sereneYesterday was really rough.
I was quite sick (still am), but I had things I had to do. Originally, I had planned to pick up a friend-of-a-friend at the airport, take zir to lunch/dinner, and then drop zir off in the city. Plans are just approximations, though, right?
First, I was/am sick. Second, the car I usually borrow to run errands with is broken, so I had to do the zipcar thing. I reserved the zipcar before I knew I wouldn't be at work yesterday, so I reserved it at the lot near work, which meant I had to go out in the oh-my-god-cold and take the bus to the car lot. Picked up the car with no problem, but on the way, got a call from a family member in crisis. After picking up the car, gathered![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
someotherguy, who was worried enough about me to want to accompany me on the trip, sweet man. Then picked up the friend-of-a-friend at the airport, but needed to figure out a way to go help the crisising family member before driving to the city. Offered to drop zir at the BART instead, but turns out zie wasn't going to the city at all, but to San Anselmo, nowhere near a BART station, so zie went along with me to help the family member. Finally, we drove to San Anselmo, managed not to get lost on the way back, got the car turned in (after a 90-minute extension), and walked home in the oh-my-god-cold for 2 miles, stopping first to eat because I hadn't eaten all day except for half a cinnamon bun. (I could have bused it, but someotherguy hates the bus and I didn't want him walking home alone.)
I got home around 8 or so and totally crashed out until 1 this morning, at which time I was miserable with the head cold and Wide. Awake. Checked my work email, and the boss would like some help with something today, so I'm going to go in and help her with it, then turn right back around and go home. Because oh, my, I do not feel good.
Here ends the whining.
