Well, ain't that a bitch.

I swear to God, if I don't stop getting ahead of myself, I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I'm all over the place, and I thought for sure I wasn't working this weekend. I just found out that, sure enough, I'll be at the warehouse all this weekend. Why can't it be the 2nd, already?? ahhhh! 

Anxiety has set in all over again, and it only took 30 minutes. My boss will be back this weekend, and every male (okay, *normal* male) will be bitching about the Stupidbowl. Which means that I'll have to hear it all weekend, and I was prepared to not have to hear it. Point I'm trying to make is, I had the right days scheduled, just didn't have them right in my head. I need the time off desperately! And this is why! So my boss comes back, that should be interesting, but you know, I'm just going to hop on my machine, throw some pallets in the isles, and ignore her. All weekend long. So now I have to get back in the mindset of a three day work week. *trudges off to war...* 

Okay, so on a positive note: Houston Auto Show. One word: Awesome!! There were some very nice cars there. I got to play with the trucks, but they wouldn't let me play with the Lamborghini's. Haha, big liability issue. :P I got to see Reed Timmer's storm chasing vehicle, the Dominator, up close. And man is that thing *sturdy*! I'm not sure who's vehicles would win, TIV, or the Dominator in that category. The Dominator looks so much bigger in person. The lady running the booth (Reed wasn't there at the show, he's up in OK with Dom1), even opened the door and let me look inside (I was asked not to push any buttons LOL). Amazing! The inside of the vehicle (the base vehicle) is a Chevy Tahoe. I could see all the holes where the cameras used to film 'Storm Chasers' were drilled, up in the headboard. The coating used to protect the Dominator from flying debris is Line-X coating. Very cool! Same stuff they use in the military. I got pics, but no video. Look on my facebook page, they'll be posted very soon. 

I saw the two cars I'd had my eye on when I get mine traded in, the Honda Civic, and the Scion TC. Beautiful cars! But I'd say my favorites at the show (minus the Dominator) were the Ford Mustangs. The Shelby was absolutely GORGEOUS. I love cars and trucks!!

I'm off to post pics, and to sulk in the fact that now I have to work all weekend with the rest of the yahoos. 

I seriously need to get my head on straight.

Oh, and FYI, they didn't let me push any ugly cars off the roof. Fuckers.
