she's got a bottle of tequila and a bottle of gin
there's just nothing that says it better than a counting crows quote...
so first of all, who has thankgiving without mashed potatoes? i mean honestly.... it's gonna be awhile before i get over this one. my favorite meal of the year and my favorite dish was missing. super.
second of all, just when you think you've got your finances under control... i found out my parents health insurance plan won't cover me as a graduate student anymore. so i have to purchase a student health plan. it's really very reasonable and whatnot, but it's still a large chunk of cash i wasn't planning to spend.
AND i shut my computer down wednesday night and i won't go back on. i was on the phone with dell support for an hour today. i took apart my laptop and put it back together. i hooked up an external monitor to try it. still nothing. i get a power light, a fan, and a black screen. what the....
so they think it's the video card and i have to call monday and find out the cost and mail it in to be fixed. meanwhile, i have an 18 page research paper due on thursday that i was about a third of the way done with and i now have to start over. shoot me in the head.
so i won't be online for a few weeks. and email and blogging will be few and far between. so call me if ya need me. or just want to cheer me up. i'm going shopping. then maybe for a drink. ugh.

Oh no KTB...all of those bad things at once? i'm sorry. weird thing is, we didn't have mashed potatoes either. and it was strange not to lump them onto my plate. what is going on in the world? health insurance too--big bummer. i've decided that growing up can be crummy sometimes. but then there's all that good stuff that comes along with it...i love ya, and i'm praying your paper will write itself. maybe we can connect in the next day or two while i'm still in town, but if not, *HUG* *HUG* *HUG* from my end of things. talk to you soon! ~molly

If i play a little music i could fit right in...
SOunds like you need a glass of wine or maybe a bottle. Sorry i missed you and the poetry gang. I felt so bad that i missed it. Too much happening at once. But i think the drunk poets need to taste the unofficial wine sponsor of the drunk poets. (maybe we can get a beer and liquor sponser as well!)
