The following dialogue was heard when I took my car in yesterday for a routine inspection:

Repair dude: "OMG, those brakes are done for, how does this car even come to a stop anymore?"
Me, imagining all those serpentine roads I have to drive on to get to work: "..."

He showed them to me, too (standing UNDER your car up on the auto hoist is kind of creepy) and they really were rusty and jiggled in ways I don't think they are supposed to jiggle. O-kay.

Now there goes money I wanted to save up for next year's vacation. Sigh.

Real life sucks :-P

Tell me about it. :D

I for one am very glad you're safe :) ::HUGS::

Thanks. *hugs back* I was feeling a bit iffy retroactively, imagining how I had merrily driven along with faulty brakes. But oh well, now they're fixed and I'm good to go again.
