Day 104 - Stranded

The starter in the car randomly stopped working, so I didn't actually get to go home today. This is bad because I actually need to go to school and have missed a lot recently for various reasons. Oh well. We're renting a car and going tomorrow, and my dad will have to drive back next weekend or something and fix the Audi.

I just kind of bummed around all day... felt sick all morning, watched tv and read some CLASSICS ILLUSTRATED! My uncle really likes old things like this, and has a bunch of this series... I mean, it's nostalgia, too, because they're what he, my father, and their siblings read when they were younger. The covers and illustrations are really pretty fantastic... I'll have to photograph some and upload them.

This one particularly appealed to me because of the two battling dinosaurs on the front. Clearly I have a nine-year-old boy hiding out in the back of my head.
