Both are better when you have somebody doing them with you. I just spent 4 hours changing a water pump in my driveway while the wife and kids were out. Nobody came and offered me water, nobody came and asked what I was doing, nobody came and messed up the locations of my socket set pieces . . .

Sounds like heaven! No one kicking over jars/bottles of automotive (or other semi-precious) liquids, no one bugging you to watch the anklebiters for "just a second", no one pulling each tool out of your tool box and asking "wut's dis four dad?"



Sorry, sounds like a good day to me.
