my home is 5 yrs old with wired in smoke alarms that have battery back up. They go off for about 2-3 beeps and then quit, usually in the middle of the night.
if you've knocked your alignment out, you will incure additional expenses of replacing your tires which will wear unevenly over time. drive on a straight road, remove your hands from the wheeldo you drift to one side or the other? If so, go get an alignment. Probably $30. If your radiator is leaking be sure to keep it full to prevent overheating. You can try the leak stop stuff from Auto Zone for a quick shot at mending the problem. Probably around $7 I doubt that a fire hydrant has caused major damage..depends how fast you were going.
As a married man I find it a little odd. Find a person at the stores you shop at to help you dress less conservative. These people have a feel for whats current and fashionable. One mans opinion is just that. Friends who mean well are honest and helpful, they don't let their husbands dress you.
