Yesterday was my anniversary with my wife. We had a great time last night. Dinner, golf, and a movie. Doesn't seem like much but we had a great time and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Today, we decided to go spend a little on ourselves, like getting us some anniversary gifts of sorts. While we were out, I had a stroke of misfortune. My car's battery has been giving me a little bit of mouth but today, it finally died on me in front of CoolStuffGames. I was a little worried, thinking that no one in the store would have jumper cables to help us out. I was about to freak out thinking of a way to get back home. I had a dead car, first time it ever happened to me, and I have a pregnant wife. Luckily, some kind sumartian did help us out because he did have cables in his trunk.
I'm going to get a pair of those cables tomorrow along with a new battery.
I think Sam and I were extremely lucky that the car stalled 10 minutes from home. The universe works in mysterious ways. The more I think about it, it had been raining the past few days but on the day of our anniversary, it stopped. A little muggy, but over all fine. And my car held up even though I was all the way on the other side of Orlando. Only today, when I was so close from home, did my car give out on me. Lucky indeed.
Sure, I have to shell out for a new battery, but it's not the end of the world. And thank goodness that it happened when it did. I can't imagine trying to ask for a jump at Downtown Disney.
Alas, I have been busy with my summer classes and haven't been able to blog much for a bit. But, hopefully I can rectify that once my classes are over. They are wrapping up and I'm on the home stretch.
