Sammi the Bull, our poor broken Ford Taurus, is finally on it's way to the shop! Just watched her get hooked up and pulled away.
At the very least, she needs a new alternator and starter. But since we can afford it, and we need a car to survive, we're doing it now. Might need a new battery, but the tow-truck driver evidently found a charge in there.
We also got to play with out new toys, a set of Motorola T4900 Talkabout radios. We can't afford cell phones, and being able to keep in contact while I'm out riding or whatever is a nice thing. Theoretically, they have a range of three miles. So far, we've tested them to about a mile.
Work called. Wanted to know if I wanted to come in this afternoon. 0_o Hello? I requested this day off weeks ago. I'm going to the Giants game tonight! Tomorrow, I don't answer the phone.
In even better news, the fever broke last night. So I'm ready to go see my Giants whup some A's butt!
