It's not so much warmer out than it was a few days ago, but it's sunny and the sky is vast and the snow is very slowly melting. Spring is coming. We've made it through winter, and it wasn't all that bad this year.

I feel expansive and light. My car's left wheel has a bearing loose, my kitchen sink is broken and leaking, my shower is dripping, but it's almost spring and I have homemade hummus with roasted red peppers and everything feels all right.

Ooh, so that's what they look like on the inside. I think it's just the bearing that's loose, not the hub, but I guess we'll find out tomorrow. You got parts for Toyota Corollas, or just American-made cars? Because that is what I have.

There's a toyota bearing hub in the inventory. I'm not sure, but I don't think its possible to replace the bearing seperate from the hub because of they way they are manufactured. The seals wear down and salt spray corodes the inner workings.

It's possible, it turns out! Or it's impossible, and the guys at the shop I went to just regularly perform the impossible. I honestly wouldn't be surprised.
