I’ll Take One Nap And A Side of Vacation To Go, Please

One of the women from the Kansas office came down and went shopping with me for office furniture.  We finally found someone who thought it would be a good idea to have something larger than an 8′ conference room table in a 40′ conference room so now – one week away from the move – NOW they want me to go shopping.  Oh, and not regular shopping…BARGAIN shopping. 

We spent the entire day in every filthy dirty disgusting warehouse that sells re-used, refurbished furniture from here to the Mississippi.  I kid you not when I tell you that I am beyond exhausted, exceedingly hot, and excessively sticky.  None of the show rooms had any a/c whatsoever and it was 86 degrees here today. 

And we came home with nothing.

And now I have one week and one day until the move and I have no time left to shop and workloads are due tomorrow and I have to go shopping SOME MORE and I don’t want to and I don’t know if I’ll ever find an end to this sentence so I guess I’ll just stop here.

I’m exhausted folks.  The new office isn’t ready for us to move in.  The contractor is just now telling us that some of the materials didn’t show up.  I still don’t have a front lobby.  Oh, and did I mention that I’m exhausted???  From shopping?  At cheapass warehouses that only had old, disgusting stained items? 

It’s a long holiday weekend coming up and I’m going to relish every moment of it.  That is…if I live that long.

So, do you have any happy pills left? I’m thinking it’s WAAAAY past happy pill time for you.

Come to think of it, maybe I’ll join you….
