I really hate when a client gets away with murder. In this case I am talking about paying for 8 hours of my time and then sucking up 14 hours of my life. While I have nothing against the people at this client, I really dislike driving to them when there is no good reason. Everyone could be taking this class remotely and I wouldn't have to spend 4 hours of my day sitting in the car.
Left around 6, got onsite at 7, sat until 9, taught until 4:30. Had a minor heart attack after class. I decided to stay in the area to let traffic die down. I went to a local mall and when I pulled into the mall and grabbed a parking ticket, I realized I had no wallet. I had gone all day without my wallet. Nice move. Problem? I needed three dollars to get out of the parking garage. I had to find someone to validate me without purchase otherwise. I called B to verify my wallet was in fact at home (it was) and then I asked different retailers to help me out. Starbucks came through. I am going to go back tomorrow and give them $3.
After that panic I decided to head home. Yeah. 2 hours later I made it home. B had dinner ready for me. This was sweet BUT.... I had flashbacks to X1. Another situation where they are home all day and have dinner ready and want conversation and want me to eat and I just want to sit quietly and decompress. We will work it out because this time I know what it is I want and how to communicate it better without it turning into a fight. She did make a nice dinner of pasta with meat sauce.
We relaxed for a while and then went to bed. I passed right out. Slept pretty good.
Two more days of the same thing. Whee.
