Ummm. Less than optimal. I just drove into town for a burger (dining hall not yet operational) and as soon as I pull out of A&W the serpentine belt snaps. So I'm faced with a dillemna: do I find a mechanic or head back to the loaf with a rapidly overheating convertible? Since i have no cell phone at the moment I decide to risk it. As soon as I reach Ripton, after ignoring the car's visual pleas that she's getting to hot, a new bell sounds and I get a flashing message that "Engine Overheating Stop Engine". I pull off 125 (a tricky feat) and pop the hood. I hear a gurgling under the bell sound. It's boiling coolant?
I stop and fish for a while until the car cools. No luck, though.
I drive it the rest of the way up and pop the hood again. I'm gonna go back down and see if that damn bell has stopped.
I can hear students banging around down stairs. Not feeling ready to face anybody yet.
