Today has been one of those dreaded days that I wish I just would have stayed in bed and not done a darn thing but instead it started off pretty bad and didn't get much better. I was involved in an accident this morning and the other guy was a complete prick. (Not a word I use all that often but in this case it is more than true.) I was coming out of my apartment complex and turning to get onto the highway and the guy in front of me stopped short and the rest was history. Luckily we weren't going all that fast considering I was previously sitting and waiting to turn onto the main road but now he's making a huge deal about it. My car took the brunt of the damage compared to his big Ford F150 which only had a bent trailer hitch and a very small scratch of paint from my car. He didn't say much when we exchanged information and I wasn't sure if he was going to turn it in or not to the insurance but I should have known better. I called my insurance like 2 minutes after they opened this morning and he had already placed the claim like 10 minutes after everything happened and complained to them. I told him we could work everything out but he didn't like that...of course not...he's trying to take me for a ride. I guess he doesn't realize that I'm just a poor girl that graduated from college and is up to her ears in college loans and credit card bills. He'll find out soon enough!
Anyway, I ended up getting to work a few minutes late which wasn't a big deal because I have to work late every night this week since it's the last week of the month, but I felt like crap and couldn't even think. My boss wanted me to put together a year-to-date income statement for one of our smaller companies and for the life of me I couldn't remember what to do. An income statement...one of the most important pieces of financial information and I couldn't remember how to put one together. Well, I eventually figured it out and it was right compared to the net income found in the trial balance so I was pleased. This afternoon I worked on my daily calculations and intercompany transactions and had a heck of a time with that too. I think I just need a day off....it's been a long week already and it's only Wednesday. Thank goodness that after work tomorrow we're going out for Happy Hour at Harrah's again. Even though I'm not much of a drinker, I'm sure I could down a few tomorrow with no problem.
Tonight I'm baking my specialty... "Better than Sex" cake. A few of the girls at work heard that I'm quite the little baker and one of our customer service managers is leaving the company on Friday so we decided to all bring in something to pig out on and I'm in charge of dessert. Plus, I have new cake pans and a cake tote that I was dying to try out and I think they knew that too. I get excited over the craziest things, I know.
Anyway back to my baking...hopefully the rest of the week goes better!
Editor's note: The name of the cake does not necessarily represent the writer's feeling on the subject! ;)

Hey.....at least your car wasn't completely totaled like mine was. I still miss that car (lol). Oh well...the other guy was liable. So I guess that was one thing going for me. At least you're okay. Sock it to the creep. And slap these stupid anonymous ad people around to get them off of here while you're at it.
Lindsay, you're a terrific person don't let the jerks of the world get to you. Just remember over half the world are jerks, so most of the people you run into (no pun intended)will be assholes. Just get them out of your universe and move on... don't suround yourself with negative people ... they only bring you down. I know your week will get better because I'll see you this weekend.. haha
