h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Fair warning- I am in a foul mood today, so this is not going to be a bright and cheery journal entry. If you don't want to deal with it, now's the time to unsub.

I don't understand my calculus, the kids I'm tutoring in Earth Science don't know the difference between Crouse and Carroll Hall (and get mad at me when I don't show up at the wrong place), I need to dig out my fluid flow equations for our calculus project, and I have a poster I need to print tomorrow that I've just finished all the graphs for, but haven't interpreted any of them yet.

My grades are dropping, my rent is rising, and my car is in danger of getting towed because the office hasn't processed my renewal application for a parking permit yet. I got sort-of dumped by my sort-of boyfriend. Saturday is my Mom's birthday (and her teacher's union is likely going to go on strike) and I don't have anything for her yet but I probably won't be able to go home for it anyway because I have to go out sampling because I couldn't today, /if/ I find someone to help me!

On top of that, my uncle passed away suddenly this week- in a matter of hours he went from fine to dead of kidney failure. I can't even go home to go to the funeral tonight.

Is there one aspect of my life that can hold off on having a crisis this week?

We all love you

Traveller in Time offering a shoulder

Thanks guys... I've had a rough week...

ok! mate you know where i am!

If you need a rant you know where my email address is, a rant does wonders for you

*Nods and hugs*

You know where we all are

Thank you- I know I can always come here, no matter how bad of a week I've been having. Don't know exactly what it was that set me off this afternoon, but thanks for listening to my rant!

s to all!

Traveller in Time holding a balance
"Many things have happened to you this quik, hopefully not too much.

Did you hear the radio show ? "

aww babe, you can email me if'n you want to rant

you've got my email too if you need someone to talk to.

sorry to hear your weeks going badly. mine has too, but it sounds like nothing compared to yours.

No, I didn't hear the show- too much work I had to do, and too slow of a connection to really connect. Is it going to be rebroadcast, or should I look for it on tape?

Thanks again guys- I think I've gotten a fair bit out of my system, but this doesn't mean you won't be hearing from me...

no problem scnadrea. anytime

I was on the radio today as well, part of a competition on a local station

You can guarantee that h2g2 is one part of your life that won't go horribly wrong. I hope everything else gets better.

David

bless
youve got my email too if you want to chat
just remember when things get really bad, they cant possible get worse, only better, look on the bright side of life, every cloud has a silver lining and all that!

OK- a little update- good, bad, and ugly

Good:
Poster- finished for presenatation tomorrow
GIS Exam- taken and looking promising
Calculus Homework- turned in
Bad:
Great Uncle- had the funeral which I didn't make, but called and sent my condolences
Mom- called and wished her a happy birthday, couldn't send a card, so I will pick something up nice for her instead.
Parents- angry at them because they're insinuating I'm lazy, which I don't believe is the case.
Friends- all insane. All. Insane.
Ugly:
My apartment- once again representative of the second law of thermodynamics
My day in the field on Saturday- that's a journal entry by itself, if I ever get around to writing it
Laundry- let's just not go there...

Awww
