We're now 12 days into the New Year. I have been steadily working on my resolution, which is to stop chewing on my fingers. So far I'm doing really well with that.
The rest of my life... has SUCKED so far. It's the kind of suck where you're sure that things can only improve from here, and then Fate is like "NINJI-CHOP!!" to your shins and the next thing you know, you're on the ground writhing in pain.
Our car is about as crappy as a car gets. It barely starts, it doesn't like to change gears when it's cold (and sometimes when it's warm, too), the front bumper is ripped, the whole front end is bent out of shape, both axles broke (AT THE SAME TIME!! don't even ASK me how THAT happens), and today, the coup de grais... I went out to the car to see if I could find a printed copy of my schedule for this week, and the car door was frozen shut. I tugged on the handle and it BROKE OFF. So now I have to either pry it open with my fingertips or do that so-very-white-trash move of getting in the passenger side and crawling over to the driver side.
I don't want to be white trash. :( I want to be Middle America, making $40-60k, driving a car less than 5 years old, and owning all the latest technology.
Not gonna happen on the path I'm currently on.
