more car trouble

 Did I tell you my car was at the shop for three months and they didn't find anything wrong with it?

Yesterday I went out to drive to my therapy session and the goddamn car wouldn't let me in. To explain, I have a car with keyless everything, the "key" is a fob you just keep in your pocket.  This is very cool and sci-fi until it doesn't work.  You also can't open the hood without getting at a switch inside the car.

Luckily I have a brother I talk to almost every day, and he googled it.  There was like ONE idea that might work.  So I went out this afternoon, held the handle open and thumped on the door, and my car opened.

My first sensation was relief.  Then I was like, what a shitty lock.  But anyway, hopefully now the mechanic can fix whatever happened.  I think my battery is dead.  I mean, the car's battery.  Which is a pain in the ass, since it just got replaced last summer.

In other news, I have a lingering sinus infection and can't stop watching Mythical Kitchen videos on youtube.  No clue whether those two are related.
