Man, I hate days like today. This stupid infection is getting worse and I don't get paid until Wednesday. I hope it doesn't get to the point of putting me in the ER before I can get to a doctor. I tried to rest when I got home from work this morning as I had really bad chills and I'm getting achy, but I started coughing really bad and ended up puking the broccoli cheese soup I ate for lunch--all over the bathroom counter, the walls, the floor, the mirror. It was totally disgusting. I even ruined Marcus' toothbrush. I finally got it cleaned up and tried to go back to sleep after my stomach settled and the cough subsided, but then the stupid family next door kept me awake. I guess it was their turn to host the weekly family gathering. Nothing like listening to grown men fighting in spanish right outside my bedroom window to Mexican polkas and screaming children on a trampline. Yay. The party has been going on all day. The neighbors and the other side have been trying all day to get this car working that hasn't ran since they moved here. There was absolutely no place I could go in my own house that was quiet. I'm tired, I'm crabby and I can't concentrate on anything to actually get anything done. *sigh*

I want nothing more than to move away from here. I'm tired of rude neighbors and barking dogs and ferrell cats. This is going to be one long freaking summer since I'm going to be working nights/early mornings at the pizza place, days at my new job and I'm going to need to sleep from about 6pm to 2am. When the neighbors let the kids jump on the trampoline until it gets dark and allow them to scream constantly to boot, my temper is going to be really short from lack of sleep. Fun stuff. Not.

Well, the damned kids have finally quieted down. I'm going to bed and try to get some rest.
