I just changed my car battery. Allow me to say that again. I. Just changed. My car battery. Me. By myself.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, so what. A year ago...heck, 6 months ago I probably would have had someone else do it. It was a big mess and kind of a PITA, but the fact that I did not pay my hard earned money to do something that my lazy ass could be doing, automotively speaking, is a big deal for me.
I am giving myself a gold star for the day.
