I don't think I make a very good adult...

You ever have a day or days when nothing seems to work out or crappy things continue to happen... that has pretty much been my monday and the only conclusion i can make is that i don't make a very good adult.... It all started when i decided to be a responsible adult and get my alignment checked on my car... This is important in boston cause during the winter from the snow and ice GIANT potholes are EVERYWHERE. so as i am driving to the tire place i freaking hit a pothole and knew something was wrong... 3 lights came on on the dashboard... it felt like i had no power steering and my car just seemed weird. So i get to the tire store and the verdict was that i would need 1. serpentine belt, 2. AC belt, 3. alternator belt plus all the BOGUS labor charges. a few hundred dollars later and i was on my way.... needless to say when you are in college with no job, and no job in sight for another hmmm 5-6 months... this is about the worst way ever to start a monday... the irony my car's alignment was fine.. that was the cherry on top... On top of that i still am trying to figure out the whole health insurance/hospital bills from a visit to the hospital back in SEPT!!! Can i just say i hate bills... they are no fun and i have decided that insurance bills and car bills are what makes a person an adult... which is why i now know i am a horrible adult :)
The good news of the post is that after a year and a half of endless school work and studying i am finally done with my work in the classroom and tomorrow i start my second clinical rotation at New England Baptist Hospital which i am really excited about because it is the official hospital of the Boston Celtics... lets hope tomorrow's first day goes A LOT better then today... and keep the fingers crossed that one day i will be better at being an adult....

Jo, you are so funny! I'm sorry about your car, but at least you're trying to be responsible :) Hope all is well! (you're almost a physical therapist, right?)

That sucks, I am so with you. Nothing gets me and my hubby more mad then those two things. I avoid doctors at all cost for that reason. Wait until you are prego and go to the doctor once a month then every two weeks and then once a week then you pop the thing out figure out those bills just to start with the well checkups every 2 months or so for the first year.
