Bad Day

Man what a week!

Yesterday was just... insane.  Nate woke up at 4, so by the time we left for daycare/work he had already had a nap.  One of the guys I work with has a baby that's about a month younger then Nate.  He didn't have child care yesterday and brought his daughter in.  We had a long meeting and they they were at, and I swear my milk let down three times - to the point that I had to go to the bathroom and express some.  Try doing that when you're not wearing a nursing bra!

I got to roll right from that into a meeting where I found out I'm losing so much budget that I won't have enough to pay staff.  I'm still not sure how I'm going to work that one out.  I see FTE reductions in our future.  I have such amazing people working for me, I don't know how we'll continue to operate if I have to replace staff.  Of course this didn't come out till the last ten minutes of an hour and a half long meeting. 

By the time the day is finally over I'm so ready to leave.  I pack my stuff, head to the train, find a comfy seat and I'm immediately surrounded by asshole teenagers.  Normally, this wouldn't be that big of a deal expect there was an accident and the trains stopped running.  It was going to take a while for busses to be set up and we were all told to find a different way of getting home.

I live in a different state from where I work.  There are two ways for me to get home using public transportation.  I can take a train to a bus and cross the river, or, I can take a Premium Express bus all the way home.  The Premium Express bus costs $3.50.  Guess who had $1?

Yeah.  Me.

It really did end up working out.  I called a girlfriend and met her at a bar, another friend joined us.  We drank, we laughed, I got a ride home.
