the situation at hand
Last night was weird. I helped take care of drunk people, including our hostess who fell into the shower. All in all not a bad little party. I was in a horrible mood, after the last hour of work. One of my moronic coworkers was having a very loud and inappropriate conversation in the middle of the office about how gay people go to hell. I spoke to my supervisor, and he was quite understanding about my distress. Cowboy has promised to take the situation in hand and try to prevent any repeats.
Anyhow, after the party I started talking to Alan about the license problem. I learned that he may have unpaid tickets that will cost a large chunk of money. Right now we don't know, but this will be cleared up on Monday. There is also a large debt to the power company that needs to be taken care of as soon as we can. It's an old thing, which was not entirely under his control. We're not in any danger of losing power or anything like that. I just don't want to have the specter of debt over our heads.
Debt is a personal war with me. I have made it through college, three vehicles and many upheavals without acquiring any debt at all. I take enormous pride in this. So I am understandably anxious about clearing my husbands accounts. It's something we will work out together.
The upshot of this would be that all travel and large purchases have been cancelled for the time being. I can't make plans until I know what needs to be paid, and what our payments plans will look like. At the moment, I think I have enough money in the bank to clear a large portion of this, but I don't want to leave us completely flat broke.
I'm hurt by this, mostly because I had no idea until last night. This is an issue my husband and I must also work out. Understandably I am upset because I feel like I've had something taken away. This trip was a happy goal to work towards, and was meant to help alleviate my recent unhappiness. I just don't know what to say.
I want to thank everyone who has commented and expressed their concerns. I'm okay right now, just a bit depressed. It will get better once more details are set into place. But thank you all, for taking the time to click a comment link and say a few words. It helps, and reminds me that I have many friends both in the waking world and the wired.

It's bad enough she did something so bad as to be kicked out of a state, but out of California? That's where all the hippies and crazy people like Arnold live! :P
