I was bored at home and very cold. Apparently, days before I left for KY, the heating unit stopped working. Whether this disabling was due to the lack of fuel or some yet undiagnosed electrical failure is neither here nor there, beyond prefacing the note that it is still very cold in the apartment, and further, that cold was the catalyst to an early departure. The sufficient origin of a hasty exit was an earlier phone call to Quinn, and, to complete the trio of reasons, the cold and boredom of home.
So I step outside to start the car.
