Starting out on the wrong foot
Today started off badly and didn't ever really recover. I think it's an omen of what's in store for the rest of the month of April. Left for work and found I'd lost my front licsence plate on Monday (didn't drive me car for a couple days) and obviously it was no longer on the freeway where I remember running something over (now know it was my licsence plate). Was told by hiway patrol they destroy all the plates they find on the road so I'd have to buy new ones. Number to DVS was busy for hours on end. And they closed at the exact time I was supposed to get off of work. With my luck, I'd be pulled over and ticketed on my way from work to the DMV.

Today at work was the day that would not end. Every time I thought I might get something done, the phone would ring or a new customer would walk in the door. Not that being busy is bad, it's just frustrating at times, especially on a day you're already frazzled. And then the manger meeting didn't get out until 5pm (which my boss swears he told me would be the case, but I was only scheduled until 5pm and he wouldn't have been able to make it in to relieve me in time if that was the case). Ended up working until 6pm, which on a Wednesday puts me in a really tight situation.

Did get new plates (thanks to quick thinking on mom and dad's part about getting cash and meeting at the DMV and then dad driving to my work and putting the plates on my car for me). And I saved an extra couple bucks on the parts for my brakes for my car since I work at Erik's and they have the hookup at the auto store next to the shop. Maybe I'll sleep with my head at the foot of the bed tonight so it can be like I'm getting up on the other side to have a better day tomorrow.
