This is indeed a good time for lemonade

My car has died. The starter motor does its thing quite well, but the engine won't turn over (well, one attempt it almost caught at the very end, but died practically before I noticed it catching). My not-quite-educated guess is it's a fuel issue, meaning it's a problem with the pump (failure), a problem with the injectors (crud or failure), a problem with the fuel line (vacuum leak), or a problem with the tank (crud in tank blocking intake). None of these problems are within my capacity to test for, much less repair, so off to Funhondas goes Nekokaburi. However, Chang is out until the 14th.

This would make me a very sad panda, but for my beloved Ankai (and the lovely [livejournal.com profile] wsmith, who gave me a ride to grab Ankai). For the next while, I will have my bike as my sole means of transportation. This is new and interesting to me; we'll see how it works. I'm guessing, unless we get some *really* nasty rainstorms, it will work very well indeed.

Naw, Nekokaburi's way too young to really die. She just wants some attention, is all ;P.

I know she's too young to die! I haven't gotten to drive her NEARLY enough...
