I pulled into Wal-Mart today and a lady pulls behind me as I am getting out of the car,and asks me if I knew I had a FLAT? Good grief,Tammi? Can't you TELL by now when you are riding on flat?My back passenger side was all the way on flat.So I'm thinking maybe the weather...or heck,I don't know...the stupid thing had tread!What's the problem?So I'll just get a can of fix-a-flat,and off I'll go....WRONG!!Nothing EVER happens when you are dressed cool,and hair is done etc...it always wants to do this stuff when you are looking like my Mom says "40 going north"(whatever that means).Hair in the pony tail,shorts in cool weather,etc...Such things just never happen when you are all jazzed-up.So being the do-it-yourself person that I am,I put the tire in the 6 o'clock position,and screw in the can.THEN the can gets stuck on there.I forgot it's "right-ee tight-ee,leftee loose-ee.So I get the can stuck on there when Halleluia! Help arrives.Then HE breaks the can off and has to cut and break off the white part, then white stuff starts bubbling out of the tire stem thingy.Him and anotherother guy that stopped proceed to take out the speakerbox,along w/ all the towels and 5 tire washing brushes I didn't even know I kept throwing back there,and put on the little unsafe barbie tire.
Luckily,I was not off in the country by myself.I would have been up the creek without a padddle.For ONE I have a big speakerbox that is too heavy to get out and unplug(no I haven't grown out of the boom-boom-stuff) and if it weren't for tire companies safely drilling on the lug-nuts,I could get the suckers off...but I have to break down and admit.Men ARE needed in alot more areas than I want to admit sometimes.ha ha.They were 2 really nice guys,but I thought they were gona literally get into an arguement w/ each other about how far to drive the donut/barbie tire.But I already knew the chances you take on those chizzlers...so off I go to replace the tire.I forgot to ask the guy what the problem was with my tire.(ding-ding) But I'm guessing by the hissing and the fact it wouldn't hold air means...who cares?? It's not holding air,gotta get another one.I need to get 4 new tires eventually...but I HATE spending $$ on tires.I'd rather buy a purse.Anything but tires.LOL...I guess I'd rather chance getting a flat.
Oh...today I was watching the movie "Bridgette Jones,the Edge of Reason"...something like that...and I started thinking: I wonder how many of my blogger buds talk like that?Even though I know Renee Zellwegger wasn't born with an English accent,she sure sounds convincing.I seen her on something once and she said she had a trainer to help her learn to talk like that.It's just too cool!!But I never hear people on TV that sound like they are from Texas...odd,really...like on the movie "Pure Country".Leslie Ann Warren didn't sound like she was from the south,but I can tell when they are trying to sound southern.Billy Bob Thornton sounds alot like somebody kin to me,and he's from Arkansas.Not Texas.lol..I only know of ONE person who talks like the lady from England,btw.She works at a store in this hillbilly town.I so I just HAD to ask her what in the world brought her to this tiny spot on the map? And I was so surprised to hear her say she had met her husband on the internet a few years ago,and eventually moved here.How romantic,huh? I never hear anybody say that.(well,accept my best friend who lost her hubby for another woman he met online).Bummer,cuz she won't even use her computer anymore.Then again,since he's been gone,she had to go back to work....(rambling)...But I just HAVE to know if anyone talks like Mark,or Bridgette,or the others in this movie.
