House of Dioxin

What happened was I got in my car to go home from work last Tuesday and the battery light came on as soon as I started the engine. It stayed on all the way home. (on the up side, I did get all the way home) And all the way to XDU that night. And all the way home from XDU. Maybe it's just me, but there's something disquieting about driving around with a glowing red warning light on your dashboard. So Wednesday AM I picked up a rental from Avis to get me around town for a couple of days. It was a Chevy Cavalier which I have to say (to the horror of some, no doubt) was a perfectly decent, if distinctly unmemorable drive. And today we drove out to Carmax. I had a list of several cars that seemed like possibilities but fell in love with the first one we test drove. Which is now sitting in the backyard here. It's a 95 Camry. Pics as soon as I take some and figure out how to post 'em. Oh yeah, and the unexpected bonus thing: the Cam has a tapedeck not a CD player (I'll have to move the one that's in the Prelude now) so I pulled out some tapes and got to hear stuff that I hadn't heard in ages.
like fun!
