Out of The PIT

I should have known that something was amiss when the clutch got a little spongy. Anyway, long story short, there is some sort of leak with the clutch system and the clutch went. Unfortunately so much air also got into the system that after topping up the reservoir, I still couldn't use it. I don't have the tools to bleed the line so I am stuck here waiting for a tow. Yay.

I think this is paying it back, but during our health and safety rounds today, we were fishing through some areas of the office that we normally don't pry into. We found a bag full of goodies! It included a Bluetooth mouse, and a Nexus 7! Now, this closet that we were looking into had not been touched for months, and these items were on a high shelf, in a bag, with bunch of other garbage and it was unlikely that the original owner even knew it was there. I called dibs on the Nexus and took it back to my desk after our rounds. I figured that if it worked, I could reset the device and use it. I plugged the device in, and was able to power it on.

I decided to spend the extra several minutes on the bus (reading a book) to save myself the three dollars and hassle of waiting at a bus stop rather than at a station. Score!

Bah, I just found out that someone beat me to the punch at developing LED lights for toilets . Found out about this on a D.O.N.G. video . *scratches item off of list of things to invent*
