Left my headlights on this morning, and I found out this afternoon my car has this nice little feature that if there is an electrical problem - such as, oh say, the battery being dead - with the car, when you try to manually unlock the car instead of using the remote, an electrical switch is thrown that won't let you get into it. What asshole thought that up?

So I had to spend $100 to get a locksmith unlock it, then call everyone I know in the city who has a car (that's a total of four people) to pick me up, drive me to get some jumper cables, and come back and jumpstart my car.

It all worked out, I got it jumped, but you wouldn't imagine how close I was to just SNAPPing. And this was the highlight of my day.

What did I do to piss God off so much that she is so encredibly mad at me?


And, I'm feeling just a teeny bit lonely.

It's not just you, hun. I had one heck of a day, myself. I think god must have been pissed off at everyone today.

Glad you finally sorted it out, but don't you just hate those kind of days? It's never JUST. SIMPLE. Problem A (dead battery) leads to problem B (lock out) leads to Problem C (trying to track down somebody with a car AND jumber cables, etc.... I sometimes get to a point where I'm one breath away from putting it all down (whatever's hassling me) and simply walking off into the sunset, even if I'm in my jammies. I picture the paddy wagon picking me up somewhere down the road as I wander aimlessly. I see myself barefoot and dirty, dressed in my eeyor pj bottoms which are way too long, but I have a smile on my face. Much better being crazy than dealing with life some days!

P.S. Keep those jumper cables handy from now on! oh, and figure out how to override that damn switch (that is dumb, I'd have probably given up and tossed a rock through the window)

Oh, believe me - they've not left my trunk! And yes, rock through window was my next approach, and will be my first approach next time. Stupid "safety" mechanism.
