It's 7:15am. My car sits all by itself in the parking lot. I work in a building with several other State agencies and obviously they are not here today (as the parking lot is at least ½ full by 7am). Theoretically, I had the option to not work today without penalty (something called a "floating holiday"), in reality, I had no choice. We have a major event for our program and I am stuck working 7am to around 9 or 10pm. That's a good 12-14 hour day on a holiday, with no additional compensation. Nice. I am not in a good mood at all, I used my horn twice on the drive into work (if you cut me off, brake for no reason, turn with out signaling after going at least 10mph under the speed limit, you are ASKING FOR IT MISTER!) Why are those people on the road at 6:30am, ON A HOLIDAY?!? Seriously.
At least it IS Friday. Paul is off (sleeping soundly in bed right now) and will be working in our garden today (I am so terribly upset that I can't be there to help). Somehow I'll make it through the day, especially if I stop by Dunkin Donuts for an XL coffee. That is all for now. Have a great weekend – especially those of you who had Good Friday off :)
