crushed
Alright, this week I'm losing my current job. That would be OK if the timing didn't suck hosewater! I'd prefer a couple more weeks so that then, I could ride the severance pay all the way through the month of October, but now I think it'll only cover me till just shy of the wedding day. Urk!
As if that's not enough, my car decided last night to flash the little "service engine soon" light. My dad keeps asking if it's an oil leak and I keep saying "no, if it was an oil leak, the OIL light would be flashing!" I called Saturn of Bellevue and they said it's probably a sensor that's old and needs replacing. Well, that's great but it ruins my plans to go to an Emissions center this weekend before my trip to Oregon so I can not be driving my car illegally. Yeah, the tabs on the license plate expired last month when I had absolutely no time to go to Emissions because I'm trying to organize a wedding. woo hoo!
More than that, I'm begging my parents for waaaay too much money because gas prices have effected so much in the cost of living that I just can't keep up with it at all. Rent went up $100 this summer and I could barely afford it as it was. I can't believe I've had to ask for an extra $500 just to squeeze by till payday on Friday. Anyone else stuck in this kind of mess?
I'm just stressed beyond belief at the moment. I'm not greedy or anything, and I'm not a lousy spender! So how am I ending up further in the hole every month?! I just hope and pray that getting married next month will fix this... and that I'll be able to start a new job as soon as the honeymoon is over....
OK, I'm going to go cry in the bathroom at work now. Maybe I'll feel better soon...
