serninBest thing that happened today?
I didn't hit the cow that was standing in the middle of the highway. The car behind me didn't hit me from behind. The car approaching didn't hit the cow. The truck behind that car didn't hit anything.
Otherwise, not a good day.
Two minutes before I was going to get the government car, I was handed a message. The person wanted analysis completed by tomorrow with software I've never seen and a "handbook" which contained 226 pages. My supervisor wasn't in the office. I don't have the authority to say "No. Maybe you shouldn't wait until the last minute."
When I got to my travel destination, I realized that the car has three hundred fifty too many miles on the odometer. The log says 600 miles have been driven since the last log entry. I've only driven 250 miles at most. The gas tank still has 1/4 tank, so I know that I didn't go 600 miles on 3/4 tank of gas. Knowing my office, though, common sense won't straighten out this mess, and I'll be in some sort of trouble.
When I tried to put gas in the car, the credit card was denied.
My throat hurts. I miss the critters. I have to talk to strangers tomorrow.
