It has honestly been the day from hell. Nothing has gone right, I've just barely resisted the urge to scream. If it could go wrong today it did, and I just wanted to curl up in a ball and cry. But I've decided to look at it from a different angle...it could be worse. I'm not homeless...I'm not jobless and unlike Patrick on Spongebob I do have a nose. (Watching the episode with Austin where Patrick gets a nose and freaks out at all the nasty smells lol.) I'm chillin, listening to country music and mellowing out before I jump back into some homework. I've taken a few things out of the freezer to make for tomorrow night. Ok I know ya'll are like well what the hell happened today. Its just fun to make ya'll wait. I woke up and took Austin to daycare, he was out of diapers, it would be nice if they told me these things ahead of time but they didn't. Well I drove home, figured I'd give the garage a call and find out when my car would be ready today. I call them up and they say they don't have the transmission. I was like what do you mean, you just told me the other day that you had it and were getting ready to put it in my car. They're like well we don't have it. So now I'm like wtf. So I get on the phone with Matlocks the place where I'm getting the tran and they were like well we're not sure where it is, it got delivered somewhere but NO ONE knows where. How the fuck do you misplace a transmission...its not exactly little ya know? So he says he'll call the garage and find out whats going on. Apparently they dropped off a transmission for a different car and the guy who works there thought it was for mine, he didn't even check when I called, just said it was there. So, long story short they still CAN NOT find my transmission. This place I was getting it from isn't exactly sure where it is and no one is saying they have it. So if they don't find it they are going to find a different transmission for me...but they don't have one so they have to try to find one. I'm like WTF!! So I'm like well I can't do anything about that, I take Austin the diapers and then head for work. I've been clocked in maybe 45 minutes and the daycare calls, Austin's thrown up twice someone needs to pick him up. I call Ken because its his day off and he informs me he's got things he needs to do today. By this time I'm asking myself why the hell I've rolled out of bed. I should have just stuck my head under the pillow and stayed there. But no I got up. So I found someone to come in and cover my shift so I could get Austin. Be fucking damned if Ken doesn't just show up to get Austin. But I take Austin by myself to the doctors office, I spend an hour with a screaming, kicking, temper tantrum throwing child who repeatedly hits me in the collar bone with his head, until he finally passes out. Then another hour in the waiting room. I finally get called back and the nurse makes me wake him up so she can weigh him. I should have told that bitch no. Because then I spent another hour in the exam room with him throwing his fits. He hates the doctor. We spent 5 minutes with the doctor...he says he has an ear infection and a sinus infection...well no shit sherlock I could have diagnosed that and gotten out of there 3 hours ago. I make light of it but I was so embarassed while being stared at in the waiting room while he was throwing his fit. I was so close to tears of frustration and anger and just wishing he would stop. I just closed my eyes and blocked out their words. They don't know my situation, they don't know what might be wrong with my child so fuck them. So I ran to get my mom because she needed her car for tomorrow, then came home. I finally breathed easy when I got in the door. I called Matlocks...still no luck on my transmission...ugh another reason that brings tears to my eyes. What the hell ya know. Why can't anything just work out for me? And inside I'm craving a hug and someone to hold me and tell me it'll be ok, but that just makes me look weak and stupid. I'm almost afraid to face tomorrow.
