This morning I actually left for work a few minutes early. More construction was supposed to start on I-94 this morning so I thought it would be a good idea. It would have been a great idea except for the car accident that made me sit in traffic for what felt like forever. I ended up being 20 minutes late for work.
Yesterday I lent my office keys to one of my coworkers. She had left her keys at home and didn't want to have to run back to get them. We were supposed to see each other at the meeting this morning so it wasn't a big deal. She didn't show up to the meeting this morning. I had no way to get into my office and I have a HUD report due Friday. She had left me a voicemail saying she over slept and wouldn't make it to the meeting. I called her at home and left her a message telling her I needed my keys. I called her office and left her a similar message.
After the meeting I went to my office and found the maintenance guys to let me in. I had taken my laptop to work so I wouldn't have to work in my actual office. The mold cleaning people were there and they didn't want anyone in the building. I'll listen to them, just not the assholes at the agency that tell me not to work there! I set my computer up and took boxes of files from my office but when I sat down to work, I could not open Excel on my computer. All of my report data is on Excel. So I found the maintenance guys again and they let me into the office of one of my coworkers. I didn't think she would be in today so didn't think it would be a big deal. Luckily the woman returned my keys by noon!! I wish I could have slept in!!
I was actually getting work done when my cell phone rang. It was my supervisor. The HUD auditor was there and needed 3 of my files. I had no idea the auditor was going to be there and so have no idea what is in those files. Should be interesting. Jesse had sent me a link to download something that would fix my Excel problem. I packed up my computer and took it to the River St. office where I knew I could hook my computer up to the network and access the internet. Unfortunately the River St. office hasn't had internet access for over a week. Fuck!
I went back to the office I had been working from and was sitting there when the woman whose office I was squatting in showed up. Luckily she was very understanding and didn't care that I had moved into her office without asking first.
I had to leave work early because I had to turn in my final paper by 5PM. It's a good thing I left extra early because there was another accident on the freeway. I can't feel my clutch leg.
Tonight I had dinner with a woman from my class. The same woman that works at the same company as Jesse. I was dreading it a little bit because I'm tired and had a bad day. But it was a nice dinner. She is a nice woman and we have lots to talk about.
Now I'm home. Bedtime will probably be early, depending on how many more bloody mary's I consume. I hope something funny happens to me soon.
