Worst Day Ever
Today has just been the worst day ever and I’m ready for it to fuck right off.
Work is crazy at the moment, so it was a rough day before I’d even finished work, but thats not why it was so shit.
Oh god, no.
So I took my oldest son for a swimming lesson, and on the way there we hit a HUUUGE fucking pothole that was covered by a swimming pool puddle.
Immediately the car started complaining that the pressure was low on my front right tyre.
Fucking great. Puncture. Thanks Wrexham council and your shitty fucking roads.
While my oldest is in his lesson, I head out to sort it. Problem is, like most modern cars, I dont have a spare. Instead I have the cheapest air compressor possible, along with a little tub of useless goo that’s apparently going to seal the puncture. Also, the car park is pitch black and I can’t see a thing.
Using my phone as a torch, I get the useless bottle of goo connected to the shittiest compressor on the planet, and I squirt that shit into my tyre.
But my car was still reporting the front right as flat.
So I limp the car round to the other side of the car park where there’s lighting, only to notice that the front left tyre feels flat.
I get to the floodlit part of the car park and sure enough, it’s the left fucking tyre that’s flat.
How the absolute fuck is my car reporting the wrong tyre as being flat???
…and now I have a bottle of useless fucking goo injected into a perfectly good tyre too.
By this time my son has finished his lesson and is waiting patiently in the car while I call for recovery, and for my wife to come get him.
An hour later recovery turns up, they put a spare on and I limp the car home. The car is now impotently sat on my drive with the flat tyre reinstated.
Oh, did I mention that the flat tyre is only a month old, too?
Yeah. Fuck you, tyre gods.
I’ll have to take the day off work to get the tyre replaced tomorrow.
We’re not done yet
So it’s around 10pm; I get home, very angry at this point. I’m pottering round, tidying up, and I notice something looks weird in the aquarium in my office.
One of my favourite fucking fish has died too.
Fuck today.
