No More

I am really, really, really sick and tired of Bucking Up and Being Strong and Acting Like A Goddamned Grownup and being told to just cope with shit.

In the past week I've had to deal with my creepy stalker ex-boyfriend from goddamn high school contacting me again, injuring my neck again so I'm on exercise restriction AGAIN, and finding out that someone stole my identity and about $1000 from my checking account/debit card. While I don't have any work, or enough money to make ends meet as it is.

And right now I'm supposed to square my shoulders and take a deep breath and go to the bank and go pick up a friend who needs a ride and clean the house and bake cookies for tonight's gaming group and be a smiley hostess and figure out alternate means of paying for everything until I get reimbursed and get my new card activated and do this all while I'm on heavy-duty muscle relaxants and coping without my primary stress-relief outlet, but I DON'T WANT TO.

I just want to curl up in a corner and cry. I want to quit this game. I want to have someone pick me up and carry me home and tell me I don't have to play anymore.

But that's not an option. So up I get and out I go. When do I get to stop running on this damn hamster wheel?

Oh, suck. :( I'm sorry all this crud is raining down on you. I hope this (metaphorical) psychic weather system passes swiftly.

injuring my neck again so I'm on exercise restriction AGAIN .... heavy-duty muscle relaxants ....

...that sounds like acro this evening is out, then. :\

*many many hugs*

If you need some folding cash to tide you over for day-to-day stuff (or just the day-to-day stuff itself) until the bank situation gets sorted out1, I'm happy to help out.

1 = I'm assuming/hoping federal anti-fraud regulations apply, although I realize limited liability doesn't help with the immediate "no cash in the account" problem.

Thank you for the offer - thankfully, the issue isn't 'no-money-at-all,' it's just 'no-access-to-what-I-have.' There's money in the account, and (thanks to [livejournal.com profile] umbran) cash in my wallet; the conundrum is with the few venues that only take credit/debit and won't work with cash or checks. Hopefully, though, my new card will be here soon.

On the other hand, no acro for me for the next few weeks - aside from my neck/shoulder, I've started a new tango class on Wednesday nights. Once that's over, though, I'd love to come back...
