So I've been planning this trip for months now. I've contacted all the right people. I've gotten places to stay, my light kit came in and my car came back from the shop. This morning was the beginning of what was supposed to be a 2 week trip to Houston and back. Unfortunately, my car had other plans.
A while ago I got a fix-it-ticket for my front driver side headlight being out. No biggie. I just have to stop in and show the cops I got a new bulb. I pull into the police station and park. I then proceed to get out my car walk in and find out that I have to go to another station because they aren't cool enough to look at the shitclipse. No biggie. It'll put me in Vegas about 30 min late but I'm fine with that. I'll be rolling in after dark anyway. I go back to my car and sit down. I put the key in the ignition, turn it and "click click whine". I laugh to myself and swear. I try it again and "nothing". I then proceed to punch the ceiling so hard there is now a dent.
It turns out that there is a short somewhere in my engine. The alternator works and the battery works but the power from the alternator won't reach the battery. WHAT THE FUCK!
So now I'm here, stranded, looking for flights out of San Diego to Houston. It's looking like it'll cost just as much for the ticket alone as it would have to drive there and back.
FML.
