Today I did a very manly thing. I fixed my car! I bought a new battery for it, because I was fairly sure that was the problem. And then I attempted to remove the old battery which was very diffcult because the inside of a car scares me, and also I don't own a wrench which I needed. Instead I ended up using an assortment of those cheap metal tools that you get with self-assembled furniture. I even used a hammer at one point whilst connecting up the positive terminal. I am very proud and rather surprised at myself.
My manly skills now include:
1. Using a whipper snipper
2. Jump starting a car
3. Replacing a car battery
4. Not hating beer
Later I baked a lemon meringue pie, which probably cancels out this feat of pure manliness.
