...one two more to go.

While I did make it through my class today, with only minimal (read: only 20 yawns), my >1hr conference call after my class didn't help at all either.  Afterwards my new super-hero Bryan drove me all the way to the other side of town to where my US car is.

Except there was a tiny problem, in that the car battery was dead and hence wouldn't start.
And you know the only thing worse than trying to jump start a car for over an hour?



Trying to jump start a car for over an hour in the pouring rain, while standing in a gigantic mud puddle!

At least one of us wasn't asleep and after some time, Bryan suggested we get out of the mud and onto the road.
Just when I was about to give up and go buy a new battery, the car turned over and I was able to drive all the way to the other side of town to my friend's house.

Now the only things left to deal with are:
a) how to get the car started in the morning (yes, I tried just now and it's dead, hence my second problem)
b) how to convince American Airlines to BRING ME MY FREGGIN LUGGAGE that they supposedly found at 3pm today.

sigh

Going to change clothes, brush my teeth and go to bed now.... (little joke there)
