Lemon Water

Here’s some shit.

 

I just argued with a guy at the other manufacturing plant that tomorrow, 4/22/2016, is Tuesday.  We argued for 15 minutes via email.  After I realized what had happened, I immediately said “Hey, Siri, am I going crazy?” (Cuz she's always listening now) and her reply was “I can’t say for sure…”

 

And that’s basically how I feel.  Just trying not to be lost.  I just looked around my desk and realized that I left my lemon water in the kitchen.  I was refilling it, and I noticed that the office coffee pot was empty, so I started making coffee.  

 

I don’t even drink coffee.

 

The reason I make the coffee from time to time is because the coffee machine is right outside my cubicle.  And when people arrive at the coffee, and there isn’t any, they make any variety of noises that range from guttural disgust to resigned sighing… and this brings me down or just annoys me.  So I make sure there is always coffee… that way people just arrive, get their coffee, and make no noises.  And somehow, in my little twisted way, I feel a little bit like the coffee fairy.  “Hey, have you noticed that we haven’t had to make coffee for like 3 months?  I wonder how that is happening..”

 

So I get up, go to get my lemon water from the kitchen, and I notice that the coffee is done.  So I close the lid, and move it to the servicing position, and then I return to my desk.  Sans lemon water.  Forgot the lemon water AGAIN.
