Wednesday: What a Day!

So today started off normal enough. Then I decided to take my lunch break.

During said lunchbreak I managed to drop my phone in the mailroom and break it. It would still turn on, but there was no display. So...I go to the phone store on post to replace it. 30 minutes later I have crappy phone in hand. Speaking of crappy phones, I'm going to take it back to work and replace it with something else. I dislike it that much. I'd love having a Blackberry or IPhone, but I just can't justify the price right now.

Then it was off to the passport office for the second time in two days. Yesterday I didn't have the correct form, as I have a no-fee passport already and didn't think that influenced my tourist passport. Armed with the correct paperwork I went back today only to be told my pictures were too old. Are you kidding me?

It's seriously that kind of day.

In other news...my boss and I found emails in El Asshat's Outlook account on my computer from the regional accountant. Evidently they were having some sort of tryst. The funniest part? Their nicknames. His was Mr. Chatterbox and her's was Mrs. Giggles. I don't EVEN want to know the story behind that.

Such is my life!

I hate days like that :( When I had to get my latest passport I went and had the picture taken and went the same day, in the SAME clothes, and they told me that my picture was too old and didn't look like me. And yes, I freaked out on them because It was rediculous!

Those nicknames are oh so funny!

Sorry about the passport fiasco - my fiance has been back and fourth about four times trying to get his passport right. They keep contradicting themselves for what they need. VERY frustrating.

Man, I'm sorry. I hate those days.

And those emails...what a dork.

Sorry your day is sucking. My cell phone sucks too. It's so old but I just can't bring myself to drop a couple hundred bucks AND increase the monthly cell phone plan charges to cover an iPhone or BlackBerry. The nicknames in the emails definitely gave me a laugh!

Lindsey said...

Ah friend I'm sorry! HUGS! I hate those kind of days.

That's Mrs. Russell said...

Must have been "crap day for army spouses" or some other such holiday. =) I, as well as the 3 woman I had dinner with all had that kind of day too. GREAT! lol. Feel better!

Do they even sell non-sucky cell phones here for under 200E? We sure haven't found any.

I'm both amused and grossed about about El Asshat's tryst & nicknames.

Sigh...I have to get our passport stuff done soon. I just got my soggiorno done last week and that was all the red tape I could handle for a while.
