Good Bye Volkswagen

Well I sold finally sold my VW.  It was a sad day, but I think it went to a good home.  When the car was bought originally in 1972 it was the lady's first car.  When I bought it in like 1999, it was my first car.  And now it goes to another first car owner.  The kid who bought it was from Walnut Creek and drove it back.  The car made it there.  I was honestly surprised it did.  The car hadn't been drove in about 6 years.  As soon as my neighbor comes home, I will be a British car owner.  It is a 1970 MGB GT.  Its British Racing Green, and in decent shape.  It's going to need some work, but it shouldn't be too bad.  I will post some photos when I get the chance to.

Facebook among other things

Well I have almost been off of Facebook for a week now.  It feels strange.  I have extra time to do things, and I don't know what I want to do with them.  I also feel like I am disconnected from everyone.  I keep thinking to myself, "maybe I should have just deleted the riff raff and left my good friends and my family".  Too late now, I don't think I am ever going to go back.  I don't like the fact that they save everything and you can never really delete your account, only deactivate it.  

Today is Natalie's Ballet recital.  I am excited and extremely proud of her for doing so well.  I know I am a biased source, but it seems like she is one of the only girls to actually do the dance correctly.  I will have to post some photos on here later about it.

Yesterday was Trent's Rain Gutter Ragata (spelling?).   He had made a Steamboat Willie boat and it turned out pretty cool.  He won 3 times and lost 2 times.  This was the last of the event's for scouts that he will do.  He is growing up and if he decides to continue on with scouts, he will be too old to do anymore stuff like that.  Only the big boy scouts from now on.

I have a guy coming this weekend to look at my VW.  I am excited.  I hope he buys it.  The crazy bastard lives in Walnut Creek, CA.  and wants to drive it home, if he decides to buy it.  I haven't drove the car in 6 years and he wants drive it an hour and a half.  INSANE.  But oh well, as long as he buys it, I'm OK with whatever he decides to do.  If he does buy it, I will be getting another project to start working on.  It will be a surprise for all you 0 people who actually read this blog.  Maybe in my next post, I will put up some pics and stuff if the guy buys and I get something else.

BAH Craigslist

So I have been trying to sell my 73 Volkswagen on Craigslist for the past 2 weeks with no luck.  I have recieved like 4 emails now, all being spam, about it.  Its becoming very annoying.  Do people actually believe that someone will deposit money into their account, sight unseen, and not be a scam?  Who the hell would actually give someone their bank account #?

A new begining

I have deleted my Facebook profile.  It felt good. I am trying to get away from living my life on my computer.  I am hoping with the extra time that I save from sitting on Facebook, I can reconnect with some hobbies I used to have and maybe take up some new ones.
