So, I got in the Infiniti to drive to school. I turned the key, and nothing happened. It looks like the battery is completely dry. There's a leak in the sunroof, and somewhere else I think, so I believe it must have been a short that ran down the battery. I checked the headlights twice.

So, the problem is that only the Infiniti and the Nissan have parking stickers for the school, and the Infiniti was right behind the Nissan, next to the roll-off that the neighbors currently enjoy as their guest. I moved the Nissan over far enough (just enough wiggle room) that I could bring the Infiniti up and still get the Nissan out around the dumpster. Unfortunately, I couldn't seem to get the Infiniti pushed far enough up the hill. So, instead, I backed the Infiniti down the driveway, and managed to get the Nissan around.

Of course, then I get a reminder of everything that's wrong with the Nissan: the left front turn signal bulb is burned out (why haven't I fixed this yet?), it's leaking oil like a sieve, and the brake light comes on now and then. I haven't dealt with any of that because I haven't planned on driving it. Blarg.

Ah well.

Then I get stuck in traffic on I-95 (OMGZ! THE RAINDROPS! THEY BURN!). Also, the parking lot at the school is all futzed up because Bob Woodruff is here. There are about ten empty spaces in the law school lot, but the rent-a-fuzz won't let you up here, so you have to park in the commuter lot. Unfortunately, the commuter shuttles are constantly caught in the traffic as well.

Oh, and it's a good thing that the police were there to protect all those students at Virginia Tech from the gunman. Oh, wait, they weren't. Luckily, Virginia Tech (like most colleges) has provided a perfect environment for mass-killings: only the bad people are armed.

Those poor kids.
