mitchy at 07:41pm on 01/10/2007Today sucked monkey balls. I mean, I know Mondays are supposed to suck, but this one outdid itself. I'd rant at length but, frankly, it'd bore you to tears and do my blood pressure no good. I suspect most of you will understand if I simply say "40 letters needing handwritten envelopes, 2 copies to be taken of each (double-sided) letter, to be at post room in 50 minutes".
No, they didn't all make it out, strangely enough.
The lack of planning irritates the fuck out of me. If they'd just told me an hour in advance, I could have done labels. But no. And it didn't help matters that I was having to wait for each letter to be printed and signed....If you've read that and you're sitting there doing the 0_o face, that's pretty much what I was doing.
That was the job that finished off my day. Prior to that, there was too many forms, too many phone calls and not enough Mitchy to go round. And I'm PMS-ing. On the plus side, BigBouncy decided we all needed cheering up today after a fruitless meeting about the proposed structure changes and bought a huge cream 'n' jam sponge cake for us all to chomp. Yum.
Coming home, I had to faff about with the long route back through all the really bad rush hour traffic because there had been yet another accident on Cole Green Lane and the road was closed. Finally got to Morrisons only to realise that I'd left the cheque I wanted to pay in at the cash till at home.
The rest of today is cancelled. If anyone wants me, I'll be curled up on the sofa with tea, the cat and mindless TV. I'm not fit for human company tonight!
However, just to close on a happier note, this photo story from the BBC did brighten up my day considerably. Go bear!
