I gotta get on AIM more, neh?
Monday, 17 July 2006 18:40Fregging car. Wouldn't start; acted like a dead battery. Tried jump-starting it with Nay's car, it barely started then died immediately. I was really worried my alternator had gone bad or something. Took the battery to Autozone, and it tested fine and full. Hm. Odd. So I go home and spend half an hour cleaning the connectors and clamping them as tightly as I could with my limited toolset to the posts, and....voila! Car starts up just fine. Feh. Admittedly, the posts are scarred and pitted, and the clamps also look not so good, so I should probably look into fixing that. This wouldn't have affected me so badly except working/driving in 100 degree weather on/in cars that could light cigars at a touch is one of my pet peeves. Now you know.
I've been thinking lately about souls, and I think I'm nearly ready to drop the idea. Souls seem like an overly complicated idea to explain a common phenomenon. Sort of a big moment for me, since I've been trained since birth to regard my own as all-important.
Anyway. Hooray for cars that work!
