THE SUCK!

 You know that thing you think about, that if it happened, it would REALLY SUCK!!!

Like… forgetting money when you go out to eat, or not having your drivers license when you get pulled over, or running out of gas in the middle of nowhere?

I had one of those thoughts. I always thought of how much it would suck if I forgot my keys at work. I take public transportation (two trains) to get to work and I park my car about 15 minutes away from my house (about 30 to 40 in traffic). It would take an additional hour or more to go back and get them, and it would be terrible.

Well yesterday, that sucky ass scenario was realized.

And it sucked mose suckily.

You see, I get to my car with just enough time to get my children in a timely fashion. I have never been late to pick them up. My brother is not allowed to pick them up because he isn’t 18 yet and it basically leaves it all up to me.

Well when my happy ass got to my car yesterday evening and I couldn’t get into it (I usually just push a little button the handle and it opens because my key fob sends out a signal from my purse) I was seriously screwed. I threw everything in my bag and purse out onto the hood of my car before I realized that I was dumb and had left my keys at work.

I blame my co workers. When I was leaving I had been distracted by this cackle of bitches hovering around my cube talking about NONESENSE. I just wanted to get out of there so I left in a little bit of a rush and didn’t do my normal "pre-flight check"… and it bit me in the ass.

After 2 years of working here I finally did the stupidest thing ever and left my keys.

I immediately called my brother and told him to head to the school and I’d call when I got off the train (no service on the train cuz it’s underground) and talk to the coaches and see if they would let them go with him this one time.

So I ran back to get on the train and barely got a seat before the thing filled up like a damn can of sardines. And god these people needed showers. Most of them were getting off work and it showed. This one crazy guy sat near me and was leaning forward with his face practically in my lap. I wanted to smack him.

I was glad when he left.

I get off the train and my brother had been calling me and I finally caught the call after his third try. I spoke with the teacher and begged her to let him take the boys. He’s their freakin uncle! I told a tiny white lie and said he was 17 (he’s only 16) and they were like "oooo kaaaaay"… blah!

so I proceeded to run the half a mile (it’s at least half a mile, but it might be a full one) to my office and I was so glad they hadn’t locked the doors yet. I flew up and there were my keys. by this time is was almost 5:30. I knew I wouldn’t get home in time to cook and also go pick up Baboo from his class at 7.

So I let them have frozen pizza and I figured I’d just go pick up Baboo as soon as I got to my car instead of going home. I finally got to my car around 6:30 (and the return train was just as full and I was smooshed against a wall with stink all around me) and I went to get Baboo.

It sucked.

So I had chicken nuggets for dinner.

I’ve discovered that chicken nuggets are a form of comfort food for me. they remind me of being a kid. A happy kid with my Happy Meal and those little styrofoam boxes the nuggets used to come in and dipping in the sauce and loving my life.

Yep.

so that’s what I had for dinner, but I think I had a good work out yesterday so whatever!

Speaking of work outs, I’m going to the gym tomorrow.

I’m sorta excited.

IMAGINE.

Anyway, that sucked so hardcore last night.

I forgot my badge this morning and had to ninja sneak myself into the building. The guy who checks the badges sees me every day and didn’t really pay attention to me so I ran into the elevator lobby and turned my back to him so he couldn’t examine me and now I can’t leave the building till the end of the day. ha ha.

Oh well.

My cubicle gets moved today.

I get 2 new plants to kill take care of. I’m going to name them.

I’ll take pics.

I have a baby pencil I can’t seem to throw away. I just keep sharpening it.

It makes me feel GIANT.

huh?

Anyway, I flee.

My legs hurt.
