Beautiful Night

Last night on my paper route was very terrifyingly beautiful. It was one of those stormy nights where for whatever reason its not raining but looking at the sky you would think it should be. Ive always found weather simply amazing save the fact that some beautiful weather will try to kill you. The rain did not set in until I was finished and I am very thankful for that.

Also yesterday Ashleigh's dad and I (not sure if I'm on a first name basis) fixed the fan motor on my car. My only concern now is that when I tried it out by leaving my car idle with full ac going for 15 minutes it was very cold in my car so I think i can live with that. Ended up saving about $175 by doing the tedious 45 minutes of work ourselves. Also I learned to change my oil on my "new Car" turns out its difficult if i leaver the passenger tire on and simple if i take it off (who knew) so another $15 dollars saved per oil change.



lastly its kind of far away but If you just cant seem to make your money work for you you really need to check out Dave Ramsey. He is a financial advisor radio/tv show host who is in the process of turning my financial burdens around. With Daves plan I have turned my 30,000 in debt to 14,000 in just over a year and cant wait to prove to people all around that living without payments is not as unbelievable as most would lead you to believe.

Awhile

its been a while since my last post but since lately I commit this crime few and far between compared to everyone else I forgive me. The last week has been rather eventful. wednesday Ash and I went to see Disney's Earth which was beautiful makes me want blue ray so I can get planet earth. Then Thursday I got to break out my bowling ball and the consensus is out I'm awesome game 1 126 game 2 116 game 3 141. During bowling we found a new place that has 2 dollar games after 9. then yesterday we went to olive garden with friends and then saw 17 again for the first time which much to my surprise was rather funny and cute, but not to the point that i would go see 17 again. well more to come later (I mean hopefully sooner)

Vroom Vroom

So If your wondering why i haven't posted lately then you don't know that I work for Texas Motor Speedway seasonally. I especially enjoy working there and I'm not sure why because it is always a beat down energy-wise. Just to show how rough my weekend has been:

Thursday paper 3a-6a speedway 9a-10p
Friday paper 3a-6a speedway 10a-9p
Saturday paper 3a-6a speedway 8a-6p
Sunday paper 12a-7a speedway 7a-7p
Truthfully if given an opportunity to have a "real" job there I think I would take it. Don't get me wrong the papers awesome at least paycheck-wise. I think my excitement comes from helping others and I know I enjoy the stories I hear and see that only can be concocted from 4 strait days of drinking anywhere and everywhere. This particular race was relatively easy except for the weather


Thursday wind burn 60 F
Friday sun burn 70 F
Saturday sun burn 80 F
Sunday Wind burn 50 F
Only in Texas. Today is catch up day as I have a paper due in class today. My teacher gave us the whole weekend to get it done where did the time go (luckily its just a rough draft). I plan on posting a few speedway moments here and there over the next few days
