The past few days have been utterly annoying. Started on monday, I guess, with me getting my finger caught in the flip-top of a ketchup bottle. Hurt. On Tuesday, I woke up 1h late only to walk into a bathroom with a floor covered in a huge puddle of water. I guess I was lucky: i had just not closed the valve of the radiator correctly after draining the air the night before. Could have been worse.
Then I arrive at work to find a server problem. No specifics here, but let’s just say it kept me stressed for most of the day. On the way home, tried a Mexican place with the guys, which was fine. Slept 4h last night, had to pump myself up with a sugary diet today, wanted to leave early but didn’t manage, until at 4:20 or so we hear the sirens at the fire station in the distance. Some minutes later, the fire brigande can be heard.
“That took them a while,” one of the guys sayid.
“And sounds really close,” another replied.
A few minutes later a stranger in a blue coverall and a bright yellow vest pops his head in the office.
“There is a cable fire between the two buildings, you are kindly requested to leave the building and gather at your assigned meeting point.”
Packed our stuff and left. The fire was already over when we got out, the guys went back to work and I headed home. Just to get stuck on an overly crowded subway for half an hour, and to have ellbows and other body parts in my face when people tried to shove me aside to leave at the central station.
Sure, all [not as bad as Martin's average day](http://www.martinlormes.de/blogger/2005_12_04_archive.html#113382483947406981) but I am so looking forward to my vacations.
