Jul. 19th, 2005 09:40 amToday's adventure. Car won't start. A dead battery. Fun fun fun.
I tried to get people in the parking lot to help me, but they all gave me the same story. "Sorry, I'd love to help but I'm running late." They may be running late, but I can't get to work at all now. Thanks folks.
Ben was wonderful and set me up with a AAA account. Our account went through, but wasn't confirmed. I got tired of waiting so I called them and explained and they are sending someone now. That was nice of them.
My bosses were also very understanding about the whole thing. They reassured me that car things happen and to just let them know when I do eventually get to work.
So now I wait for AAA. They will jump my car and the day will be saved!
[EDIT] It's not the battery. Now they want to tow the car to a mechanic to get it fixed. Oh my god I hate the world right now.
