ARRGH-EX of the day

[edschweppe]

The tiny screw that holds one of the lenses on my brand-new pair of progressive eyeglasses decided to jump ship this morning - literally the minute before I was supposed to meet the nice new HR person, who'd flown in from Atlanta because this office of the Current Paying Gig does not have any admin staff on site.

Fortunately, she was understanding of why I was so flustered.

Also fortunately, I was able to get to the optical shop before it closed and get things squared away.

But, seriously, universe. Last night's primary results weren't enough of a hassle? You had to add this?
