What a messed up sucky day!
Here's how my day went:
1) I get half way to work this morning to discover - I don't have my pocket book. No pocket book = no credit cards, no ATM's, no license.
2) I approached a work zone on my way to the office and slowed way the hell down (like you're suppose to and like I always do since they've been working here forever!) and as I'm going through it a state trooper steps in front of my car then backs up a couple of feet (so I almost ran over his toes) and starts screaming at me to slow down. How much slower can I go?
3) I get to work and find out that the project we worked on last week was apparently done wrong and the manager is pi$$ed. Well come to find out we didn't do it wrong - he neglected to give us all the directions so we have to do the whole thing over
4) I get to the caff cause I forgot to pack my flippin lunch, but I only have $10 on me (please refer to item #1 as to why
) My car is also out of gas so I need to budget food and gas on $10. (I have a 40 minute commute to work - you do the math). So needless to say half the stuff I can't afford and other half I can't eat cause I"m on WW.
5) I called our computer dudes at work to get macromedia flash installed on my computer because I can't install it myself due to all that admin crap. Well they can't just install it - I need to submit an entire service request for it over the intranet and get approval for it. Wanna know why I wanted it? So I could log my food on the WW website.
A tad embarassing to have to say why I need it.
5) I leave work and get to my car and there's a flippin parking violation sticker on it!
Mind you I parked in a spot that people have been parking in since the day I started working there. It's always full of folks and today it happened to be empty so I took it. There is not a single "do not park" sign around it. The parking spot is between two concrete barriers that flank the parking lot - it's the perfect spot. Hello! If you don't want people to park here - MARK IT!!!
6) The sticker they put on my car (our local company bozo's mind you - not the police) is 8" x 4" and bright orange. Do you think they stuck it some place easy to take off? NO! It's right smack dab in the middle of my drivers window completely stuck on! So after commuting home with it looking like and idiot, I can't get it off. I've tried wetting it, scrapping it, using Goo-Gone - it won't come off! Now it's all shredded and when I open my window all those shreds are going down inside.
7) On the way home, I get my whole $5 in gas and pray I make it home - only to get stuck behind a school bus most of the way.
8) I'm almost out of oil now and can't get any till Thursday when I get paid so I'm freezing.
9) I find out my grandfather is sick (he has severe emphysema and it's extreme high risk when he's sick). But - being as stubborn as he is he want's to go for his bloodwork anyways, but doesn't want to go to the lab that's 5 minutes from the house - he wants to go 35 minutes out to the old hospital he use to go to.
Well he can't drive so he has my father drive him. Mind you now - he is sick and my father is a kidney recipient who catches colds very very easily because he's on immune suppresent drugs.
10) they get to the hospital to have blood drawn and my stubborn grandfather insists he now wants to see the doctor. My father tried to tell him he needs an appointment, so did the receptionist, but he's stubborn and winds up with an appointment at 2:30. This was made at 10:30. So for 4 hours my sick grandfather and my suseptible dad are hanging around together in a hospital waiting room with other sick folks.
11) one last thing. I find out the cat I have been watching for someone is going to be here 2 more weeks. Now I love cats (obviously), but this one has done nothing buy hide for a whole month now and I am very worried about him and anxious to get him back to his mommy so he can relax again.
Sorry that was so long - I had to vent!!!!
Here's to Wednesday being better.
