Jan. 2nd, 2006 12:15 pmI woke up this morning to find my housemates haven't returned from Sassafrass (part of the SMS community) yet; I called the office to find out what was going on, but the receptionist, was, gosh, not here.
Amid many angry grumblings, I was ready for work in record time, and called a cab as I was gonna have to open the office, and walking would mean another hour 'til I got there.
Got here, opened, ran upstairs to get the office manager's phone number to find out if we were even supposed to be open -- no appointments were scheduled, court's not in session, it was after 9 and nobody was here -- and, yes, we were.
On my way back downstairs, I encountered one of the attorneys, who had just shown up; he thought someone had broken in. I've never been at the business end of a pistol, and lemme tell ya, it's a strange feeling. Thankfully, he's a calm person.
The receptionist appeared, and I vacated her post to walk to the store for a cigarette and a soda. On the way, a random stranger slowed his car to make sure I saw him flipping me the bird. What the fuck?
But now I have baba gannoughe, which I happen to believe can be used as a pacifier in any situation imaginable. Life is better.
