Today was terrible. On my way to school this morning, my car's electronics were flickering on and off, engine was cutting out, and brakes weren't working (stiff wouldn't go all the way to the floor). Oh I was on my way to a test too, so I was freaking out thinking I gotta make it, I can't miss this test!! I was so nervous and anxious about just making it to the test that I had to change shirts when I got back to Clint's place. Nappy.
Positive note: I think I did pretty good on my test. The essay threw me off and I missed maybe 3 questions.
Then right after my test I went to go pick up Clint from the car shop. The starter on his truck went out so he had to get it fixed. I was tense, grouchy and tired. Clint told me that I needed to chill and I didn't take it too well at that moment. I apologized and said it was just going to take some time to wind down my nerves. I mean for crying outloud - I struggled to make it to class in a car that wasn't stopping and barely was able to go. Took him back to his place, barely had time to get my German homework done. Was running late to get back to school due to elderly/out-of-state drivers and in general people who couldn't drive. I sprinted to class. My nerves were frazzled still from my car and my test so I had some difficulty paying attention in class.
I was so exhausted after class that I had trouble thinking clearly. I was able to drive coherently just couldn't think about what else to do today and what I wanted to eat. Called Clint to see if he wanted anything and he didn't know so I went to the closest place to his work with a drive-thru, Chick-fil-a. As I pulled into their driveway to go thru the drive-thru, this big university truck almost backs into me. The driver proceeded to call me a bunch of names that makes me want to cry again when I think about it and drove off cussing me out EVEN THOUGH I had the right a way and I stopped in time so he wouldn't hit me. I pulled into a parking spot and cried. Tried composing my nerves so i could just get Clint some food and I can go home and get away from people when my car started overheating. I wasn't able to compose myself from the earlier idiot so I just lost it. Ordered food, took it to Clint and just waited for him to come and get it. What's wrong he asks? I start to sob and tell him all the names that guy called me for avoiding his big truck. He told me to go home and get a nap and to take one of his muscle relaxers if I wanted to.
So that is my day. I cried for Idk how long til I finally fell asleep. When I woke up I forced myself to eat my sandwich and a piece of my Pop-pop's birthday cake. Cake's not worth it if you're forcing yourself to eat it. Not enjoyable at all. I woke up still whimpering and emotional but for the most part in control of my emotions. And now I had a wicked headache and a car that's still trying to break down on me.
Today finally did get better. Clint was sweet and hugged me all I wanted him to. We went grocery-shopping and bought more oil for my car. Walmart finally stocked my BigSexyHair hairspray!!! Got some eggnog and Halloween candy. Now I have a glass of fruit juice, my puppy and my boyfriend AND NO HOMEWORK. Today did get better, yet it was still up there on terrible days. All I have to say Tuesday YOU will be kind and nice to be and it will be a GLORIOUS day for we are going to carve our pumpkins!! :-) :-) Oh yeah I need to check my bank account - scary. I think I'll save it for Tuesday.
Sorry you had such a rough Monday. Monday's suck. I know it can be hard, but ignore the moron who cursed at you. Also, my civic did something similar to what you described last year, it was in the shop for 2 weeks and no one could figure out what was wrong. Have a marvelous rest of the week, love, and be above the crappiness life throws at you. Love you, girl!
