BAH!

i'm sick and i got a speeding ticket yesterday that will cost me $147. i was on 66 at 7am going 72 in a 55 mph zone. but i wasn't the ONLY one going that fast! i know i know, i was still speeding. but seriously, getting my FIRST ever speeding ticket after having my license for 12 years, 5 days before i move out of the state!!! can i please rack up more unnecesary expenses before christmas?

not to mention the fact that my laptop died last week! and oh yeah, i'm MOVING and my job situation is a little rickety considering i will only be freelancing, instead of having a steady income.

and now, after i finally got all my packing and shipping done, I GET SICK!

i still have to take care of some last minute errands before my car gets shipped, tie up all my projects at work and have a packed social calendar trying to say good bye to everyone!

BUT I FEEL LIKE SHIZ! achy, fevery, and my throat is on fire! i'm just waiting for the minute clinic to open since it's sunday and i don't want to have to go to urgent care for something like this. but i can't afford to be sick these last few days and i sure as heck don't want to be sick on an airplane that has to travel the length of the country.

this is when being single S.U.C.K.S! damnit i swear i can take care of a lot of stuff by myself, but when i get sick and feel like crap, but still have stuff to do, it makes me wish i had an s.o. to help me out and take care of me. or at least a cabana boy. making your own chicken soup when you're sick is the WORST thing about being single.

so that's the whiniest thanksgiving post ever, huh? honestly, i had a fabulous thanksgiving with some really great friends and the best organic homemade meal ever. and my move hasn't really been as stressful as i've whined about (up until now when my body just wants to hide under the covers after i cut out my throat).

i am most thankful for my family waiting for me back in california and the attention and love (and copious amounts of food) they will shower on me upon my return. nothing cures germs and stress better than that!

MPA, I totally empathize. I think MOVING is the worst thing to do when you're single. And on top of it, you're sick! Oy, oy, oy! Feel better, and I hope your move goes swimmingly.
