We are heading out soon for Idaho, a really long car ride for the kids. It's suppose to be 107 in Spokane on tomorrow. Luckily we aren't leaving until Sunday and it's cooling down and little. So we decided to buy a double screen dvd player for the car, get one on sale at Target, bring it home doesn't work. Jon spends what seems like hours out in the car cursing at it and trying various things. I take it back, get another, bring it home, plug into lighter and nothing, nada, zippo. Unbelievable. I plug in electric pump thingy, works just fine, make sure switch is on, yep, just not working. I take it back exchange for more expensive brand name not on sale. Plug it in the in the house (this one has a outlet plug, the other didn't), it works, happy day, right? Plug into car, nothing. It seems the Subaru lighter plug is hosed. Works for some things but not others. Jon does some research and concludes it has a weird shape. So he goes to the store gets nifty thingy that turns car lighters into regular outlet type plug and plugs it in; it blows a freakin' fuse! Not our lucky damn day.
Not to mention the kids are all screwed up from staying up to watch the fireworks and extremely grouchy all day and then Jon stays home but gets slammed with big work problem, so I'm on my own with two extremely grouchy children. Thankfully they are asleep now!
