But I can't help but feel pretty good about fixing the rattle in our car's door. I did this by taking the door paneling off--something I never would have considered doing, say, a year ago. But what can I say. I watched a Filipino speaker-installation guy do it, so what was stopping me? Besides, of course, a fear that I would unplug something important or not be able to put the door back together or simply, you know, burst into flames or something.
Happily, neither of those scenarios emerged. I saw that the power-window motor had a loose bolt in the doorframe. I tightened it. I replaced all the door paneling. I high-fived myself.
And that is the story of how I did something useful on my day off. All by myself.

My daily ritual has become this: Browsing to your blog, staring intently at the pictures showing the sweltering desert heat, imagining myself baking in the sum, donning the winter hat and gloves, pulling out the ice scraper. Thanks guys!
