Monday part 2

I feel like the entire damn world is falling in on my head.

I guess it’s just my week to get crapped on…

I’ve been trying to adjust both my work and band schedules so that I can do both while not losing any time at either. Today I found out I can’t do it the way I’d planned. My boss (who I love to death, by the way, so don’t get me wrong… it’s not her fault) told me there wasn’t any way they could let me work earlier AND take time off on the early days. I understand, but it was the only way I could get the whole band season in. I really don’t want to disappoint my band kids. I didn’t let on to my boss that it bothered me, but it really does. I don’t know what I’m going to do about it.

I waited in line at Wendy’s for a half hour (which really wasn’t a big deal), but then I get to the counter and hear “our credit machine is down”, like they have never heard of the manual swipers (you know, those old back and forth swipers that use carbon sheets. I guess no one does that anymore? Like I said, no big deal, and I literally had just enough cash to pay for my meal. Lucky me, I only have an hour for lunch, so I’m glad it worked out that way instead of having to take something back to work.

Oh yeah, and then I accidentally spilled water on someone’s desk. It’s like one of those slow-mo events… you know what’s going to happen, and yet, you can’t do anything about it. Imagine me saying “Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooooooooooooooooooo” in a really low voice and you’ll get the picture. Granted, it wasn’t A LOT of water, but it’s the perfect day to do so, right?

Josh had a drug test today for his upcoming new job this morning after jumping off my car. He said they cut, not pulled, about 200 hairs from his head. The brain children are going to have to do mitochondrial tests if they need anything to do with DNA. I don’t know a lot about drug tests yet, but I would have imagined they’d pull roots and make it easier on themselves to get a full substance history. Maybe they don’t need it like DNA analysts do. That's why I don't make the drug tests bucks. :)
