What's up people?

I had some car trouble last weekend. My car wouldn't start when I was trying to head out to the grocery store. Thank goodness for AAA. I called them, and in less than an hour, the guy showed up, diagnosed a dead battery, and replaced it. Awesome! The battery was the one that came with the car, so it was about 5 years old. I guess that's a long life in battery years.

Still loving the warmer than normal winter. No snow makes me happy.

I love AAA. My parents were members all my life, so as soon as I got a car when I turned 22 and was out of college and on my own, I signed up and have been a member ever since. We use them often, especially stopping at their office getting maps and all kinds of travel info as well. It's all free with the membership.

I've been tempted to get AAA for years, maybe I should. I had a good friend in Hawaii who drove a tow truck for AAA. He was really good-looking in a California surfer-guy kind of way and I suspect that women were purposely pulling off their battery cables just so he would come out and rescue them.

I'm a big fan of AAA. They've bailed me out of a lot of problems over the years from tires to batteries to a broken wiper motor. They even save me money on hotels, movies and other stuff.
