News:

9.5.07 - Evening - You must be so lonely to be so cruel. I'm done on camarades for a while.
9.5.07 - We'd have been fine for a month or so. A couple of weeks to set the apartment up. Now we're so in the hole that buying groceries is down to the penny. I can't beg my dad for money because "I have to grow up," and I don't know if I'll even be able to pay for a few classes later this fall. God, I had no idea I'd ever be here.

I'm really looking forward to being able to get out of this on my own. That feeling of accomplishment. It's just.. why did everything bad have to happen in a matter of days?

The Short of It:
Wednesday - Pack like crazy. Get to bed at four in the morning.
Thursday - 7:30am - Wake up to finish packing.
8:45am - Greet movers.
Noon - Movers leave with van completely full. Cars packed. Boxes still left.
2:00pm - Get an offer from a friend to store some boxes.
4:00pm - Boxes still left. Panic. Exhaustion.
4:45pm - Realize Ebony is missing.
4:50pm - Every room and closet checked triple. Terror.
8:00pm - Call friend.
8:15pm - Friend arrives. Communal breakdown.
8:55pm - Discussion about travel. Who, where, when, and how.
9:15pm - Check first car. Unzip suitcase. Find cat. Hysterical laughter and tears.
Give Midnight first half of travel pill.
9:30pm - Give Midnight other half of travel pill. Leave apartment.
10:00pm - Leave Birmingham.
2:25am - Through Alabama and Tennessee.
Stopped three times to check on Midnight. Cat is listless and cloudy-eyed. Unaware of surroundings.
Three hours from Lexington. Exhaustion. Get hotel in Bowling Green for Max, Midnight, and Jaimrie. Midnight is worse. Boneless.
2:50am - Mom continues to Lexington with Ebony to meet movers at new apartment at eight that morning.
2:51am - Jaimrie asleep.
That's just the first day. I'm too tired to finish up.. And I can't put into words the emotional rollercoaster my mother and I went through.
9.4.07 - We got really bad news about Midnight today. She's been in the hospital since Friday and came home this evening. My baby is in renal failure.
9.3.07 - I can see my kitchen now. I got about five or so boxes cleared out today, but that still leaves the other million.
I'm a giant wad of hundreds in the hole right now. I can say with 100% certainty that I've never been in this position before. While it's a learning experience I'll value down the road.. It sucks monkey butt.
Howeeeever, someone turned me towards a new site, and THIS one has a P-pal donate button pre-installed. I hope it works, but apparently you can't send money to yourself.
It's also password protected, so you'll have to ask me or get to know your neighbor for it. We get to see Midnight tomorrow at the hospital. She still won't eat, but she doesn't often anyway, so I'm not taking that as continual bad news as far as she's concerned. Which reminds me.. I have to fill you in, don't I?
9.2.07 - If anyone knows how to convert Jvscrpt to html, I'd appreciate the help. The code on P-pal is in the former, and camarades only takes the other. Things are undescribedly bad right now, so I've been looking harder at the donate thing P-pal has.
Things have been happening one after the other - and not one of them has yet to turn towards the better. We didn't even get on the road Thursday until ten o'clock or later at night.
I'm just so overwhelmed with everything right now.
On a side note, it's odd how camarades will accept some words in this section and not others.
