My day in minute detail, because I am just that fascinating

- My alarm did not go off this morning.

+ Waking up was lovely (until I looked at my watch)...

+ Very cute possum in the trash can. He gave me a baleful look when I tried to put a bag in. Sir Now Appearing thought maybe he was having trouble getting out, and kindly set him free.

- My beloved ipod is not working. :( Maybe I'll take it to the Apple store in San Antonio, but it means an entire plane flight without meditation CDs. I'm not sure what I'll do if it's not fixable. I am entirely addicted to my podcasts!

+ Nobody noticed I was an hour late to work because most of them were late, too.

- Got a note from the bookkeeper that I, my boss, and the bookkeeper all forgot about payroll this month. ARGH. I feel really terrible about it. Boss tried to blame it on the bookkeeper, but it is my responsibility, and boss's responsibility to check on it.

+ Since the day couldn't get worse at this point, I nerved myself and called the dentist to make an appointment.

+ Did I mention how the head of Legal Services went into labor last week at our Workers' Rights Clinic? Her husband sent out a cute video of the new baby.

- 4 hours of databasing that I could not foist off on a minion intern because I need the info from the database tomorrow.

- Had to go over to H St for an errand, which involved running after a bus.

+ Got pie from Dangerously Delicious Pies, which came highly recommended and lived up to the hype.

- My boss 1) did not come in today and 2) keeps asking me "how I'm doing now," which is the trouble with being truthful with one's boss -- I am not going to lie and say I'm okay because until I have only one job instead of three, things are not going to be okay.

+ Going to watch the West Wing Thanksgiving episode tonight!
