Today is my birthday, but this time, something different.

Usually, I will post pictures of Mustangs or rally cars or Mustang rally cars, but this year, I’m not as excited. I didn’t make much progress on my project cars or in life; I planned lots and accomplished little. It’s stuck-in-a-rut city over here.

So in the spirit of a more pensive mood, two of my favorite things to contemplate: cars and mountains.

One of my favorite photographs not hung in a museum.

Happy pensive birthday dude.

Can’t be worse than my birthday this year. GF who I was pretty damn certain would last the distance broke up with me after 2.5 years, 3 days before the big day.

And your mustang runs, no? ;)

Well if it makes you feel any better, I’m contemplating a 2nd full time job to get out of my rut. I’m just hoping 80+ hours a week won’t literally kill me, but 60 hours isn’t cutting it anymore somehow. I don’t get it. The clock is suddenly ticking on the whole jobs thing though, so I’ve not much time to think about it...

I know that feel. But we can’t always measure seasons of our lives in years. We rarely see an accomplishment when we’re in the middle of it. Stay the course.

Happy bday regardless! What’s deal with the car in the first pic? Looks like a hill climb or circle track racer of some sort.

Happy Birthday to you too, November-Birthday buddy!

(Informal poll, 1) Do you like Novembers? 2) Has your birthday ever been grouped into Thanksgiving?)

Happy birthday fellow November birthday haver! Mine is the same as Mark Twain’s. Here’s to hoping the next 12 months bring more happiness and progress! :D

But the course has so many detours! And not the fun, scenic kind :(

It is tough to maintain the big picture and get down because of the lack of immediate gratification of immediate awesomeness. But thank you, I hope you’re staying on course too

Thank you, man.

Sorry about the ladyfriend, but hey, you’re going to have a sweet shed and even a sub-shed for parts!

And one of them does, but the next thing is paint! I almost just want to leave it as primer and body putty. -_-

I remember having two jobs and working 5:30AM to 10:30PM most days. Never again; just kept getting sick too easily (colds, flu, other infections) from the stress and not having time to clean my place. But I hope you have luck getting something good! Networking seems to key to getting lucky jobs, so maybe call up someone you haven’t talked to in a long time and see if they know someone who knows someone who needs something.

Thank you! Work is ordering some for another co-worker and me tomorrow, so that’s going for me!
