Man, this is the whole story of my life lately. You get a problem, you fix it as hard as you can, and then you realize you built a permanent monument to a temporary need. The smart move is almost always the one that lets things flex and come down easy, whether it's a chicken shade or a patio umbrella. Over-engineering is a trap.

My old Ford Ranger had a check engine light that would come on every third Tuesday. Replaced the oxygen sensor, the whole deal. For the next six months I was convinced every little noise was the transmission falling out. It makes you paranoid. You start hearing problems that aren't even there.

Honestly, that 20 second exposure would just give me star trails with my kit lens.
