One week to go...

...until my wedding. It's getting busy. Still not nervous. Just busy. Trying to move into the new place today and the bottom dropped out of the sky. It sucks trying to move in a downpour. I'm going back and forth between here and my drive in storage unit. It's actually nice as it's covered from the elements and I can load and unload in all weather. That is until today. This is the one day the complex is having a big garage sale. It looks like a freaking flea market. You can't drive inside which means you park outside in the deluge and shuttle your stuff back and forth through the rain. Awesome. Great timing. Anyways, that's my weekend. My last free one. My warranty officially expires at 5:30 PM next Saturday, April 25th.

I'll PM you my number. If at ANY time you feel like backing out during the ceremony, give me a call and I'll be sitting outside in the car to whisk you away and tear a streak on the road in the process.

Sure hope the missus is a Rotor head like you.

I didn't get nervous until about an hour before the ceremony. Working on year 29 now.

Wow what a weekend. A bad one for cars. My soon to be wife's father's Z28 was flooded on Friday and I don't mean in the same way a rotary does. Scratch one LS1. It's dead. Needs a new one. We started moving into our apartment on Saturday. It really sucked that this was the worst rain we've had in the 7 months since Ike hit us. Lots of widespread flooding. Stalled cars everywhere. There were certain places I just plain refused to drive due to high water. I stopped a few times and the people behind me got all pissed off. I don't care. Their anger isn't worth my engine. No I wasn't driving a rotary. I wouldn't have been as worried. At least twice I turned around in the middle of the road with people honking at me. Tough. Go drive to your engine's death, and lots of them there were. More fun Saturday night. I'll have to save that story for a new thread as it's worthy of it. Needless to say the weekend has been so busy that I got to bed at 3 am last night. Work starts at 8 am and is 45 minutes away. It's going to be a long week.

For the other story see the thread titled "People suck!"
