clo_againOh buggerit, I'm getting sick. I woke up with a sore throat and hoped it'd go away, but now my head feels like the Nac Mac Feegle used it to play basketball. Goddammit, I was sick for Christmas last year! This is unfair harrassment!
And I really don't want to be in work today. I want to be Christmas shopping. My mother told me I was stupid for not just taking the day off, even after I pointed out I have no money, yes I have holidays but my agency needs at least twice the holiday length in notice to approve them and no one where I work would want to cover reception for me anyway. Everyone around me gets to take half days and holidays at a moment's notice; temps, not so much. Even though it's 10:09am and I have maybe enough work to keep me occupied for the next oh, fifteen, twenty minutes? And that's it until the next post arrives at half one because we really don't get customers in the middle of the week.
So all in all, I should've just called in sick this morning. Except, I really need the money. Yeah. At least the mint humbug I found on my desk is helping the sore throat, if not my teeth.
ALSO. My Playstation 2 was in the delivery van at 6:29am this morning but it hadn't showed up by the time we left at 8:20am, so I'll have to go to the sorting office to get it and oh, I hate Tuesdays. -_-
