ZRATH SMASH!!!!

It's going to be one of these days...

I got a call from Pascal at 7am.
The operation went so well that they're kicking him out of the hospital today at 1pm.
Instead of tomorrow afternoon. Which means I have to go over there and get him.
But that's not the enraging part. Though I don't know if it's healthy to kick him out that fast.
The enraging part is: I don't have a car. Also, I have to do this during work hours.
Which means I have to bus there and we have to take a taxi back.
I'm trying to rent a car but they've got nothing available right now.
I'm pretty sure renting a car for one day from our local little rental place is cheaper than
a taxi ride from the USC Med Center all the way home. And I would get back to work speedily.
This little miracle of getting a rental car has 15 minutes left to occur at this point.

My bank refused to credit me back some insufficient funds fees that were accrued from a one-day
credit hold on my debit card (loooooong story). They credited me for some of the fees, but not
all of them, eventhough they were all caused by the same thing. $66 in the crapper. (FLUSH!!!)
And this is after they told me yesterday to just call today and have these fees removed!
That's the really enraging part.

The lesser enraging parts include the air conditioning vents at work turning out to not being
open after all, all the fluorescent lights being turned on so it's now WAY too bright in here,
some ijits calling me at home and making me late for work (Lawrence Welk Resort? Wha??),
not having a toaster in the break room to handle the Friday Free Bagels...
Other little things, blah-blah-blah-blah...

Like I said, one of these days.

Hope your day is going better.


EDIT: Guns'N'Roses (not the actual company name) Rent-A-Car found me some wheels!
I'm going right now to pick it up! Woo hoo!!
Yea miracle!!

Hey, that is good news about Pascal!

[kibbles.livejournal.com]

Blame his insurance company.

Insurance company? What's that?
We ain't got no health insurance.
This is the USC Medical Center in Downtown Los Angeles.
We're the only white people there.
Well, except for the occasional streetperson.

Anyway, he's back home and doign fine.
