an update

i felt as though i need to post an update of myself. i have nothing to update except that i start work (real work) on tuesday, 3-11pm. i will be getting braces on my bottom eight teeth. i should specify that i have more than eight bottom teeth and it is the front eight teeth that will be bracketed. 6 months.

i am currently covered in brake dust. i have blackened my fingernails because LAVA doesn't reach under them. oh, LAVA is a really cool soap that feels like you're washing your hands with sand. really gritty sand. fun. i need to shell out $100 or so for new rear rotors and pads because NAPA won't honor the "lifetime warranty" that apparently expired(?!) in 2001. not exactly lifetime. i wasted enough air arguing in the most polite fashion with their libertyville branch. soon, i will head over to there waukeegan location and chew them out. (waukeegan was the one who gave us that warranty. they better give me a free set at least) oh, NAPA is independently owned. appology fruit basket to arrive at libertyville location soon. it'll be covered in brake dust, but soon.

also, my brakes may give out at any given moment. i bled all four pistons, not as much air trapped in the lines as i thought. refilled. bled again. they appear perfect, though the brake pedal still sinks to the floor and the car starts to pull. i suspect that brake fluid is creeping back into the master cylinder after pressure is applied which means that if i don't pump my brakes, my car won't stop. i don't value my own life, but i refuse to carry any passengers. sorry, don't want that on my conscience.

i'm switching major/career...pre-dental. just as much school. not on call. not nearly as much malpractice insurace. more money. i'm actually interested in it. that all fits. i'm gonna do it.

end update
