This day has been a bad day from the literal moment it started.
Around midnight or so I grilled up some chicken. I guess it went bad somehow, though HOW I can't imagine, since it was well within its refrigerator lifespan, because no sooner had I finished it than I ended up with pain and nausea that hasn't yet quite gone away. After running back and forth to the bathroom for a while, I finally tried to sleep at around 3AM. I woke up sporadically between 3 and 5; at last, at 5 I woke up decisively, and lay there for two hours or thre hours with an upset stomach.
Around 7:30 or 8 my circadian rhythm kicked in and I passed out till ten, when on those meager hours of sleep I had to drag myself out of bed to go in for my 12 hour day at work. Lacking breakfast material, I decided to leave the house early in the hopes of grabbing something from the cafeteria.
The second, the literal moment I stepped out of the house, it began pouring rain. Now up to this point, it hadn't rained, nor had it particularly seemed like it would, so there I am in my wool coat, which I try not to get wet.
Inexplicably, the usual parking area is crowded -- as it always is these days, for reasons I don't know. It didn't used to be this bad even a few months ago. So I end up forced to park far away, walking to work in the rain. It turns out to be a good thing I came in early, because they have every single access point to the ER blocked off for moronic reasons. I ended up having to go a huge runaround-way through the hospital, arriving at work with no time to spare for my anticipated breakfast.
No sooner do I sit down than one of the hospital big bosses shows and starts asking me to do stuff, and my particular position gets a new responsibility. Nor can I hope to enjoy a breakfast while working, since everyone who's anyone is here lurking around in anticipation of an inspection of doom tomorrow and the next day.
Some days aren't worth having.
