my life: the bad and the ugly

Today has been...interesting.

It started off okay. I went for a run (I'm training for a 5K and working up to a triathlon, though I was temporarily derailed by injury). I got a fairly good haircut at Paul Mitchell The School.

Then things went downhill. The desk I've spent the past two weeks, countless hours, and a great deal of emotional energy on was ruined in the rain, then sort of repaired by my mom and stepdad, turned out to be interdit (not allowed, the French word is just way better) in my new apartment. As Clad would say: Suck. After finding out this not-so-happy news, I then accidentally stepped on my precious notebook. I heard a telltale crack, and found a mark in the screen as though I'd shot it with an invisible bullet that hadn't broken the plastic, but rather the actual LCD of the computer.

After calling around, it will only cost $100 to fix. However, this whole machine cost me $300. So $100=crap. Suck. Negative emotions.

Keep in mind, this is after finding out that BYU plans on keeping all my scholarship money and grants until at least the 27th, even though my first and last month's rent, utility bill, and parking permit (a total of $730) is due on the 25th (in two days). Also I have to fix my computer. And school starts the 30th.

And oh, wait, I have Celiac disease. Good bye bread, cookies, cake, and basically all food always.

I have not actually cried, but I definitely want to. I feel like my life is a facsimile of a sham, and I haven't got a thing funny to say about it.

I will come back and be positive later. Right now, life just sucks.

Love,
Lizzy.
