You know, one of those days that whatever you do just seems to go wrong. Mine started ok, but well got worse as it went on.
Got out of bed at around 9 this morning, did the usual morninf routine, brekfast, shower, get dressed etc. Surfed forums listened to music for an hour or so before going to town to do some bits and pieces.
First stop was the job centre (or as I call it, the Joke Centre) although I currently have a job, it's not the best in the world and I wanted to see what jobs may or may not be on offer. So in I march after fighting to get a parking space. see the security guard and tell him I'd like to look at the job points, only to be asked
"Are you in claiming benefits sir ?"
"No" I reply "I have a job, would just like to get out of it and find something else"
His reply was "Then I'm going to have to tell you that you are not allowed to use these premesis unless you are claiming benefits" He then hands me a booklet and sends me on my way. No big deal I guess, just a tad annoying. Before anyone starts there is no shame in going into one of those places to look for work, anything has to be better than working as a part time sales person who only gets full time hours when it suits the managment.
Anyway I'd paid for 2 hours parking, next stop bank to put a cheque in. Open my wallet, cheque isn't there. When I return home it appears I left the cheque on my laptop. Which means a second trip to town for just that tommorrow, the local car parks must love me lol.
Anyway, thats two set backs in the space of 10 minutes, so i decide to goto the local games store, after a battle in my mind should I buy or not buy the C&C first Decade pack, I buy it, and leave with a smile on my face.
Oh yeah then I got stopped on the way back to the car by a very nice young lady, thought I'd pulled for a second, but she just wanted my money, turns out she was looking for people to pay some money each month to shelter. I politley refused, but didn't half feel guilty for saying no, not so much because I feel sorry for the homeless people but because she was rather hot.
Get back to my car, some twit has parked his so that I can't get out, try to locate the moron, but he's nowhere to be seen. So I sit in my car and wait, and I wait some more. About half an hour passes before the twit who blocked me return, I get out, fuming. Tell him that there's plenty space and why did he just abandon his car behind mine like that. Then I look at the reg plates on his car, flaming foreinger who can't speak a word of english. Eventually he moves his car, and I say eventally because he took an age to move his car out of the spot, which would have taken me 30 seconds at the very least to get out of the way.
Anyway get home,play C&C for a few hours, then realise, I need my inhaler, it's not in my jeans pocket, check my leather jacket, it's not there either. Check the car, nope it's gone. After much head scratching I make a second trip to town, do a tour of all the places I'd been nope, it's nowhere, conclusion is it's lost forever. By this time I'm a bit stressed out as I actually need a puff on the thing, sit down and just think for a while and trying to calm down. Decide to pull my room to bits, it had to be here somewhere, and the darned thing turned up under my bed. Feeling like a right wally really lol tearing all the way into town looking for it.
And now, well the keyboard tray on my desk has fallen out, so yeah it's been one of those days.
Sorry for the long post, I just wanted to get that out my system.
