So my old F-150 is nailed in the side, then my son's Acura is in a wreck, now my wife's 5.0 has a slipping AOD transmission. The F-150 is headed for a frame shop, the Acura is IN the frame shop, and the Mustake will have to wait. We're doing the sheetmetal work on the 2 wrecks, (want to guess how many spot welds hold the core support on an Acura?), but I hate automatics, and won't work on them. I have 2 project cars I've been drooling to work on, but the everyday drivers take priority. Maybe I should lease a Toyota Echo. I did buy another F-150 to take the place of the broken F-150, but we're running out of cars! Did I mention that I loaned my riding mower to a buddy who blew it up?

I'll go have some coffee.

I screwed up. I bought a house with the garage under the bedrooms (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I've done very little on the car since Shannon was born. If she's still awake when I get home I play with her, and when she or her mother are sleeping/resting I try to be quiet.

There seems to be a lot of burnout going around this year. I think a big part of avoiding it is keeping the natural escalation in check.

I'm not burned out on racing at all. I am VERY burned out on digging ditches in the rain.
