The Importance of Being Idle

Terminally Stupid

It's been that sort of day today.
I had missions, the first of which was to go see a an employment agency about temp work. No probs, I had an appointment and everything. Somehow I manage to be late leaving, but it's okay I make it to Stamford on time but can't find the place. No worries, I've got my mobile, give them a call receive directions, job's a good 'un. Except the person I have the appointment with has never heard of me, so we rearrange it for tomorrow and I come home again. I complete my other missions without too much difficulty (dropping off repeat prescription, banking Saturdays takings), then I come home. Have lunch, no problem. Start washing up, waters too hot. I try to let some water out but the plug snaps and I can't reach my hand into the water because it's TOO HOT. So I wait. And wait. Meanwhile I have acquired another job; return some faulty goods we received on Friday. Not a hard job right? Well it is if you're me; I can't find the jiffy bags to pack the things, I can't find the address to send them too because I can't find the delivery note (which I have to return too)! I spend hours looking, turn the house upside down and get nowhere. Meanwhile the water has cooled down, so I wash up, but then due to washing icky greasy stuff I have to empty it out and start again and... do exactly the same thing again; water too hot, chain broken.
I'd just give up now and sit down and do nothing, but I have to cook dinner this evening and I have the feeling that isn't going to go well. It's supposed to be a pork stir fry; it'll probably come out as some sort of disaster. On fire.
Not been a great day so far.
