So TMI probably but woke up and my rear end is swollen up about the size of a baseball right on my tailbone.
I am in tears from pain every time I move or sit. It is the most painful thing I have ever felt in my life. So I am going to the doctor and I have a funny feeling they're going to have to send me to the ER. Fun....
And it's also not fun to try to explain to co-workers what is wrong. I don't even care that the doctor is going to have to see my butt. I just want painkillers. Lots of pain killers.

And yup. I was right...
Please give me good 'go away painful abscess' vibes?
If it's not better in 48 hours they want to cut me open and drain it.

It appears as though I'm going car shopping in the near future. Last year when we had the flooding in Colorado, the inside of the van got wet... It shut down and we had it towed to our insurance's recommended mechanic, who told us that in the three days it had been there before they even got a chance to look at it, it has dried out and was fine. The check engine light was on and they told us it was just a maintenance issue... Fat firsts a year and a grand or so trying to fix the problem, I finally let my dad's mechanic friend look at it, and the ECM, some cables, and many other parts are corroded from... You guessed it... Water damage.
Insurance is being cooperative and sent out an inspector to check it out, etc, but I love that van and what we were quoted to fix it is more than its worth. I just know they're going to total it, and without a job, nobody is going to approve me for an auto loan, so I'm going to be stuck buying some piece of garbage off of Craigslist that'll fall apart within a year, because the stupid auto place dropped the ball because they were so busy with all the flood stuff.
I'm so mad right now.

Thanks guys. Man I was in a horrible mood all day. I feel bad because I didn't want to explain what was wrong but on the other hand if people asked how I was I couldn't muster a convincing performance. I swear all I could think about at all was pain.
I think it's feeling better though and less inflamed. The antibiotic is making me super nauseous though. I also am taking a bunch of ibuprofen too so that could be why it feels better.

And now it's getting worse again.
I would vent, but what it is, isn't really the right place. Let's just say it's considerably overwhelming .
Ugh my poor spine. First day back to school, carrying far too many textbooks (selling off old ones), and I can hear my back screaming at me. Back to the chiropractor as soon as I get paid
I'm a pretty easy person to get along with. I'm quiet, polite, not quick to anger, etc. I don't normally take issue with people, but...
... HOLY CRAP MY NEW COWORKER IS DRIVING ME INSANE.
I'm in charge of training her. She has no office experience. She isn't a big fan of work. She has next to no confidence in herself. And she has the world's most annoying habit of asking a question and as I start to answer her she tries to finish my sentence for me. Only... she doesn't know the answer to her question so she's finishing my sentences incorrectly.
At first I tried talking over her (not easy for someone quiet like me) so as not to interrupt my flow. Now I just shut up the moment she interrupts and won't start again until she's finished (incorrectly).
I really didn't think I'd ever be the type to have anything less than a professional and friendly relationship with a coworker. Whelp.
To help me chill, please tell me your stories of annoying coworkers. TIA!
