    Dinner was and still is usually between 6 and 6:30.

    Not good, I don't recommend it.
    I've done that a number of times though not necessarily when I'd just woken up.

    There was one time though when I was walking down the steps from my old bedroom at my moms house during the middle of the night and my foot slipped on the carpet and I fell and wound up sliding halfway down the flight of 9 stairs on my butt. Our dog had apparently been sleeping in the 2nd floor hall (my room was in the attic) or on my moms bed and when she heard me sliding down the steps she came up, looked at me for a minute then went back and laid down in the hall.

    I once walked into either the basement door or a closet door that had been left open. Again, not when just waking up in the morning, but just one evening after dark when the hall light wasn't on.

    Did that Saturday night. Was at a friends house, missed the last step of the stairs to their basement, fell slightly, foot hit a wet spot on the floor causing me to slip and fall and land on some broken glass that was on the floor. I've got a nasty cut on my right hand and left knee from it.

    Granted, I was slightly buzzed after 7-8 beers and the basement ceiling is lined with Christmas lights which my friend has circuited to blink to music, which is very, very disorienting. So that might have had something to do with missing that last step.
    So, why was there a wet spot and broken glass on the floor?

        I found a place about 45 minutes North of here that sells used tires and I'm going to buy one for $35.00

        I just need something to get me by until after Christmas, then I can buy a new set. No one even keeps 215/45 R18's in stock. That's what I get for having such off the wall rims and tires.

        I'll end up spending close to $800, when it comes time to buy tires.
        I have the same problem. Whenever I go to the shop and they see what size my tires/rims are, they look at me like I have two heads.

              Glass: They like to throw beer bottles down the stairs to smash them at the end of the night. Friday night I and several others were over there (only about 10 people total) and they apparently didn't completely clean up the basement before Saturday night (where there were ~30 people total).

              Wet spot: Someone had a near full can of beer knocked from their hand fairly early in the night.

                      All I know was it started when a former owner was angry that people wouldn't leave a party, and in his drunken rage, he chucked a bottle down the stairs. Usually they only do it if they know there won't be a party there for a bit. Saturday was more along the lines of a small group of people there playing quarters who said around 8pm, "Hey, it's Homecoming, let's get people over here for a party."

                      EDIT: Which is hilariously enough exactly what happened last year for Homecoming. Went over to watch Wisconsin/Nebraska and everyone got the great idea to just start getting people to come over for a party.

                              After being lied to and drug through the mud, trying to find some tires today, without breaking the bank, I finally stumbled across a guy on Craigslist near town and bought a set of 215/40 R18s that were about 50% worn for $75

                              It will get me through Christmas, easily... they are a little smaller in width, but I'll make it work.. especially for that price.
