Today was an interesting day. While driving home I had a tire mishap. On the positive side, I found out that I could change a tire by myself (woo hoo!). On the negative side, I spent most of the evening at Firestone for repairs. In a way it was good because the incident forced me to take care of a few car maintenance things that had been on my list: new tires, a realignment, and an oil change. All said and done, I proved that I could put on a spare, my car is up and running, and I am $416 poorer. At least this minor road bump (oh, the irony) happened at a time that was not inconvenient.

DRAT! Very, very relieved you didn't have a blow out on the 610-Loop during rush hour traffic. It is, however, confidence-building to know you can change a tire. Hang in there, Bubba.
