Today I just got back from the dentist and found out I need a root canal and crown on my bad tooth. Lotta pain in my mouth and wallet. The dentist felt sorry for me and gave me a 10% senior citizen discount, but it's still going to cost me well over $2K. Oh, and in case you are wondering, my Medicare insurance doesn't cover any of this.

Muffin Man, it's over so take a deep breath.
Three finals to go. I am so glad I won't be having the same shop instructor next semester because the drag of this semester and we could have learned more without her.

it really sucks when your professor is a detriment to the learning experience, ive been there and its so frustrating. its especially crap when theres only that one person who teaches xyz subject

Word.
I personally enjoy the feel of opiate painkillers, and for this reason (and my compulsive tendencies), I will never try H, or seek out a bottle of painkillers that hasn't been prescribed to me. I just need to work on crashing my bike and getting root canals more often I guess.

We have a few instructors but she was brought on this semester for our class. It felt like almost everyday I had no idea what the hell was going to happen because all kinds of random **** pissed her off. Then she told me I'm except from the final weld test because I passed the certification test but now I'm taking it anyway? I spent the last month practicing something else...

Today I ordered some stealthy black zipp decal kits to replace the loud white ones on my 404's.
I would like to convey my deepest sympathies to your bike monies. Gone too soon.

I think learning to track stand at red lights might be my "new" new years resolution. I'm good at doing the slow roll but the moment I come to an actual stop, I have about 3-5 seconds.
Getting back into skateboarding. There's a cozy 3' mini at the local park and I'm learning to ride transition. I feel like a teenager again and it feels great. I even have two coworkers to session with. Skagway, Alaska rules. Who wants to come visit?
i gave up trying to learn trackstanding 3 years ago, i just pace back and forth really slow in the crosswalk like a caged lion
pretty damn good at keeping my balance on the roadie going <1mph racheting the cranks tho lol
