F*CK. This. Sh*t.

I reinstalled the front belly pan and air dam, shortening the air dam an inch and a half or so. Drove up to a friend's house. On the way back, I was EOC'ing when the lights dimmed and the car would not start back up. Coasted to the side and called AAA. It was real fun to hear my mom's reaction when I told her I was EOC'ing. Real, real fun. Also real fun to sit in my car for ~30 minutes when it's 27* outside and I forgot my hat.

ALWAYS keep a blanket and a snack in your car in the winter. I wrap a CLIF bar inside a fleece blanket just in case. The blanket came in handy.

Suspecting battery or charging problems. GAHH I am going to test the battery and install the fuel pump. If those don't work I'm getting rid of the car. Having a car at college is a privilege, not a necessity. It's really pissing me off.

On the bright side, the drivers front wheel with the smiley face really, really amuses me
