Wierd Morning

SO I wake up this morning and look out the window and see a huge white spot on top of my car, and I'm thinking great, some kids did something to the car last night, and now I'm going to have to go thru the hassles of dealing with the ins. co.
Once I get outside I find that it's just some bird sh!t, apparently some birds got into the dumpster behind the mexican restaurant, b/c there's crap EVERYWHERE, but just on my car.

So here's where the wierd part happens, I get in my car, turn on the ignition and right away realize something's not right, the ac is on, a little more than half strength, and the a/c on light is lit. Now when I use the ac, I primarily use the auto feature, and even if I somehow manually set the fan strength, the a/c on light usually doesn't come on, unless you hit the a/c button as well to shut it off and then turn it back on.
The next thing I notice is that all my radio presets are gone, reset back to their original factory settings, at least I think so, I can't quite remember what they were when I got the car last yr.

So now I'm thinking someone took my car for a ride, but both my keys were right where they should be, and I live alone... so basically I'm clueless here, not to mention a little nervous, I mean I can understand about the radio presets, it may not make sense, but I guess it's possible for the presets to be reset somehow. It's the A/C being on that baffles me, can anyone offer any insight? Or did I wake up in the twilight zone?

Did you use the wrong key this morning? All those settings are coded to each keyfob. Just an idea, others here have done the same.

Sorry.. I have no insight to offer on the bird shit, that is just weird.

That's exactly what happened, the car turned on with the driver 2 settings, but the funny thing is the #2 Fob is sitting in my dresser drawer, the last time I used it was over 3 months ago.
I just went out to reset my radio settings and everything was back to normal.

I've been having problems with my bluetooth dropping the connection to my phone as well, so I think I should take it to the dealer, but of course you know they wont be able to replicate the issues.

or you mite have accidently pressed lock and unlock at the same time and disable the key fob recognition thing, i think wen you do that is goes to some default settings, that or you used the wrong key.
