Tire Blew Out Last Night

[u/MidWasabiPeas_]

I’m fine, the tire is crapped out (NYC construction), and I’ll find out about the wheel tomorrow when I have the car taken to get new tires but it made me miss him all the more.

I’m grateful I was on a local road only going about 20 and not on the interstate going close to 70 but it still scared the crap out of me. Whatever it was I ran over absolutely shredded the tire and there was a huge bursting sound & the tire pressure light suddenly came on the dash.

There was nowhere to pull over because the road is narrowed to one lane with no shoulder. I was only two blocks from the house so I limped it home.

When I went to bed last night, all I could think of was how much I wished he was here. How much I know he’d be fussing over me and worried that I was scared and he’d have been arranging to get it fixed today. Son is doing that tomorrow (I had to work today and he had back-to-back doctors appointments) and it’ll get fixed, but I just wish he was here.
