I am Beaker

Remember Beaker from the Muppets? He was the beaten-on lab assistant that ran around flapping his hands saying "Mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi!"

Today was my review with my boss, and of course I've been out of work for six days, so I had a bit of catching up to. But I also have a very sick rat, so I wanted to get to work early and get as much as possible done so that I could hopefully slip out for a vet appointment.

That would be just the kind of morning that the car would break down, wouldn't it?

So I got to work late, took care of a few things, mercifully rescheduled the review with my pet-friendly boss, got the rat to the vet courtesy of my mom, and got the car to the shop.

(The "few things" at work included trying to track down information for a vendor who called me because one of my co-workers left me as her contact while she's on vacation...which would have been lovely, had her vacation not overlapped two days with mine, and had she briefed me on what situations might come up. So I got to deal with cranky vendors, which wasn't on my to-do list. Dealing with a cranky me, however, will be the first item on her agenda when she gets back.)

The rat has, in the vet's optimistic estimation, less than a fifty percent chance. Oh, but this was funny...in the waiting room, as I cradle my obviously unwell little rat, one of the other clients tries to engage me in conversation...they had a rat once. He was smart. Maybe my rat will get better...then she turns to her son, who has their pet in a pillow case (you know what gets carried in a pillow case, right?) and says "That reminds me, we need to pick up frozen mice for Mr. Snake."

It's curious, a mother's instinct to protect her child...my mom stiffened and sharply inhaled. I was afraid she was gonna go smack the insensitive woman.

Anyway, I got the car to the shop without it stalling and getting me killed. And when I got home, I checked my e-mil, to find a message from another pissed-off vendor. I tried to check my voicemail, but our voicemail system doesn't like my passcode any more. That's ok, if there were any more vendors, I'd probably just feel bad about my inability to help them.

I tried to find a good video of Beaker running around flapping his hands, but I found this instead. It made me laugh, and I needed that.
