Okay so I dug my car out, and the roads are... er... okay for driving.

(Listen I'm originally from Montréal. I'm going to say this: cleaning crews in the DC area DO NOT KNOW how to deal with snow. End of story. I ran into many turn lanes that were still snowed in, two lane ways that were one lane because of the snow, and don't get me started about the sidewalks. "Hey, where am I going to put the snow I take of the street. Oh, I know. On the sidewalk.")

So I got my groceries. 🥳

However, while I was driving there, my car started complaining about tire pressure. I knew I was okay for the round trip. When I got back home, I got my electronic tire inflater (inflater is not a word, apparently, but it should be, so there) out of my trunk and inflated my tires. This is a half-victory because I wish I had been on the ball before we got the temperatures we got.

Then the car decided that it couldn't detect my keyfob anymore. I still can get in and start the car, but now that's one more thing to fucking deal with.

If you can't tell... I'm tired of all this shit.

KTLA: High-tech, high-end car thefts in Southern California ‘an alarming new trend’

"...the suspect held up an antenna-like tool over his head while in close proximity to the house. The device was being used to amplify and intercept the signal from the key fob to the homeowner’s vehicle.

“They got the signal from the car, started it and took off,” he said. “My keys were in the kitchen. It’s not like they were at the front door. Who would’ve thought someone would come with an antenna and take your car away from you?”

I found this video useful as I did not know how to replace my key fob’s battery. I’ve been having the dealer replace it when I go for service and I’ve gotten low battery alerts for the fob.

It's called the "Truckle," and it's a hand-crafted silver and bronze belt buckle that might be the envy of every other cowboy out there, since this one has a place to keep your F-150's key fob without ruining the lines of your jeans. "Once you have it in there, you're not going to lose that key fob. You’re not going to be scratching your head (wondering) where it’s at. It's right there with you in the Truckle."
