2010 and the Christmas Break from hell.
So everything was great before Christmas break. Then a bunch of crappy stuff happened over break.
First, after I hung out with Ilyssa and had a great time, I got a ticket. Her stupid bitch neighbor parked too close and blocked me in. So I barely bumped her SUV trying to wiggle out. And she flips out and calls the cops. So he gives me a ticket for "improper backing" and told me he didnt have a choice because she called the police. Even her freaking boyfriend was apologizing to me for her overreacting. She should have gotten a ticket for improper parking! dang that was bull. But luckily my mom's friend Randy has a really good lawyer friend Steve who is taking care of my ticket for me. So I won't get points and I don't have to go to court.
Then when the cop gave me my stuff back my license somehow got stuck in the ridges of the part under my seat that slides it backward and forward. So I am freaking out thinking he didn't give it back to me and searching for it and really upset. Cameron ended up finding it a day and a half later, I think it was because he has to slide the seat back and it fell out of the ridges.
Then I got sick the day after Christmas. Which is when we go out to Grammies and celebrate Christmas with my moms side of the family. I was puking and having diarrhea and laying in the back room by myself most of the time. It sucked. and the hour and a half ride home while feeling what horrible wasn't good either.
Then I was at Jeremys house and one night while driving home my car dies. I'm driving it and after about 2 houses it just shuts off. Power, engine, everything. Locks up. While I am moving. So Jeremy finally gets my hood open and messes with my battery and gets me going so I drive home. Then it's dead in the driveway the next morning. So it finally starts again later and I drove it up to a place. It ended up only being a bad positive pole connection on my battery and only cost me $20. So that was good but it was scary as hell for my car to shut off while I was driving. If I had been going faster, I would have been screwed.
So then right at the beginning of New Years Eve Day, at 12:30am when it just switched over, I get into an accident. With a guy down my street. He was pulling over, so I completed my turn in the driveway and he apparently couldn't stop and slid right into my back end. Bent my frame in, bent in the top of my wheel, my suspension was shot. It was pretty much not drivable. We didn't make the police report until that saturday, Jan 2. and I end up getting the ticket for "failure to yeild." Which is bullshit. I did yeild and look before turning. It is not my fault the asshole slid into me and spun me onto my neighbors yard. and his big ass truck was fine.
So I got zero help from the insurance because my car is old and had no collision on it. So it was $1075 out of my pocket to get it drivable again. Which is about half of all the money to my name. and now I have to buy books. Lovely. And I still have to make a court date to fight this ticket.
and I had to miss 2 riding lessons at home and the 2 day horse show the last weekend due to being sick and my messed up car.
But besides all that crap I had a really good time hanging out with Jeremy, Ilyssa, Julie, Kira & Vanessa. and seeing Emily and AJ. and my family & dogs of course. and going to my church and getting to ride at First Impressions 2 times. Which actually means JUMPING in my lessons. lol
I got to see a bunch of local bands that used to be around when I was in high school play a reunion show thing. and I went ice skating. and to the science museum. and saw Avatar, which is a freaking amazing movie. So there was good but a lot of bad expensive crap too.
I do not want to be in Adrian, I am not ready for all these classes again. But we'll see how it goes. I hope all of your breaks were better than mine.
