Oh what a day. I wake up at 5 and head out the door by 5:30 only to discover I did not have my wallet. Spent half an hour searching high and low. No sign of the wallet. So I had to call a friend and ask for a ride to work because the gate guards would never let me on base with no ID.
My friend got us here a little late. Not good since today was the rating exam. That's ok, we weren't really late for it cuz everyone was still in the P-Way. I didn't study so I think I probably failed. We'll see. Next thing I know, someone needs to calibrate my test equipment so I go off in search of a termination and try to pry open a stuck drawer. I got it open alright. It came flying right at my face. So now my lip is swelling on the inside and it really hurts to do anything.
Next it's almost 4 in the afternoon and I get a call saying some civilian contractors want to run an aloft chit. It's the end of the day! So I take the paper and then go to get a paper allowing me to move around the base as needed and after I leave one ship to go to another, THAT paper blows out of my hands and into the water! So now I'm running around IDless once again with a fat lip and no ride home because he had business that kept him late.
I finally get to leave around 5, find a ride and get home and call the bank to cancel my card then walk into the kitchen to get something to drink and what do I find? My wallet. The one place I didn't think to search because I NEVER take it in there. HAHAHAHA. SO now I'm stuck with no atm card, but I can live with that because I have everything else including my irreplaceable pictures. So all in all it wasn't the most horrible day even though it seems like it.
