I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

i had a bad day yesterday (pics)

Post by idreamidrive » March 12, 2006

so yesterday started off good, well not really. i walk outside of my apartment to find that it is raining. i was mad that i parked underneath the carport, my car needed the rain, but i remembered that i was going to be at work for 6 hours and it would get "washed" there. but anyways. i was happy that it was raining, hasn't rained here in about 5 months. i get done with work and try to test out my new camera, took a pic of my car. went to start up my car again and it would start, the starter wouldn't engage the flywheel. so here i am fucked.
Image so its raining and im supposed to leave for utah to go snowboarding for spring break. im like... i know its raining but i need to go. so i changed my starter in the rain. worst part was that the napa starter, one of the bolts, was too fat to have the cable hook up to it. so i had to cut the wire and put a new fitting on it. i thought this would fix it, but still won't engage the flywheel. the spining sound sounds so much better now, but im still fucked, had the car towed to the saturn dealer and they aren't going to be able to work on it till monday. Hopefully, HOPEFULLY, it will get fixed on monday and i can head out. but till then i am stuck in phoenix without a car and four days off from work. and apparently you got to be 21 to rent a car. i was hoping the dearlership would be nice and just loan me a car. nope, so i got fucked on that one. sorry that there are no pics of my car on jacks or it being towed, was super pissed off and forgot to take some. but i do have some pics of snow in phoenix...
Image Image and im still trying to figure out how to use my camera. so sorry
