A Tire Too Far
I’ve needed new tires on my car for some time now. I just never seemed to find the time to take it in and get it taken care of. Today, however, my car made the decision for me. Sometime after I arrived at work, one of the tires decided to go flat.
No problem. I have one of those emergency air compressors that you can use to inflate a tire. Wrong! Turns out I hadn’t charged it up for a long time, and charging it takes several hours. I wound up having to put the emergency spare on and head over to Dobbs.
Now, $500+ later, I have a new set of tires, and my emergency compressor is charging itself. Guess the car was tired of me putting this off.
