How do you know when you are having a bad day???? When this happens....
Yesterday, while I went shopping with my friend Shannon, I took the truck into Power Chevy right by the mall to get the oil changed and the tires rotated. I then picked it up at 4 when they were closing and started to drive home. I got to Power and Guadalupe, a mile from the dealership, and all of a sudden my truck falls to the ground and starts grinding on the road as I try to brake to a stop. Then I see my tire fly across the intersection! It went rolling all the way down Guadalupe while I sat holding up traffic on Power! I had no idea what happened. Then this old lady started chasing down my tire, and found most of the lugnuts for me even though there was traffic all over the intersection. It was really weird. She brought me my tire back somehow. Some other lady called the cops to come and help, and I called the service department that did my tires and they started freaking out! SOMEONE THERE DIDNT DO THEIR JOB RIGHT BECAUSE MY TIRE FLEW OFF MY CAR WHILE I WAS DRIVING!!! Now, my truck needs all kinds of work.

Now, my truck needs all kinds of work.Then Power Chevy sent a tow truck for my truck, and took me back to the dealership to get me a rental. Well, the rental place closed before we got there. Then you know what happened? They guy driving me BACKED INTO A SIGN AND BROKE THE BACK WINDSHIELD OF THE COMPANY CAR!!!! There was glass falling EVERYWHERE!! Oh, and it was the guys first day by the way. Ha!
So, Power Chevy is sweating in their boots right now because they are liable for all this. I was in danger, my truck might be broken forever, and the drivers around me could have been seriously hurt if that tire hit them in that intersection. All I have to say is that is a good thing I didn't take the freeway like I always do, cuz this might have been an even worse story. So we are going to the dealership tomorrow at 9 to discuss what will happen to our truck. P.S. Does anyone know any good lawyers???
Here is my truck in the middle of the intersection.

Here is a look at the other side of my truck. The wheel is all bent to crap and it was MISSING A LUGNUT!!!

This is the guys company van that he busted while I was in it. And did I mention that it was his first day on the job???!!!

Here is our poor truck being towed.

This is the cop that was helping me. He was also making fun of me and my AWESOME liscence plate! 
I am lucky that there were so many people there to help me, that I didnt take the freeway, and that the guy at the dealership was still there because they had just closed at 4. So I will keep you all updated about the truck tomorrow.
