three

This morning I was driving to work when suddenly I heard a little thump from my tyres. Somehow I was quite alerted. Normally I would’ve just ignored that thump but today I felt something was wrong. After that thump, my tires started making a “ggrrrkkk” sound everytime it rolled. I thought I must’ve run over something, like a nail or something equally horrible so I pulled over. I checked my tyres and they seemed okay so I drove on. However the “grrrkkk” sound persisted so I called mr boyfriend to ask him what he thought. He told me to turn the car around, go home and catch a cab, then he’d drop me home from work. So I did as I was told and when I was driving into the parking lot of my apartment, I asked the security to help me check my tyres and he pointed to a LARGE nail sitting comfortably IN my front tyre! Good thing I drove back home!

Once again, the day was saved, thanks to mr boyfriend.

But.. what’s with this roll of bad luck? They say bad things happen in threes, so I’m hoping this is the last of it.

Is this a habit of yours, falling off of things?

Only when you’re there to catch me.
