"Cuppa tea, cuppa tea, almost got shagged, cuppa tea."

I know I wanted some excitement lately, but this isn't what I had in mind.

It all started yesterday. I come into work to discover my job description changed. Instead of scanning, I am now sorting through all of the OB/GYN documents and alphabetizing them. Then I discovered, as well as the two shelves of envelopes, I now have an additional two filing cabinet drawers full of documents yet to go through.

Someone shoot me now, plz.

Then, when I was coming back from lunch, I went to put my lunch bag in my car like I always do when I discovered the keyless entry didn't work. That meant I had to unlock the door manually. The only problem with that was, it set off the panic alarm… that I couldn't shut off due to the fact I can only do it with my keyless entry… which wasn't working. Follow me so far? This one girl who was in her car told me to try to start the car to get it to turn off. I though to myself, "It's anti-theft. It's not gonna start." Which it didn't.

Luckily by the time I was ready to go home, it started up fine. I just can't use the keyless entry until I get the battery replaced.

Then, when I got home, I got a jury summons in the mail. "Shit," I thought to myself. "This is the last thing I need." I found out I have to report the same day we plan on leaving for a friend of ours' wedding. How is it this is my third jury summons since I turned 18, and mom hasn't gotten one once!! I'm going to try to find a way to legally get out of it. I think I'll play up the illness angle.


Wednesday evening was fun, though. A friend of ours was in town and we haven't seen her in several months, so we met up and had a ball of course. Even though I wanted to finish loading up my iTunes, I wasn't gonna miss this for the world.

We're supposed to be going to an Easter musical tonight, but mom and I flaked out. I kinda feel bad, but the both of us wanna relax for the rest of the night…

And I finished up the New Frontier Mirror-verse story Cutting Ties. I liked it. It was a different take on things and the character dynamics were different, but it still felt kinda the same.

Well, have a blessed and happy Easter to those who celebrate!!

Then, when I was coming back from lunch, I went to put my lunch bag in my cat like I always do

Heeee. Car? :D

*facepalm*

Yeah, I caught that... and subsequently fixed it.

I did spell check it, but since "cat" is an actual word...

Happy Easter.........

Yeah, I keep getting those Jury summonses too. Sigh. Since I teach, I switched mine til the summer. I'm taking my laptop and writing. Or reading.

The first two I got I wasn't called in, but then I was a full time student. I can't claim that this time. I just hope I can get out of it. I really don't want to miss this wedding. Besides, my company doesn't compensate for Jury Duty. Cheapskates.

Ooh I really need to buy that. How long a story is it? 1/3 of the book?

[identity profile] snapdragon76.livejournal.com 2007-04-09 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
I'd say roughly. It's quite a few chapters at least.

Yes, it's a good read indeed. I'd recommend picking it up.

Did'ja ever finish Missing In Action?

No, Harry Potter is distracting me. Soon though!

By a slender margin, however.

Heee!

I need to get of my lazy ass and read the rest of the series...
