Watched "once upon a time in Hollywood". A little slow but the ending is great. Pretty good throughout other than the pacing.
Eh, the plot twist was kinda cool but.. Tarantino just..well,.. I don't like his stuff anymore. This movie was sloooow and in true Tarantino format, spending way too much time on ignorant misplaced scenes.. just my thoughts..

And... I had no idea going into the movie what it was even about, I just saw the cast and thought, it can't be bad with this many great actors/reses.

Thinking ultimate TBI mods, L98/LT1 cam, headers and 3.23s. Then subframe braces, wonder bar, tubular LCAs and drive the crap out of it with the A/C on and cruise set...
Sweet. When I was 12 my granddad bought my uncle a brand new '90 IROC Z28, blk and grey. It was the fastest thing I'd ever been in at the time and dreamed of one day owning one. I learned my lesson for horsepower at 18 and been a p/u guy ever since.
 

KC!

So.. My long term future's been on the mind lately. Kinda weird typing about it to strangers although being here under a year and the camaraderie vibe that this place has, I feel like yall are my closest buddies here lately.. Anyway.

I went to the doc this morning for my monthly IVIG infusion and another chemo treatment for the HLH I was diagnosed with last December. I don't show but slight traces of it on my bloodwork but something I didn't remember the doc telling me, I guess Feb or Marchish, was that HLH has a super high mortality rate with people who are diagnosed, like 2-6mo, and even treated in time, in adults only 21-26% make it 5yrs.

So no more waiting to do things, life is too short, literally. I'm going to continue building this X and have a blast with it. Anyone need any firearms!? haha I'm dumping all of my sports collection too and going on hiatus~

I'll keep working as long as I can as they are very good about giving me as much time off as I want and I have endless PTO accrued..

What a pain in the ass! Good note is the pancreas and kidney transplant from 2009 are doing great again!

My xterra ran like shiat tonight, it was sputtering and backfiring engine was bogging down. It did that for like 5 minutes then ran normal.

"snowed" here too. More like freezing rain, but slightly fluffier. Truck doors were froze shut this morning.

Hope it warms up, I need to get the X fixed and going again and then install the new radio in the truck.

Stuck at work, in training. Not exciting but pays well.

I'm sorry you are having to deal with that. I can't imagine the stress and pressure you must be under all the time, so Im glad you are saying ufck it and doing whatever you wanna do. I think thats the best plan.

ufckin rules about the pancreas and kidney transplant taking though!

Thats what I love about this place. Good place to get shiat off your chest.

Making chicken noodle soup in the instant pot. It is the first time I will have cooked a whole chicken in there.

I cook whole chickens in there fairly regularly. Works great, makes them extra tender

Tried that once, how do you keep it from pecking at the top and scratching the bowl with its claws??? Also, the feathers make everything else in there taste a bit funny... :p

Slow cookers are great, makes meal prep a lot easier. Don't usually do entire chickens, I prefer those roasted so you get some nice crisp edges on them. But mix in a good sauce with some chicken thighs...

If I lived within 4-5 hour's I'd bounce on over and give ya a hand wrenching but living a couple hour's from the east coast in Maryland I don't see it . I am glad to hear your transplant's are doing great on their 10 year anniversary !! It's good your employer understand's and give's you the time you need. Keep that positive attitude and forward looking thought........... I think it help's :) Don't forget the updates , on you and the X build"""""
