Car Repairs

I decided to bite the bullet today and perform auto maintenence on my '94 Buick LeSabre. I ended up getting four new tires, an alignment, and a recharge on the AC system. (Things are now blessedly cool in the August heat!)

Still, I have this sneaking suspicion that I'm putting the mechanic's kids through college...

In other news, my garage door broke yesterday night. While I had never thought that the door itself would be the problem (rather, the opener machine) I was proved wrong. Apparently a torsion spring responsible for assisting the open/close operation hit its maximal lifetime and snapped.

Ah, the joys of auto and home ownership! :)
