camwynAte lunch at desk today so as to have lunch hour free. Drove to Morristown on lunch break, bought bulb for marker lamp from local auto parts place as NAPA was nowhere to be found (am sure it was on same street, only yours truly did not see it). Got right bulb for once, for 55 cents; liked guy working counter, so bought steering wheel cover too. Marker lamp holds in place remarkably well w/Phillips head screw, which is good 'cos yours truly dropped original screw two days ago and cannot find any more.
Drove to Randolph. Forgot how long that takes. Nearly choked when sign said '82 minutes wait from this point'. Assumed it was mistake on sign's part. Wrong. Got in reinspection line & took close to that long - as knitting was back at office, pulled out copy of The Wee Free Men and got most of way through book before called up to front of line. Did not have old inspection report, so had to hand over car registration so Parsons Auto Inspections guy could look me up. Rear tires - OK (should be, I bought them the day they inspected the car). License plate lights - OK. Marker lamp - OK. Rejected sticker has been scraped off & new inspection sticker now in place. No more inspections until May 2005.
Am sincerely hoping mass transit will be my primary means of transportation by then. Getting v. tired of cars.
