Journal #5918

So I had my cylinder head all torqued down correctly on my car just now, as I had finally received some of the parts to put my car back together today. I then realized that I had forgotten to put the intake manifold gasket on, which is impossible to install with the head bolted down. So then I had to take all the brand new bolts off again, along with the new head gasket, and scrap them, as they are single-use parts. I have now re-ordered the parts, which will probably be here in two weeks time. Previously today, I also ruined another part that came with the order, and rushed to the auto part's store for a replacement. The order that originally cost me just under $60 has now cost me upwards of $120. Oh, and I also trashed the interior surface of my headlight while attempting to de-fog it. Unfortunately, I'm about out of money now, so I can't afford to be a complete retard anymore.
