Well, my weekend started Saturday morning with a friend's baby shower. Had to drive up to Fairfield which was about 75 miles north of Fremont in 90+ degree heat. My A/C decided to crap out on me in the car and made my trip halfway unpleasant. It was great seeing thy friends up north. Played some pool and a little bit of Rockband before I had to leave for socal for the huge annual Honda meet at Eibach the next day. Left in the afternoon and drove another 75 miles back home to meet my co-worker to drive me to my partner's house for the carpool down south. Drove about 25 miles down south to his house.
9pm - 330am
From there we took 101 to 152 to I-5 to Los Angeles down to Corona where the Eibach facility is. Eibach is a major automotive spring manufacturer. They hold an annual Honda meet every year (this being the 5th).
4am-930am
About 5 hours of sleep (which wasn't quite enough as I felt very groggy) we had to wake up and prepare to checkout and leave for Eibach. There was a free breakfast at the hotel lobby that ended at 10 am. Took a quick shower and headed out for some breakfast.
10am-3pm
Headed out to the Eibach facility to the parking lot. We set up tent with a popular socal car group called "Phaze2". They provided the gazebo and tent with a portable a/c unit (a/c didnt work..which sucked). About 300 or more cars showed up to the event.

4pm-1am
--packed up and left Eibach to grab some food and make our way home. We grabbed a early dinner at Roscoes Chicken and Waffles in Pasedena. Left socal at about 530pm. At about 10pm we were at or near Coalinga and stopped at Harris Ranch for some fresh Prime Rib late dinner/night snack...hehehe.
Got stuck in traffic for a good 45 minutes right before the 152 Junction. Pissed us all off. Got back to my partners place at about 12am for the trip back up home. Arrived home at about 1am. 700 miles later + another 25 miles home, the next picture shows exactly how I felt....
Got home tired as hell and had about 6 hours after I took a shower to get ready for the work week again....I was dead tired.
3 days later, today I finally felt a bit more rested as I tried to catch up on some needed sleep. Finally had time to write this blog. It didn't help that work occupied me 12 hours a day the past 3 days. I did receive a nice little package of toys though. More Mighty Muggs Star Wars!!!...woooot
