Yesterday I lost my phone somewhere between the car and the train. It was about to leave, so I couldn't run out and check around the ground. David got a text message last night saying that the phone had been found and we could pick it up at the civic center or such and such. We'll be calling there before we try to go get it, though.

I realized at 11:15 tonight that I forgot to tell the Hollises that David and I had a mandatory meeting tomorrow this morning. It starts at 9. I'm supposed to be at their place at 9.

He said he was probably going to come home early today, because OMGWTF, but I thought he'd come home for lunch and just stay. *shrug ( Read more... )

Work, Part One:
I talked to the director of the child care center today. She was way, way more understanding than I'd let myself hope. She was not indifferent to what I was saying and made it very clear that she had no idea I was feeling that way.
