well.... in spite of my ongoing electrical problem my car decided to die about 3/4 of a mile from my apt last night on my way home from work. i was right next to my bank, in the middle of a 3 lane divided road. i pushed the car into the parking lot, set the ebrake turned the wheel, left it in gear and even put it in what i thought would be a very difficult place to get it towed from. however they are pros here and snatched it sometime in the middle of the night. after calling them, setting a SPECIFIC time that i would be able to be at their lot(since they dont staff it for some reason), i get there 5 mins early. no one was there but i didnt get pissed yet, since i was early. 10 mins later, no one. so i call them and they said another 15 mins. 30 mins later(well, 21 mins actually, but i yelled 30 at them) i call back and its going to be another 10 mins. the guy finally showed up and i ripped him a new one cause i had work and very important things to do today(as far as he was concerned

) and being late, expecially when THEY gave me a time to meet them was very un-business-like. luckly, LUCKLY, no damage as i wouldnt even touch my car until i did a completewalk around, i made them show me the wrecker that hauled me in, made sure everything was semi-gravey. it ended up costing me $110 to get it out of the lot which i really could have done without. then to top things off, i caught myself not thinking and went to start pulling my alternator off and burnt the f out of my hand on the engine.
