so i try to start up my car today for the first time in about 5 days to drive to the bank. I got to start it up and theres no power at all, the battery is completely dead. my lovely gf left her ipod thing plugged into the power outlet and that drained all the power. I dont have my cellphone on me so i just walk a mile to autozone to pick up a car battery, yes I realize i will have to lug back a car battery over a mile away but my anger puts me up to the challenge. on nothing in my stomache and no liquids in my system I lug the approx 30-40 pound battery back. and when installing it the wrench falls into the crevice so I have to walk 5 blacks to get a new one.

I've had days like that, but ever since owning a vehicle with Onstar I swear up.

Look at the bright side, it could have been much worse. I don't know, the battery could have fallen on your toe or something. If you had money for the battery though, why didn't you get a cab? At least for the way back with the battery.

You could have mysteriously been covered in honey on the walk to buy the battery. And a swarm of bees would just magically appear and smother you.
Then you know your day is about as bad as it gets. So look on the bright side :D Sorry the day sucked. Just earn yourself some good karma. You probably just earned yourself some bad karma to deserve the whole car problem. It'll be a better day tomorow.

Dang, that must've sucked :P But yeah, it could be worse, someone could have called a Towing company to tow your car away and you would've been screwed :P
