Crappy Birthday to Me.....

Today was my birthday.. It was SO CRAPPY it's not even funny!! It started out when I had to get up at 3:30 am to go back to work after a week long shutdown... That alone sucked!! Then, I went to put water in my cooler thingy that I take to work with me, and there was only 3 bottles of water... I usually take 4 in the cooler, plus one in my coozie... So that had me irritated.. Then, I started my truck.. It barely wanted to run at first, but once it started warming up, it seemed fine.. So, I got in and started driving to work.. When I stopped at the end of my road to turn onto 117, my check gauges light came on, so I checked my gauges, and I had no thermostat and my check engine light was on.. So, I decided it would be best to turn the truck around and take it home, grab the car, and go to work.. So, I try to start moving by slowly pressing on the accelerator so I didn't spin my tires... Nothing.. So I had to almost FLOOR my gas petal just to move so I could take my truck home... So I'm ticked, borderline irate by this point... THEN, after I got in the car and took off down the road, not even a mile from home, I came like 3 inches from hitting a 12 point buck!!! AAAHHH!!!!!!! I almost turned around to go home at that point, and the only thing I could think was "what next?"... If one more thing would have gone wrong, I probably would have lost it and had a neurotic breakdown... Luckily, everything went okay at work, and when I got off work, Jason called me and told me he was in town, and that our Economic Stimulus Check came in the mail today.. So, on my way to meet Jason at the bank, my mom called, and that helped cheer me up a little... Jason was so sweet.. He said that he had to buy me SOMETHING for my birthday, and he decided that he was going to get me my windshield sticker that I want... So, we went to the sign shop by Vicario's, and we ordered my sticker, and his stickers too.. Then he said he was going to treat me to dinner, and we had Tubby's Pizza (*YUMMY!!!!!!!!*)... Then after we got done eating, I had to get everything out of my truck, so it can go into the shop tomorrow... YAY!!! There's a chance (I don't care how small it is, it's still a chance) that I could possibly have my truck back by FRIDAY!!!!! I hope so!!! I am going to completely detail her this weekend!!! And put my sticker on, because The sign shop said that our stickers should be ready by Wednesday!!! So, after getting off work, it turned out to be a little bit better day... BUUUUT-- I'm gonna go for now so I can get some sleep.. I had about 3 hours of sleep last night, and I want more than that tonight!!!
