when do you look so closely at a tire? when you are at a tire store.... and i was, on this particular day because i ran into the curb and flattened my tire on the way to work, then i had a horrible day at work and then, on my way to the tire place, i went into a big pothole and flattened the donut that AAA had put on my car...and then i had to wait for the tow truck to take me to the tire place where i had to wait again.

it wasnt a great day.
