Five minutes too late… December 30, 2009
Posted by spacemom in : Life...otherwise , add a commentThis feels to be the theme of my life lately! I had an allergy appointment yesterday at 8:20am. I must have been smoking crack or perhaps parsley when I made the appointment because this is the slow week of the year. Fortunately, everyone else in Boston is taking the week slow because I was able to drive the speed limit 75MPH on 128! Normally the pace is somewhere between crawl and fall over dead. I got to the appointment right a 8:15. I only had 3 quarters, so I tossed them in the meter and ran inside. Got my shots, and waited…
2 weeks ago, I had a bad reaction after my shots, so right now I am being watched carefully. They wouldn’t even let me go downstairs to grab some coffee. Sheer hell for someone like me who needs coffee. I left at just after 9. I was stuck in a great chapter in my book, so I read the chapter as I walked out to the parking lot. I then saw the lovely day glow orange of the parking ticket on my car. Frick. My car clock said 9:11am…the ticket was writen at 9:06am… This is how it goes….
Work has been way too stressful as of late, so I moved my office around yesterday. I like it much better. I am hiding my computer screen behind a filing cabinet, but I can still look out the window. I don’t see the old dome anymore, but I don’t need the stress of people glancing in my door and asking why I am not working (yeah, but I can’t count the times I work at night, weekends, Mondays…. but G-d FORBID I write a blog post or Facebook when I need a few minutes to let things work on background cycles….)
I like the new setup and I got to clean things up! Never a bad thing….
Here’s to a new year and a new attitude on life!
