Car stuff

The battery in my car is getting... tired. The starter kicks over sluggishly, making an embarrassing rrr....rrr...rrr noise before the motor kicks off. I suppose this cool weather is affecting it. The battery has never been the same since it was allowed to run dead-flat in May. I think I need a new one.

We call it a "jump start" here. Giving a car a jump-start gets it going, but jumping a car requires a lot of leaping whereas jumping a person... well, that could also involve a lot of leaping. It depends on the strength of the bed.
