it’s harder to remember to update when my days have no real pattern. no schedule, no commitments. just whatever i want to do.
anyway. here is the major accomplishment of my day:
my poor little sentra has suffered an identity crisis! in 2 minutes, it went from being a happy member of north carolina car society to a confused little guy in a sea of texas trucks. i think the identity crisis motivated my car to finally choose a name though, after five years of just being “my little sentra.” his name? vic. i can’t explain it, but that’s what it is. my little sentra named vic. now from texas.
unfortunately, vic has not been able to help me out much in the way of attaching his front license plate. i went to the nissan dealership to get the frame for it, since i’ve never had a plate attached to the front, and since they didn’t have time to attach it for me, i figured my dad and i could do it ourselves. shouldn’t be too hard, right, especially since between the two of us, we hold three degrees in engineering (two aerospace, one mechanical). not hard? for the life of me, i can’t figure out how the stupid thing is supposed to attach! i honestly think they gave me the wrong part. either that, or i am supposed to cut away significant amounts of the bumper to make the thing fit. anyway, now vic and i have to go back to the nissan dealership to try again.
oh, and tonight after i dropped my coffee pot on the floor, shattering glass everywhere, i tried to vacuum the tiny shards up. when i plugged the vacuum cleaner in and turned it on, it blew a fuse.
{sigh}
