Guess I Need a New Tire

Heading out of the house and to the car, I just happened to notice the rea right tire seemed a little low on air. So I went ove to check it and didn’t see an nail or anything visibly wrong. But it was definitely low on air. The only place around here that I know with an air machine is the Thornton’s gas station. They have an air machine off to the side and they charge a buck twenty-five for about 3 minutes of air. If you have to pump up all four tires, be prepared to spend five buck in quarters at the air machine.

Anyway, I pumped it back up to 30 psi and went to work. At lunch I decided to talk a walk outside to the parking lot and check the tire. The fucker is running low again. There must be a nail in it that I don’t see or maybe a leak from the valve. I don’t know.

This is just my luck. I wanted to wait until November to get 2 new tires fro the car. Now it looks like I need to get one ASAP. I don’t like getting just one tire, so now I’ve got to scramble and find some extra cash to buy two tires a month earlier than planned. Ain’t that the way it goes? FML
