[The beginning of the end] ... and so it goes
It was the worst start to a morning that Annie had had in a long time. She's slept awful. Well, no. She hadn't slept at all. She'd gotten up early so that she could take out the trash to avoid any questions, taken a shower, gotten dressed and promptly spilled coffee on her suit. After she'd changed and put on new shoes to match, she'd broken a heel.
Giving up on coffee, clothes and shoes for the day, she'd gotten in her car only to find out that she'd left her door partially open and her battery was dead. After a jump from Danielle, she drove to Langley and realized she'd misplaced her ID. After a quick search of her car, she found it between the seats, but that was almost enough to send her over the edge into complete bitch territory.
At her desk, she called down to the infirmary and made a ten o'clock appointment with the doctors downstairs.
Unable to handle any more disasters before she actually got started, she took a five dollar bill out of her purse and headed for the elevator. Coffee from the Starbucks downstairs had to be safer than home, right? She needed to calm down. Now.
