An Alternative Christmas

The alternator on my car went yesterday- 320 dollars later I have a working car.
My mom insisted on putting the bill on her credit card. It's my Christmas present. I feel terrible. For one thing, I hate having her to bail me out like that- secondly, there is no way she could or would spend 320 dollars on me for Christmas. I want to give her some money for the car- but I have none.
At least my car gave out after I finished exams - a small blessing.

ahhh. finished exams.
it's a good feeling, no?
only it takes a week or so to kick in.
that awful feeling of dread, deep down in your soul, that something is due, and soon!
I've actually had nightmares about missing due dates!
I'll come in to class, and everybody is handing in an essay which I wasn't even aware was assigned!!
I wake up in a cold sweat, thank the good Lord it was only a dream, then race downstairs to check my daytimer. ugh. the joys of academia will prematurely age me.
