Great Day

    Today was a great day...after I got out of work. The work day just didn't seem to go well. We had a conference call this morning where a project manager was frustrated that I did not know the status of a job. Of course it was not my fault. I had been given that particular job the previous afternoon and the information associated with it was incorrect. The guy who had been handling the job is not so good at keeping things right. He also didn't make it in to work today. He was on the conference call though and was completely making stuff up about certain jobs. It is pretty obvious why most people like me more than him. I am better at my job and far less obnoxious. More stuff happened in the afternoon. People acting like the world is ending, blowing small things out of proportion, generally being unpleasant to work with.
    One thing is certain about today. It started looking up as soon as the top came down. There is nothing like having the sun on your shoulders and a small powerful engine screaming in front of you. I need to find a new route to work. There is only one short stretch that the speed limit is above 40. I need somewhere I can get through more than two gears before I am in danger of being arrested for excessive speeding. Oh no, its the coupon suzy commercial again. Must change the channel! I just closed my eyes and plugged my ears.
    Tomorrow is Friday. I may make it through this week yet. Unfortunately tomorrow is Friday the 13th, so I am not making too many big plans for the weekend. Also, I am getting new tires on my car tomorrow and have to burn up the ones I have as much as possible. Safety last!

"Thank you for bringing up that painful memory. While you're at it, why don't you give me a nice paper cut and pour some lemon juice on it!"
