I rarely (if ever) do these personal posts, so deal with it

You have an article due for one job Monday morning, work at a 2nd job both weekend days, you find out over Instagram the former love of your life and one of the main reasons you got sober has moved to Finland, on the weekend your younger brother turns 21, when, because I guess the universe hit DIFFICULTY LEVEL: EXPERT, your parents are leaving for a week to go to Cali and putting you in charge of keeping things orderly?

Brace yourself, this is gonna be a bumpy ride.

Have an Accord Coupe for your time

Lol’d so hard

But good luck with that other stuff. I understand how you feel with the girl situation, I messed things up with a girl I really truly cared about and when it looked like things were getting back to normal, she moved to New Zealand. It sucks but keep your chin up, your right foot down, and you’ll make it through it.

I’d love to deal with it mate, but I did not really understand WHAT the problem was.

you can get through it and look back as a better stronger person and be grateful for it all and might even think it wasn’t such a big deal.

+You have 2 jobs instead of none.

+At least one of those jobs is challenging instead of tedious.

+Your ex is no longer a bother.

+Your brother is about to par-tay.

+Your parents are out of town.

What exactly is the problem here?

Ask yourself this, Mr. Benjamin “100$” Rolland. What would a cadillac do when there are potholes in the road of life? The answer? Pretend like they aren’t even there and cruise onwards towards the future.......and the next gas station.

We’re supposed to have some nice weather this weekend smaybe wash and wax and buff the caddy and go for a road trip somewhere. Burn a few gallons just because you can. Find an odd cafe or store in a podunk town and drive there. Soon you won’t notice those potholes at all.

I got some shitty news in a shitty way and i got a long weekend that'll really test my sobriety ahead of me.

1) nothing really with the job, just got writers block

2) yeah, not so much “challenging” as “awesome” (I get to drive a ‘57 Bel Air next week and ride shotgun in a raptor trophy truck the week after)

3) she wasn’t my ex, more one of my closest friends who I was hopelessly (stupidly) in love with

4) yeah inb4 his sketchy ass friends bring coke and weed over

5) I'm 5 months sober and my morale is way down as of about an hour and a half ago

RE #4: Again, that’s a plus in my book, but I can see how that would be majorly taxing to your sobriety. I am a big proponent of any adult’s sovereignty over their own consciousness. As such, I respect any person’s choice to alter their own state of mind, but also as someone who has struggled with substance use at times I understand your frustration on that front. Stay strong and maybe just tell your bro ‘no coke.’ If you can resist the temptation of alcohol, you can surely resist a little weed. Coke, on the other hand, can have a serious pull.

Ah. You immediately thought of the 150k northstars owned by people who never changed the oil......I thought more along the lines of the late 60s eldorado. One last car to uphold the slogan “The standard of the world”. And honestly......It’s a tough call for me between one of these and an old mercedes SL for “cool vintage car to drive to work sometimes”.

I also don’t want that shit in our fuckin’ house 1) because it is illegal.

2) do drugs on your own property, not mine

Eldorado’s cooler.

Old Mercedes is just bleh to me, and I see so damn many R107s a week I stopped noticing them.

107s are ugly as sfuck. W113s are the absolute pinnacle of SL design though. It’s been downhill ever since. Bit of a shame they got it so right so early on. No shouting or crazy ass lines. Timeless, simple, clean, PROPER german design and engineering. A bit boring in pictures but I had the pleasure to sit in one at a car show and it made me wonder why in the hell you would buy a brand new disposeable SL when these are CHEAPER and will still outlive the new ones.

But hand on heart........I have a soft spot for the last eldorados for very unexplainable reasons. If my FiST gets in a wreck, I’m taking what’s left after the loan payoff and dailying a nice one of these for a while while I save up some cash.

Just be up front with your brother. Voice your concerns in an honest way and lay down the rules. I have a younger brother myself and have been in a very similar situation numerous times. As long as I’m straightforward with him he’s usually down to keep it on the level. People on coke though, they’re usually apt to keep it on the DL to begin with as they generally aren’t the most generous of party-goers. Just make it known that anyone who’s caught with the booger sugar will asked to leave. It’s not the perfect solution but its something.

Don't get a N* Eldorado unless (A) it's a 2002, or (B) the heads have been studded. Trust me on that one. They're great cars, I love em, hell, I love Northstars, my favorite power plant ever, but the pre 2002s were seriously flawed.

Actually yeah, I was looking at a 2002 for these pics lol. And if you get one that isn’t blown up yet, they are easy to save. Once they blow?........Not so much.

But back to the original topic - I seriously recommend not being in the house if your brother plans to use it as a party base. Head to a friends house and play gran turismo or something. But if he can’t respect you needing to be sober then call your parents and tell them what’s up. Say you’re out for the night because you suspect drugs and excess alcohol and you don’t want any part in it so if the house is trashed or yoru bro gets arrested, it’s on him.

Yeah my bro I’m not worried about, he smokes a bit of grass but wouldn’t do it in the house, but his twin friends....ones a coke head and the other and his gf are junkies..... I don't want them in my house, might find myself a little light in the possessions afterward, if you get what I'm saying.

1: Keep it up.

2: Put some care into your car to try and not think about it.

3: REMOVE ALL VALUABLES FROM HOUSE

4: Assert that you’re in charge.
