*Trans Am*

Every since I was about 19 or 20 I've been in love with trans ams. The first one I fell in love with was the '91/'92 year model. They had the pointy nose on them. My future brother in law just happened to own one at one point in time. It was the second manual transmission cars I drove. It turned me on like no boy ever could. :P

Fast forward a couple of hundred years. (yes I feel that old some days lol) We finally bought one. It's a '96 with a LT1 motor. Which I know most of you are like huh?!? when it comes to that. lol I understand. It's not the body style that I wanted but it has the motor that K wanted. So what we are going to do is get the front cap off of a newer model and replace it. That way I get my body style and K gets his motor. It's a win/win situation.
Well, that is until we priced replacing the front cap. It's not cheap.

Then K comes home the other day from work and tells me a friend of his will trade him the front cap off the body style we want for K helping him do a motor swap. Hells yeah! Done deal.

This car is your typical used car. She has her issues. We've been slowly working on them and figuring them out one by one. We've about come to the conclusion that some idiot owned her before and did a hack job under the hood. A lot of wires were broke, spark plug wire replaced with one that didn't fit. It's seriously a miracle that she ran to begin with.

Want to see her?!?!?

Isn't she a beauty!?!? I've named her the mistress since my husband loves her more than he loves me some days. :P

IGN has the trailer for Epic Mickey Wii game

I am an absolute fan of all things Disney so this has me extremely happy!

What do you think? Are you a fan?

K's birthday

I love spoiling my husband. It's my job.

This year was no different. I've been researching HD tv's for quite a while now. We've wanted one for quite a while now. lol

We got up for his birthday and headed to Sears. I told him he had a $50 limit. Use it wisely. I kept hinting at going to electronics to look at movies or a game. He reluctantly headed that way and never ventured over to the tvs. I swear. lol I try to hint and the boy just doesn't get it.

So I just flat out walk over there and start looking. We looked around for about an hour before deciding on one.

We got the LG 42". Its quite nice. lol We went through absolute HELL to actually purchase it but it was/is worth it.

Of course we immediately came home, hooked it up and watched Avatar on BluRay.

Garage Sales

We decided to get up Saturday morning and hit the garage sales. We absolute hit the jackpot at some of them! K mainly, but I got something I have been dying to own. :D

Where we live is the best place for garage sales. Our main road is nothing but neighborhoods on one side. We never got further than 7 miles from our house. A few we just rode by. Yes, I know you aren't suppose to do that but when I ride by and see nothing but baby items and nic-nacs I just can't bring myself to stop and shop.

I wish I had taken pics of everything before my husband took off with it. lol He was in heaven finding all kinds of crap.

We got: a saw (IDK what kind) for $20, bread maker for $3, couple of tools for $1, a 3 way extension cord for $.50, one of these for $3.00, paint sprayer for $3.00. I think we did pretty damn good.

Problem is, my husband now has the garage sale bug. :P

Lazy Day

It's almost 2 pm and I've done absolutely nothing. I'm blaming it on an uber busy weekend and today being nasty outside. I have to blame it on something right?!?

We had a blast Saturday riding. Met some new people. I didnt take pics but a girl that was with us did. Hopefully I'll get the pics from her and I'll share with y'all later this week.

Sunday was yard day. I helped K clean the 4 wheeler and watched the fire while he cut the back yard. I'm now sunburned again but not bad. I looked like an idiot sitting in the back yard watching a fire holding an umbrella but hey, I'm a red head. Gotta do what I gotta do to stop me from burning so bad. :)

Hope everyone had a good one!

New Furniture

Finally!! After 10 years of hand me down couches, we finally bought a new sectional. We're in love.

Yes, a sectional eats my small ass living room BUT...it has a removable wedge that when removed doesnt look like a sectional is missing a piece. It's a couch and love seat with a wedge.

We have room for everyone to sit now and when we get ready to sell, just remove the wedge for more room. :D

PERFECT!!

Update

*Got an estimate on the truck today. $1600 worth of damage. Figured that much.

*I got a HUGE Christmas bonus from my boss. I've already spent half of it.

*I am now the proud owner of......an iPhone!!!!!!!!! YES!!!
I am so in love with it. You have no idea.

*I also got Animal Crossing City Folk and I'm addicted.

*K almost hit another deer going to work yesterday morning. If he did I'm not sure I could handle it.

*I'm also not sure anyone reads my blog anymore. :(

Um, I NEED this!

OMG So freaking gorgeous!! You can find it HERE!

Heathers 2

So someone around Hollywood has been planting bugs in peoples ears about doing a Heathers 2. Seriously I'm all for it. It was the first movie that made me fall deeply and madly in love with Christian Slater. Yes he was a little crazy in that movie but that's what made me love him even more. LOL

I just hope it doesnt turn out like Lost Boys 2. That movie sucked big ole donkey balls. Seriously. I was NOT happy!

OH and doesn't Christian Slater's new show come on this week? Have I missed it already?

All I want for Christmas...

Yes, I know it's still months away but all I want is a gift card to Sephora. I want, no, no, need new make up. And brushes and all things pretty and shiny. ;)

Guess what I almost did yesterday?

hehehe I came this [ ] close to getting a tattoo yesterday. One of the hubby's friends was at a local tattoo place getting 2 new ones. He is offering to pay for mine. Problem was, I couldnt find one I liked! Rawr! They had so many to choose from but nothing jumped out at me.
Hubby did find one though. I do wonder if he didnt chicken out a little. I'm going to find it on the internet, print it out and see what the price is going to be. Since our anniversary is coming up that just might be his present. :D
Plus, the faster I get him one the faster I can get mine. He says since I already have one he is next. Well mine shouldnt count since I got it when I was 18! lol
I think that's just his way of making sure he gets one first.

There was a girl in the next chair getting one on her arm. Right above her wrist on the inner part ... That's where I want my stars. I also noticed that she had her husbands hand and kept gripping. Hard. So I'm assuming it hurts like hell right there.

I'll update later with a pic of the one hubby wants.

UPDATE: This is one that I am seriously thinking about getting. The cherries represent what else but a lose of innocence. No not "my cherry" but the loss of basically everything I've known to be true. Most of my childhood was a lie. The 3 stars because it all happened when I turned 30. Again seriously thinking about getting it on the inside of my wrist. This one would be small so not that bad.


Just found this one that K likes. Only thing he would change is make the top a 6 speed instead of 4. I'm not sure I like that about it but it's his tattoo not mine. :)

Things I love

Thought I'd list a few things I love. Kind of a get to know me post with pictures. ;)


My korean mink blanket. It is the best blanket in the world. It's like being wrapped up in a big ole teddy bears arms.


Cooking. I love trying new recipes. Every now and then I'll come across a recipe that taste like ass but it was still worth a shot. ;)


Oh sleep. I could sleep my life away and not care. It's wonderful.


Music. It's a huge part of my life. Whether I'm happy, sad, angry, depressed, whatever, music is there to get me going.
I remember being so pissed off, putting the Metallica black album in and just jamming out. I won't tell you how much this cd effects my driving though. The harder the music the faster I drive. I love it! But shhh dont tell anyone I'm a major speed demon K? ;)


Candy. Especially runts. I'm not a huge chocolate fan but I do get in my moods where thats all I want.


Oh Mario Kart, how I miss you so. I'm totally convinced this is the reason carpal tunnel is kicking my ass so hard right now. Playing every day, a few hours a day will take a toll on your hands. But I got my star. :D I know most of you dont understand what I mean but for those that do you should understand my obsession.

There's lots more but I figured I'd save those for another rainy day.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
