I don't drink, don't own a shop, so I don't really give a ****, but that's my 3rd party, objective, opinion

Well I have decided to take my Z to RS Motors in Burnsville over DB Performance for a few reasons.

1. Better customer service ( responded to my emails in a timely fashion even while preparing for an event he was going to in Cali.)
2. Cheaper labor quote overall for the same amount of work. ( like 3k less )
3. Closer to my dads house in Eagan where all my parts are at currently.

sure there are more things just can't think of them atm they just rubbed me the right way.

I have missed so many movies and TV shows I'll have to catch up on. I think that is the hardest part of a deployment is coming home and trying to be normal again while trying to catch up on what you missed.

You're up early!

It's leg day. Did cardio the other day, but I'm still avoiding upper body lifting for now.

Yeah, I've been healing really well. Therapist and docs are amazed. The most I've done so far is the elliptical that lets me hold onto the handles. Helps the blood flow through the arms.

Eating steel cut oats now. Ugh...

Oh while I was at the movie theater I noticed there is a new xmen Movie coming out this year and a sequel to rise of the planet of the apes tho I'm a little skeptical on thIs one because of new director and new cast. The old director was replaced because they set a deadline to have it done and hee was worried he wouldn't have enough time to get it done so they found someone else so I have the feeling they rushed it and won't be as good as the first
