So my dad decided to go check it out and turns out the battery cable was loose. I didn't have time to start messing with anything since I had to go to work but wish I would have at least had the time to pop the hood and check real quick as I would have probably caught that.

It's weird though, because it literally started like a minute before that not to mention I drove it around before, so I just automatically assumed it was something electronic.
Loose battery connection is a very common problem. Connector may need to be changed.

Yeah will do that tomorrow, at least I know it's nothing serious. Didn't have time to check or do anything this morning and considering it started literally 2 minutes before I figured it was something more serious.

I'm slowly coming to the realization I need to move into a bigger house. There just isn't any room here for the amount of pinball and arcade games I want to own.

Kitchen sink's been dripping forever, and I bought a cartridge set awhile ago, but since I don't have shutoffs under the sink, I didn't put them in cause I didn't feel like turning the mains off. Had to go in the basement today, so I figured it was a good time to get it done. Cartridges came with a couple little springs and seals, and I didn't remember them from before, so I thought "Whatever...", and installed the cartridges without them. Well, the sink's still dripping, and looking up a video showed me the part I should've put in. The drip's way slower than before, so I'm calling it good enough til I have to go in the basement again, but that's annoying as shit. The seals are in the cabinet, and I just have to remember they're in there. We'll see...
