Seven Months
Well, I got the car's brakes fixed today (Andymac, Ana, Jen, Dan, and all you other whiners can stop yer complainin') :) It cost a pretty penny, too. 2 rear wheel cylinders, metric steel lines, front disc pads, front rotors, rear shoes, brake fluid, and labour came to $671.31. The decimal is in the right spot, I triple checked.
It's worth it, though. My car feels SO good, and now Andymac's car is so inferior that I fear it may just spontaneously combust.
The rule for old (er, classic) cars like mine is that it has to give you a month's service in exchange for every $100 in repairs that you spend. This means that my car has to be around for at least another seven months....the world can rest a little easier tonight.
It's the Friends series finale, and they're playing it like the planet is going to stop revolving tomorrow....I will spend the remainder of the evening avoiding the television.
