Something Must Be Done

about Wednesdays! Wednesday has very bad karma or something. It's the one day of the week when things are sure to go downhill no matter how optimistic and cheerful your day may start.

As I'm sitting at my desk trying to round-up the last of the information the CPA needs to finish the SBA applications, I start hearing sirens. First it's the rescue SUVs. Then the sheriff's SUVs. Then it's a fire truck. Then some more fire rescue SUVs. Then one last fire truck. Sirens and horns blaring and all heading toward the construction site where the plant is being rebuilt.

I rush out with my handy camera to take pictures of what is going on but my boss calls and I have to go back in the office.

After I pull up the information he needs, the foreman from the construction site comes into the offices and lets me know what had happened. A forklift at the site had caught on fire. Thank G-d no one was hurt. I have to take my handy camera and take pictures of the burnt forklift.

I'm no expert but it looked like the fire started at the battery and then spread. No one knows what caused it. So, now in addition to pulling up records for the CPA and my boss, I now have to go to the fire department to pick up a report on the fire.

Which really wasn't a bad thing. I had never been in a fire station before. This one had several pictures of 9-11 and of the memorials that people in New York had made at the fire stations up there.

I still dislike Wednesdays intensely. When I got home, I told myself I was going to have a nice relaxing night of writing at least one rant. That didn't work out either. After watching Jeopardy, I fell asleep and didn't wake up for several hours.

Somebody, anybody, please do something about Wednesdays!

Can't do. Oh here Wednesdays is the only day that people work. Monday they are tired of the weekend, Tuesday they are preparing for work, Thursday they dream about the Weekend and Friday they are hysterical and go home earlier because it's weekend already. Oh I love my porties!

Everyone else hates Mondays, but not our beloved Sewaitch....poor old Wedensday cops her wrath. Poor old innocent harmless Wedensday, payday for millions of people across the globe and Seawitch would have it obliterated!

Shame Shame Shame.
