ok, I'll leave now
Drove to work yesterday morning, and I thought I heard an add sound as I was going through the garage to park. Got out, and sure enough, the left rear tire was fairly flat. I'd had problems with it a year or so ago, so I figured it was the leaky valve stem issue come back. At lunch, I went down to take it to the nearest gas station to fill it up, but it was really, really flat. So instead I pulled the jack out of the trunk and managed to get the sucker off. First thing I see is a screw embedded in the middle of the tread.
So I'll be driving D2's car today while she takes mine to the tire place near here, and with luck they can fix it, or put a used one on in place of it, 'cause we certainly can't afford a new one.
Just fuck.
Update: After determining that the screw had chewed up the rubber (and don't we all hate it when that happens, at least afterwards?), for a mere $26 a perfectly good used tire is on the car. W00t!
