gooooaaaaaalllllzzzz

today we’re supposed to be working on automotive goals…

…but with it being 58°, but feeling like 55°, i’ll be delaying my entrance into the outside world a bit.

no real movement on anything since the last bit, with the exception of the fix-a-flat failing on monday so i dumped the whole can into the tire in a panic and now we seem to be good? part of today is supposed to be me figuring out finances so i can just get a new set of wheels, which will at least end this leaky nightmare once and for all.

betty still sits with engine trouble, but i’m hoping to fix that today.

i have two more plans for grey’s locked down lug bolt – first, check a 15mm socket i got to see if it will work in the wheel, and if not, i’m going to attempt to glue the lug key to the lug and see if that holds well enough to get the job done. it’s a total hail mary, but if i can’t get a tear out socket to do the job, it might be all i have left.

so we’ll see how that all goes.

on the upside, one of my ridiculous goals last week (and i came up with it kinda late in the game) was to do five different workouts at five different gold’s in the same week (hence, the header for today) and that one i DID accomplish, which given that my physical issues are the main hurdle lately, should be a sign i can fight back…

5:12 FAWGAF (for anyone who gives a fuck):

grey – socket didn’t work…setting up amazon returns on all that shit, drop tomorrow, see what kinda refund i can get. i’ll get a clean, new tooth key, drop him on the two flats, and run to a local tire spot and see if they can get lug number ten under control…

betty – swapped out both vanos solenoids, which blanked out THAT check engine code, but she’s still chugging and smoking and having issues, and the code she’s throwing they say is a “check out that other code” code, but there now IS no other code. i’m gonna go talk to chris (my bmw guru) on tuesday and see what he recommends as the next step.

m – back wheels were a little low on psi when i got up this morning (supposed to be colder tonight) so i topped ’em off and we’ll see where we’re at mañana – i was so sore after being bent over the front of betty for three hours that i decided to just chill with nik and start a new netflix show (big mistakes – recommended so far)
