uhm...

well I kinda locked myself out of my house. Its cold outside. I went out to get a drink and check the battery charger on my SD in the garage. Then I went back in to get the light to do the work...and the door was locked..as well as every window and other door around my house.

Furthermore, the doorbell is useless, as is holding down the van's horn. I had an ingenious plan though: I was able to start up the one SD that I am working on...I was going to drive to my grandma's (about 1 mile away) and phone home..(my cell was in the basement) and tell my parents to unlock the door. However this plan was a failure as I couldn't figure out how to bypass the steering lock out. I was proud that I got the engine to run though.

What fun. Also, there is about a pound of oranges and grapefruit on my roof.

Needless to say I'll resume work on the SD tomorrow. I have a few other things to reconnect up (switch off vac line namely)

I ended up banging on the ceiling (my parents room is above the garage) with a 4 foot lead pipe. Impressively enough, I manage to break a wire for the garage door opener clean in half with the blunt end of the pipe (i had a coupler on it)....
