i got f***ing laid off yesterday. why WHY why they couldn't wait until i got BACK, instead of 5 days before i was supposed to leave, is killing me right now.

although people want to help, i just don't see being able to handle this right now. it's money that could, oh, pay my next gas/electric bill... it's been a really shitty financial time for me & my husband, and this trip was gonna be IT for a long time for us.

and damnitalltohell, it's snowing.
