-Went on a photography fieldtrip to Oakland Cemetery (pictures to follow sometime later this weekend)
-Filed a claim with my insurance after my car got broken into while I was on said fieldtrip (nothing important was taken, thank goodness)
- Hit up Ace to get supplies to patch up my window and made an appointment to have it replaced while at work on Monday
-Went grocery shopping and spent enough to then save $.10/gallon when filling my gas tank next
-Chased a roll-away apple juice down the driveway (This is actually what inspired me to post today. It was just too funny that I had to put it out there for someone else to visualize and laugh at with me!)
Next I'll be getting ready for John's show with Corey tonight down in Macon. I'm looking forward to turning my music up on my drive down there in order to drown out the flapping of my temporary plastic window :)
An attempt at running commentary as I try to improve myself physically, mentally, spiritually and otherwise through various endeavors over the next 12 months.

Houston, We Have a Problem
Soooooo, this morning I got in the car and turned on the air conditioning. It was blowing out perfectly cool air. No problem. But my windshield was all fogged up so I flipped it to defrost for just a few minutes so that I could see. Then I flipped it back to cool AC and..........................................
Nothing.
It kept blowing hot air out the vent under the windshield. It wouldn't switch vents, and it wouldn't change temperatures. I tried turning the air on and off. I tried moving the switches back over to defrost and slowly moving them toward AC. Once I got to work I turned my car off and back on. Still nothing.
I'm hoping that after work my car will decide to start working for me again. Maybe if the engine cools off or something? I dunno. I don't know how that all ties in and what would be causing it to get stuck on one setting. So keep your fingers crossed for me! In the meantime I was getting sweated out of my own car (can you say that? Oh well. I just did.) I had to roll down the windows and let in the refreshing 75-degree outside air in order to cool off. lol. That's right, 75 is the new 60. How redic is that?
Anyways, I guess if nothing else I'll be thankful that if it's hot air, it's stuck on the vent that's NOT blowing directly in my face, and also that we're heading OUT of summer, not INTO it. Though, we've still got a ways to go. So I reeeaaaalllly hope my AC starts working again soon.
Update: No worries! My AC started up fine when I got in after work. Not sure what was going on this morning, but I'll be leaving it where it is from now on just in case!
