OMFG today was horrible >o< Yesturday was a huge snow storm that no one was expecting. Most, like me, were caught off guard with only summer tires on their cars. Mine was deliberate though as i am going away in January and wasn't going to bother buying winter tires cuz it usually doesn't snow until January. But it is so dangerous to drive my car with the huge 15, wide, summer tires, and since we are supposed to have more huge storms on the way, it turns out that i need them anyway.
I started looking in the classifieds for a pair or a set of winter or studded tires that I could buy quickly. What i found was a perfect pair of Dunlop 185-75-R14 tires. Brand new, the pair of them for only $75.00. My father, the one who works on my car swore up and down it took 14s while I was sure it was 15s, but i trusted him and didn't bother to check.
Turns out I should have as it was unpleasant surprise to find out my tiny 2 door Saturn needs 195-60-R15s stare
I got a hold of the guy with them at my boyfriends house but mom was unavailable, and dad didn't want to go, and i had to be there before 8pm or the guy would be gone. I had 30 minutes. First Brett offered to pay for them cuz i don't get paid until thursday, then it turned out that he had just under the amount needed in his account to take enough out, so we had to track down my mom at my younger sister's confirmation. I crashed the service at around communion pretty much and we had to wait for them to get out. Then she had to remember her pin number which she didn't remember cuz she never uses her debit card, but first she had to get out of the parking lot. We had to meet her at the credit union. we were in a rush cuz the guy was leaving at 8 and we had to be there before that and we only had 10 minutes. and the damn ATM inside was out of order, so we had to go through the drive through one.
Then we had to boot it there, find the damn house, get the tires and go back to Brett's where we were locked out of the house.
All that s**t AND I CAN'T EVEN USE THE ******** THINGS >O<
I am so pissed at myself right now it's not even funny.
