AAA Jump #1

I went to go get the postcards and the car wouldn't start. I had accidentally left the lights on for three hours. Three hours, is that all it takes? Bloody hell. So now, as if I have the spare hour, I'm going to get AAA to come give me a jump, and drive it around till she's stable again. the good news is that I booked two more events, The Passenger Stop, and The Grailville Art & Bookstore.

    Three hours? That's not good. Maybe I had better lend you a charger for the duration of the trip.

    Hi Joe, Well, it would be appreciated. The car died again later last night, the master lights are still flashing, and obviously I have to take it in on Tuesday and I don't know any mechanics that I can trust in the Bay Area that also work on 20 yr-old Isuzus. But the valet guy who was there when it died the 2nd time taught me how to jump it on a push. If you know of any guys in the East Bay that are good to go to for a check up on Tuesday, please let me know and I'll come do that.
