Errands
I knew I had to fix my printer in order to print those documents. It was already five and most stores would close in an hour or so. So I had to move fast. To make things worse, I believed I didn't have any passport photos left so I checked and couldn't find any. Now I had three errands to run and none of them seemed possible. I decided to make full use of the one hour. I combed my hair and got everything with me and headed out again. I went to the nearest computer store to get a cartridge for the printer. Guess what? They didn't carry the brand I use. I quickly drove to another computer store and I was lucky. So, that should fix my printer. Feeling a bit better, I rushed to the photo shop to take passport photos. And that went pretty well though I didn't look as charming in the photos as I wanted.
Are there any mistakes?
Thanks.

Thanks, MM. What's the meaning of "got everything with me"? I understood it as gather everything together.

It just doesn't sound natural to me. 'Made sure I had everything with me' would work.
