On another note, KITTENS!

There's a bunch of cats in my backyard, seriously. My mom feeds them in some sort of humanitarian effort. We never loved animals, not until we got our first cat three years ago. And after that, it's like we can't stop loving animals, even if it's digging a deep, deep hole in our wallets. Really deep.

I took a ton of photos today since I had to take care of one of the litter's moms, the big brown one. She's chillin on the fence in the sun in one of these photos, that's all she wanted to do after the surgery.

9 kittens are running around back here, CUTENESS OFF THE CHARTS

LOOOOOONG CHAMPS

Finally got something nice to replace those stinky enkei mesh











Old classy wheels don't like big calipers though, so an 8mm spacer was required and that calls for extended studs. champs are 15x7-1 which is now 15x7-9 with spacers, so the front fenders were pulled ~1cm. USE A ROLLER, LOOK FACTORY SPEC

California LIVING!



You know, it wasn't until I bought this 72' 240z a few weeks ago that my passion for cars was really rejuvenated. When I started taking core classes for my photo journalism major last semester, I just took a breath and steered clear from spending too much money and time around cars.

Ended up spending money on camera equipment, yada yada. Left the s12 dangling in my garage, didn't do much with it I suppose. But the Z has always been some sort of dream car for me and at the time I had always thought "it'd make a classy car to cruise in." So after spending a few months searching for the right car, I'd finally found it.

It's a solid 72', the interior is wrecked, a bit of metal was hit, but the body is super straight and it's l24 was rebuilt, coupled with triple webers. The car was the right price and after a couple burnouts in a lot with it's excited previous owner, it was back home with me.

Had some free time today and I drove it on highway 1 along Ocean Beach and it feels just right. Gotta say, I've never been so excited about owning a car or planning out its future.

The car needs a lot of love, so this "restoration" project begins this summer.

Ughh, I can't stand it.

There are nine kittens running around in my back yard, and they are CUTE. There are two mothers and they both feed all the kittens, it's like they take turns.

Really though, I need to take moar photos
