She just got a clinical research job at Yale Med School starting in a week, will be doing masters there for Bio, and then taking the MCATs for med school, and I am praying she goes to Yale for that. Just being a CR shes already making good money, and it only goes up from there...

Already making plans to head to the Mercedes Dealership, LOL!

I'm 99% Im moving out in Jan for 4 months, then down near work after that.

I wish I could fastforward what I have now 10 years. GFs going to med school soon, and I just got settled into my Engineering job... Then I MIGHT have some money to play with. Until that time, broke as a joke.

I'm in the same boat. My Fiance and I are currently looking for a home. I work for a software company and she works in customer service. We both have our BA's. Me being NOT a school person struggled for that BA.. I hate school! haha

Hell yeah. She'll make good on that. My girlfriend graduates at MSU in December with ber BA in Nursing. She's a clinical nurse at a hospital nearby. She's gonna take the test to be an RN shortly after she graduates. I can't believe she's almost done. She's up late every night doing homework and studying. I've never seen her so busy as these last few months.

P.S. Mercedes dealership. uh--oh...New MB's have excellent styling.

I'm not a school person, but mom and dad made me go... paid for it though, and I do get to use my degree here at work.

Yeah my friends GF is a nusring student and she has it rough. I figure when my GF is doing med school it will be some late nights and a lot of stress, but the gleam she gets in her eye when she sees, hears or does that stuff makes it worth it.

Yeah she has her eye on a C300 as a little gift to herself. She asked if it would bother me her having a nicer car... I laughed and told her that just means we will be driving that everywhere instead of my Audi.

We haven't done chit today really. It's Halloween and people keep bringing in food.....Pizza, Wings, Donuts...jeez. I just left for an hour. My womenz picked me up, we went to two stores to look for Halloween customes.....

Yeah riiight! There was everybody and their brother there. The place was emptied out. We both DO NOT have time during the week to go shopping for stuff because we're busy with school. That resulted in a big fight and it's not looking good for the party tomorrow night.

So....we haven't really done crap to the truck because of all this. We have to put new e-brake pads inside the rear rotors, then do a couple tie rods. We have just been lazy. But the cabs switched over as I said yesterday and it runs. The frame on the old truck is kinked in another locaton further than the one I showed up top. Here's the pics. The old frame with the 4.6L drivetrain still attached.

The core support needs to be pulled out and replaced. That will be done once the truck is almost all put together.

Baker College. They have many locations in Michigan. I go to the biggest campus unfortunately. Lots and lots of people, but nowhere near what a university campus is. I really shouldn't complain, I'm just tired of going.

Thanks. The back room is a mess. I'm supposed to paint this guys tail gate as a side job, and I don't know when I'll do it. The 4.6L motor, trans and T-case will be inventoried and sold. Most of the suspension sells, the rear end will sell. Then we'll cut the frame in half and throw it in the dumpster for scrap. At least it's all easy to pull out now.
