Clutch

I had a new clutch unit put in my car which means shifting gears is about a thousand times smoother than it used to be.  It’s funny because I got used to shifting the way my car used to shift and now it’s like driving a whole new car.  I haven’t stalled or even come close, but it isn’t anything like it used to be.  It’s kind of nice!

There came a point this past week where there were only two people in our flight.  That was pretty funny because we didn’t really know what to do.  I had plenty of work to keep myself going, but it felt weird not to have anyone come and chat with us or entertain us with stories about the crazy things they did the other day.  I found I am no more productive with no one there, I just have a chance to work on a single project for a little longer length of time than usual.

It became evident I need an ironing board this past week when I almost melted my pants to the top of my dresser.  I’ve been using the floor and the top of my dresser since I moved in here which has been working well.  It turns out that if you starch some pants on both sides and then try to iron them on a wood dresser, you’ll get the pants stuck to the top of the dresser and you’ll have to rip it off and spend about ten minutes scraping wood bits off the pant legs.  It’s not much fun.  Since then I’ve been using the floor and I’ll stick to that until I get to WalMart and buy a new ironing board.  That will just have to wait until I have time!
