Reconnect

What a productive day! I couldn’t sleep last night because I had practice at USC earlier in the evening. Soch finally went to session. It has been awhile. I think he got fatter lol. Shhh.. I haven’t been “practicing” because there’s no real goal. I’m not getting ready for a competition. It’s always a “check” to see if I can still do this or that. Over time, you forget some tips and tricks. For example, my 2000s. I forgot to whip my shoulders. When I did it by “accident”, I got more rotations and I was straight longer. When that moment comes when you realized what you forgotten, it’s refreshing. 

Anyways, we went to JJs afterwards. You readers would say, “as usual.” No. We all would say that but I’ve been avoiding JJs and have been doing a good job at it. The Thai Iced Tea hits the spot. You just down cup after cup. When I got home, I guess it does keep me up. I had to pee 3 times while trying to sleep. Each piss was like I had 2 beers prior to relieving myself. Anyways, I went back to my old habit of sleeping at 6am. I said if I’m not asleep by 7, I’m going to the junkyards. And I did, at 8. 

Went to Riverside. Didn’t find anything for my car or imports. Decided to check out the domestics to see how this other market is and it’s true. So hard to find in good condition. I also seen them gone. I’m too late. Lost my chance. I did get 3 “jdm” cupholders though lol. And only the best condition. I was done with that yard. Paid and left. As I was slowly driving out, another integra drove in. It was fixed up like the scene is here: hellaflush and stickers on the windows. I put a smirk on my face when we cross each other and the guy had to gas his car. It was loud and ugly. I kept on slowly making my way out. There’s no need for that. 

Anyways, as I got to Ontario, I found an armrest in good condition! Too bad it’s not for my car though or else I would definitely keep it and install it on my car. Put down my bag and- where did my screwdriver go? I left it in one of the cars in Riverside. I was gonna walk out and buy another screwdriver from one of those guys selling tools outside but there was people in the next car over. They might take it. I just walked out of the aisle and walked back. I asked them to borrow a screwdriver. Thank goodness! Got it, stuffed it in my bag and returned his tool. I walked all over the yard. Nada. Paid and left. Then went to buy the screwdriver.

On to Pomona. This yard charges more but it has its gems. I recognized the cars. They haven’t put new cars in. Walked all over. Almost nada. Got a pair of fog caps and a rubber boot off a broken civic headlight. The perfect size for my jdm headlights. The last one I needed for my set that I’m going to finish reconditioning. Well, almost finish. And this is why sometimes this yard is good, even though their prices are higher: the cashier let me have them for free. 

Went home in time to do laundry. 4pm and electricity is at a cheaper rate. Ate my leftovers for lunch and was about to knock out. My body is crashing. No going out tonight for me. I was already falling asleep waiting for the first load of laundry to finish. I showered and was sure I’m going to knock out before I can finish my second load. I uploaded the pictures I took of a couple items to sell. It’s almost 10:30pm. I’ve made it and finished dinner too. Time to brush my teeth and into bed. Got to do paperwork on Saturday.
