i am STRANDED in my office, NEED HELP QUICK, damn it.

i was suppose to go to autozone to get my cel check out. but when i step in the car i put the key into the ignition nothing happened. normally i hear a sound that of something being engaged but this time nothing happened, i opened the door and it tell me to removed the key on the screen. i diconnected the battery for like a min and reconnected it, the clock still had the right time. and its still the same. the remote door and truck still works. so i am here back at my office again stranded first time ever. i am glad i am in my office and not somewhere else. this is why i missed my 1991 acura legend so damn much with over 200k on it and never let me down once.

Battery is likely: these engines don't turn over slowly like we're used to on other cars when the juice is low; they just don't turn at all.
