stonepicnicking_okapi1. I believe the kids say FML at this moment. Yesterday we got about 7 inches of snow (which is a lot for our area). Yesterday the boys' father and the boys dug the cars out. This morning, the boys' father helped me clear even more. Okay. I left 45 minutes early and it was okay until jazz man's neighborhood. It hadn't been plowed! But STUPID OKAPI decided to drive forward and get stuck.
I panicked and ran to his house. Jazz man's daughter and son-in-law and I worked for AN HOUR trying to back my car out of that neighborhood. We went got to the main road, a plow driver stopped and he actually got in my car and maneuvered it onto the main road. The boys' father came, too, but by that time, we were close to the main road So, I didn't do my shift.
I called the office, no help. I called AAA, no help. I really thought I was stuck there.
When I saw it hadn't been plowed I should have turned and left the car on the main road or called the office or done anything but what I did, which was charge ahead. I have no experience driving in snow, and don't really know what to do when the tires are spinning.
I was driving to my Indian lady when the office called and they had cancelled that appointment when I first called them because I was stuck. So, that shift didn't happen either. So I turned the car around and went home.
NO MONIES!
I feel like such a loser. Nobody (jazz man or family) called the office to say the neighborhood hadn't been plowed. And I was in the new car, which I thought would be better. It probably was, but still. Regardless, I should have been smarter. I haven't felt this bad about myself in a while and I am seriously regretting throwing away my cutting stuff (but I'm not going out to get new stuff because, well, snow).
2. NO MONIES! I got another air force guy shift cancelled on Friday because he went in the hospital this weekend.
3. And I need monies because I got BTS tickets for me andbethctg for when BTS comes to Baltimore in August. That was such a harrowing ordeal. Plan A on the laptop failed so I tried Hail Mary backup Plan B on my phone and boom, boom, boom, had tickets in a few minutes (I don't understand ticket nonsense). It might have been irresponsible given my Okapi Invasion holiday plans for the UK but BTS is coming right here, no hotel, no transport, it seemed crazy not to try. I hear the queue in Munich was 1 million+ ARMY. And this was just pre-sale for people with ARMY membership.
3. So today's fiasco, snowstorm, no monies, getting BTS tickets, maintenance still hasn't fixed our lights so we eat dinner and the boys shower in the dark, I am trying to catch up with snowflake, I don't know, aaarrrghhh!
