more quiche

Alan fixed the car tonight. Thank our lucky stars for an auto parts store that will rent you the tools to take the steering wheel off, and the handy volt meter. It seems the real problem was some corrosion on the switch, causing a reduction in power to the signal on the left. My signal works now, so I can return to being a responsible driver who actually uses the turn signal. A rarity in Austin, I know, but I felt so guilty every time I didn't signal.

I made quiche again. This time they have sauteed mushrooms, spinach and onion along with some crumbled salt pork. Alan's quiche also has black olives. I'm looking forward to having some for breakfast tomorrow.

What a long day. It's only a bit after nine and I feel wiped out. I went to work early, which was a good thing as they left us go before three this afternoon. We can rip through the work when we want to do so. Never did get in trouble for yelling at the stupid woman, and it became a running joke in the bay.

So the laundry is done, the cooking is done, I ate my BLT on an english muffin and I would like to just collapse now. I'm watching this kitchen makeover show and wishing once again for a home of my own.

if your signals are broken you are supposed to use hand signals. i think finger optional

Once upon a time I knew the hand signals when I rode my bike, but I've forgotten them. Mostly I just tried to be careful and do as little merging left as I could.

i am glad you got it fixed.
