Aug. 10th, 2009 03:13 pmTODAY IS NOT FAIR ON ANY LEVEL.
For a start, my alarm woke me at six am from an awesome dream that I'm not going to go into here, because some things should be kept to oneself, but in an attempt to recapture the dream I turned the alarm off and thus overslept. I feel "Awesome dream!" should be a legitimate excuse for coming in late to work.
Anyway, I managed to not be late via the specialised skills of "showering really fast" and "running for the El". Which means of course that I forgot my lunch. As I am broke and have grown to hate our cafeteria, lunch was club crackers and a bottle of Izze pomegranate soda. Also, it being Monday, everyone is cranky and a bunch of people got angry that their food was thrown out in the fridge-cleaning on Friday and emailed Coworker Fail about it, who emailed the entire company to ask who had cleaned out the fridge.
Which meant I had to reply to the entire company and say "Actually, the building janitors do it every two weeks. There's a schedule of when posted ON THE FRIDGE but I'll make sure reminders are sent out from now on."
I may have been more tactful than that, mind you.
Also it's apparently unsolicited service sales pitch day, and I've had a dozen phone calls from people asking us wildly irrelevant-to-us questions like "Do you ever have to give out awards?" and "When is your lease up in your current space?" the last of which is also super-inappropriate if you won't tell me what company you're calling from.
On a less my-life-is-a-disaster note, let's talk about how I suggested that if there really were a Time Lord on Earth it would probably be Daniel Radcliffe, because DanRad is awesome. And let's talk about how this is because he is startlingly well-mannered, well-adjusted, and socially conscious.

Srsly, keep an eye on this boy. He's bringing Classy back.
