Today I got another flat tire. Yes, within a span of a mere two and a half weeks, the rear driver's side tire has gone flat on the 10 freeway. I mean, WTF, right? In my history of driving I've had a flat tire, you know, never. And now twice in less than three weeks?

Y'all missed me, didn't you?
I didn't think my new skills were going to be needed so soon after I got them, but I was almost excited to have a chance to put them to the test. Almost. I would preferred to have just gone to Bed, Bath and Beyond like I'd planned, instead of driving out to Monrovia to get a new tire, but whatevs.
Either way, I got her done lickity split. By myself!
And now, I know what you are all asking yourselves: In the midst of all your genius mechanical work, did you also manage to figure out how to utilize the timer function on your digital camera (a feat you have never done before on any camera) AND finagle a way to use your open car door as a tripod??
The answer:
You bet your bottom dollar. (That spare is such a ham).
Boys, did I mention to you that my car is also a stick shift? And that I'm single?

That's right. A girl who's not afraid to get dirty.
It's almost enough to make you forget about all those unicorn posts.
