Yesterday I woke up with a very sore throat & the beginnings of a cough. I also had an eye issue that I've had before (November to be exact). First it looks like there's something obstructing my vision. Then, it spread to my other eye and the entire far right field of my vision was distorted. It did not make for easy driving. So, I left Patty a message that I was going to come in late - as soon as I was able to drive.

Around 12 I left for work (My eye problem cleared up shortly after I called her, but I wanted to make sure it wouldn't come back since my right eye still felt "gunky"). I got to work & sat down & just couldn't do it. The beginnings of the cold were kicking my butt, so I went home - 1 hour drive each way for nothing.

I took some NyQuil around 6:30 and fell asleep on the couch at 7:30. I woke up for 5 minutes or so - just in time to see who got fired on the Apprentice which I DVR'd. *sigh*

Tom woke me up at 12 when he came home & I went upstairs and fell back asleep. I decided this morning that I was going to go to work, but I was moving pretty slow. I weighed myself & I lost 2 lbs yesterday - Yay! Me. Anyway, at 9:05 I go outside to leave for work remembering I need gas. My car won't go out of Park. This has happened before & if I left it run for a few minutes to warm up, and push on the break petal really hard it will move. Nope, not this time. I sat in that damn car for 55 minutes trying to get it out of park! With sore hands and pissed off attitude I had to call Patty & tell her why I wasn't there yet. I feel like such a loser! As soon as Tom leaves for work, I'm going to take him and drop him off so I can go to work. I hope this isn't expensive to fix, but if I can't get it out of park, I'm going to have to have someone freaking tow it! I guess that's what happens with a 6 year old car with about 123k miles on it, but damn it!
