Strange Night

Yesterday I had a strange night. It was not that extremely dramatic, but still want to document it.

It started after I finished a ballet class. I was in good mood since I like that fact that my instructor paid attention to me. Yeah I am such a attention freak. And then I got a chance to talk to the awesome pianist for our class. All was well .

Then I drove home. And while I was at the intersection between 610 and 59, I started to feel a lot of vibration, and then turned into some rumbling sounds. I had no choice but to slow down my car, and slowly craw my way off the freeway.

I was maintaining 10 - 20mph while my hazard light on. So far no driver wanted to kill me.

Then I found a gas station along the road, so I drove my car to the gas station partly because I wanted to check what was going on with my car, partly because I realized that I was about to run out of gas.

I first checked my car, and found that the front right tire was blown up. A big piece of surface was peeled off from the tire. Horrible. I knew I need to get a new tire.

However, I swapped my credit card at two different gas pump, and shouldn't get them operated. Frustrated, I drove away.

Then I saw a Philip 66 gas station. I tried again, and this time 2 of the gas pump recognized my credit card, but failed to give me any gasoline after I pressed the handle. Fustrated, I went away once again.

Finally I got into Chevron gas station, and got my car filled up. After then I continue to drove home at 15 mph.

So that's pretty much it. I went to Discounted Tire, got a new tire to replace the old one. End of the story.
