What the hell was up with everyone today?! It seems like everyone was driving like a total douchbag gunning the gas and slaming the brakes, or driving like a cotton-top in a land yacht. Almost got rear ended by an idiot in a hyundy Accent or some tiny tin can. Almost got side swiped by another moron who couldn't think to look to his right before merging, and they all wanted to go 60 in a 45. And then on the other side of things, if they weren't going 60, they were going 30!
Keep in full mind, this was not just some singular isolated incident. This was like my whole 35 mile commute to work!
And of course, this all had to happen when I chose to drive the S2k.

That's odd, a friend of my dads has 2 Opel GT's doing the exact same thing on her property as well.
I won't get into details, but I need to vent about insurance issues with my recent accident. Because the other people won't claim responsibility, their company denied an initial claim, and are just now getting the paper work sent to them with *my* side of the story, including contact information to the witnesses. HOPEFULLY they will realize it's a no-brainer without taking it to court, because I really don't want my premiums to go up, even temporarily. Either way, it just sucks waiting in limbo with a limping car that I don't even feel comfortable taking on short errands. She's just been sitting for the past 2 weeks or so.

I'm at work. I'm expecting to get a setup done in 1.5 hours. It takes me a little over 3 because the machine program listed on the routing was for a different part, and part numbers were different by one digit in the long sequence of numbers (it was a 6 rather than a 9) so I spent all my time setting up the wrong freaking program.
I do a quick search and find the right one and get it up and running, and find out that the time I spent trying to replace some dowel pins that someone hacked of the fixture didn't even apply to the job I was going to run.
I worked through my lunch period trying to get this job running so I could finish it out.
I was so fuming mad, I wanted to break something heavy.
Yeah, that's the short version. I already wrote the long version, but since it was so long, I deleted the whole thing and started over.

^ I've always had good luck with GoTuning, but the custom stuff does take time. I understand your frustration and can empathize with you, but don't rush them, it'll be worth the wait.
FYI - It took 3 months to get my steering wheel, just be patient.
