I'm right there with you Gillette. Last year is when it all started. Everything was great had gotten my license and all. Pretty much my dream car. The one I always wanted to get. It was a Mitsubishi Eclipse. I love these cars. I plan on getting another. But here goes.
It all started off great. I was still in school though. I got my license late. (Laws here are you get your permit, than a year later can get your license. You can get your permit at 15 and license at 16. But I never went and took Drivers Ed until late) I finally got my license. I was driving a Honda Accord. The car wasn't too bad. But I wanted to get an Eclipse. I ended up finding someone who had one, they would take my car and a bit of money. So we did this. Got the car here and all. Didn't get the titles switched yet because I still owe a bit of money to the guy. I still drove. Then I found out the car was stolen! I got the car in South Carolina. I live in North carolina. Two people knock on my door and are like..Where did you get that car? And I explained to them. They said the guy screwed them over and never gave the car back. Anyways. We got that all straightened out. The owners gave me the car anyways. But the papers couldn't be taken care of until I got in touch with the guy I got it from. I still drove of couse..No other transportation. Well...Then I missed some days at school for a personal reason...Stupid reason actually..But they were going to take my license away! I had my license for around...6 months im thinking? I don't know. I filled out a paper called "Drivers license eligibility Hardship" Because I have NO other means of transporation. I live with my grandmother she doesn't drive or have a car. Anyways, since i'm running on. I'll get to the point. I never got a paper back saying it was denied or accepted. I drove everywhere. I was fighting with my girlfriend. I needed to go over to her house. It was raining like hell and I hit this curve..It was a bad curve..Worse than I thought. I lost control and smacked RIGHT into a tree. Totalled the car. I had insurance on the car but no proof with me. I got charged with Driving while license revoked, no insurance, no registration card, and a designated lane violation (Left of center). Then found out the car couldn't be fixed. Went back to school the next semester, they screwed me over and I had to quit again and I can't graduate for another year or two!. So I got my GED. Still no car. Every time I get something lined up to get one something goes wrong. I lost my job. Everything. Things are finally going to look up! In march I'll have a good job and it will be easy for me to get my license and everything back. I have been getting continuances in court forever! On march 6 I have to go back for the last time. I'm excited that things are going to go better now. I know you are in a worse situation Gillette. I can't really explain everything that's going wrong right now..Long story..But good luck. I hope things get better for you.

This post will be comprised mainly of my bitching....

you have been warned.

Ok its uncanny, how just when you think you've really gotten positive about life, when you think, hey things are going good the shit starts hitting the fan.

I don't even know where to begin....its been a combination of big and even really little things going completely wrong. 

1.I went to Bom's because I was in such a great mood last week, I wanted to cheer her up, I think I only caused more problems.

2. Huge fight with boyfriend, renegotiations took place.

3. I got screwed ay work all week and got called in on my day off, only to be further screwed.  Screwed = unfair treatment, long hours and little money.

4. Creepy phone call.

5. Car breaks down friday at 5:30, mechanic is closed, car won't reverse, have a million things to do and no car.

6. Miss important work meeting due to no car.

7. Try to drive car to mechanics, won't change gears, have to call for a tow. Must replace tranny, just had it replaced last thanksgiving.....warrenty is expired (20000km or 3 months) muct pay ANOTHER $2200.....more then the current selling price of my car, I'd sell it if I wasn't still paying for it.

8. Fight with family over who can get me to the mechanics to pick up the "loner" car. Get to loner car, only to drive away and have the side mirror fall off, I open the window to try to reattach the mirror, window gets stuck, in snow storm, must go back to the mechanic.

9. Late for school because of all this and miss a test, now I'll have to petition for a rewrite.

10. Big ass snow storm, loner car does not do snow well, and its going to snow all week



Soooo yeah, sorry for my bitching, I just had to get it out,  since I declared this as a drama free year, I guess I just have to go with it, shit happens....I guess....I just want a coffee and a hug.
