Damn

You know how trouble comes in threes? I got my third last night. As I was driving home I got pulled for 'running a red light'. Honestly, I can see how he'd think that, however it's a very borderline decision. Anyway, the cop (who looked like he should still be in high school) told me that he should give me a light ticket which costs $450 and takes 4 points...It took a lot of will power not to freak btw. Then he said that since I was cooperative he would knock it down to 'careless operation', which only costs $250 and no points. Still...GRR!! I've heard that if I call the court clerk and pay ahead of time I can get the fee reduced by half. I hope so because I can't afford much atm. Plus I can't take time of because I only have 3 hours left in my vaca pool at work. >_<

Since I wasn't planning on taking off a whole week I drained my available time off. I have to work through every lunch from now till D*C in order to have the two days off I need for the con. The 3 hours I have left I'll need for this Friday when I go to NJ. Thankfully our work week runs from Wed-Tues, so I'll juuuuust be able to earn the last 5 hours I need to meet my 40.

Honestly, if I didn't have people counting on me at D*C I would probably be canceling, but I won't do that. My mother raised me better. Besides, so long as I have enough for gas and food I'll be good.

So in conclusion, I'm broke, still achy, freaking out, and tired. How about you?

Creepy thought

I just realized that all I've had to eat today is a 150 cal. Nutrisystem lunch bucket and a bottle of Crystal Light. I'm not hungry. In fact I don't even feel funny. O_O Very unlike me...

Suckage

I won't be going to Dragoncon this year.

I'm so sad I could cry, but honestly, I was sort of expecting this to happen. Between money shortages and lack of available time off...well, things happen.

dependonyou, I'll mail you the Pegasus globe when you're able to get it.
keita_yuki, so much for holding the Ravenclaw banner. *sniffle* I'll have to get you the statue some other way. It's too fragile to mail.
bandvamp01, I will miss your cookies!! *whine*

I will really miss seeing all of you. Heck, half of my LJ is made of D*C'ers. I'm so completely bummed right now.

I have one reg to sell if anyone wants it. $50 and you handle the transfer fee. I figured I'd post about it here first.
