I admit that I read on the prior page that someone here was hungry. Which made me realize I was hungry. For sweets, lol. Made from scratch brownies are baking in the oven right now and the smell is lovely. I admit I've been depressed and the chocolate will help. I admit that I've had an "interesting" week or two. Tore up my right knee repeatedly by climbing over the passenger side seat and into the drivers' side because my door thingy broke. Right before driving to bo's, my right headlight died. Two parts to buy when I am broke (it's winter; I'm always broke during winter, lol). Anyway, on my way to his house the fuse in my dashboard died and the lights went black. Great. Luckily bo had brought his light headband thingy and we wrapped it around the steering column so that the red light let me see how fast I was going. I got some new fuses and bo got it working again... I admit that it went fine on our hour and a half drive to the BDSM classes (electrical play, temporary piercings, etc., yay!), and on the ride back to bo's house. However, on the way home...half an hour after starting it blew again. Moreso this time, as the dash and the lights where the A/C and tape deck are also went dark. No. Headband. Light. Thingy. penny and I were in my car and I was guessing my mph in the pouring rain on a pitch country road as best as I could...and a cop pulled me over. Said my tail lights were out. AAAAAAH!!!!! So okay, the turn signals worked and the brake lights did too, but still, aaaaargh! I'm also having problems with my new battery running low when I put on head lights, windshield wipers, and warm air on all at the same time. (For some reason, having typed it all out, I am LAUGHING right now. Go figure. Probably because I almost died from shock when I DIDN'T get a ticket.) I admit that I will have to stick to driving in the daytime, on days when it's not raining, until I can get this problem fixed. Maybe a month or two (knocks on wood to avoid three). I couldn't drive today anyway because of the 18 inches of snow...on my steep hill it would be suicidal to try to buy milk before tomorrow. Brownies with no milk and no coffee, blech. I admit that I will try to handle the fuses myself tomorrow. My ex-husband is an auto mechanic, lives in Florida, and told me over the phone something about a fuse checker thingy. I plan to have some place around here check my ...?... alternater(?) by unhooking the battery or somesuch. I admit I've been sad for my friend whose house burned down recently. She had to move eight hours away from Bluefield and the drive is just too far for me to manage. Her mate wants to move them near to his childhood home in Princeton, which is only half an hour away! I'm excited, happy that she will be close by (her old house had been near to where bo lives, and I could see her when I visited him)...and at the same time I know that she won't be happy in Princeton. I feel awful for being happy over something that's going to make her sad, but...YAY! It will be great to have her be a local phone call away from me instead of long distance. I admit that I have been trying to get rid of some of my stuff and have given away clothes (some of my favorites), as well as fabric, kitchen stuff...and books. Well, I meant to get rid of a box and a half of books so I would have more room on my overstuffed book cases...BUT...when I took them to the consignment book store and got credit, some of my favorite books I wanted badly were there and yep, I bought them. (Book credit paid for half, and hey, bo and I even found four Gor books...bo loves sci-fi and fantasy and had to have them.) Bottom line, I came back with an entire box of books and spent/splurged $50, lol. (This was days BEFORE all that stuff started happening with my car.) I admit that I let my life get out of balance lately; felt sucked dry and most things coming out of my mouth were in negatives. I am taking a big mental/emotional step backward from several stressors, people included, because I'm going to be selfish and take time out to put my life back in balance. I need a break from worrying and trying to solve things. Time to kick back and play Pokemon with my kid and relax in front of some cartoon movies and comedies. Talking on the phone with Kelly for an hour last night helped a lot. I admit that I told someone close to me that they need counseling because they are becoming mentally ill. I admit that I told another that I don't believe her new love interest is that into her, etc. There is a fine line between being honest and being a bitch, and I came way to close on that one, and yes, there is a lot in that "etc." part I am leaving out. I admit that the intern I go to (at a family clinic) didn't react well when I told him I am tired of this past year and a third long battle with severe tailbone pain and wanted them to arrange to have it surgically removed. I was told that he didn't think tailbones were ever removed. Ahh, the internet. bo and I found the name of the surgery as well as the details. Guess just went to the top of my New Year's Resolutions list? During my next appointment I will ask for a referral...if I am told NO then I plan to find me another doctor. edited to turn "to" into "too".
