Default Bad Day

So today sucked big time.

I needed to move the cobra but the battery was dead. No problem, I'll recharge it. Battery won't take a charge. I just replaced the battery 10 months ago. So I try to jump start it. Won't jump start. I can get the fuel pump to turn on but not enough juice to turn the engine over. All I hear is the solenoid clicking. I'll deal with this later.

Part 2 of bad day. I go to check emails, browse, etc. PC died on me. Think it might be the video card. I just build this pc last year for gaming. It's fast, new, etc.

Minor stuff. I'm not dying, sick, or anything really terrible like that. Just a bad day.

Carl,

Is the battery still under warranty? If so that should ease some of the pain. As for the rest it seems that once something goes wrong I have to expect other things to do so the rest of the day. At least have a great Thanksgiving.

Ron

I know there are days where it would have been better if I had just stayed in bed all day and done nothing because everything I do that day goes to crap.

Hope today is better and you have a great Thanksgiving.

John,

How can your day be better if you stay in bed and do nothing or if you are up all day and do nothing?

Ron

If I get up, I know I will screw something up.

It's all relative. At least you have a Cobra in your Garage and the ability to create your own gaming PC. The rest is just trivia.
