So I pull into work Tuesday morning, park the car. Walk around to the passenger side to get my pack and goodies. I hear a hissing noise. Fearing it was something in the engine, I walked closer to the front. Nope, not the engine, but my right front tire slowly beginning to sag. I check the stem, and hear the airflow change sound as I fiddle with it. Oh great.

Colleen and Marcus came up for lunch. Marcus spent a bit of time flirting with all the women he could lay his eyes on here. They all enjoyed his presence.

So come 515pm, a co-worker and I are working on getting my bad tire off the car, and the spare on. One of the lugs was so tight, it sheared my lug wrench. I had to borrow another co-worker's lug wrench to finish the job.

I went to C&R Tire this morning. Got there maybe just after 8am. I was out of there about an hour and a half later, just to change a valve stem. Only cost me $15. Better that than buying one or two new tires. Got to work around 1030am.

Mom-in-law's coming up tonight for a few days. My parents are in PA for a few days, so we're taking care of their kitties.

No new mouse stories to tell.

Until 1 May, I am the sole phone answerer in the support department. Since Monday, I've been inundated with calls, voice mails, and emails. Trying to juggle them all and still find time to breathe is a daunting task, indeed. If I'm doing the work of at least two people, maybe three, I should be getting more money.
But oh well.
