Wednes and the terrible horrible no good very bad day.
I woke up this morning after having nightmares all night. Pretty much set the tone for my day.
Had to be into work at 9am on a Saturday, which I'm not supposed to be in that early but did as a special favor to my bosses. Within 2 hours I get told I'm ruining someone's Christmas, I don't care about customer service, and that [insert company name here] will "never get [their] business again". Then I got a really rude guy who kept repeating the same snide shit to me over and over for a whole twenty minutes.
I can't imagine waiting until the Saturday before Christmas to mail order something and then take it out on the sales rep when you can't get it by Christmas. I mean, did they not know Xmas was coming or what? They have it on the same day every year, after all...
On the way into work, the strap on my brand new backpack purse snapped off. I Emailed the company but of course did not get an answer. Now, I wait. I spent $40 freaking dollars on that purse.
Then one of my coworkers was sick and had to leave early, which meant I had to stay late. I suppose I could've left anyway, but I'd have been knowingly leaving them in a lurch which I didn't feel cool about doing. Then I got some guy that needs his shit sent to Paris, France and some lady that needs me to measure a Viola and a shoulder rest for her and THEN run all this stuff over to the warehouse for her next week. THAT call ended up keeping me at my desk until almost ten after five.
On the plus side, I didn't have to cab it home, I got a ride.
Now I have three whole days off for the holiday.
Tonight, I shall drink mead and be merry, but not too merry since I have to be up at 8:30 to go grocery shopping with H. He likes to go right when he gets home from work, so I have to get up at the ass crack of dawn on a Sunday. Nice, no?
Anyway, I feel much better having gotten that off my chest.
I still have to bake almond cookies and one more kind of bread.
For the NYE party:
Hot hors d'ouvres
Pineapple Cake (even though trifle technically won the voting, the people who are actually attending wanted pineapple cake)
Pajamas
