 A Day I'm Glad to See End
This has been a day from hell for me. It was one
of those days where I wish I would have stayed in
bed. I feel like I've been through a war and have
the wounds to prove it.
It all started when I was taking a friend to
work. Well, I never actually got to take him
anywhere. My van had breathed its' final breath.
It refused to start. It may be something as
simple as the starter but I will not put any more
money into it. Soon, it will be heading to the
junkyard. Then suddenly it all hit me at once. I
have orientation this Wednesday 30 miles from here
and classes begin next week. With no money in my
pocket and my grant money not coming until next
week I was in some deep trouble. I held my
composure while I called my mom and told her my
idea of beating the thing to death with a
sledgehammer which she promptly talked me out of.
After hanging up the phone I went back out to my
van to clean it out. As I was walking beside the
van my leg decided to give out and I ended up on
my knee on the asphalt. At first I just picked
myself up and went to get the box of stuff and
take it to my apartment. That's when I noticed
the blood covering my knee and shin. I ignored it
until I got into my apartment where I could
further investigate just how bad it was. The skin
was gone and my shin was already the size of a
baseball and bruising. I got some ice, wrapped it
with an Ace bandage, sat down on the couch and
finally gave in to the frustration. All I could
do was sit and cry and become even more frustrated
when my computer and internet decided it was time
to give me even more problems. Then, as if a
final kick in the ass, I couldn't find the cord to
my printer.
Salvation, however, was just around the corner. I
found out that the money for the new car will be
on its' way this week. Good news for me but I
came out of this battle with one hell of a messed
up knee, a twisted back and I know I am going to
pay for it all in the morning. And I still have
laundry to do.
