My First Apartment :D

[351cat]

Pending application approval, i will be getting my first apartment on April 1st. Already put down half the deposit :D anyway, i saw an opportunity to play w/ the new phone, and took a quick video of a walkthrough of the place. It's poor quality, but its a phone, lol.

SWEET!!!! Party at Brad's house!

Haha, no parties, the manager was very candid on his stance on parties. And yes Miller, i'll be moving in on April fools day, but this isnt a joke. I'm super excited!!!

[2TonCat]

Not even a quiet riot?

Not even a quiet riot?

Having ppl over isnt a deal. he's talkin about the loud music, drunk arses in the parking lot, funny smelling smoke, kind of party.

My Application was approved today and he told me i can move in as soon as I get the Electricity in my name, i can move in and the rest of march's rent will be free. This guy is real cool, he's lettin me pay half deposit now, other half by the end of april, and aprils rent will be 300 instead of the normal 455 (first month discount, move in special) So all i gotta do is call the electric company and get the shiz in my name, and im in. :D

Yup, i've got a crappy run down Futon your welcome to :D You thinkin about makin it to the 18th meet? Wasnt really expecting you to, but if u do that'd be sweet. Sir Will is gonna be there ;)

And no garage space, unfortunately, but the lot where i'll be parking is shaded pretty well to help minimize sun damage... You all will laugh your arse off when you see my 'scort, it's so pathetic lol....

[Melon]

Nah - I'd like to, but actually planning to go the other direction.. I think I'm heading to Minnesota on a parts run.

You gonna get you a 15 percent Overdrive crank pulley? Lol. Remember that conversation? it was amusing...

[Melon]

Actually, I'm getting an overdrive pulley for the alt. I'm tired of the lights being dim so I'm thinking that if I overdrive the alt, it'll put out more volts, in turn make the electric system more effecient and make my headlights brighter. I'm just starting with a 10% on that - I don't want to blind oncoming traffic.

The way it sounds, I'll be bringing home a truck load of parts - a local guy is taking advantage of me going up with a truck to bring home parts. But first, I haveta get my truck running right. Code came up today for Cylinder 7 misfire :( Hope it's just the COP (coil on plug)

I know what a COP is... i used to work at a ford dealer for pete's sake ;) lol.
It could also be a effed up coil boot, i remember replacing a lot of those back in the day... we used to switch the coil from the misfiring cylinder w/ a different one, to see if the code moved w/ the coil. Works well :D

[Melon]

Ah, didn't know that :D

And that's my plan - move it to another cylinder to see if the code moves. If it does, then I'll replace the COP and boot and hope it fixes the issue.

-Melon

[351cat]

we used to replace the #4 COP a lot. condensation from the ac lines drips on 'em and takes 'em out... so everytime we saw P0304, we were like, "order us a COP" lol

[Melon]

Mine is cylinder #7 actually :D I just hope I can find the one I've got around. I bought one a while ago, but don't remember where I put it.

Yeah, i know. I was just reiterating the fact that i know what C.O.P's are. :D Reminiscing, as it were...

[2TonCat]

hehe, Maybee you can finish putting those COPs on that DOHC car :P

[351cat]

I fully intend to if he still has them... one of the first things i was gonna do actually. :D

[2TonCat]

Then you need to DROP IT!!!

The SLK230 guys don't like being passed in a corner by a cougar. True story.

I bet... I'd be willing to go so far as to say that they dont like to be passed by anything anywhere, lol... Those cars lengthen the Penis of the driver about 8 inches and they hate having that stomped on. (in case you cant tell, i'm very anti overly-extravagant car) :) sry to anyone that has one, just my opinion.

And first i'm gonna get the parts together to do the rear disc conversion... then i'll drop it. I've already got the spindle/hub and bracket thanks to jason, so all i need are rotors calipers and hoses... which for all brand new aftermarket pieces is about 400 bucks :eek:

Everything's gonna go slow though, b/c i'm gonna make sure i can pay rent, eat, and keep the electricity on first and foremost.

Way good call :P Food > *

I wish I could move out, but that's not going to happen. It would take me $60k a year part time to be able to afford that, and college. Nothxplzkthx.

[351cat]

Nothxplzkthx.

Allow me to try and decipher... "No thanks please, thanks" close? lol. If you ever decide you've had enough, you could always come crash on my couch, lol. It'd be pretty cheap (but not free :p) lol.

[2TonCat]

Hehe, thanks.

I'm a vendictive ~~~~~~~ though. Part of my getting back at my dad for sucking as a parent is NOT moving out. I eat his food. If he pisses me off, I tell him to F off, and go elsewhere for a while-- taking a box of cheereos or something.

[351cat]

Well i'm officially moved in (technically) i dont have everything moved yet, but i've got the essentials... TV, PC, Surround sound PS3 all hooked up. :D Havent moved furniture yet, cuz i've worked 14 hours in the last 24, lol... Prolly be sunday before i get furniture moved. I managed to get my futon mattress here, so i have something to Sleep on.

Me=Excited :)

[351cat]

Free Internet FTMFW!!!

Apparently one of my neighbors has an unsecured wireless network... I powered up my computer and it automatically connected to it. :D Is wrong to take advantage of this untill i get my own? (probably beginning of next month) I'm not doin anything other than checking the boards and my mail...

[2TonCat]

Congrats man!!!!!

As for the wireless... It's illegal to use theirs. Other than that, don't worry about it.... If you can find out who it is, maybee you can secure it for them in return for being able to use it time to time.

[Young-SC-Owner]

Eh, just use it...
Congrats!
Id take a video of my APT but idk how to uploa
