This morning my battery decides it doesnt want to start in my stupid car! Normally, not a big deal. I go out when I am free today, buy a battery and be done. No, not today. I had a very important meeting with the pricipal of a school at 9am. I shave, shower, get ready and hop in my car at 8:45. Turn key and get the barely turning over of my motor. Needless to say, I missed the meeting. Oh, the battery in my Jeep is dead too. I know you were going to ask. Worse part is, I left work @ 8pm last night and it turned started. The answer to your next question is no. No I didnt leave any lights or accessories on. Not looking for a pity party. Just felt the need to vent about the aweful start to my day.

My Jeep gave me the "I don't want to start" crank this morning, but it did start. The extreme cold temps are killing it.
