Just got an amusing message from my wife

[Verbosity]

(4:14:59 PM) MS: My car was acting weird today.
(4:15:16 PM) JC: .. go on
(4:15:43 PM) MS: Well, the ABS light was on, but it comes on periodically anyway, so I wasn't too worried about it.
(4:15:47 PM) MS: Then the radio went off.
(4:15:50 PM) MS: And wouldn't come back.
(4:15:54 PM) MS: Then it randomly did.
(4:15:59 PM) MS:And it continued in this way for a while.
(4:16:08 PM) MS: And my doors began locking and unlocking randomly as well.
(4:16:20 PM) MS: Then all my needles (speed, rpm, ect.) began twitching.
(4:16:28 PM) JC: Wow... I was expecting.. the engine made a funny noise
(4:16:30 PM) MS: Then all the lights went off, and the engine reved
(4:16:40 PM) MS: So I pulled over to call you, decided to restart, and it was fine.


I figure the alternator..
It's amusing to me, because I really was expecting her to say it pulled to the left or something

lol ok my girlfriend calls me with that all the time. She tells me problem and I'm trying to diagnose through text message then her last message ten minutes later is "but it stopped half an hour ago." I always am left wondering what happened in that half hour that it didn't make sense to call me and tell me car had a freak out.

I am however with guy above I don't think you need a mechanic but a lot of holy water and a priest!
