I Think the Universe Hates Me June 29, 2005
Before I start posting away about more crap, I just wanted to thank you guys. I honestly don’t know how I would make it through this shit without you.
*****************************************
I really don’t know what I’ve done to piss off the universe. It must have been something big. I just can’t seem to win these days.
Tuesday my husband and I noticed that one of our cats, Salvador, was limping and holding his paw up when he sat or stood. We gave him a major once over and discovered that one of his claws had actually grown into his little paw pad. It kills me when one of my kitties is sick or hurt. I took him to the vet yesterday morning and got him all taken care of. He’s feeling better now, thankfully.
The thing that’s really pissing me off right now is having to deal with the management of our apartment complex. They are currently trying to screw us over on our lease arrangements, and it’s looking like we may have to pay an extra $750. I’ve turned the situation over to my husband, because I ended up balling on the phone yesterday when I tried to get anywhere with the stupid people on site. My husband talked to the manager yesterday afternoon and is supposed to hear back from her today. I highly doubt we’ll win this one, though. Fuckers.
I’m just way too emotional to be dealing with this shit right now. My hormones are going fucking insane, and it’s not pretty. Can’t things just go smoothly for a little bit? Please?
I guess there is one piece of good news to report. I get to take my last birth control pill tonight. That’s always a good thing. It will hardly make up for the wrath of the Lupron side effects, but I’ll take what I can get.
One day I hope to be able to post a cheery, happy post. I’m tired of being hit right and left with shit, and I’m tired of how it makes me feel. I’m hoping that the Universe will cut me a break at some point in the near future.

Ugh, I agree, you DO NOT need this on top of everything else. I really wish it were possible to remove all worries and stree not pertaining to IVF during this process. We have enough to worry about.
No matter what, we’ll be here to catch you :-) You DESERVE a break, and you DESERVE to be happy. I wish you the very very best.
Hormones are just evil in general…you’ll get through it - so long as you don’t melt from the heat and/or kill someone in a Lupron induced haze. That last one was a real chance for me while I was on Lupron.
Hi sweetie–right there with you on the weepy, animal-problem, BCP + Lupron express. Shall we meet for hot fudge sundaes?
I hope going off the BCPs helps!
I’m glad Salvador’s problem was taken care of. He’s a cutie.
Glad it’s your last bcp tonight, I hope the lupron side effects start to subside soon.
That so sucks about your apartment stuff. What the hell are the charging you $750 for?
I’m glad Salvador is ok! How many cats do you have? We have 2 who I really love. I hate whenever one of them has something wrong…which fortunately hasn’t been often.
Good move letting your DH deal with the lease issue. The last thing you need right now is additional stress.
I’m hoping you have some catastrophe free days ahead of you. Enough is enough, right?!
Staci
You certainly deserve a break from the BS… or at least a drink and a massage. Hoping things get better asap.
Sorry the Universe is handing you crap sandwiches right now. I’ve called in a special order for you…watch for chocolate chip cookies to be delivered soon.
I know, I know! I am pissing myself off with my whinging but cannot seem to get out of the ditch. Hope we feel better soon.
Can’t your husband throw his attorney weight around? People always get scared when you mention you’re a lawyer. Well, not when “I” mention I’m a lawyer, seeing as how I’m not a lawyer. You know what I mean.
Sorry you’re so frustrated, it’s that nasty evil Lupron. Knowing that doesn’t help though.
I’m so glad your kitty is on the mend.
Sorry about the horrible hormones and the apartment complex. You don’t need this now. Hope things get better with the cessation of BCPs.
Hang in there, Amanda. I ‘m so sorry to hear about all of this. You have been dealing with so much s— for months, it seems. Sending you hugs. P.S. I’m glad your cat is better. I love my cat–sometimes I think she’s the only one who understands what IVF is all about.
Salvador is GORGEOUS! Bring on the gonads baby! I’m hoping for good news for you soon.
I am so sorry you are being hit with all of this shit Amanda.
I am wishing you nothing but joy and blessings.
PJ- It’s kind of complicated, but when we were trying to figure out how to structure our lease so that we could move out in mid August instead of at the end of the month, they told us that we could have our regular lease end on 7/31 and then do a month-to-month lease for August. That way we could just give 30 days notice and leave the exact day we wanted to in August. Now they’re say that since we’re still under our old lease and the month-to-month lease hasn’t started yet that we had to give 60 days notice, so they’re charging us for most of August even though we won’t be here. The kicker is that when I turned in our move out notice on Monday, they wrote our the prorated amount of $331.33 and initialed it on my move out notice. Even though we have it in writing, they’re still being bitches about it and wanting us to pay over $1100.
Lisa- My husband has been throwing the attorney weight around a bit. It’s helped some but not enough.
I think this nail thing must be going around. My cat, Sadie, just went through the same thing. I had to photograph her paw, but hers was not otherwise problematic.

Oooh, your kitty is sooo cutesy! I have six kitties and I just know they have weekly meetings to decide who needs the vet treatment next. god bless em.
good luck with the apartment a-holes. Since you have it in writing what the move-out costs are, I think you will be okay. They’re just trying to screw you. Realistically, I doubt they’d come after you legally for $750 despite any noises they may make. Bastards.
