a series of unfortunate events

[lizziebelle]

My day chiefly consisted of one irritating thing after another, culminating in a dead car battery due to my having left the lights on all day. Nobody noticed until nearly 5:00, when Al called me from his car as he was leaving for the day. Yep, it was dead. Someone had jumper cables and we tried jumping it, but no go. I called AAA, and they said "ten to forty-five minutes," which turned out to be somewhere in the middle. It took a few tries, but we got my baby started, and he tested the battery and proclaimed it good. Thank you, AAA; thank you Mom for buying me AAA; thank you Sears for Die Hard batteries!

I'm having a grilled cheese sandwich for supper; comfort food is the best thing for this kind of day. I also have beer, given to me by a reader for whom I save the paper every week.

And! New Lost tonight!!! This makes me very happy.

Ooh, and George Clooney is on the news. He's an official UN envoy for peace! *sigh* He's so wonderful. *g*

Grilled cheese is one of the great all time comfort foods.

What a day! Glad you are home safe and snuggling in for the night.

Has Mercury extended its reach to batteries now?! When I got home tonight I found my cell battery (which gets plugged in every night and will last a couple days w/o doing that) was *totally* discharged - and after an hour of charging it's not getting anywhere...

Oh argh, I forgot about Mercury. D'oh!
