Just when it seems I might get to draw something (naughty)..
10 years ago
Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice...
... my mate hires me out to work on one of her coworker's car.
Now, I can understand that I am more mechanically inclined than her. Most members of my family, male and female, tend to do their own maintenance on their cars. I never really had to learn. Working on my own car since I got it two years ago, my knowledge and skill has risen substantially, but I'm still no mechanic by any stretch of the imagination.
Thankfully it's pretty basic and I can learn what I need to on YouTube, but it's still a pain to spend the one day I might have had for drawing on this project. So far I've changed out the front brake pads (disc brakes) and solved the mystery of the strange blue wire to nowhere. Turns out it was a former undercover police cruiser and it had connection lines for lights left in place. Next up are the back brake pads (drum brakes) and a refill of the refrigerant for the AC.
My hands are already too wrecked to draw any today... and tomorrow, I'm sure she has more plans.
At least in good news, I had three crazy busy weeks at work that got some extra money in... just in time to buy another six months of car insurance... fuck...
