Now, usually I am very nervous when it comes to inteviews... I suck at them is putting it nicely... but today I think I had the upper hand, and was really relaxed. The guy was 10 minutes late for our appointment, and 2 minutes into the interview his cell phone started ringing and he had to excuse himself because he had been waiting for this "really important" phone call. Just knowing that the interviewer was messing up so badly really put me at ease. So I aced the interview, and I'm almost positive that I got the job. It also kind of helps that my dad referred me to the job and kind of has some sway in wether or not I get hired.....
That was the best part of my day. The rest was crap. I can't recall everything crappy that happened today, but let's just say it was a non-stop crap fest. The kids were HORRENDOUS today.... I don't think anything short of beating them in public would have straightened them out... well, that, and Daddy being there to set things right... It was one of those "Wait until your Dad gets home" days. The kids were fighting and arguing all the way through out our hour trip to Wal-Mart. Dave was cranky with me on the phone earlier. I had to go pick up a transmission for his truck, only one of the three that we need rebuilt right now... (Couldn't have happened at a worst time!!) Right after leaving Wal-Mart I realized that I needed to go get dinner, and that I was going to have to pick Dave up from work in less than an hour, so there was no point in going home. After leaving Wendy's I drive through the current Detour because of all the damn road construction going on. I come to this really busy intersection (It is rush hour after all!) and I'm making a right turn, so I'm watching the traffic comeing from the left... there was a break in the flow, so I start to go, and right as I start to go and turn to look to my right, there is a guy on a bicycle right in front of my van. I slam on my brakes, but I don't stop in time, and hit the poor guy. GREEEAAAAAAAT! He's okay, his bike is okay... But I'm practically flippin' out..... I jump out of my van all freeked out, making sure he's okay... what should we do? Does he wanna call the cops? Does he want my insurance info? He keeps trying to reassure me that none of that is necessary and that he and his bike is okay... Took about 10 minutes, but he finally managed to convince me that he was okay, and went about his way.
I get to Dave's work and we have about 40 minutes to wait before he gets off work. The kids start in as soon I put the van in park. I tell them like 4 times that they really really REALLY need to be quiet right now. Do they listen? For about 2 seconds. I honestly had to get out of the vehicle for a few minutes because I was about to lose it.
We get home, and I tell Dave that I'm going to the gym. I go to the gym, and it turns out that my membership expired TODAY! And because I didn't come in and renew it, I had to pay $124 instead of just $99 for another 6 months. You would figure that the one escape that I truely enjoy would help.... The treadmills weren't working.... the ab machine was taken.... so I had to wait, and use the really crappy treadmills.... and then, when I go to the water cooler to get some water, I drop a full cup of water on the ground. I dropped the water, looked at it, said yep, and left. Oh, and it turns out that my gym is no longer open 24 hours. Suck ass.
My day was so bad that when I left the gym, I went to the gas station to put air in the tires, and as I was doing that I could just see either one of the tires blowing out, or someone coming around the corner and running me over, or getting car jacked. IT'S BEEN THAT BAD PEOPLE!!
