I don't wanna
Feb. 15th, 2012 07:27 amReally, really don't wanna go to work today. Went to bed too late, cat woke me up at 3:15am, feeling bleh - not sick, just floppy. I want to stay home with NO OBLIGATIONS, children safely at school, Husband busy at work, and just nap and maybe finish the werewolf story and clean the bathrooms or something. Alone.
I was also expecting to have to deal with a furniture pickup today, which was going to cause me to have to leave the office, which I was also not wanting to deal with. Just. Stay. Home. But, even though I was TOLD they were going to come between 8am and 5pm (AND they were going to call an hour in advance to my CELL PHONE), they came at 7am (AND they did not call in advance AND they were planning to call my office). So, that is done, anyway. I was in the shower as the truck came into the neighborhood. I could actually HEAR the truck engine in the shower. I was like, WTF, where is there a truck that I can hear IN THE SHOWER? Is there a helicopter landing on the roof or something?! We do sometimes get military helicopters flying very low over the neighborhood - rarely, but it does occassionally happen. It is scary loud, you would definitely hear that in the shower, but they also fly over really, really fast. These would have had to be circling the target to be here that along. Anyway, the thing is gone, so at least I won't have to leave work and go back.
But I can't really skip work. I have stuff I need to get done, and I will probably be off on Monday for President's Day, and I was off half the day yesterday because of AG33's orthodontist appointment. So I need to go to the office like a good, responsible worker bee. I am feeling very sorry for myself.
Wah. :(
On the upside, I mentioned my netbook to Husband last night and it did not meet with anything more than practical budgeting opposition, so I have hopefully planted the seeds of that idea in his head. He's an excellent shopper - I expect I will end up with a stellar product. Eventually. :)
Now. Back to wah.
