Procrastinating is going to cost me another $80
I finally got off my ass today, and was going to throw up my 94 Camaro on craigslist and autotrader. I haven't driven it much in the 4 months since I got my new car, and figured I'd take it around the block a couple times to circulate the fluids and make sure it's still running smooth... only to discover the battery had died. ARGHH! Time to procrastinate a little more, I guess

Hooray, was just a little weak from self-discharge! Came right back up after charging for a bit. Phew 
So, ah, anyone looking to buy a '94 Camaro? Battery's still good!

Drove it again today- no issues whatsoever. Makes me wonder why I even stopped driving it in the first place.
Oh wait, yeah, now I remember

Not to be a dick, if your father is a manager or even a retail sales person, he should have seen the white poster that is by the battery and alternator/starter machine. It clearly states every procedure and how to go about doing something with a battery.
