More suckiness

Okay, get this, Jim comes home and guess what?  The freaking car starts right up for him!  So, on top of everything I know look like a idiot.

Still, I KNOW I didn't used to have this problem with the car. I mean, I've had this car for nearly two years now, and don't recall having trouble starting it just because the weather was cold...

(On a weird side-note, the auto-correct spelling in Livejournal is working again.. which is weird, because it DOESN'T work for me when I do these entries at home.  Maybe it's cause I'm using Firefox here on campus and I use something else at home.  Or maybe there's setting on my internet options I need to change... will have to investigate that later.)

Anyway, so Jim says if he remember he'll try and start it up early tomorrow and see if it gives him trouble.  He says I flooded the tank when I tapped on the gas, and that I need to just crank for about fifteen to twenty seconds at a time so I don't run down the battery.

So, that was that...

After I got in the car, I went over to Wal-Mart in Marion, and then in Carbondale.  I tell you, as bit as both of those stores are, they sure had a shitty selection when it came to Titanium frames.  They only had like dozen for each store.  (Well, two dozen for C'Dale Wal-Mart, if you count the women's frames.)  Another thing is although cheaper, their warranty for their frames is only sixty days, while another place I've gotten my frames was an entire year.

I don't know.. I have a few other places I can try, maybe Marion Eye Center (where I got my last pair of glasses.)  If I can't get much cheaper, I'll at least try and get a decent warranty.

It's now 10 minutes till 3.  Guess I'll go ahead and move into the lab where my class is being held.
