I think I may have just recognized a manic episode for the first time. Everything felt like it needed to be cleaned, and I couldn't find my keys which were right in front of me. Fortunately at the peak of my insanity, Austin called and said that I didn't need to come in until 4:00. I can now go back to bed, and wake up at my leisure to finish the things that need to be done today.
My life isn't that bad right now. I'm just making it through and then getting some new-relationship perks on the side right now. I am, however worried about EVERYONE else. My mom has to have surgery and some kind of tumor or complex cyst on her ovary and has no insurance. This should set my immediate family back about 15-20 thousand dollars. Brett still doesn't know how he is going to be able to pay for classes this semester, even after having dropped two classes. Greg's parents are on his ass about money, and keep complaining about us. He's 23.... it's ridiculous. There is also a very good chance that he may be bipolar as well. Apparently, it is something he has suspected for a while, and he has an appointment today to find out.
So I hope that I will be able to help where I am needed and still finish all of the things that I need to do. I am torn between working at the studio and getting a job at Steak and Shake. SnS pays a bunch and will work with my schedule when i go to school full-time next year, but Penney's pays decently and has a health insurance plan. If I had a plan on how to balance the two it would make things simpler.
