I posted this last night on my Myspace
The day started off with my husband calling me to tell me that someone had lost the keys at their work. The keys to their main building. Which meant that if someone found them, they would also have access to the magazines and thousands of explosives. Not a good thing. Well, the Gunny decided that NONE of them were leaving until those keys were found. He said he would keep them there until it was too dark to look.
I had to work. My boss was in a shitty ass mood. It was one of those days where I couldn't do anything right. Or, she wanted things done HER way instead of mine. I was almost to the point of telling her that if she didnt like the way I was doing things, to do it her own god damn self.
I got off work at 2:30. We were slow as fuck. It was like a ghost town today. So naturally I was bored as well as pissed. Fortunately, Jim got off at his usual time.
We checked our bank account. The balance was $674 dollars and our 600 dollar rent check hadn't been cashed yet. So needless to say, we have 74 dollars to our name. I checked my check book and added up all the checks I had sent out last week for bills. We have $339 worth of bills. I was terrified that the checks were going to bounce.
I had a fifty dollar check from Jim's mom for my Birthday and a fifty dollar check from work for a few days of work before Grams died. So I knew we atleast had 100 dollars. The bitch is that work closes for two weeks starting this Friday. So we're fucked. And Jim doesn't get paid again until the 15th. Once again, fucked.
So I knew that I needed to call Mom. I did and told her the situation. I told her she didnt have to send the whole 339 but to help with as much as she could and I would pay her back on the 15th. She proceeded to give me the lecture and chew my ass. I told her she didn't need to do that because I already knew that I had fucked up. Still, she carried on. So I told her to forget it and I hung up on her. So she left me this message telling me that I chose this. I wanted to be married. She said she wondered how we were going to pay for the plates on the car and the car payment and all that shit next month. Well, next month isnt an issue. Right NOW is an issue. She said that I just treat her HORRIBLE and that she had already given me money. She gave me $100 to help with my contacts that were costing me $257. Well, then the Firebird died on us and so did Grandma. So we had to spend $300 plus dollars to buy plane tickets to get home. Plus, we paid to make my family dinner one night and we spent money on buying cookies ( a LOT of cookies) for Grams showing. I only took $100 from Mom after that just so that we could afford to buy the gas to get home. And then of course, my birthday was yesterday and Jim spent a little money to buy me a ring. So we're a little backed up as far as money goes.
It isn't all my fault. Things just added up. It happens. And still, she chewed my ass. So I told her just to forget it, that we had it figured out. Our LandLord is going to hold our check until the 15th. Thank God for that man. I called my Dad and bitched to him and he said that he was really sorry that he couldnt help. He didn't have any money. That was ok. I didn't call him for that. I just called to bitch. He said everything would be fine. That Jim and I were just starting out and that we were learning. Jim even called his Mom to tell her the situation and she didnt say a fucking word. She just told us to call our Landlord and if he couldnt help us, that she would. Dad said that Mom will help someone when she FEELS like helping someone, not when someone NEEDS help. He also told me that she's still getting child support for me!! SEVEN fucking months later. I mean, if she's still getting that money, she ought to be sending it to me. I mean, what the fuck?!?!?! I also realized after talking with Dad that Grams only owed $3000 on the car that we bought from Mom for $7000. Its fucked up that my own family would charge me $4000 extra bucks for something that wasnt even theirs.
Everything is fine now but I'm just so pissed off. Mom thinks I treat her so horribly. I would do anything for her. My chest is so tight I can hardly breathe and I'm still shaking. I'm just ready for this day to end....
