Break out the Tool

torquillI've never done the Marsh Creek Road run during the daylight hours before.
I got to lab today and found that after I left on Tuesday, Jerry came in to tell people that since there was a bit of confusion on when the midterm was supposed to be, it was going to be next week. Thus contradicting the written date as opposed to the verbal one.
I left early again today, took Railroad to Kirker Pass to Clayton, and ran the lesser Marsh Creek loop. After an hour, I was back in Antioch heading home, and no longer wanted to rip something apart, hex it, spit on it in elaborate ritual fashion, then tap dance the writhing bloody bits into the mud. I am still deeply angry. (What, you thought I'd be happy about this?)
Take note: I do not take well to being jerked around.
I'm just lucky that all it takes to calm me down is a decent stretch of road where I don't have to worry about speeding tickets, because I lack the skill to take the road at more than ten over the limit. I still wouldn't be able to face my lab teacher right now, but I am fit for society at large. Just don't poke me.

Date: 2005-02-24 19:36 (UTC)I'll be at Gaskell's after all... is that offer you made to partner me for Congress last time still open, or are you already reserved? (For a graceful refusal, press 1 now...)
Re: Hush, you
Date: 2005-02-24 19:47 (UTC)Glad to hear that you'll be at Gaskells, Sadly I will be unable to reserve a Congress for you as they were both reserved many weeks ago. I always find it rather perplexing that on average, about half of the dances I do at Gaskells are reserved long before I walk into the ballroom. I would however be happy to reserve another waltz for you. Find me on Saturday and we can figure out which one...

*hug* I hope things get better.
