You Are Scheduled for Service...

Between 8:00am and 11:00am. Or so they make you think. And yet... you know they're not going to get to you then, though you think this time might just be different, and again you give them the benefit of the doubt. Oh, foolish, foolish man!

The Home Depot people were scheduled to come by today to fix the flooring that they had inadvertently installed incorrectly the first time.

10:45am: Call to say he'll be there in 15 minutes.

11:36am: Arrival time, only then do we discover he was supposed to bring the wood with him. Off he goes to fetch them.

12:25pm: Back from the store. How long the job will take? Just a half hour he thinks, no problem.

2:38pm: The job is finished.

I got up early and walked the pup (stopping for one of Coffee Bean's delicious Dulce de Leche Lattes) so I could be at home ready for these guys. I thought I'd make it to the gym (for a heavy arm day), run some other errands, maybe even tan before going into work at 4:00pm. Unfortunately, my whole day was pretty much wasted waiting around. All I did was clear 4 hours of shows from the TiVo. And since I took my shot this morning, I've been super jacked up all day (which going to the gym usually alleviates).

Great! Great day!!!

(Someone else having a heavy arm day... certainly not me!!! BTW, if that guy above was my handyman, do you really think I'd be bothered about all this?)
