I didn't get my brakes fixed on Saturday as I had planned, and I didn't get them fixed today either . . . sort of.
On Saturday I discovered the major chain brake shop at the mall had closed down completely. That surprised me. It was still in business a month or so ago when I bought new tires for the cars. And the two mom 'n pop brake shops in town were closed for the weekend because of the holiday. And Firestone was so jammed full there was not a single parking space to be had in the entire parking lot.
I went to Firestone this morning and they were actually open and remarkably not busy so I stayed there for the hour and a half it took them to grind the rotors (whatever those are) so I could drive the car for a couple of months before I have to find and spend almost $300 to get said rotors replaced. On a good note, my brake pads are in excellent condition.

Get your breaks fixed and stop driving around on bad brakes!!!
I have enough friends who are having problems right now I don't need to add you to the list!!!
And yes I know I haven't reported on the trip - will explain as soon as things settle down around here.
