meganbmooreGot flat tire on way home from errands. More specifically, the tread tore loose and flapped around while I was pulling over to investigate, but the tube stayed inflated, so I was getting "weird vibrations/sound," not "flat tire bounce." As I was on the frontage road to the highway, I decided to pull off into the nearest access road(about 20 yards.) Flapping tread stripped wires connected to the fuel system loose (we're talking about 1 1/2 ft of flapping tread, though I didn't know that yet) resulting in my car dying as I was turning.
In theory, I will have my car back sometime tomorrow.
In theory. They have to find out exactly what that did to the car, first. The tread also whacked the *hem* out of the car's body right around the area.
Amusingly, I came home to notifications from ebay that I won 2 auctions.
And to a message fromtelophasethat what I am officially calling a Care Package of books was on the way. (Free books>>>Anything. Except free car repairs. Which I will not get.)
And now I will read and have milk and cookies while I decide whether I want to watch Hellboy or Onmyoji, or start Hansungbyulbok tonight.
