Raining

First, thanks to everyone who posted a comment on my last post. You are all truly wonderful people and keep reminding me that there are good people in the world.

So this week, things aren’t just raining down on me. They’re pouring. And I’m not talking about water from the sky.

First, my laptop has decided to be a pain in the ass. After I reformatted the hard drive a couple of weeks ago, it started running pretty great again, but now it is constantly shutting itself down. After doing some research online, I have a few things to check on to see if it’s going to be salvageable. I certainly don’t have the money for a new computer right now.

Second, my car desperately needs new tires (we’re talking squealing at every turn) and probably needs new brakes, as well. I hope to get the tires taken care of this weekend…somehow.

Third, I’ve been having a lot of sinus pressure/pain lately, and as of last night, my left ear now feels all clogged. So that means a doctor’s appointment in the morning. Until then, I guess I’ll just have to be an off-balance throbbing mess at work tonight. I tried to get in today, but they were all booked and my regular doctor is out of the office tomorrow. Luckily, they were able to get me in to see another doctor in his practice, though.

I also hope to talk to him about the issues I’m having with the medication I’m on (not the least of which is the never-ending hunger), so we’ll see what he has to say. I need a refill anyway. I’m actually hoping that I’ll end up liking this guy better than my regular doctor. If so, I may make the switch to him. Wish me luck. I’ll let you know how it goes.
