Cleaned on the car some Friday, getting ready for the 45th Mustang Anniversary in Birmingham, AL. Then, Friday night I headed up to Murphreesboro, TN to see a buddy. We hung out at his work for a few hours until he got off. On Saturday we hit up the pull-a-part where I scored some spare axles for my Dana 30. They are in good shape, the unit bearings are good and tight, but one needs a new u-joint. Saturday night, we went out for a night on the town, went up to Nashville and hit up 2nd Avenue. :cheers: We were going to go to the Coyote Ugly saloon, but Ben doesn't turn 21 until December, and they wouldn't let him in. However, grahams central station is 18 and up, so we had a decent time there; played pool for a couple hours and had a few drinks... then realized I suck at pool when I've been drinking lol. Then the girls hopped up on the bar and started dancing. One of them reminded me of Brandi so much, she was built almost exactly the same, but a little taller and blonde, she was beautiful. I couldn't deal with it. I no longer saw this stranger up there, I saw Brandi. I had to leave. We then went down to Hard Rock to grab a bite to eat. I had a pretty good burger, but enjoyed drowning my sorrows, in the "sex on the beach" that was so good, even more. I also, in my drunkeness found 2 ladies to talk to, but that didn't help my problem. After the several drinks, it was time to head back, I was getting pretty bad. I yelled and "sang" all kinds of songs to people all up and down 2nd avenue, and made a complete and utter fool of myself. Almost to the point that I regret even going. Don't get me wrong, I like having a good time, but depression sucks, and alcohol can only help so much. The things I did last night wasn't me. Its not who I am. I've just been so pissed at the world that I have lost care for many many things, my standards, my beliefs and morals, and also many people. The alcohol makes me smile, at least for a few hours, and that seems to be the only relief that I can get sometimes. Yeah, working on the car, Jeep, truck, etc does help some, but in the end, they are only vehicles, and they cant talk back or help me feel any better.
Anyway, enough of the novel...
When I got back today I got out the aluminum polish and went over the wheels and trim on the car and also replaced the oil pressure sender since it went out again. Tomorrow night I plan on cleaning the interior out really well, and cleaning the windows. Tuesday night I have class, but on Wed I will wax the car and give it a final onceover. We will be heading out pretty early on Friday morning. The weather is supposed to be nice, so maybe it will be a good trip.
