Still here and updates in general
Posted 6 months agoYeah I know it's been probably years but yes finally something even if it's a journal. Been honestly here the whole time just either commenting on pictures and such to just browsing. I know I haven't really posted anything regarding the story I began or well anything really here and honestly I feel terrible about that so apologies. Other places I've been much more active (Bluesky for instance even with art of my sona or just gaming). Moved to a better place though some other changes in life have happened. Roxanne the Camaro has been gone for years now as have the Nova. One due to family life falling apart and the Nova just because I don't really have a place to keep it anymore. Jax the Accord is still around (even after a few hits, not my fault) and well we do have one new car, a 2019 Rav-4. As soon as I can I'll start hopefully posting things again on site though if not now I'm still at least here to chat.
An update on my life in general
Posted 7 years ago*in a Robin Williams like voice*
GOOD EVENING FA! It's the Unknown back again from wherever in this crazy place called the world I hide.
*stops that voice*
Anyhow I'm back so I guess throw a parade or something. Life has been... well rough for the past few months. From working on the Nova, to the fact that I've been dealing with some issues (like my writers block which is cured) I've found time to come back. In car talk Roxanne has a nitrous kit put onto her not long ago for some extra kick. Jax is rolling on Falkens now and is fixing to have exhaust work done soon, the Nova is being a Nova as the transmission is built and paid. You should see some pics of that soon as well so go nuts as stuff from me is coming soon!

Drive. (A crack at poetry)
Posted 8 years ago(I just wanna see what you all think)
O the thrill of the drive
The thrill of the rush, the sight of the chase
It's all the same, but at the same different
For me the feeling of the high
Of the speed... of the sounds
The cusp of control is a drug to me.
O the thrill of the drive
What might be a drug for me
May not be the same for you
You may not like the sights
The sounds, or the high
But the only way to figure it out
Is to drive
O the thrill of the drive
In the end the only question is
Do you want to try?
Try the thrill of the drive?
O the thrill of the drive
The thrill of the rush, the sight of the chase
It's all the same, but at the same different

O the thrill of the drive

Do you want to try?
Try the thrill of the drive?
Really Jax?
Posted 8 years agoAlright so an update on my cars for now: Roxanne's tire is all patched up and she is running strong again. Jax on the other hand... not so much. He is finally on the lift at the transmission shop so that's being squared away, so we went to looking. While looking we find yet another problem which was that my CV Axle on his right front side started slinging dope (slang term for differential fluid which in this case is one unit with the transmission because Front Wheel drive). I swear Jax thinks I'm made of money, which he would be somewhat right...
((Unrelated note I'm still writing chapter 2 of Need For Speed: Instinct and I'm almost done so expect it soon))

Someone please kick me in the nuts... please.
Posted 8 years agoI thought my car troubles were over... I was dead wrong. Long story short I gotta rebuild Jax's transmission now, and it's burning another hole in my pocket of cash, and this is on top of ANOTHER transmission that I'm still waiting on for another project I'm working on. *proceeds to repeatedly bash my head into a wall* Just my luck huh?
Happy birthday to me!
Posted 8 years agoWell today I turn 21. Happy Birthday to me! (Let's hope I don't go crazy...)
A crack at story writing?
Posted 8 years agoI'm curious. Should I take a crack at writing? I have a few ideas, but honestly I don't know if anyone would want to see. (Plus it's been awhile since I wrote anything...)
Getting my damn car back.
Posted 8 years agoAfter about a month of fucking headaches trying to find a motor I have one being shipped to me at LAST. It was painful (specially since the first one I found ended up being a dud...) but I found a place that reconditioned the ones they actually import from Japan. (Guess you can say I'll have a half JDM now.) It's only about 400 bucks so I'm lucky.
