bad luck much?
SO i'm on my way to work this morning when I hit a little snag, tread separation. Luckily the tire didn't blow, or the snag might have become a real problem. But it was an annoyance as I was an hour from home, and a full day of work ahead of me. Luckily I was able to get a new tire on my lunch break (Ouch $50) and not worry about tire places being closed once I got off of work.
On the way home I got to thinking about it though. I have had incredibly bad luck lately, mostly with my car but the desktop mini-death was a pain too. I start to list all the things that have happened in the past year and I hope that I am getting a good luck accumulation, because I have had enough bad luck to cancel it out.
Anyway, just so anybody who wonders knows how much bad luck I am talking about here goes:
Oct. 2004: Socorro Hailstorm, my previous car totalled
Nov. 2004: Replacement car gets flat tire, tire has to be replaced
Feb. 2005: Less than a week after switching insurance car gets broke into, luckily I added comprehensive in the new policy
Mar. 2005: Snow so deep that car gets stuck in it for nearly a week, who said we don't get snow in the desert? Battery dies, and had to be replaced
Early Apr: Mud causes the tires to get off-balance and alignment out of whack, expensive to get set right again
Today: Tread separation, resulting in new tire requirement
Now I know to some all of this wouldn't seem so bad, but this is starting to hurt the wallet. Oh well...
Since this is Saturday, and I am on a different computer than the story is on, no post today.
Bye
