Decisions

I finally made up my mind. Not voicing it until it's final though, I am tired of a lot of talk and no actions.

I really want a new computer. I have one, but I got it like 4 1/2 years ago and I am tired of fixing it, tired of it not being able to handle more than one task at a time without taking longer than it would if I did them back to back rather than at the same time. Going for a laptop this time. I always disliked them but it was mostly the keyboards/size. I am looking at an Asus G73, it is rather large and heavy, but has a 10 digit keypad and when I type on it I don't feel claustrophobic. Unfortunately I probably wont get it until November (or later).

One last D-Faction event this year on Oct 1st, I will be going to that. First event I was disappointed in myself but turns out it was mostly my tires fault, Second event I did better but hated my tires on front almost as much as the first event and now want more power. This event it was suggested I drive faster. Makes it hard when the first corner is easily a 3rd gear entry and you have a stock KA24E. I know I can't keep the tires spinning. Hopefully I will get Jay/Landers/Ryan to ride along and give me some more pointers. Ryan did my first event but with my tire selection nothing I did made any difference. Hopefully I can make a run, get a suggestion and try it the next run. Slowly improve just in time to park my car for the winter... This event will be longer to my knowledge, starting at 1 instead of 4 but going until 8-9ish. Going to ask for the day off this time.

All my fun and games aside, gotta get some serious stuff figured out. After it's straight, it's on.

West Haven is fine minus being new and away from all the 240 guys I enjoy hanging out with. Life with a roommate is great when your GF is as awesome as mine. Otherwise I prefer to live solo I think. Still getting adjusted to not doing what I want with the drop of a hat/keeping a schedule with someone else, but making a valid effort and everything seems to be going smoothly.


I just realized I still havent put on my suspension arms. Definitely need to do that and get an alignment before Oct 1st. Fuck.

  1. I highly recommend Lenovo for laptops, specifically the ThinkPad series.

    I've owned 5 of them at this point and they've always been rock solid.
