Brighter Bulbs

Can you believe that I actually went to sleep at a decent time last night? I was sleeping by 1 AM. I worked the open shift so I was home by 10. I was tired all day because I did not sleep very well Tuesday night. I had an unending dream ~ where you wake up then go back to sleep and the dream continues. If it is a good dream I don’t so much mind that but this dream was strange.

A gal that I know went missing so everyone was looking for her. She finally gave herself up because she was not actually missing she was hiding.

Now how long can a dream like that go on? It seemed like an all nighter that I just couldn’t shake.

Before work I went to Wal*Mart to get headlight bulbs. I have mentioned to Dick that something needs to be done but he has done nothing with them as of yet. I bought the bulbs. Like I said before it is not the bulbs! It is the headlight unit (whatever that is called) and it is going to cost about $100 to replace it. Knowing Dick he will want to sell the car and get a different one, not necessarily in that order, rather than replace the unit. (Someone may have to replace his unit! :~o

When I got done working I replaced the bulbs ~ with a little help. The first one I struggled with until TOOMO was leaving. He stopped to find out what I was doing. When he realized that I was not having much luck removing the bulb he did it for me. Then he was on his way! (Like there was no struggle at all. Yeah, I already had it loose that is why it was so easy for him to remove it.) 🙂 I slid the new bulb into the socket but I could not get it back into bracket. While struggling with this Dirty Girl’s boyfriend was just coming to the bar so he stopped to help me.

*Funny story ~ I had gone back into the bar to compare bulbs ~ make sure that I had the right ones before I opened the package of new ones. As I was coming out I caught a glimpse of someone lurking around the dumpster that sits by the back door. Flashlight in hand ~ I turned it around so that I could use it as a club if need be. What was I thinking? Why not just go back into the building? That would be too easy. It was Mr. Dirty Girl that was by the dumpster and I don’t think that he was actually lurking. That damn thing just sits too close to the back door and to me it seems like a hazard. But I held up the flashlight and said “I was ready for you!” We laughed. End of funny story* (Okay, maybe you had to be there!)

Even Mr. Dirty Girl struggled with putting the bulb back into the bracket. Only to discover that the prongs were not all the same size ~ there was on smaller than the other two. I am not sure how he got that back in there because there was hardly enough room for me to get my hand in that area.

So now I have replace both my dim bulbs and my bright bulbs. There is no difference ~ like I said it is the unit!
