Insert nervous breakdown

So in the latest episode of "Brad's Life Sucks Because," things have gotten worse. Still no word from that job, and he said I'd hear by Friday. I'm going to call him in a bit and politely ask what the word is. If it's no, I'll be upset and pissed off because you should still *call* people and let them know; that's just not right.

The money problems have gotten worse. It cost me $25 to fill up my car a bit ago - it's only a 9 gallon tank. And then, then when I walked to Genevieve's to get my car before that - guess what I find? Another parking ticket. That's #3, the magic number. If I don't pay them now, they boot me. Which is a $250 fine on top of your ticket fines. The reason I got a ticket? THIS MORNING they put up no parking signs for TODAY. No parking 9-3 today, and they didn't put up the signs until this morning. What does this mean? That I have to pay the city $150 by 5:00pm today. Which normally wouldn't be a problem except I literally have no. money. No big, I can put it on my credit card? Sorry, no - it will only let you pay one at a time and then won't let you use your card again. For "security reasons."

What everything basically boils down to is that a)my life sucks; b)I'm really starting to hate being me; and three c)city life really isn't working out for me and something is telling me I'm really just not ready, but oops - too late. So now I'm broke beyond hope, have no job prospects, can't even afford *cigarettes* (and you know that's bad for me), my car's going to be booted tomorrow, and I can't even call up my parents and say "Hey, um...help?".

If anyone needs me for anything, I'll just be over here in the corner banging my head against the wall until eventually I'm too stupid to care about anything.

Can you sell something really fast in order to get ticket money?
A used book store or something? ... That's all I can think of.

I'm sorry things suck so badly right now. : /

Thanks, hon. Things are starting to look up, though *knock on wood*. I am trying to unload my palm pilot, though.

Challance the ticket from today.

*hugs* Life sucks sometimes. I wish I knew how to make it better. I'm still banging my head against walls and things.

It was just my rotten luck - apparently I just didn't *see* the sign. Ah well. *sigh*

Thanks, hon.

Obviously I should read your posts in the right order. OF COURSE you're stressed! I'm an idiot. Take a deep breath. Ok, I know, the problems are still there, but now you'd just gotten some much needed oxygen. Hang in there. Things WILL turn around, because I say so!

Heh. Thanks, hon. *hugs*

Poor Brad.

It makes you feel any better, everything in my house just broke and we have ants.

Think the PTB are mad we keep calling ourselves overlords? LOL

Mebbe that's what it is! We're being punished!
