Wow what an interesting week for sure. Unfortunately I have no pictures for this week so I'll just have to post some incredibly hot honey to make you all happy. Hmmm who should it be, well we'll come back to that later I guess and tell you that this weeks hottie of the day will feature lovely ladies in Chinadoll dresses also known as a Cheongsam, Qipao and other names. One of the sexiest in my opinions dresses known to man. But anyways on to the weekly review.
The week was mostly the same old same old really nothing too exciting until the weekend when my roommate tried to kill me. We were messing around with the Turbo charged RX8 trying to calibrate the newly installed wideband but it wasn't working so removed it from the car, replacing it with the plug. Only problem is since the car exhaust was rather warm it wasn't tightened down. Then comes the next day and a trip out to the Nissan dealer to see if they had any 370Zs in stock (which they didn't) well on the way home we noticed that there was this really weird vibration coming from the engine bay of the car. Well it was only happening when the gas was applied so it was rather odd. About five minutes later we hear this object hitting the underside of the car (like a rock when you hit it with the tire or something) and the vibration was getting a bit more noticeable. So we figure that is what happened but decide to check on it at the next exit off the freeway.

Yup, sure enough missing plug and a massive exhaust leak right into the engine compartment. Well now what do we just keep going home like that and open the windows (while it's snowing and very much cold) or do we try to get a hold of someone to pick us up so we can go home get the other plug and come back. Of course we drive home giggling like school girls at the sound of a now very much race car sounding car of course the exhaust fumes may have had some effect on our giggling too though. Anyways we made it home safe and sound but smelling just a bit like car exhaust. Now we just need to remember to replace the plug before it goes anywhere but since it really started to snow like crazy that doesn't seem to be any time soon. Anyways a fun little adventure. Before we went for the drive though I had went to my grandma's to pick up her car to get the tires changed over to the studded tires for her and just in the neck of time too as the snow ended up sticking around and accumulating something near 4 or so inches in the last couple of days so that's both good and bad news.
After a quick nap after the adventure in the RX8 I headed off to the weekly Anime meetup to watch some anime with friends. This time it was pretty packed for a change which is a good thing. Watched some anime then headed back out into the now very slick and snowy winter weather conditions. Got home and yet again headed back out to play in the snow with the roommate in the Subaru Outback grabbed the camcorder and off in search of a large parking lot we went. Got a few videos and uploaded them to youtube. The focusing wasn't the best but it was a bit of late night fun anyways. Should of gone in the morning but the roommate had other things to do so I just did laundry instead.
The drive to work wasn't horribly bad and not nearly as bad as I thought it was and by tomorrow afternoon all the roads will be cleared again until the next winter storm blows in. Also only another week before Christmas. So until then have a safe and fun week.
