New battery: 70 dollars

basically a new alternator: you don't want to know...

spending one of the longest mornings of my life at autozone: priceless...

Relationships are alot like shopping carts.  There some people who always get the ones with four great, perfectly aligned wheels, and then there are those who hate to go shopping.  I mean, there are the carts that have the one wheel that doesn't move at all.  The ones that have the constant shaking, the thuds, etc.

Breakdown?  Breakthrough?
