The ramp on my van has been acting up over the past week, intermittently refusing to fold up after I get out. My nurse and I tried doing a little self-repair on it this morning, but to no avail. Which means I have to take it down to a repair place in Savage (about twenty miles south of Minneapolis). All this specialized equipment is great for my independence, but when something breaks down, it can be a royal pain to fix. It’s not like I can take the van to the local repair shop. Same thing with a wheelchair. Fortunately, such breakdowns don’t happen. Let’s just hope that I don’t get stranded somewhere between now and Friday.
\nI’m curious to read Joe Trippi’s new book<\/a> about the Dean campaign. Part of me still wishes Dean had done better during the primaries, even though it probably would have spelled doom in November.
