Why
I just...I know this is ridiculous, that's there's no meaning behind this, but I just want to know why this keeps happening.
Ten months ago our furnace died and our car suddenly developed an $800 problem. Now this. I've been living without any goddamned luxuries for years, and I'm used to it (and by luxuries I mean things like coffee, CDs, DVDs, and books). Hell, I don't even CARE any more - I no longer remember what it was like to be able to buy a DVD on impulse, or actually at all without using a gift card that someone gave me. But that means I have nothing left to give up - every remaining thing I've got (like this LiveJournal account), all of that together would only add up to less than $150.
Per year.
Total.
We were five months away from paying off the goddamned car and finally, maybe, getting some breathing room. This just killed any hope of that. I can't tell you how tired I am of this shit hammering us, over and over and over and over.
And now I'm fucking whining about it here. There's no point.
