Yep, sounds like you need some rest man. Especially after meetings like that all day. I bet that's some "dry" sh*t!

There's nothing more frustrating to me after a long day than dealing with a half-*** running car as well. Get those coil packs soon as you can.

Damn, I'm off today and I'm awake at 5 in the morning. Could be worse for you, atleast your not old like me.
Jacob, anybody cruising to Sonic tonight that you heard of?

Yes I believe you are correct in terms of the spelling. Seriously speaking I feel for you. Sometimes it feels like you don't have enough times to do what you want to. Prioritize everything is all I can tell you. Make sure you eat and rest properly and work out. I am not saying you become an athlete, just recommending some stress relief. If you keep up this pace, it won't be long before it catches up to you. Trust me I know. At the end of the day it's just a job. Good luck and thanks for doing what you do.
