I dunno, man. Check the sticker in the driver's side front door. The one on the left looks a little under inflated.

Hmm. I think my boost gauge may be broken. The gauge won't rise past 1PSI. I made a couple pulls and the car feels and sounds fine with the power it normally does. I checked hoses, the intake to TB coupler as well as reseated the TB and nothing fixed it.

Today was a good day at work. We had our grand opening and a bunch of old pre-war cars showed up. And 2 radio stations since another O'Reilly's store was having their grand opening and the radio people got confused. They didn't want to make the hour drive to the other store, so they just hung out and chatted with us till 1. :toot:

All I could get were terrible potato quality phone pictures taken on short breaks from working on the front counter to go on deliveries.


EDIT: We also had a very strange catte try to visit us in the store earlier this week. He was very angry and kept hissing at people.

Just got run off the road on my way home. Dude in a truck blasted past me then jumped into the lane, slammed his brakes and turned right. I turned left hard, car spun in the rain and I ended up in the ditch. Alignment is hosed. Hands are shaking.

Delivered to a house with a pretty sweet looking Vette out front (they said it was an 07). I commented on it.

Then she started talking about their 64. :stare:

"Would you like to see it?"

:stonklol: Why yes, yes I would. Around to the garage, and... turns out they have a 64 and (I think she said) a 65. The 64 is a driver - restored and a thing of absolute beauty, but not numbers matching or original, just built to be a reliable cruiser that also happens to turn heads (has the correct engine/trans combo, just not the originals). The other wasn't there, but I was told it was a numbers matching car that mostly gets driven to shows.

Turns out the husband is the president of one of the local Corvette clubs, and the wife is the treasurer. Hopefully I get to deliver to them again, and maybe the other Vette will be there too. :swoon:

Our parking lot at work is getting to be pretty AI.

Just among the delivery drivers, there's two 2015 Fiesta STs (one black, one charcoal, otherwise nearly identical) and a 2013 5.0 Mustang. One of the managers has a 2013 V6 Mustang that he's dumped a bit of money into, but he's getting ready to trade it in for a 2015 5.0.

Turbo is a hellion and she'd never sit still long enough for me to wrestle a sweater onto her.

My dog trainer has told me to ignore her when she's acting like a nutcase, so I'm currently hiding under the covers in bed while she pants and paws on the other side of them trying to get me out so she can chew on me.

This doesn't seem right does it? Sudden battery issues on my S5 but the Internet says it's a common fix. I did watch the reserve at 100 at 11am unplugged, and at 12:30 when I walked out I had the pleasure of checking the time to watch 38% life click down in one jump to 8%

No unusual browsin activities, noise, heat, etc. Just out of the blue the capacity went lol nope

Unless you can't live without the pre-installed news and weather widgets, I'd disable Unified Daemon (EUR) if you haven't already. Might try Greenify to hibernate unnecessary background processes, too. Doesn't take much in the way of setup and does a great job compared to other apps that claim to save battery life.

Just got back from watching Jurassic world and it's pretty sweet. I'd definitely recommend it, pretty solid movie, Chris Pratt is great in it, and it was very enjoyable.

E: also had some fun with a Porsche cayenne turbo on the way home and absolutely spanked him. Owner's eyes were wide open, he definitely didn't think my little Subaru would pull away that fast. drat those things have to be heavy, if the wiki is to be believed they have ~490 to 520hp (pretty sure it was a 2010+ model, although the intricacies of Porsche model years is sometimes lost on me) if it's the first gen then 440hp worst case. Having a sleeper is fun.

It was a little bit of friendly red light fun on an empty expressway, before somebody jumps down my throat about it.

I'd totally agree, except a couple of days before I installed Lollipop, wiped the phone and card, and reinstalled everything one-by-one, I had some app going apeshit on the battery with wake locks. Every once in a while I just think a bad update on an app rolls out and shits the bed.

My wife's coworkers are planning a surprise baby shower for her tonight at our place.

Plan is to get her out of the house for Jurassic World at 4:15 and tell her we've got dinner reservations afterward. I will conveniently forget my wallet and tell her we've got to go back to get it before dinner. I've never been a part of a surprise party before..kind of exciting, and she doesn't have any idea.

What if she goes "Oh its cool I got dinner"?

Huh. I just found out someone I deeply respect is coming out as transgender. Despite the gay / lesbian people I know that's actually the first TG I have ever personally known.

It actually worked out really well. I knew the wallet thing would work because we always use my card for the points. We pulled up the driveway and her coworkers had hung a balloon on the mailbox, and my wife said "are there a lot of people in our house right now?" :3:
