A String of Unfortunate Events

Oh guys, this has been a rough couple of days. I decided to go out Saturday night and things got extremely messy to the point of embarrassment. I have always had a hard time telling myself when to stop and unfortunately I allowed myself to get to the point of intoxication which resulted in some cuts, a bump on my head, and losing my phone. Worst part is, I woke up with a horrible fever followed by nonstop vomiting and I was unable to make it to the airport for my flight to Valencia.

In all honesty, I think I'm more upset over losing my phone. I mean, I have lots more trips coming up so losing out on Spain was brutal but I know there's more to come. I also probably couldn't have gone anyways because without a phone I had no google maps and no way to take pics which would have really put a damper on things. I'll admit, I spent a large portion of yesterday feeling incredibly down about missing my trip mixed with embarrassment over my actions the previous night. I really need to learn how to take things easy when I go out for my sake and everyone else's too!

I'll now be spending the next 4 days wishing I was in Spain with a phone I pretty much hate but didn't want to spend a lot of money. Ugh, life is crazy isn't it? On the plus side, I start my volunteering job at the DSPCA this Thursday and I can't wait to go and spend some time with the cats. Animals are a big part of my life and I've been missing having an animal around for companionship since my cat died years ago. She was my angel and I had her for 19 years despite the last couple not being so great. She was such a big part of my life but it also makes me realize I'm definitely ready to start being around animals more often. I think it will be even better because I'll be around them to help them which I just know will be a rewarding experience.

Have you guys ever had one of those nights where you wake up the next day disappointed in yourself? They sure do suck but it's important to use it as a learning experience for sure and make sure that this sort of thing doesn't happen again. :)

Happy Monday!
