a matching spare, so i was able to get going as soon as i put the spare on. the next day i met up with my car club (houston inc) and went to the san jacinto monument.




and then went out for chicken wings, it was nice to meat up with them and compare cars. it was fun being the only white guy all weekend.

dance dance revolution and glow-in-the-dark boobs

My friend Rachel celebrated her 26th birthday last week, it was alot of fun. i went to her sisters place and the three of us had dinner and cake and played a game. the next day a bunch of us went to saltgrass for dinner then to the main event to bowl and play games. it was sooo much fun to hang out with rachel and her friends. happy birthday rachel!

i love it when a plan comes together

Have you ever had a scheme planned out and later you find out that it worked exactly how you wanted? Why Andy, whatever do you mean? Well, allow me to elaborate. (btw, I will not be naming names to protect the innocent, so try to keep up) A female friend whom I had taken out a couple of times before she gave me the “I just don’t want a relationship right now” and then introduced me to her boyfriend a couple of weeks later was having a birthday party and wanted me to come. I wanted to go to help her celebrate her birthday, but felt that I would be more comfortable if I had a date. I called an attractive female friend of mine and told her that I would need a trophy date for the event and she agreed and said that she would be glad to dress provocatively in order to make others jealous. Well, we went and had a good time, my trophy date and I, nothing really eventful happened, just a nice evening. So, 4 days after said event I get a call from a buddy who was not there saying that the brother of the birthday girl, who was there, said that his wife had mentioned how good looking Andy’s new girlfriend was. SUCCSESS! My trophy date and I shared a good laugh about it. Thanks trophy date!

see, i told you i did

i was lucky enough to have a valentine this year, and she's pretty good looking to boot! we went on a dinner cruise out of kemah. it was a surprise, i didn't tell her where we were going, and kemah's still a little tore up, so we were driving through a bad neighborhood to get there and she asked me "are you going to kill me and throw me in the lake"? it was pretty funny. the couple across from us got engaged during the cruise. we had a great time, and as far as valentines day goes, it was one of the best.

i have a date for valentines day

for the first time since my divorce, i'm pretty excited about it.

apparently i'm quite the catch

Lately I've been hearing things like that from a few females. Like, " I can't believe your ex left" and "I can't believe you're single". Well guess what! I am! A girl who's in a relationship telling you that you're quite a catch is like your mom telling you that you're handsome, it's not really helping me out. And it's even worse when a single girl says it, if I'm such a catch how come we're not on a date right now? Women, you can't live with them and they can't turn up missing.

on heartbreak

Have you ever had someone break your heart with so much care and respect that you actually like them more? That's pretty much how it went down last night. I actually feel closer to her than I did before. Without getting into to much detail I can't explain exactly what I mean, but believe me when I say that even though it hurt, it was beautiful.

did you enjoy your new years celebration as much as i did?

well, did ya?
