oh, also brought the car to the shop to get an inspection. it's due for one in december, but i figure i might as well get it to pass while i'm syracuse, so when i move to buffalo, i won't have to get something fixed in order to have it pass.

the check engine light is on for a clogged cat i think, which could be pricey.

the front brakes creak too since they put new ones on, so i'm going to have them look at that for a third time and also get an oil change.
