I've been up since 3 am working...something stronger than a beer is in order but my 04 is FINALLY out of the body shop after 4 1/2 months with an all new paint job. (A semi truck threw out some metal debris on the I-10 coming back to So Cal and effed up the right front wheel well, chipped the windshield and scratched 6 of the 10 panels on the car.)

It's at my local wrench's shop for an oil change, check the serpentine belt, fluids check, etc. before we zip on out to Indio to see Heart and Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience.

Hopefully there are no issues (it's only got 31k miles on it) after being in the body shop since the 1st week of April.

Otherwise we're taking my wife's Vette.

Got some work to do around the house this weekend and I'm sure a few of the brews will go down very well considering the heat.
