It’s the last morning before the loooong Christmas weekend, and I’m having one of *those* days. While standing waiting my turn to board the bus, I realized that I had left my pass at home. Luckily, the driver waived me on to the bus anyway. It pays to be a regular, I guess.<\/p>\n
So I’m reading the paper, reading the paper, reading the paper. I look up every now and then to see where we are, and suddenly we’re turning a corner where we aren’t supposed to turn a corner and I realize I’ve missed my stop. I mean, it’s not like I do this every. single. day. So I hop up and get off the bus and have to trudge back an extra half a kilometer to where I was supposed to get off.<\/p>\n
I hike through the mall, as usual, trying desperately to think of something to blog about, and I’m in the queue for Tim Hortons when I realize that I also don’t have my purse with me. I halfheartedly hunt through my pockets, knowing they are empty, and sadly turn away from the ambrosiac smell of fresh coffee and warm muffins. (Sob.)<\/p>\n
But it’s okay, I tell myself as I drag my ass over to the office. We’re having the Children’s Christmas Party in my office today, and Beloved and the boys will be here in two hours. I can hold off without coffee or food for two hours. (Stomach rumbles menacingly.)<\/p>\n
So I’m sitting here trying to think of something to write about (Christmas music? Nope, done. Holiday traditions? Nope, done.) when I realize that I’ve also forgotten the cheese and crackers I was supposed to bring to the kid’s party.<\/p>\n
Really, I think I should have just stayed in bed. I’m having a bit of a caffiene withdrawl fit, so excuse me while I go rooting for coffee dregs in the cups left in the office kitchen. Maybe I can combine enough to make a half a cup to tide me over and warm it up in the microwave?<\/p>\n
Edited to add: I love my coworkers! Dal\u00c3\u00a9rie scrounged up some milkers, I made a pot of coffee and Kerry had Timbits to share.
