Slept in, made breakfast with the girlfriend, picked up some ribs I ordered a few days ago, and got hit on the back end of my truck on a exit ramp from the freeway. Its snowing really good here and the ramp was slick. I had the truck in 4x4 going pretty slow, maybe 15 or 20 mph on the ramp. A guy came up behind me going at least 25 and couldn't control his car. He spun sideways and hit my right corner of my back bumper with his car then he went sailing into the ditch. No damage to my truck, it just knocked the snow off my bumper. His car had a football sized dent in the rear quarter panel. He said it was all his fault, i said I wasn't going to file with my insurance since i had no damage. I made sure he was ok, we exchanged info and i waited till he a had a ride and tow truck come for him. I would have pulled him out with the truck but the exit ramp was way to busy for me to do it.

aside from scaring my daughters ex boyfriend.
He works at a local eatery that a friend of mine manages. the family and I stopped in for dinner (at a deep discount) since the manager was on duty tonight.
the Ex was standing at the counter B.S.ing with some other employees, I walked in and the ex looked up and quickly ducked out the back. (even tho he was parked in front of the restaraunt)

Went to Bloomsdale, Mo for the annual Mud Bash. It was fun seen lots of carnage, a past Top Truck contender (Fourwheeler Magazine), seen a few jeeps on there tops as well a a couple trucks. Had a good time even though it was only 25*. Oh and the trailer tire and hub fell off on the way home the bearings gave up the ghost.
Put new tarps on the Labs outside kennel. Put up his heat lamps. Repaired some wind damage to the kennel. Drained the water hose. Placed winter cover on outdoor spicket. Pretty much just got the dog and house ready for the cold weather that's coming!
I hate cold weather!
