3.7 L V6 Chrysler power torque engine with complete seal kit.
Long block.
It's not a special engine, nor is it super powerful or fancy. It's basic..
I will not do this again.

Went to my favorite resale shop and bought this pot called a 'Popstir'. It has a device you use to stir the popcorn as it pops. This really does help cut down on the unpopped kernels of corn. And popping in oil makes the corn moist. So the powered I got stick to it better.

A big square, page wide magnifying glass that'll hang from my neck. Eye sight problems. OK, truth is I need new glasses. This was the $400+ cheaper option.

Tires.
You'd think they were made with gold .
What gives!? Is there a synthetic rubber shortage?

Oh no, it's just price gouging. Again.
My tires are bald and one sprung a leak, so, it's time. I got over 70,000 miles on then!
That's about 1.2 cents per mile worth.

I want to buy something that makes me happy again. I want to go back in time, but I can't afford the time machine.

My exceptionally thick, fast growing lawn is quickly becoming a miniature forest. Lawn mower still in the shop. Something has to happen. And fast. Today I got off work early. Good because I don't get to do that often. Bad because I know I'll be there 10 to 12 hours the rest of the week. Clocked out of work and headed east. Bought a brand new lawn mower. Still in the box. I'll put it together tomorrow. Then cut this forest of grass down.

21 classical CDs. Nine of Vivaldi alone. Been a wile sense i added to my classical CD collection. Like jazz, classical music helps me think.

Fritoes scoops, small bag

Poop bags for said hound
Frankensense essential oil, very very strong, may give away.

6 Under Armour heat guard shirts and a jar of sun thickened linseed oil. Because I lost 70+ lbs my old heat guard shirts no longer fit.

That's a lot of weight to lose. Everything ok?

Last thing I bought was stickers from red bubble. Furry stickers. I wish they were physically fuzzy. Haha!

I'm just a basic GSD. Boring. Average. Dog.
If I go to denfur again I hope to make a family happy like I did on 2019. The year I lost my dog Heidi. That family ran to me and said I looked like the dog who just passed. They had no way of knowing how much that manned to me at that time and in general.

But a man here in my town fought denfur and won. Now people under 18 not allowed. The kids made it funner and cleaner. I'm not sure I want to go to a place that has to be strictly 18+ everywhere.
Stops being fun for me.

Thanks for the concern Jade. Everything is fine! And I'm a LOT happier. It's nice to be able to tie my shoes and breath at the same time.

Good Cause! Glad you are okay!
I need to lose 30lbs for my backs sake. I have bad lower lumbar. Ugh

Last thing I bought was some basic fireworks. For a basic GSD.
That's me. Furry Fandom seems to hold it against me that I'm straight enough average guy. Too bad for me it's about creativity. Art, music, writing, dancing, drawing and costumes!

My workplace claims to be LGBTIQA+ friendly for pride month. I put an asexual spectrum flag about the size of a business card up and people thought it was weird or a flag for an island country. And when I explained best i could people didn't seem to believe me. Should have known. Even some furs react the same. Guess I will just hide that part of me for another decade...

I have 8 smoke grenades that actually do run for 10 min each, planning on doing all 8 at same time smoke the place out.
I also have about 12 "ground mine" which blow up and crackle loudly. Planning on making them into one large device...

And my favorite, red snappers also known as torpedoes. Small cigarette butt shaped throw poppers that blow up with the sound of a real firecracker (which are illegal here) but do not have ability to damage things. I love those things. They last all year. I needed this diversion this year, my life isn't really what I want it to be. So the basic smell, sight and sound of fireworks jolts me out of the funk for now.

There are various fountains and a 12 pack of whistler cones. Good god we all gunna be deaf after an that. Screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
I just wish I had mortars or some m80 but nope.

I even have a dog friendly fountain that can't burn fur and is almost silent! Hurray!

Thanks again for the concern Jade. Dropping Most carbs and almost all sugars has really helped. Just have to learn to say no. I do splurge everyone once in a wile. Maybe twice a month. Pants sizes down from a 42 to a 38. Now these are getting really loose.

>100$ in paint and brushes. Still painting. Just don't have anything worth showing. Hard to put a lot of time in it. Still not using any solvents. But have to change the way I was cleaning the brushes out. I have destroyed some brushes.

My yearly subscription to Croquis Cafe. Despite not being able to draw all the time it's still worth it.

Also bought toilet paper. It's hell not having any

Picture hangars that stick on walls and picture frames.

I have sooooo much furry art to put on my walls.

Found a steal on fleaBag(eeeeeeebay).
Someone had a rare vintage plasma lamp. It was sold as not working. But I know what it wrong with it and I should be able to repair it. Thus I got it a 1/4 cost.
If the glass isn't broken, I can make it work.

After a few yeas of talking about it I finally bit the dog and did it. Got a new IMac on the way. Not here. I'll have to drive into St Louis to pic it up. it was either that or have it delivered here. The idea of having a new computer sitting on the front porch till I got home wasn't an option. Mac uses my IP address to determine my location. So I wouldn't of been able to have it shipped to the post office after all.
