The Unexpected...

Tonight was definitely interesting. Michelle and I left work at 8 and walked out to our cars together, talking as we went. I was parked farther away, so we said bye and I continued on. I get to my car and get in it, turn the key, and hear a "rur rur rur" of the car kind of trying to start. Not good. This problem was really random, except for when I drove my car to McAlister's (sweet tea!!) after Synoptic, it was acting a little funny, but that was the first I had noticed anything.

So I called my boss, David, (because he was still at work) and asked him what I should do. He ended up driving over to jump my car. We got it to start, but my tail lights were still reeeally dim. We snatched my bike and he followed me to my apartment. I turned my car off and tried starting it again -- not much of anything and less than when I first got to my car.

Now that my car is at my apartment, I don't mind that it's messed up. And praise God that I didn't get stranded. It is either the battery (good) or the alternator (nicht so gut). Please pray that this problem will be solved in a timely manner and that the problem won't be as severe as expected.

On a lighter note, I have my second German exam tomorrow and I feel like I can make another 103% on it :-). It's over conjugation and questions and stuff, and also a map of the German states. I thought that we were going to have to memorize the name of the state, where it is, and its capital, but apparantly we will have a word bank which will make things soooo much easier. Talking about that, I need to get studying!
