The last 24 hours broke me:
3 hour ER trip due to the first asthma attack of my entire life, brought on by exercising in the cold;
Slushy snow all the way to Dover;
Out of practice drinking with buddies and woke up with wretched hangover that's still with me;
Parking ban in effect from October to April in Dover, which would explain why it wasn't on the news or radio when I listened for one and would also explain why my car was gone this morning;
$100 impound towing fee--cash--and a $15 ticket for breaking the ban;
While looking for snowboarding boots at parents' house, got a chunk of broken glass wedged in my foot;
Drive back to Portland was in four inches of snow and reduced speed limit on the Turnpike, and had to pull over five times total to clear the salt/sand/snow gunk off my wiper blades.
I think that about covers the waterfront. Although, being bundled in my jammies, cuddling with my nephew in his sling, the promise of KFC being delivered for dinner, and the possibility of my first snowboarding lesson indicates that the next 24 hours are looking way up.
