One of those days today. I got up early, planning to do my 20 mile commute route. Got in the car to drive to the park and ride, and my brake light is on. I decide to pass the park and ride and drive right to the mechanic, which is only 5 miles from work. I ended up doing a 12 mile loop in the morning, but only the 5 miles to the shop after work, so my total for the day was less than half what I wanted to ride.

and it turns out the car needs $700 worth of brake work. Ugh. I hate cars.
