crankiness++

My primary's an invalid (again) with a deer-in-headlights look at home, kids are yelling and are uncooperative about helping out, 15 people want a piece of my time at work, the Army is threatening to cut off their lunar drilling grant and a cup of hot coffee bounced out of a drink-holder and into my lap on the way to work and my pants and underwear are wet and reek of caffeine. Just... be warned, I will not suffer fools gladly today.

There is valet parking for $8 at the clinic. I have called them and they would be willing to drop me off at Blake Wilbur before parking my car.

ouch! Hot coffee!

and with 15 people wanting your time, and the challenges at home, going home to get dry and clean pants sould take time you don't have.

*sigh*

*hug*

That's only $3 more than their regular parking fee, not bad at all! I wish I lived down there to give you a ride, and I'm glad you have someone as giving as [livejournal.com profile] brian1789 to take care of you, too.

Anything I can do logistically to help with this? You don't need to attend the 2:30-3:30 meeting today, if it helps not to. After that, I could do some amount of running around (or sitting in on other meetings) if it's helpful.

Would an hour at the library help the kids? I'd be up for taking them around 4. (I note that I'm in the Barbie Dream Jeep, but it does have enough seatbelts.)

Ack, hot coffee? I'm glad you're just wet and not hurt!

Many, many hugs... I'm sorry it's being One Of Those Days for you, in spades.

Sympathies. I hope things get better.

I simply spread paper towels on my desk chair, and kept going...

Thanks, but they're scattered now (James at band rehearsal, Kevin's at the hospital with Pat, David's at home...

Thanks... I nearly swerved into the other lane, at the time... thankfully it spilled on my side, not center.
