Well, today is going like a fart in a car.
I'm about an hour north of NY city in a taxi, which I have had to have turned around to bring us back to NY, because amidst the 3 caches of my stuff scattered around the office that needed to go with me, I forgot about one of them... the one containing my laptop bag and medication, which, sadly I need to stay among the vertical people.
So now my 2 1/2 hr drive is going to about double.
Fuck. I am slightly more absent-minded than average, I admit, but this is a recent high.
Also I'm 51 today. How the hell did I get old?
Today started off with promise. I slept like crap, but today's the day I go to the shipyard to rejoin the HQ, which I've been looking forward to. I ruck-humped a bunch of stuff over to the office last night (cache 2) and stowed it in a discreet spot. I already had some supplies and seasonal clothes there (cache 1). This morning I brought the rest of it (cache 3) and plans changed a bit, so I sat around, talked to a few people, unfucked my plans and got in the taxi when he showed up, after packing cache 1 and 2.
Headed back to the city now. I'm a bit ashamed of myself but at least I'm not causing cascade effects and fucking things up more.
