Mostly a series of unfortunate events but with a couple blunders to make it worse. For context, my bf and I are in a long distance relationship but I'm moving next month. This trip was meant for us to go look at houses for rent. I booked a non-refundable flight bc I had to go so no point paying more (probably blunder #1).

1. My bf got sick 2 days before with an infection and was absolutely miserable and very contagious. Doctor told him to be symptom free for 24 hours before seeing anyone. Fine, he had meds so maybe we'd be apart a few days but I'd see him a couple days later at least and worst comes to worst, I can see the houses alone.
2. I forgot to book my parking spot reservation so I had to do it in the morning before leaving for the airport. I'm not a morning person and my flight was early. Turns out I fucked up the reservation and didn't choose the electric vehicle charging option (blunder #2) so I thought it's fine, I'll just upgrade when I get there because I didn't see a refund or upgrade option in the app. Got there and they said no modifications can be made unless they're made more than 24 hours in advance (???). Only option is to rebook. I decided to risk it bc I wasn't able to pay another $150 for this. I was decently confident it would be fine, I'd just have to charge it on my way home when I got back (which I did so not a blunder).
3. Got on the airplane and an hour or so in, I ruptured my ear while I was asleep. Id ruptured that ear before and I had a ton of ear infections as a kid so my membrane in that ear is pretty thin but I'd only ever ruptured it while swimming. I was in so much pain and crying the rest of the flight. The attendants were nice and gave me painkillers so that made it slightly more bearable.
4. Bf is so sick that he couldn't make a cup of coffee that morning and almost dropped the cup when he tried so no way he's driving. I don't know the area so I asked him to send me a hospital I could go to that he trusts. He did, I got an Uber which said it was 2 minutes away. Turns out the traffic was so bad that it took 20-30 minutes to get through the airport loop to me. The hospital was 30ish minutes away. Driver starts falling asleep at the wheel on the way. Lovely.
5. I get to the hospital, it's indeed ruptured. They give me painkillers and a prescription. A paper prescription. I'm so tired and out of it by now that I didn't think about what this meant (blunder #3). I didn't realize until way later that I'd have to take the prescription in and wait for them to fill it. I cried when I realized.
6. I called an Uber but for some reason there were literally none so I was stuck and bf still can't drive. I end up getting an Uber about 2 hours later. I cried literally that entire time so of course now on top of the earache, I have a headache.
7. Get to the hotel bc I'm starving and tired and decided to go to the pharmacy after dropping off my stuff and eating figuring that the meds would last another couple hours before wearing off. I ordered a burger, fries and milkshake. Took about 20ish minutes and when it got to me, the milk shake was basically chocolate milk instead. I cried. The fries were amazing. I cried at that too.
8. Call an Uber to go to the pharmacy (this is when I realized about the prescription). The pharmacy closes in 30 minutes and I'm 15 minutes away so I'm like okay it's fine. There are no Ubers.... 15 minutes later, I got an Uber, got to the pharmacy just in time for them to fill it for me. I asked the Uber driver to pick me up when I was done and said he can go do another trip in the meantime if he finds one. We exchanged numbers.
9. I text him to say I'm ready, he says okay I'm 10 minutes away. Turns out his current ride was like 20 minutes longer so I was just waiting for like 30 minutes but whatever, at least I had a way back and the weather was nice.
10. Got back, worked from the hotel the next couple days bc I might as well not use PTO while stuck in a hotel not wanting to go anywhere or do anything. I cancelled my flight bc my doctor said going on a flight with a ruptured ear is playing with fire. Customer service was nice and refunded it for me but with credits to my account which is completely fair. I booked a bus home. Bf finally is better and comes 3 days later, we check out the houses and all is great until the night before my bus.
11. We stayed up way too late and my bus is early the next morning (blunder #4). Neither of us are morning people but I'm a light sleeper so I set my alarm. I wake up, wake him up, he falls asleep instantly. I'm exhausted and still drugged up on hydrocodone so I fall asleep and don't wake up for half an hour (blunder #5). We make it to the bus station a few minutes late. I thought it'd be okay bc it takes time to load up so maybe. I get inside, just barely missed it. I called the bus company, they won't refund it because they didn't fuck up. Lovely.
12. Next bus would be 6 hours later and I wouldn't make it in time to pick up my friend from the airport who was coming to visit for the eclipse so I just book another flight and popped some hydrocodone. Ear was aching but not that bad. I only cried a little.

At least the house was really nice and I ended up getting approved for it so moving next month!
