The Summer of Suck continues

sereneThe suckage doesn't stop. Guy's mom is in the hospital with heart troubles, and I don't get to go to San Diego until Wednesday or maybe Thursday.
Got to the same rental place I always use; whipped out the same card I always use; rejected (there's $4K in that account). Two other cards: rejected. Their explanation is that they ran an equifax report and I failed it. They didn't do that last time, and my credit's not THAT bad, but clearly it wasn't good enough, so there I was, stranded and crying in North Berkeley. Came home and looked for other options, but every place is closing any minute now, and no place has cars available for one-way rental tomorrow. If I wait until Monday, I may as well wait until Wednesday, after my surgery. Disappointed, but it'll give me time to rest and recover, so I'm trying not to make too big a deal of it.
I probably shouldn't fly on Wednesday, though (tooth extraction is part of the joy that is my dental surgery that morning, and don't they tell you not to fly after?), so I should probably get on looking for a train or bus or something down.
I'm really really glad I have off work for a while. I need to recuperate, in more ways than one.
