  1. I am sitting here at 1 in the morning, I got home from working on the touring at 11PM. I cant sleep! I made some great progress tonight and am all pumped up. But, I am here stilll wound up!!!!

    I know some of you do the same. You ever wake up in the middle of the night to write down an idea? Or go out to the shop and work in the AM?

    It is 3 here and I could sleep but since I'm at work that may not be a good thing.
    Did you get my pm about that number?

    I hear, man. Just got home from work (12:30 am here), winding down with a beer and some herb, thinking about the work on my '57 truck. Springsteen CD ("The River" album) playing, wishing I had a garage with good flourescent lights and damn good heater to do more work on it, tonight.
    Damn, Employment's such a distraction. Some sort of bump in the road that pays for the toll charge.
    That project's got me so restless, I seem willing to risk getting to work late, lately, over it (I keep underestimating clean-up/tarp up time). At this stage, I'm trying to learn when to say "when", with all the thorough body work. I'm an amateur with prep work, yet have quickly become a perfectionist, at the same time.
    Yeah, I'm wired about it, all the while trying to unwind. Good post, man.

    No.............I'm sleeping like a little round baby. I think I even have a smile on my face! Yes, yes I can see it in my dream.
    Wait! I see a huge black, hairy spider stalking me. He's very hungry and wants me for dinner. He's running for me as I turn to run away but my legs are under water.CAN'T MOVE FAST AT ALL! THE 15 FOOT SPIDER IS GAINING ON ME!!! I'M RUNNING IN SLOW MOTIO-ARGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

  11. I have been laying in bed contemplating the how to's of something on my 54. All of the sudden at 12:30 it comes to me. Out to the garage I go before it leaves my mind knowing I have to be awake at 5:00am to go to work.....
    Its' a sickness I say, but would not cure it fo nuthin!

    It's a disease. I try to quit work about 4:30 to 5PM, go out to the shop, work until about 8:30, get on the puter read HAMB stuff until about 10PM, take my Tylenol sleepy time, go to bed, read old car mags until about 11:30. Some mornings I go out to shop about 6AM work until 7:30 shower, go upstairs turn on work computer. Take lunch break, go to shop for 15 or 20 minutes. Know what you mean.

    I think this DISEASE is contageous. I've had it for a while and now my son has got it and he's only 10 years old. I some times can't find my car magazines and I start bitchin' about the Mailman probably keeping them 'til he's done reading them; then I check my son's back pack and there they are. Hey even named our new hound dogs Hemi and Deuce. ( [​IMG] [​IMG]tear,tear)"they grow so fast.
    I've even dreamt that I'm in the garage using the floor jack and I'm woken up by my wife 'cuz I'm twisting her arm. [​IMG]

    sickening! I tell ya, just sickening!
