Little Purple Car Update

araquan hit the nail on the head: it was condensation from the car's A/C. I called the mechanic this morning and mentioned that, and he said, "yeah, that's just what we found. A hose had popped loose."

They repaired it so quickly that it all fell within that first hour diagnostic fee -- so it was only $123. But something was actually wrong and got fixed, so it was neither wasted time nor wasted money. Yay!

I'm actually not sure if my little attempt to drive Over The Hedge was responsible or not.
