Happy New Year's Eve, kiddies.

So yesterday when I got home, I was parking and heard a cracking type sound. Like glass breaking. Under my tire.

Crap.

I walked back to see what it could have been and found some metallic something or other that was all shattered. So I'm guessing I drove over it. I was relatively certain my tire was okay, but I am the biggest worrier I know.

So today I needed to go get groceries. When I got out to my car, my front driver's side tire looked semi-flat. Crap. I wasn't sure if it was a new phenomenon, or if my paranoia made me think it was worse.

So I went to a nearby gas station to fill it. Unfortunately, they didn't have a tire gauge. Stupid gas station.

There was no way I was going to blow up my tire by over-inflating it, so I filled the tire a bit and endeavored to find a tire shop.

Closed.

Next tire store: closed.

Luckily, next door there was a car parts shop, so I bought a tire gauge. Which I really should have had in the first place.

I checked my tires and they had a maximum PSI at 44. So I started testing the tires.

First tire (the one that looked low): didn't register at all. Nothing.
Second tire: 20 PSI
Third tire, front: 25 PSI
Fourth tire: 15 PSI

I can't believe how bad I am at taking care of my car.
