Well hello one and all my fellow Mopar enthusiasts… So I’ve been MIA for a hot minute!! Things have changed a whole lot for a guy.
To start, I finally tied the knot!!!
So thankful this gorgeous girl said I do. Now she’s stuck with me and my cars forever!!
Also, I was sent to the night-shift at work finally. So I am now permanently on the 12-8 AM shift until I get enough seniority to bid on a daytime position in a few years… Could be 5 to 7 years or even longer but I’m hoping it isn’t the case. It has been a rough adjustment, especially the time it happened.
I was sent to my shift beginning of June, 2 weeks before the big day!! So adjusting to the night schedule, and STILL having to plan for a wedding was rough. We were extremely busy leading up to the big day, and even then - we had a honeymoon right after!
The fun was over before it began, cause I was back to work that very night we got back. It’s been a heck of a month, plus the week after - the band I play in had a show! It was a lot of prep for that as well, but we totally killed it and it was really fun.
Me playing the tenor sax!
A pic of some of us that Saturday night in Morro Bay. I’ll try and upload some of our performance on YouTube !
Things are starting to now wind down thankfully. I’m used to my shift now, although I do feel pretty tired most of the day even after I sleep. I really really need to find time to spend with my wife but ALSO to make it to the next town over and put some serious work into my New Yorker. I essentially haven’t touched it since January, before I started the new job and they were training me on days.
A few of the guys from my band had never heard the old girl in real life (we practice in the garage next to it) and I hadn’t started her up in a hot minute either. I was wondering whether or not she’d give me problems!!
I should’ve known better, because this sweet old girl barked off IMMEDIATELY with some fuel in those bowls and not even 2 cranks. Everyone was amazed to hear the power of that mighty 440! My friend Chevy captured the moment I was hooking everything up. Perched on the tire seemed like a good place to be LOL
Soon, I’ve got to go back and regroup from where I left off, because honestly I can’t even remember myself! I’m dreading it, but at the same time hoping to regain the momentum I had before, and to be able to hit it hard - this time crossing the finish line and MAKING THIS THING DRIVE!!! Seeing everyone else here enjoy their C Bodies makes me wish I could enjoy mine. Now I just have to buy out the time and make it happen.
