So.. I returned sunday night from a week of vacation, got home around 12a (not in my car) went out Monday AM and my pax. side front tire was vary low, so I aired it up with my compressor, and went to work, figuring I would keep an eye on it... Got out of the office around 5 and it's sleeting out, yuck.. walk the 10min to my car and notice its leaning... bad... flatter than a pancake... good think I keep a spare... 10min finding the parts for the little winch that lowers the spare down, another 5 digging my jack out, finally get the flat off and the spare on... 30min wasted in the sleet (I'm definetly not in anyones pitcrew) I get the flat stowed, and start my car.. of course the wipers had frozen to the windsheild... oops, now my drivers side blade is half off.. a quick stop at Bennys and that was all set.. then had to bet the mob for overpriced cards, flowers and choc for the lil woman (she said not to but what idiot would believe that, right?)

At least I came home and she had cooked, a couple of scotches later and my day was improving....

Yuck....

Could have been worse. The missus could have dragged you to go see the "V _ g _ na Monologues" on V-Day.

My day started with my 16 month old son projectile vommiting twice in the living room. Once all over one chair, then he stumbled to a fresh chair and let go another round. The wife was away, it wasn't pretty :yak:

Bought flowers even though she said don't do anything ;)

Cooked a fantastic dinner. Rare pepper crusted filet mignon in a mushroom brandy caramel sauce with creamed russet taters and pan roasted brussels.
