fucking car. grr.

by

i just sliced my thumb open for the second time this weekend while attempting to replace the turn signal bulb in my stupid, fucking car. the kicker? i didn’t even get the bulb replaced! the glass broke and the metal base is rusted to the socket. fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!
not only am i going to have to arm-signal my left turns on the way to work and home tomorrow, i get to worry that something is going to spark from the broken bulb! AAAAHHHH!!!
these are the moments i REALLY miss smoking. *angrily masticates chocolate*
thank goodness andy! is pleased with his new shirt.

    and for my next trick, i’ll model my underwear. whee!!!! umm, no.
    i’ve done that before. try using a potato. but pliers would probably be easier. either way, you should probably wear gloves and disconnect the battery. just in case.

    Cut a potato in half, stick cut end over half broken bulb, turn.
    Old trick.

    Guess I should have read Andy’s comments first, huh?

    i don’t think it will work for this one, it’s pretty much rusted to the socket. but i appreciate the tip!

    i am so impressed with you that you do that stuff (or attempt to do it) yourself! i always go and find a boy when car-things need to be done.

    i guess growing up without my dad in the house and a completely un-handy mother was good in at least one respect. i’m pretty good when it comes to tools and minor car bits.

    ahh. my dad’s a mechanic so umm. i blatantly ignored all car-related things. i learned how to pop my hood last fall though! that’s a step in the right direction, isn’t it? :)
