Hold on and pretend it's a plan

On this holiday day, I had a couple of things I could get done:

1. My car battery is a little over five years old and starting express reluctance about starting on these cold mornings. I could get the battery replaced.

2. I started reading the Belgariad series about a week ago by buying book one and giving it a try. I could get other books in the series.

I think it's clear which was the correct decision. (leaving aside the possibility of doing both things)

Happily, Borders had all four remaining books in stock. Yippee! More fun reading lies ahead. :)
