my blonde moment for the week…

Talk about making myself feel like an idiot….


This morning, I noticed that the front right tire on our truck was getting a little low.
It has an extreeeemely slow leak.  So slow, it takes several weeks for it to get to where it was today.

Anyway, so after I paid for my coffee & diet vanilla pepsi & diet cherry vanilla Dr. Pepper at QuikTrip and walked back to the car, I decided to put air in that tire while I was at QT as I didn’t feel comfortable driving 45 miles to work with the tire low like it was.  [It was probably at like 25psi instead of the 35 recommended for that tire]

Drove over to the air pump, saw that the air was free.  Wooo!

Pulled air hose over to front right tire, took off the cap, and hooked up the air thingy.

Sat, and waited.  Looked down at the tire, and wondered why it didn’t seem to be getting any air.
Waited a moment more.  For a second I thought, “wow, their air compressor is mighty quiet”, and right on the heels of that thought was the realization that I didn’t push the button to turn on the stupid air compressor.

Eesh.  Seems like the tire isn’t the only thing leaking air.  :red:

See?  A very blonde-moment, and I shared it with all of you!

But I blame it on having to wake up so damn early.  Four a.m. after two months still isn’t jiving with my internal clock.  I don’t really start to function well until after 8a.m…
