The struts are creaking a lot, and she don't like that. I need to check them over, sounds like something is rubbing.

She don't need to call you to do that. I get it all the time, you done yet? NO! how long? About a hour if you leave me alone, 3 hours if you keep asking me.

Kind of makes you think, don't it.

Picked up a new power steering pump and a pulley puller. I'll jump on that tomorrow afternoon.
