Grrrr Arrrrrgh
May. 2nd, 2007 02:05 pmSo I get my ass out of bed much later than I should have.
Go to feed the fish and have my morning "Darla Ritual". See this comes from the fact that my Beta Fish tank is overgrown with green algae. So a couple weeks ago I go out and buy a little algae eater. Not a pleco as they grow too big, but a nice little algae eater to help keep the tank clean. I have come to name this stupid fish "Dumbass". See Dumbass apparently doesn't know that 1) he's a fish and therefore supposed to swim around from time to time and 2) he's supposed to eat the green stuff. Dumbass sits in the corner of the tank and every morning I poke him with the fishnet and go "Fishy why are you sleeping?!?!?!" Eventually he swims away and I know he's still alive. This morning I have come to notice that not only is Dumbass NOT eating the algae... he's letting it GROW ON HIM. Just my luck that I manage to buy the fish that is actually a memeber of the Ickthological Society Geared Towards Saving the Algae.
Because I'm running late I don't grab a lunch thinking I'll just run to Wegman's on lunch and get take out.
This morning I got to argue with the copy machine that it WILL take normal paper and do double sided and not keep feeding crooked and jam and rip said paper. Of course this is going on while the COO of the company arrives and gets to hear me muttering under my breath a rather graphic and detailed description of the copier's parentage and sexual preferences.
Finally lunch time rolls around and I run first to AC Moore to look for some things I want. I pick them up and get to the counter only to discover that when I stopped for gas last night I put my debit card in my pants pocket rather than back in my purse. This means I can't get the stuff.
But the lack of a debit card also means... no lunch. I don't generally carry much cash on me and I spent all my cash on Monday when I bought Pho.
So lunch is a stale bag of Doritos that I was able to scrape up enough loose change for. Now I hate doritos in general and stale ones are even worse.
Yep it's a Wednesday
