Sometimes, all you need is a hammer...

...or a mallet, which is what I had to use to get the door to my car open this morning*. On the plus side, I have an awesome new ice scraper, courtesy of one of the vendors at our company's health fair last week, so it only took me 20 minutes to scrape the windshield off enough to drive to work.


* The plus side of working with metal for a hobby--I have three mallets, two rubber and one rawhide. Don't ask me how many actual hammers I own. Or pairs of pliers.
