Hey y’all, sorry for such a lame first thread topic but after using the search tool as best I can, I’m still not any closer to an answer.

I’ve got a 2000 Limited with a 6 month old battery. Yesterday morning, all was well. Later in the day I go to run some errands and the engine turns over a bit slower than normal prior to starting (you tend to notice little stuff in a daily driver). Realizing I had forgotten something at my house I turned around and as I’m pulling into the parking lot, the power to my stereo head unit goes blank and my ABS light came on. Also noticed my Ultragauge light had gone dark. Deciding I’d better park it for a minute I turned it off, ran into my house and when I went to start it again, it half turned over once followed by the rapid clicking I’m sure most have heard at one time or another. I still have full power to the interior stuff like lights, doors, windows etc. but that’s it. Any ideas? Just my luck that the mechanic I take it to isn’t open until Tuesday so I’ve gotta arrange a ride to work with the girlfriend in the morning (should prove fun) and so I was just hoping for any guesses you knowledgeable folks might have before I bring it in Tuesday after work. There hasn’t been any other warning signs leading up to this. I’ve sunk about 10k into this thing over the past year (tranny, rear diff and the list goes on) but I love it nonetheless and it’s given me years of otherwise dependability. Appreciate any help or opinions you might have!

PS: please be easy on me. I promise I used the search tool. Scout’s honor ;-)
