Everything that can go wrong...

...is going wrong.

Man, I hate this.

My sister, whose 60th birthday is today, is having a horrible stomach flu. She is freaking out about everything. She's now reconsidering taking my father with her to New Mexico. She moved her departure forward by three weeks, and has no time to get together his documentation and is worried that they won't let him on the plane with an expired passport for ID.

There are lawyers everywhere, but talking to them is a nightmare.

My work life is a nightmare. I can't concentrate, and I feel like a complete and utter failure.

I have eight loads of laundry to do but I can hardly bring myself to shower and change out of my pajamas.

This is not a good time.
