So, can we say bad day?
The interview on Saturday went well, The lady doing the interview wanted to schedule a face-to-face later this week. She goes in a Monday to find out when the boss wanted to meet me and learns that they hired someone they interviewed on Friday 
I’ve had this project I’ve been working on for awhile now. The lady called to complain about something and just wouldn’t let me get a word in, bitchin at me because I wouldn’t drop everything and rush to her office. When she finally let me talk, I explained that if she would read those notes she wrote herself while I was training her on the software, she would see that she that I said ‘Don’t forget to do this step, or you will have a problem.’ It pisses me off to take an hour (or more) out of my day to tell her to read her notes. Stupid me - never bundle support in the with sale price. Support will ALWAYS be per-incident in the future.
My roommate was fired on Friday and went out of town this weekend. So she needed me to meet with her old company and return things. She is trying to walk me through her key ring and make sure I give back the right keys. Have you ever tried explaining what a key looks like? Gah.
And, I wanted to chat with someone but spent the evening trying to resolve all this other crap. Bummer.
AND, I was hoping for a personal phone call that never came. I hate waiting for the phone to ring. Is there anything that sucks more than that?
Oh, and I started. Lovely.

Phones never ring.
That’s what I’ve learned.
Sorry your day sucked. And about the job. And the dumb clients.
Hope today goes better, and keep searching for work!

Not sounding liek a good day at all.
By the way, I wasn’t the one that was supposed to call was I? You know how my teeny tiny pea brain can get distracted easily

DOH. Sorry bout the monthly visitor wrecking your day. Least it waited till you were home from the beach however…
When I’m feeling as stressed as you were, I do this:
Sit in a quiet spot
Close my eyes
Focus on breathing in through my nose an out of my mouth, then in through my mouth and out through my nose while thinking of someplace or something relaxing.
Do this for about 2 minutes.
You’ll feel a little better and your body will be slightly less irratated. /hugs and tosses some Midol over
