So, after I got a 76 today on my ID exam (ya, don't just study the case scenarios--unless you are happy with a 76) I decided to blow some steam off and finally fix my Altima that has been permanently stationed in my driveway. To my disgust, you can't get an Alternator for a 99 Altima for less than $200! So, I shelled out the cash today, and Justin and I (more like Justin and himself) replaced it.

Getting the alternator out wasn't too difficult. The problem was dropping a bolt somewhere in the deep dark crevices of the engine that no man has ever seen before. Justin (since he did everything) fished it out (I tell you, he is truly born to be a surgeon)--and we were home free. Of course, until I took off the coolant tube, which drenched my driveway in MULEPAK (google it, this acronym will help for physiology).

Anyway, the Altima and all it's childish mess (you know, cheerios, bread crumbs, cookies, and random chew toys) can be found around campus. It is the one that is "feeling lucky" (don't get it? What is my nickname?).
