I'm remembering why I named the car Puck*.
So I take the car in to have the rear brakes replaced, and ask the service tech to see how much it would cost to replace some buls in my dashboard, as they've been going in and out for the past few weeks. The number comes up in the triple digits. I decline, thinking that I can buy a manual for $20 and the errant bulbs for under $5 apiece. As I'm driving home, I notice that as it gets darker, all the bulbs that were on the fritz are now lit.
The car likes to mess with me. If I wake up as a donkey tomorrow, I'm selling it.
*Puck was the mischievious fairy in Midsummer Night's Dream.
