the universe has it out for me

Work was insanely busy. All departments getting slammed. Banged my right arm on a door handle because I am the Queen of No Depth Perception. Yeah, got a nice hematoma coming up there. Makes it painful to do certain things. Around 0345, some of the analyzer interfaces stopped working. Also, at the same time, the hand held mobile phones also stopped. I was having to manually program orders into one analyzer, while trying to find out why it wasn't communicating with the lab computers, talking on a phone with my supervisor trying to get it sorted out, there are 4 or 5 cardiac patients (most of whom are SERIOUSLY ill) in the ER all at this same time and morning rounds started. Now, any of this happening one at a time over a few days - no big deal. All in the span of two hours, way too stressful. Finally, at 0530, back up arrives. At 0600, more folks come in. Shit finally settles down. On the way home from work, I ran over a squirrel. I often wonder about those squirrels you see running across the road - are they suicidal? This one was. Or just stupid. Ran over it's head. A few miles later, a woman pulls out in front of my car, I lay on the horn and she looks at me as if to say, This is my road. Dude. I nearly hit you because you didn't look both ways. You're lucky I didn't shove your ass into the creek. Also, if you would have just given it a touch more gas, you could have been clear of the lane. Hang up the fucking phone. When making supper, I burned my hand.

If I'm dead in a few hours, you know why. The universe is out to get me. I'm now going to mix a 50-50 of orange juice and peach Schnapps then go hook.

work, work rant
