terrible day update.

well, went and jump-started my car before dinner. It started, but we melted my booster-cables in the process. Told dad to look at the instructions first, but oh well. His way should have worked, too.
One more thing to add to the list of 'why this is a bad week'.
On the plus side, when we came home there was a black bob-tailed cat hiding in our bushes, so I went and made freinds with him. He's been hanging around a lot recently, and I think it's cause I/my car smells like animals. As I've said, a kitty can make any day better.
