Sorry, this is me just venting because I have a lot of built up stress and crap going on in not only my life, but my best friend's life too. For me right now my biggest problem seems to be my car. I've had so much crap done to it in the past 3 years, it's ridiculous. I'm driving back from the mall today at about 7:15 and it's been raining all day. Well, while I'm driving back my right front wheel starts to squeal. It basically squeals all the way home which is about a 10 minute drive. I have no idea what's wrong with it had I have to drive it to work and some other places tomorrow and this weekend. I called my dad and it may be the wheel bearings (which I just got replaced a couple years ago) or it could be the brakes. I have no clue, but I can't get it looked at until Monday so I hope to God I get in it tomorrow and it's not doing it anymore.
The main stress in my life right now though is my best friend and the problems she's having. I know most would say that it's not my life so I shouldn't worry about her problems, but she's my best friend and we're super close and I love her to death. She just graduated college (and did a lot for our college at that and graduated with like a 3.7 GPA) and she's working two jobs at the mall. She's pretty much flat broke and it took her about 2 weeks after graduation to get a job. She got the jobs, but they cut some of her hours already this week. She needs the money and what doesn't help is that she's been having problems with her car. Basically she hasn't driven the thing in like two months. She finally got the fuel injectors fixed (which was thought to be the problem) the other day and now there's more problems with it. She's already spent $200 this week on it and will problem have to spend another $200 to $300 to get this other problem fixed. It's just so stressful because she works so hard and doesn't deserve this. It's kind of like, why do bad things happen to good people? The kicker of this problem is that I have a soccer game tomorrow away so I will be leaving town at 1PM. Our other roommates are call ins at their job from 2 to 6, but will be leaving right after that because they have to go home (45 minutes away) for a grad party. She works tomorrow from 6PM to 11PM. So basically she's screwed because no one can take her to work and no one can pick her up (I'm probably getting home past midnight). I just feel so helpless because I want to be able to help her so bad. She's probably going to end up going to the mall like 4 hours early so she can get there, but who knows about getting home. I hate not being able to do anything to help her! It kills me!
Sorry for the long rant, I just needed to get this crap out of my system. I don't know if any of you believe in God or pray or anything, but if you could seriously pray for the two of us that would be great. Mostly for me and my car problems and for her and her job and car problems. I appreciate it if you spent the time to read this and I really appreciate it if you pray for us. Thanks. :)
