Ditto. Sorry if I'm gruff, it's just not been the greatest weekend. Today started at 6:30 a.m. when I rolled over in bed onto a scorpion that thought it wise to sting my right arm. So much for sleeping in on Father's Day. First time for me, and can't say it's been all that fun--those little critters pack a punch.
Yesterday afternoon when going to a birthday party I decided to pull up to the ATM and clipped the curb, putting a two-inch gash in my tire's side wall. Lots of fun trying to change a tire in an asphalt parking lot with 111 degree heat. The hilarity grew after I jacked up the car but found my jack handle/wrench did not match the smaller lug nut size on the tire used by the garage when they last replaced it, making my efforts worthless. Almost four hours and $213 total for the tow truck and new tire (decided doughnut wasn't worth using under the circumstances). A real knee slapper.
So I'm not the world's happiest camper-no excuses, just an explanation.
