Why hide it?

I am fucking blind and have been forever; in order to illustrate how blind I am here is what the numbered vision that I am (logMAR)

-11.50 right eye
-10.00 left eye

in 20/20 terms I am...

20 / .00000000006324  right eye
20 / .00000000002        left eye

here is what it looks like with my new glasses.

with glass!

And I love it! after all, why hide what I really am! also heard back from YoshiFab and he is already on it and has the new head bolts on order. The company that sent the bolts accidentally sent 8v bolts rather than 16v. I don't know when they will get in, hopefully by the end of the week, but I will however be getting a new monitor in tomorrow and that should make my eyeballs jump for glee!

Oh, come on…

Finally had all the parts in to put the engine together this weekend, but it turns out the head bolts that were ordered are far too large, so now I have to wait another week to get the correct ones in… I am really glad that that I have another daily… but in all honesty I am pretty pissed that the project has been on this lull for such a long time. I really want to hear this thing at full tilt…

Anyway here is a grab bag of things that have been in my eye sockets.

The Jacket, and how to waste time...

While waiting for the super special Volvo head sealant to be ready I have gotten a couple things done...

Finally got the team patch sewed onto my leather jacket.

and purchased the biggest of time sucks Call of Duty: Black Ops

























CrazyOctopus, to top it all off someone asked me if i was the same CrazyOctopus with the slammed green 240z. Best moment.

Been a really long time since I have posted anything about my personal life so I figured that I would finally spill the beans; as far as the personal life goes, it could be better... ::begin rant::

I have been seeing this amazing girl for the last 4 months, and as much as I asked and tried to develop the relationship past the "man-friend/lady-friend" relationship; it never happened. That coupled with the fact that I couldn't even walk her to her family's front door, nor see her during the daylight hours while she was in town (she lives in LA) may have also played a part in it. I mean come on? I have know her brother for 7-8 years and I never thought that there was any bad blood between us, and then all of a sudden once I start seeing his sister everything changed (she is 25, nothing weird).

With this new ultimate dislike of me, and the relationship that I had with his sister, he essentially forced me out. I would like to think that without that happening, something could have been developed. Yes I know that I could have just kept things where they were and just waited even longer, but if he can't open his mind after 4 months who is to say that it would ever. For all truths though; I really wish that it had worked out because she is a fucking amazing lady. ::end rant::
