Mad at myself

I am so mad at myself. I am mad because I need to refill one of my prescriptions and my mother keeps giving me a check to bring to the pharmacy and I keep losing the check. This has happened twice now.

Having a pajama day

Today I am having a pajama day. That means I am not getting out of my pajamas all day. I feel like I deserve it because Friday I drove my friend Nikki and her now husband up to New Hampshire so they could elope. I was the sole witness other than them and the justice of the peace. Yesterday I did a lot of running around for my mom. I feel I deserve a day of rest.

Insurance companies are driving me crazy!

In trying to deal with the whole car situation, I contacted my insurance company and I contacted the other party's insurance company. Both companies wanted to appraise my car. So I've been driving all over getting my car appraised.

Car Accident

Just my luck, I was driving along and some lady backs into me. I got a guestimate of the damage from the auto body shop, and the car's got about $3500 worth of damage and I'm going to be carless for 2 weeks. Because I'm under 25, I can't rent a car. Lucky me.

Introducing me and my life

Hi. I'm Rachel. I'm a 22 year old Jewish girl who is single, unemployed, and living with my parents in suburban Massachusetts. I've got a non-verbal learning disability, which is basically the same thing as Asperger's except I talked earlier. According to my mother, I was speaking full sentences at 21 months.

I'm currently sitting in a Honda dealership waiting for my car to finish being serviced. That's right, I forgot to tell you, I am the owner of a 2006 Honda Civic, which basically my parents are paying for, although I did provide the down payment out of savings bonds. See, my grandparents gave me a car for my 18th birthday, but when I was in college (no, I am not a college graduate, I was there less than 3 semesters) I totaled it.

I am currently working on moving out of my parents' house. I'm thinking of moving into a group home. One of my therapists (I have 3 therapists) thinks its a good idea and talked me into it. I don't know much about group homes yet, but I'm looking into them. Hopefully by this time next year I will have moved out.
