Scrabble.
He tries to distract me with his smile...
...but the plain fact is...
...I kicked his ass at Scrabble.

I'm pretty sure my tailbone is broken. I'm in excruciating pain...to the point where I took ibuprofen for the first time in years. I've also been holding a container of hot soup to my rear, which sort of helps. I can't find any sort of comfortable position, sitting, standing, laying...to be quite frank, it really is a pain in the ass.
I called out from the bakery on only my third night, too, which makes me feel like a jerk. I hope they know how much I value and appreciate this job. It's been going pretty well, besides the fact that I'm pretty bad at making éclairs. (Did you know those things are made with ammonia?)
