Let me preface this by saying that I know there are people who have it far worse than I do.

I had to attend a horrible meeting with people I see once a year at best. It’s hard to explain what they do without outing details of where I work, but I will say that these are the kind of folks who don’t really have a lot of experience in a corporate office. On top of that, a bunch of them are rude as can be and have a tendency to tell absolute lies in an attempt to get the attention off of them.

My best buddy at work went to his second interview for a job he stands a very good chance at getting. It’s a wonderful opportunity for him and his family. Selfishly, I really don’t want to see him go. We’ve worked together for the last (almost) six years and he’s truly been like a brother to me.

I left the house without my oatmeal.

I started developing a gnawing pain underneath my ribcage. At first I thought it was an ulcer. While that’s still a possibility, I think it was mostly stress/anxiety related.

The parking garage under our apartment building is undergoing some kind of renovation, so sections of it are closed off and there aren’t as many parking spaces. Now people who work in the building next door (we share the garage with them) are parking where the residents park. I have been parking in the same spot every day since we moved in. Yesterday someone was parked in my spot. Annoying. Today, someone had just parked their car in my spot. Really annoying. I know it’s just a parking spot, but having to park somewhere else is really messing me up.

There was a new menu for my favorite pizza place under my door when I got home. After the day I had, I could really go for one of their pizzas tonight, but we’re being extra careful with our spending this week. So basically, seeing the menu was total torture.

I’m just happy to be home now.
