On top of all the shit going on right now, I got pulled over by the police yesterday. It seems BOTH my brake lights were out! I had no idea because how can I see if my brake lights are working? I was so worried because the last thing I need is to pay for a ticket. The officer was actually very nice to me and he did give me a ticket but it is called a fix it ticket. That means I need to fix the problem then go to the station to show that it was all set and I would not have to pay anything. I know it is just changing a bulb but I do not know anything about car things so I went online. I watched a video on how to change the bulb, see the internet is useful for more than just watching cat videos. Then using the internet I found out what kind of bulbs to get and I bought them last night - only $6.47 for the two (including tax). This morning I heard the landlord out in the yard. After I watched the video I knew changing the bulbs would not be hard as long as I had the right screwdriver. I was not sure if I had it but I know my landlord would so I went out and asked him and of course he did! A power one too! So lickety split I changed the bulbs and he confirmed for me that that were working. Now I just have to show the police and I am all good! I feel so good and accomplished today :) See I had a problem - I was worried and nervous and yet I figured it out and got it fix plus have no problem asking for help. I can do this, I know I can.
