finally getting off my lazy bum
Every once in a while, a man has to grind his teeth, put down his beer, and get the things he's been putting off for a couple of weeks D.O.N.E. Such a day was today. I finally installed those brake rotors that have been performing admirably as paper weights, washed my car, took pictures of it, and *gasp* even had time to update my blog.
For those who have never worked on car's brakes, try it. It's a great way to release one's frustration while banging on stubborn bolts, to realize one's intellectual inferiority to a common mechanic, and, finally, to enjoy the fruits of your labor while trying to disregard the fact that you just spent 2 days on something that another human being could have expertly done for a few bucks. But, enough second-guessing myself: my baby has new shoes, and I'm about 50% sure that when that SUV-driving soccer mom veers into my lane, I'll be ready.
And if not, I have collision insurance ;P
