Default Just my kindof week

Me and my girlfriend were at Sonic gettin some ice cream.. i killed my truck cause we were talkin to some friends. Crank it back up and we are leaving... the Fan speed doesnt work on 1, 2, or 3.. So i just run it on 4.... not bad, but the air still worked... so its all good...
Got my buddy (skinnyman) to get me a resistor for the blower motor, got that put in and all is good...

Me and SemiHemi were at the Range Sunday just sighting in some rifles and sending rounds down range... On the way home we were goofing off and ran the ole truck up to 130 or so and slowed down... had to do it one more time.. ran her up pretty fast and slowed down..... few seconds later we noticed the air wasnt cold comin out of the vents....

We got to talkin, Semihemi said that it might be the High pressure switch...

I put the blower speed on 3... i never felt the Compressor kick on.... got to thinking...

I just guessed and said the Belt broke... ... it is 7 years old and has 165k miles on it..

Got to church and sure enough,, belt was missing...

Got home and threw one on there that Skinnyman had brought home to me a few months ago...

Good thing is...it only cost me a supper........ haha

Didnt get any sleep Sunday night cause we were goofing off and went camping... went Coyote hunting At day break monday morning and went to eat at my parents for Labor day.. finally got home and was goin to go to sleep till my girlfriend got off work...

i was asleep for about an hour and my boss calls me......... i dont remember what he said... hahaha.... he called me later on and told me that im leaving Tuesday morning bout 6am... be gone for 2 weeks, in texas..

So now im just sittin in a hotel room in Laredo,,,,, finish up here Saturday, then goin to Victoria and do a job there and hopefully gettin home Thursday or Friday...


Hey atleast im gettin alot of over time!!!!!

Meth Kit and Some Sticky tires....
Oh and a XD SubCompact .40....

Maybe the belts fly off at a certain mph. I've noticed mine comes off when I go faster than 110.
