I wish I could have made it too, as I really wanted to go. But, I was busy all weekend with schoolwork. It sucks being a 35y.o. junior at ASU, when you have to balance school with work, family obligations and playtime...

I'll definitely be camping/wheeling at Payette Draw next weekend though...

I work 12 hr shift overnight at my full time job, plus the overtime, and also fill in at a part time job. I also am full time in school in online classes that take up just as much time as going to school physically. I only really see my friends on Friday/Saturday/Sunday, though I always work Sunday night and I work every other Saturday night.

THIS is why I aspire to be a beach bum!!! I just haven't gotten the courage to throw in the towel yet. Maybe after Thanksgiving in Rocky Point....

I was just told that I could change my tax exemptions for a month while I do all this overtime and get most of the money back instead of having it go to taxes. Good. That's what I am going to use to get tires instead of the stock ones and have my rims customized. I CAN'T WAIT!!

Yep, I do this once a year. You won't get as much of a return, but then you're not giving the government a huge interest-free loan either. I'll normally claim 10 exemptions for 3-4 months.
