That is what I thought, but the strange thing is the passenger side still works fine. I wonder if I can still blame the flasher?

It's likely something other than a lamp problem because the turn signal would flash faster with only a lamp burnt out.
Thanks! Yeah, no warning lights on. I got the car back from a shop today that did some other repairs and I tried it again... at first it didn't come on, then it did, flashed "off-tempo" like 4 times, then went back out and didn't come back on at all. Passenger side turn signal still working fine. When it was working however, sometimes I could hear it clicking, then I couldn't hear the click, but it was still flashing and working on the outside.
