Well, I almost resolved (part of) my phone issue this morning, but it didn't end up working out. Luckily, Husbinator completely resolved my phone issue this afternoon, so that worked out nicely.
I spontaneously explored the tire store near Rami Levy, though, discovered that they are also mechanics, and got the brakes on our car fixed! So full credit all around, I say.
And while I was waiting for the car, I bought the complete works of Uri Aurbach: I was with neither phone (it was broken) nor book (I hadn't expected to go to the mechanic) so I wandered around the bookstore and figured I'd pick something up. I found Maybe They'll Throw Candy This Shabbat, which I recognized thanks to the Kornbluths tying that poem to baggies of candy and giving them out in shul on Aurbach's shloshim (or yahartzeit, or something). The clerk suggested I buy the whole set, and after skimming a few more poems, I did.
I smiled, I laughed, I groaned, and I've even cried once. So all in all, a productive sort of a day.
