It’s Official
Monday, February 1st, 2010It’s a little early yet, but I’ve decided to call it; the year is officially lousy. I’ve had about the most aggravating start to a year that I can recall. I have an ongoing sleep issue that I think is sleep apnea (but I won’t know for sure until after the sleep study), I have a couple of new side projects at work that have required me to go in to work early several times (which exacerbates the sleep apnea issue), my shower began leaking around the door and made a sodden mess of my bedroom carpet, and just this weekend I had to work a Sunday to try to get caught up on work I missed because the plant took a snow day Friday and my hot water heater began leaking gas. I only caught the gas leak because I opened my gas bill and found to my shock and horror that I owed $244. Last month my bill was a little high at $95 but I chalked that up to the cold weather we were having and the fact that the rates always go up a bit during the winter. $244 on the other hand is about half of my normal gas bill for the entire year.
Just a lousy damn year.
