Played car today and finally did my 20,000 miles oil change. I feel better! I hope my car does, too. I somehow spazzed and forget to remove the oil filter cap drain before removing the oil filter cap and wound up with motor oil splattered everywhere. Made a pretty cool pattern on my shirt. Designer grease monkey clothes. Whoo.
Played motorcycle after playing car. I took the ridiculously hard to turn petcock apart and cleaned it out so now I can actually go from “On” to “Reserve’ without having to pull over and get off my bike. After that, bled my brakes, and then cleaned out the front calipers.
I just realized that my motorcycle’s front calipers have twice as many pistons as my entire car does. On the flip side, just one of my car’s brake pads contain enough material to outfit several bikes. Interesting.
Cleaned up the motorcycle a bit and helped Doug out with some much needed gardening. Raked a lot. Felt like I was back home helping out my mom again. Got bitten by a bunch of mosquitoes. Again, felt like I was back home. Next thing you know there’s gonna be a warm torrential downpour thunderstorm.
One of the mosquitoes bit my forehead. I whacked it right after I felt it, but it broke skin. I wonder what that’s gonna look like tomorrow.
