Day #13

It is now 12:54 am and I just got home from the office, with an 8 am deadline to meet and about 20 hours of work left to do. Life is an ironic bitch, I love how I started yesterday's post with, "I did absolutely no productive work today." And now I'm sitting in my home office, aka in undies in bed.

Also an ironic bitch - Mother Nature. Her and I had a falling out years ago after I walked home in the rain. I was only a 2nd grader, I'll never forgive you. And today you did this:

1:00 pm - Slightly drizzle but I grab my umbrella to walk over to the grocery store across the street. Because for some reason, I am craving Cooler Ranch Doritos. That blue bag.

1:05 pm - Halfway there, I notice my umbrella is strangely bent. I try bending it back and end up snapping the handle off. The rain continues to fall, and I'm holding the umbrella as if its some warped lollipop. I also dropped a red pen about five times during this entire ordeal and stuffed it in my pocket. More on this later.

1:10 pm - Okay it's later, the pen has leaked through my pocket. Did I mention this pen is RED?

1:15 pm - Walking back to the office with Doritos in one hand, umbrella-pop in the other.

1:27 pm - I've dumped the umbrella in the trash can, cursing it as a good-for-nothing. Gorging on chips. It's deathly quiet in the office so my chewing sounds as if I'm stomping on bubble wrap.

1:30 pm - Just remembered that I have this little assignment to do. Oh wait, it's a GIGANTIC assignment and it's due by 8 am Thursday. I think about scrambling....instead I continue to shovel Doritos in my mouth for the next thirty minutes.

2:00 pm - I close the Gmail browser. OMG I KNOW. Work work work.

7:30 pm - Meet up Kumar at theatre for man-date, to see Up in 3D. Ticket ends up being $14. This movie better be the sex.

9:30 pm - Movie is over. Was definitely NOT the sex. Perhaps a quickie. It was cute. I leave mystified as to why anyone would cry. Also, Toucan Sam apparently went from Fruit Loops to movie star.

10:00 pm - Back at the office and completely alone. I blast the music on sans headphones. It is a liberating feeling to sing along to your playlist whilst typing away. GEE GEE GEE GEE.

Midnight - Driving back home. Might I add, it's been drizzling all day. And now, the rain is starting up.

12:06 am - I'm driving through Noah's Flood, except without the ark. Mother Nature is raining down so hard that windshield wipers are at full speed and radio volume is at 60.

12:20 am - I seem to have escaped the storm so I stop to get gas. While pumping gas, the storm finds me and proceeds to wail down some more. Before I go home, I need to drop off some books at the library.

12:30 am - I run for five seconds through the rain to the book drop off. I come back looking like I took a shower but forgot how to take off my pants. Once in the car, the rain magically stops. NOT EVEN EXAGGERATING, NOT ONE BIT.

1:27 am - Right now, finishing this blog and beginning an all-nighter of work.
