FML.

So my car's been making a squeaky noise for weeks. In preparation for the three hour drive home, and with Spring Break approaching, I brought it in to a garage. I got my car back with a new alternator on Thursday morning, and left town early Saturday morning.

The car died 4 miles out of town. I got it towed back to the same garage, which didn't open until this morning. They cleaned some cables, declared it fixed, and I picked it up an hour and a half ago to drive home. Didn't even make it out of town this time. Thankfully I coasted into a parking lot before it gave up completely.

AAA's gonna be here in an hour, and there's a cafe about .5 miles from the car place, so I think I'll set up shop there while I wait for the new alternator to be replaced with a newer alternator. Don't want to abuse my borrowing-rides-from-friends privileges.

The AAA guy I talked to today was the same guy from Saturday - I told him what the deal was, and his response was "Hey, don't you have to get to St. Louis to walk your dogs?"

To which I replied: "omg, y'all take detailed records..." Then I figured out it was the same guy. My folks have gotten some coworkers to walk to the dogs, thank god, but they're both gonna be stir crazy.

Hopefully, in 7-8 hours, I will be home. If not, I will be homicidal.

For now, I'mma just lean my seat back, be thankful for my phone, and get started on some homework.

Yay break?
