They don’t make ’em like they used to.
Yep, another wallpaper. Hope this doesn’t turn into the Wallpaper blog again like it did a while back. Hehe. I put together a little homage to Oldsmobile’s history. Lots of Cutlasses and only one Toronado! Click the picture for the hi-res version.
Here’s My New Car
As you know, Matt and I put some model cars together. Mine is cooler than his tho! hehe
Mine is a 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Roadster (as pictured above). What do you think of the huge motor? Pretty cool, huh?
I got some black paint specs on the body, but luckily in this picture you can’t really see them.
Oh well, that’s my car. Enjoy!
11.1.06A new car!
And I built it! It’s been a long time since I put a model together. I honestly can’t remember the last time. But I used to build them all the time. I had them all over my room, hanging from the ceiling, on shelves, pretty much anywhere I could set one. Putting this one together brought back a lot of forgotten memories. The smell of the glue, the way it feels if you get it stuck on your fingers. How you have to be really careful poping some of the pieces out without breaking them.
Andrea built herself one too. A ’68 Corvette. We were looking for something to do together, so we each picked out a kit. It was fun working together for the most part, but there were times when tensions were high too. =) Sometimes it can be a little stressful trying to make the actual product look like what they made on the box.
It was fun. But I don’t think I’m going to take it up as a major hobby. I don’t have the tools or the skills to make them look really good. But this lil’ Monte Carlo looks pretty good sitting there on the shelf in my office.

10.18.06Days like this, I could live without.
You know…when it’s definetly not summer, but it’s still not winter? I wouldn’t call it fall though. Fall is brisk mornings to get you out of bed and get your blood moving, and cool evenings to wear a jacket and go on a walk with a friend and enjoy the golden hues of the leaves as they fall from the branches that you didn’t know were there all summer.
No, today is not fall. It is indecision. One of those days when the world calls in sick, but you still have to go to work. A stiff north breeze cuts through your underdressed outfit, through your skin to your very core, and sun only does barely enough work to not let it be night. The worst of it all is there’s no escaping it. It envelops you from every direction, like a bad dream when you can’t wake up. The only relief is to retreat into your shell, full of artificial lights and stale old smells. You pull up a blanket, you grab a book, a warm cup of cocoa and try to put as much material between you and the day as you can.
Yes, I could do without days like today. I have enough indecision in my life as it is. But the best thing about indecision is that it can’t make up it’s own mind. Tomorrow will be sunny and 65. And I have a friend and a walk already in mind.

Anyone can stand by you when you are right, but a Friend will stand by you even when you are wrong…
A simple friend identifies their self when they call.
A real friend doesn’t have to.
A simple friend opens a conversation with a full news bulletin on his life.
A real friend says, “What’s new with you?”
A simple friend thinks the problems you whine about are recent.
A real friend says, “You’ve been whining about the same thing for 14 years. Get off your duff and do something about it.”
A simple friend has never seen you cry.
A real friend has shoulders soggy from your tears.
A simple friend doesn’t know your parents’ first names.
A real friend has their phone numbers in their address book.
A simple friend hates it when you call after they has gone to bed.
A real friend asks you why you took so long to call.
A simple friend seeks to talk with you about your problems.
A real friend seeks to help you with your problems.
A simple friend, when visiting, acts like a guest.
A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself.
A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument.
A real friend knows that it’s not a friendship until after you’ve had a fight.
A simple friend expects you to always be there for them.
A real friend expects to always be there for you!
A simple friend will love you until you part ways.
A Real Friend will love you forever no matter how far part you are.

I had completely forgot about this poem its been a few years since I’ve added onto it. it has been growing ever since I started it is use to be only 4 lines and now look at it. Its really grown and its always looking for words to put in it. I’m sure a few of you out there have read this before because you probably have helped contribute to this poem.
