Bike walking with kidpurple

I called Dan yesterday to see if he wanted to go rollerblading... It was one of those rare 76 degree, no wind days in Fargo so I figured I better take advantage of it. He called me back and suggested we go biking instead and I agreed. I went down to the garage to get my bike... This was my first bike outing since last summer so the tires were flat. I own a Gary Fischer bike and you have to have a special adapter to fill the tires but luckily I bought one last year. I went back up to my apartment to get it and I couldn't find it in the Hell-Pit I call a closet. I really need to find that Scheels bag because it has my new bike seat, a water bottle attachment for my bike, a water bottle and the little tiny adapter to fill my tires. I tried to get a hold of Dan to tell him about my situation but he didn't have his phone with him... So I took off on foot, with my bike, to the gas station where we were meeting in hopes that he had an adapter. He said, "I don't have no fancy-schmancy Gary Fisher like you" in Dan speak that means, I don't have an adapter you crazy bitch, so we walked my bike back to my apartment and took off for Scheels to get ANOTHER adatpter. I picked up two they were only $1 each but before I purchased them I made sure to ask the bike shop dude if it would work with my particular bike. The dude said I was good to go! Whew! Finally we were going to go on a bike ride! I walked my bike (Dan slowly rode his) back to the gas station where we attempted to fill my tires. I tried to fill them, Dan tried to fill them and NOTHING. No air was getting in. Two other people came up to fill their tires and the pump didn't work for them either so we all went across the street to use a different air pump. The other people filled first and it worked like a charm. I attempted to fill my tires again and nothing... I handed it over to Dan and he didn't get any air either. We flipped my adapter around tried all the angles and got nothing but flat tires. I think we might have even broken the pump nozzle on the last try. OOps! Dan and I walked my bike back to my apartment and we parted ways for the evening. Hopefully Scribner will let me use his adapter like I did last year and I will actually get to ride my bike this summer.
