It was 102 today. I mowed half the yard starting about 6:30. It was miserable. They're supposed to deliver my new tractor tomorrow. Sure will help.

Wool, you healing decently?
Friday:
Called Stacey to say bye before her trip, phone already off.
Went into work early and left at noon. Drank a little til about 5 when a friend got into town then we all went out to the desert camping. Should've been an hour's drive ... left my house at 6 and finally ended up stopping at 920. Never found Killbourne Hole, just camped in the desert. A friend's buddy was headed out there so at about midnight we went to try to find him. Drove an hour (way too far) and never found him. On way back to camp I got stuck
. Eventually got traction by putting branches under the LR tire (that's the one that lots traction), I was already in 4x4 when I got stuck.
While getting unstuck my pants got WET. Slipped into the hole I was stuck in (after I got unstuck) looking for the bottle of Jack (for some reason the dude riding with me had the Jack with us and then took it out of my truck when I was off getting branches to stick under the tire). DJ, the dude riding with me, was in a deep part trying to help me get out. When we got back we just ended up taking off our jeans and puttin' 'em near the fire to dry out. Ellen and Larissa got a kick out of it.
Next mornin' pants are still completely soaked. I drive back with them in my back seat. Michael's truck dies on the side of the highway, small town highway. I end up helping push it. I'm wearin my white t-shirt, boxers, and my boots. Awesome.
Sleep at about 3 and up by before 7 and headed home.
I've got an awesome grinding sound coming from my front end when accelerating a bit, and while engaging when I'm already in motion. Rear diff has a drip, leak is where shaft goes in. Sadness.
Saturday:
Drinking. That about sums up Saturday. We killed 5 30s, a 5th of whiskey, 12 of Miller High Life, and some (maybe a 1/3 of a 5th) tequila. That was Friday and Saturday. 8 of us did that damage.
While we were hanging out last night Ellen (room mate's chick that he cheated on ex with) was here and then room mate's ex came over. Michael, who is into Ellen, saw Val and "Who invited you?" in an obnoxious tone, hilarious! Later he was dancing and drinking tequila outta the bottle and Val said "That's disgusting" to which Michael replied "You're disgusting!" She was obnoxious at times last night.
When it was just a few of us left (Me, Josh, Val, and Christina [val's friend]) Val had two SMALL sips of tequila (she doesnt drink because of the crazy meds she is on) and then started rolling on the floor "I'm drunk, ahhh!" WTF dude, seriously.
Sunday:
Michael's dog, Darlin, is here, he is at Ellen's. I wake up and Darlin and Shosty (my dog) are sleeping on my bed. I go to living room and watch an hour+ of The Office. Ellen & Michael get here, I go to get something outta my room and smell dog ****. Darlin crapped on my pants (the ones from Friday's story). Shosty puked behind the couch in the living room from eating something in the gravel in the back yard. Sigh.
Watching A Goofy Movie now.

Its been probably the roughest few days of my life. I'm just glad i have such great family and friends or this would be impossible. Friday was rough. Saturday was going better until scout our 110lb golden jumped up on my bed and kicked my arm out of the sling. That was a huge set back. Today has been alright I have been up a little and went to flower mound to see my family. I'm hoping to sleep through the night and plus I have a hot nurse so I can't complain. Im still planning on meeting you crazed come hell or high water. I'll get one of my bitches to drive me to come eat lunch or something haha. The best part is you probably think I'm kidding

I spent 17-18 hours working on my friends truck. 2001 silverado, installing a 3/4 belltech kit and 4 new ball joints up front. Came out really good. Pics tonight probably.
Gonna finish getting ready for work. GD im so tired tho.
