Saturday, January 6

Let me just give you a little run down of what has been going on the past couple of weeks...
From my most recent post, I obviously got married. The wedding was beautiful and everyone in my family managed to get a stomach virus. I kept having to throw up while I was getting my hair done...nice :) So here is the rest of the story....

I went back to work on the 26th and I got sick that night and had to call in the next day. I went to the Dr. and got complete lab work done and have an MRI scheduled this next week. Just what I needed...miss more work. (I should probably mention that we were threatened with our lives by the boss if we missed work the last week of the year)

...Friday came along and Michael and I were to leave for our honeymoon right after I got off of work at 5:00. He had my car for the day so he could get it ready for the trip...he came to pick me up for lunch and when I met him outside, my car wouldn't start....
...I went upstairs to my office to see if I could take a longer lunch to figure this out and I ended up crying to my boss and she let me just leave (once again....missing work on the last week of the year)
...got my car towed to the shop.
...had to go to Enterprise and rent a car just to get to Galveston to leave on our Cruise the next day (a HUGH unexpected expense)
...get on the cruise and something goes wrong with the water supply on board and we leave 8 hours later than expected from the Port of Galveston.
...arrive to Cozumel at 4:00 PM and we were supposed to leave on a shore excursion at 9 that morning...cancelled....
...we go to Senor Frogs for dinner and my credit card wouldn't process the international purchase so Michael has to go all the way back to the cruise ship while I wait in the restaurant to get money to pay for our dinner....(great times in Mexico)
...Did I mention it has been raining ever since we left Galveston and haven't been able to even wear a swimming suit??
...Get to Progreso, Yucatan and decided to take a shore excursion to the Chichen Itza Mayan Ruins....2 hour bus ride there...step of the bus...it starts pouring (I mean POURING)...complete the entire tour soaking wet....2 hour bus ride back to the boat.
...miss our 5:45 dinner time and miss the Lobster. VERY disappointing.
...get back to Galveston and wait with our luggage for 3 hours while we get through customs.
...this has been a GREAT trip so far.
...Also I had to visit the infirmary on board the ship for reasons I would rather not disclose on a public blog :)
...get to my sister Misti's house, play with the kids, Michael checks his tuition for the Spring and it says he owes $1700 by the 5th (Today) or he will be dropped from his classes (this was suppose to be only $25) SURPRISE!
...wake up at 8 to call Tech and get things figured out.
...decided to drive back to Lubbock today instead of Saturday to get the rental car back earlier.
...pick up my car from the shop..he banged on the gas tank and it started. $65.
...went to my sister's house to see the poopie pants (Charlie).
...Almost home and get in a wreck.
...Morons stopped in the middle of the road because they were lost and didn't know where to go...so they decided to pull onto our street out of side and stop in the middle of the road so me (an innocent driver) can hit them and mess the crap out of my car. We exchange information but the morons decide to leave (because they were cold) before the cops get there...
...the cops don't file a claim. (after waiting for them for an hour..it is below freezing outside)
...I file a claim with my insurance and my car is going in the shop tomorrow.
...have to come up with $500 to pay the deductible.

No really...let me tell you how I REALLY feel.

OH...I forgot to mention the Sunday the 7th is my birthday. So Happy 25th Birthday to me!

Oh friend. That is ridiculous! So sorry that all happened, but in a few years it will be a funny story of how you started out on life together! So, I sent your birthday card, and I'm not positive that I sent it to the right address- so I might send another one. Oh well, Happy Birthday anyway!! Love you!
