Car's in

[cjsmith]

I've been listening to those brakes shriek for WAY TOO LONG. Today I have nowhere I need to be but work, for the first time in forever. Amazing how one's schedule clears up when one quits going to physical therapy! So TA-DAAA!, I took the car in.

It's in for brakes and... you guessed it, an alternator. :-) (My car eats alternators roughly once every year and a half. Every mechanic I see agrees that that's bad and then won't try to figure out why it's happening. I think they missed their calling as doctors.)

It's sixteen this year and healthier than I am. I'm supposed to get it back this evening.

I'd say the same, and sadly "the wiring" is a pretty big haystack in which to find the problem. Ah well. I don't actually care all that much; a couple hundred bucks every 18 months to two years is not that high a price to pay to keep a car going.
