I was at work for 5 and 1/2 hours today.
I was in transit for 4 hours today.
Shortly before 9 am, we were on 12th street, about ONE MINUTE from the library.
But the other client on the bus was on the manifest to get dropped off before me.
He wasn't going to work.
He likely didn't have an appointment time.
I was.
And I did.
But all that didn't matter.
The driver was new.
New drivers follow the rules like their lives depend on it.
So he turned on the street before the library.
He took the other client.
And I was thirty minutes late.
Other highlights of my day:
I had a bra malfunction. The straps suddenly decided that I was a much larger woman than I am. (the cups continued to tell the truth).
A scoop of almond butter refused to spread on the delicate slice of rye bread.
I fought with the stubborn closet door that attempted to hold my coat hostage.
Then I struggled with said coat that felt like a queen size weighted blanket.
How was your day?
