Default roll out!

The time has come... I am going to be leaving to move to TX on monday morning. the cars are being shipped, and i'm driving down in a Penske truck. that monday date is of course dependent on everything going as planned. the drive will take me 4 eight hour driving days, so it'll probably be a week or so before i get a computer back up and running... so make sure there are some good posts for me to read for when i get my stuff back in gear!

wish me luck, this drive is going to be brutal!

well, as expected, stuff isnt going as planned... got the truck today and its like 90% loaded up (pretty much everything except my comptuer ****!), but the car transport is running behind schedule... i'm gonna call them in the morning and find out what the deal is, but they are sucking *** as far as getting back to me, so it looks like i'm not leaving on monday morning anymore... i'm taking the computer apart in the morning though, so i will get back to y'all in about a week!

buttaz, b-rad,

yeah, friday night at bennigan's was awesome... much more than i expected from a resturaunt. just about everyone that i invited showed up, so i was real happy about that too.

sorry about not being able to come over to chill in the driveway... we had a little run-in with the police... to make the long story short, we got back to my friend's house, and were just about to get in the car to go to your place... and then all of a sudden, 4 police cars come flying into the parking lot, surround us and say that someone called the police saying that someone was trying to break into cars in the parking lot... i thought it was pretty amusing, but my friend was shitting bricks cuz they ran her plates and her registration just expired, so they were giving her a really hard time...

we'll see what my delayed schedule turns into, and maybe ill get the chance to swing by again before i jet.
