Finally about to have my first cup of the day.

Weather has been hot as heck here in Cali. It has been 100+ for almost the whole entire week.

Just had a cup with some sugar in it. About to make a 4 hour drive today.

Where the heck is A4Cragman??
G'day all, sorry I've been MIA for a bit, I've turned from coffaholic to a workacoffaholic these days so getting online has been a bit of a challenge. Two jobs sucks, but the extra money sure is nice, even at the cost of not having had a single, full day off in over a month and a half. And now I'm starting classes again today to top it off. On the plus side to that, classes involves me being on my computer a lot more again so I should be around more frequently

I'm glad to read through the last couple pages and see that everyone's been well- sans krip's dental adventure; a week without coffee would be hell lol- and enjoying the summer and doing the most important thing: drinking up lotsa coffee ;P

Speaking of coffee, I just finished my last cup of the night, it was pretty awesome; had it over a couple smokes with some good friends and good conversation at the local coffee shop that stays open later than the one I work at; great way to round off the last day of summer break

Cragman, glad to hear from you... Sounds like you're doing well, in spite of all the work.

I stopped at a local shop this morning on my first day back to work, got me a mocha...

Cragman - Glad to see you're back around. Yeah, that week without coffee was pretty bad but thankfully the pain kept me from thinking and wanting coffee. I'm just glad it's all over now.

So what are you planning to spend your money on? Something for the car?

For sure guys, glad to be back; both here and back in school, I genuinely missed being up on campus as well as regular interface with the world outside Utah

As for the extra money, I've taken a wiser approach with it than stuff for the car. Much as I'd like to get some coils, projectors/HIDs and darker tint, I'm about to roll 180k on this car and I have no idea how it was treated in the past so I'm not keeping my hopes high for it to make it to another tbelt job in about 55k miles so I figured I'd be better off saving the money on upgrades, paying off current debts, and stuffing any extra cash that's not going to regular bills into a higher yield savings account so I can nab me a shiny B7 2.0t in a couple years without having to take a huge loan to do so

In the meantime, currently sipping some costa rican roast, straight black as always, and getting ready to get my study on ;P

B7 2.0T... excellent choice. But a few years from now the B8's will be a little more affordable (and you'll be a college grad making huge bank). And you have to admit, the B8's with the shiny LED running lights are simply amazing...

^ Long night?

I just had my first cup. It's been good so far.

Although I'm not too happy about the weather in California lately. Summer is coming to an end yet we've been getting 100+ weather for the past 2 weeks or so. WTF!
