Dream-0, Reality-1

I swear, by the time this hearse is done, they'll have to start converting it back to its original state because I'll be on my deathbed.

I went back to Francisco's shop yesterday to meet with Admir about the A/C and to choose colors for the curtains and front of the dash.

Admir showed me how he was going to route the tubing to the back, and the air temperature felt sufficiently cool. I told him I'd like to leave the vent placement to his judgment based on where the seats are going to be.

Unfortunately, they're not going to be anywhere for awhile. I didn't end up making any progress with the curtains or dash because Francisco was in Santa Monica talking to the leather supplier. He's been waiting for them to ship the material before he starts building the seats. We've waited almost three weeks just so they could send us the wrong color. This completely blows and there isn't much I can do about it. And yet, I still feel like I could skin a cow and dye its hide faster than these people can get their act together.

How much longer before the Barbie Dream Hearse becomes PlatKat's Nightmare Money-Sink?

How much longer to nightmare money sink? Oh 3...2..TWO WEEKS AGO! What's it matter? Is this the fulfillment of a dream, or isn't it? Hang in there and keep the end in sight. Even if the means are proving drag-ass pains.
