on the boulevard of broken dreams (and i walk alone)

i got a flat tire while working tonight, causing my shift to be cut short. oh darn. this was a strange flat tire, too. it didn’t have any pieces of metal or industrial strength plastic sticking out of it like the normal flat tires i get. instead, the outer wall has a groove in it that looks like it has been wearing down over time. i just hope that it is covered by discount tire’s road hazard warranty. i don’t need to be buyin’ no new tire.
