Am having a day here:
Last night I got ambitious and replaced the bushings in my swaybar links. Went smoothly.
Too smoothly, it seems.
Woke up this morning with pain in my right arm, went to doctor. Turns out I sprained it.
Went home, then headed to work. Had a car honk at me and point at the car, so I pulled over and hopped out.
Left rear caliper is ON FIRE.
No extinguisher on board, this is the DD. Fortunately I did have a bottle of glass cleaner in the trunk, which got the fire out. Called AAA, got dragged to mechanic.
Got home, called work. Boss suggested "why don't you just call it a day?"
So I did. Did run out with other car and get a fire extinguisher, though.
Ugh. Hope tomorrow goes better...
