Anyway, my husband took my car to Montana. I'm flying out there tomorrow and we're driving home. This week, I had to use his car for transportation. My First World Problem is that his car needs a KEY to start it!! 😣 AND I have to use the key fob to unlock the doors!! 😣 My car has push-button start and it automatically unlocks when I get near it with the key in my purse.
And then, to make matters worse, I had to push the key fob button TWICE to unlock all four doors! UGH!
He told me he really likes driving my car. I told him not to get used to it.... [ram27bat]
Hate it when the clock with the hands on my double oven can't stay in synch with the digital clock on the microwave oven that sits above the two ovens and came with it as a set.
The power on/off button on the remote for the TV works but doesn't work for the cable box: cable company wants me to ship the b.o. remote controller back before they'll ship a replacement and I have to pay shipping. Now I hav/te to get up and push the cable box power button.
Google maps on my android loses its signal and the back-up Garmin is out of juice.
Imagine what happens when the battery to the key fob dies....

Just be happy you don't have to suffer with a BMW i8:

Summary: You pull into your garage which is enclosed and attached to your house. You forget to shut the car off and your fob is still in range. Car keeps running and you get sleeepy, sleeeeepy... then never wake up again due to carbon monoxide poisoning. If I remember correctly this happened to an elderly couple last year here in MA.
Next time I take it off, it'll probably be relegated to collecting dust and cob webs in my basement.

Good thing I don't park in the garage. Although, with all the holes in my garage, I'm not sure this would be a problem anyway.
Yesterday morning at breakfast, some schmoe in line ahead of me took the last of the bacon and then didn't even eat it. [ram27bat]
