Busy Busy

Well, I've been really busy the past few weeks. Had my dad's retirement party a couple of weeks ago. It was pretty fun. I got drunk as usual (got to take advantage of the open bar). I also got fitted for a new set of clubs. D, G, and K got me a gift cert. to Golfsmith. I got a set of Lynx H3 irons (3-5 are hybrids and 6-sw are cavity back irons). I've got to say that Dublin's Golfsmith salespeople are a hell of a lot better than Fremont's Golfsmith. The guys at Dublin GS were very helpful, explaining everything and also testing me for custom clubs. Fremont's GS didn't help me one bit with clubs. Oh well, they suck. I've also been trying to fix my car. I installed my new hoses and thermostat. So, I thought everything was cool. I took the M3 out for a drive and wouldn't you know it, I got a big puddle of blue/green coolant under my car. So J and I had to take the air box, plenum and alternator off again and torque all the clamps down to make sure the hoses wouldn't leak again. After putting the hoses back, I had a little problem with my alternator. Took my alternator into Autozone to get it tested. Everything was ok. So we cleaned all the connections and popped everything back in. Took the car out and no leaks or dummy lights coming on. So I guess everything is prepped and ready for this weekend. I'm going to Marina Airport and running the M3 in a car control clinic. I'm really excited. I want to find the limits of my car and myself as a driver. Hopefully I can have someone take pics of me at the clinic while I'm driving. So we'll see.
