After many nights in the garage, tinkering with the Jeep. I finally got the head gasket replaced. I also, ended up replacing the intake manifold. We cracked it while we were putting it back in on Saturday night. So Sunday was spent driving around to different junk yards looking for a replacement. We went to U-Pull in Rosemount. U-Pull in East Bethel. Then ended up getting one at Johns Auto in Blane.
I spent Saturday morning in the DMV getting current tabs for it. I never thought that the DMV could be as busy as it was on Saturday morning. I walked in at 10:30am and grabbed a number. I pulled number 35. I looked at what number they were on.....11. Damn. I didn't end up leaving until about 12:00. They closed at 11:30, but since I had a number they had to help me. One poor bastard grabbed a number, left for something and came back and they had passed his number by one, and they wouldn't help him. Sucks to be him.
I was off work today, so I was able to go and visit with my friend Josh, who I haven't seen in a long time. It was good to catch up. His kids are growing like weeds! We hung out in the garage and he showed me his buggy that he's working on. Then we went inside and watched some TV and played some Guitar Hero. The we went upstairs and played LEGOS with his son Cody. On the way home I decided to go get some dinner at Chipotle. I was driving down hwy 101/169 on my way to county road 18 and I went under an overpass, and found myself spinning out of control! I ended up gaining control enough to direct myself off the road into the ditch and back out, unscathed! I guess I found out the hard way that the roads where icy. I forgot how easily the short wheelbase of my Jeep can go out of control. I guess I'll be a little more careful from now on.
