Just a spoon full of sugar

It certainly has been an interesting week.

My car broke down last Monday while I was on my way to see
my boyfriend. I had so many better things planned than
waiting around for AAA to tow my car to Mooresville and
having my mom take me back to college. Life doesn't
always go the way you want it to and you just have to
accept the fact that shit happens.

I found out over the weekend that it's going to cost
around $900 to fix it. That's more or about the same as
the car is worth book value. Conveniently that's about
exactly how much I have in the bank right now. It's
always the unexpected expenses that kill.

I've needed a new car for quite a while. The last few
times it's majorly broken down I've had to put more money
than the car was worth into it. The problem is that my
parents can't help me out financially and I wouldn't make
enough over the summer to really buy me a decent car.
We've all decided to have my car fixed and just deal with
it.

I've come down with a cold over the weekend. I'm not to
the point where I feel like I'm dying, but my nose is
giving me all kinds of problems and I'm not motivated to
do any studying at all. How convenient seeing as how I
have an exam coming up Wednesday and this week I'm going
to have to do more work than normal for my classes.

I'm due up for a cold though. I didn't get sick during
the fall/winter and the flu never got around to me so I
think I'm pretty due up for getting sick.

My boyfriend's parents went away for the day over the
weekend. I had to get out of the house for a while and I
couldn't wait for him to call so I just up and left. I
went by his place, but it looked like his parents were
there so I didn't just walk right in. I rang the door
bell a couple of times and no one answered. I ended up
playing with the dog for a bit then leaving figuring if no
one had answered it by then...

He eventually called and I went over there faster than the
speed of light. We spent most of the day in bed nursing
me back to health. I slept. He's the one.

I was looking at every inch of him not missing a single
detail. He's so completely beautiful on the inside and
outside. I love ever single inch of him. ...Makes me
want to blather just talking about it.

I saw Brad the bartender today. I was expecting the
worst...thought he was dead. Apparently he's just been
busy with a job and a relationship. Yay!!
