This morning sucks. Work called
This morning sucks. Work called several times with problems last night and I woke up with a miserable headache this morning. I left my cell phone at home this morning. It's not that I've become dependant on a cell phone, it's that it's just become so convenient to everyday life. Example: I was driving in to work this morning and I heard a terrible sound. I looked to my right and about 15 feet from me, on the opposite edge of the adjacent lane, a car decided to drive under the rear tire way of a semi truck. I assume this was an accident. Heh. The rear bumper of the semi (that large metal framing that hangs down below the loading door) rammed the drivers door and lodged. The car was thrown around like a rag doll... just like in the movies. As the car left the ground and returned, large chunks of metal were thrown free of the fray with devastating force. The small auto finally broke loose and rolled to the edge of I-45 South and came to a stop. I didn't see anyone in the car, so I assume they either passed out and fell into the front seat or worse, there was a child in the car and they leapt to the back to tend to the little one. Either way, the front of the car contained no visible people. If I had my cell phone, I could have dialed 911 and maybe shaved a few critical seconds off the response time of emergency services. I came into the office with a list of crap from my boss waiting for me. I weeded through that and here I am... a few conference calls and a meeting later... still with mondo headache and coffee supply reduced to corporate mud. I need some serious OTC drugs and a vacation. Anyhoo, the week is almost over and that's a good thing.
