Someone smashed the driver's side window on our 85 VW last night. Luckily enough, our regular mechanic had a salvaged window in stock, they don't make them anymore. Nothing was missing, but that was $100 that we hadn't budgeted to spend.
Kaia upended a cup of coffee onto David's computer this morning (immediately unplugged and left to dry, we're going to let it be for a few days before assessing the damage).
Terrapin (David's new cat) was in heat (6 months old! Still has baby teeth!) so she cost extra to spay.
This is on top of feelings of inadequacy and failure, seven second and third degree burns up my right arm, a really bad cut on my left thumb, and just a general low level anxiety and melancholy that has had me on the edge of tears for a few days now. I've been gloomy enough that even going out to see friends in the Bay Area this weekend didn't really cheer me up. I'm going to go curl up under a blanket and hide now.
ETA: No, now I'm going to go into the kitchen and drop the chef's knife in such a way that I wind up stabbing myself in the leg. It's only bleeding a little.
