I’m still sick, with the same thing. So’s Mario. We went to the doctor in Camargo, Mexico (same one we went to when I had that 4-week stomach virus) and the shit he prescribed for us sucked. The medicine he gave us for the fever and inflammation made my throat burn and the antibiotic was so huge I couldn’t pass it down. Didn’t help that my throat felt like it was the size of a straw. I’ve had a fever since last week. It only goes away when I’m on something, like Advil or Tylenol. Since last week! I’m so afraid my liver’s going to crumble apart for taking so much Tylenol. Who knows what Advil does. I just feel so shitty. I hate not having health insurance, I really do. Insurance at Mary’s is super expensive for us and supposedly all the other places are too. I can’t stand this. I hate feeling like crap. I had to come home from school early yesterday; thank God it was a study/make-up day. Today was our final for Help Desk Support. I think I did okay. Nothing was staying though, I couldn’t concentrate.

I’ll be going on a Hiatus (*gasp*, but it’s not a big surprise…it’s like I kind of am anyway) till I feel better or finish school, which ever comes first–which right now, feels like the latter.

It’s the 3rd day of the new year and already I’m so pissed I’m almost hyperventilating.

I checked the mail today since I didn’t have to drop Ricci off and got a letter from the Auto Finance place. Turns out our $250 payment is late again, yet we gave Mary the money when it was due (it’s under her name). It also says something about the Current Payoff being $3,292.65–what does current payoff mean? Is that what we’ve “paid off” or is it what’s due? I REALLY hope it’s what we owe, because we’ve been paying $250 a month on this piece of crap since March 19, 2001. We should have already paid–including the down payment–at least $13,500 on a 98 Nissan Sentra. We’re supposed to finish paying it off March 19, 2007 and I’m estimating that we still owe $3,500. I’m just hoping the $3,292.65 is what we still owe, not what we’ve paid.

I thought we were supposed to finish this year, but I was wrong–it’s next year. The thing is, we keep getting these darn “late payment” letters when we give the payment when we’re supposed to, or when we’re told the payment’s already been made. I even found a letter stating that they were ready to repossess because of non-payment! We stay broke just so that we can make all our bills on time, dammit. I don’t know what’s going on.

I really want to finish paying this car off. We really need to get a new car as the darn Prelude’s still having problems and Mario needs a car for work. They’re hoping to get John’s car up and running before Noelia starts school (Mario’s currently using her car), but that’s proving to be a problem as well. Why do Honda’s have to be such pains??

Anyway, I really needed to vent but I still don’t feel any better . We need to change banks too, so I can’t get an online account up and running for the car payment either. I really want, no NEED, to know what’s going on!
