All screwed up

It's just not my day today. As usual, Thursday is the day where I spend an hour in my second son's school to do some volunteer work; teaching the slower readers program
and, today is the start of the monthly Arts Outreach program which, also, I am one of the volunteers to introduce the eight-year-olds about what Arts is all about.

3 p.m. I was all geared up. Picked the art materials in the school's general office and went up to the respective classroom. 5 minutes, 10 minutes and 15 minutes of waiting...recess was over and the kids are supposed to be in the classroom by then.

It's a hot day and I was perspiring and at the same time a little anxious.

20 minutes had gone. Made a phone call to the person in charge ( to conform the classroom ) and she said "yes, that is the classroom that you are suppose to teach."

"But no one is there! not even the teacher in charge.." I told her.

She was puzzled and I made my way back to the general office to seek help from the administrator.

The lady did a check on the specific classroom and guess what...they had gone for their physical exercises program.

"What??! aren't the teacher in charge notified? doesn't she know that this program is supposed to be at this time..??" I asked again.

I was too exhausted to argue with anyone at that moment.

Made my way home and manged to call habibi...a relieved to hear his voice.

Back home, unload all the stuff which I bought from the supermarket and prepared the food for dinner.

Mood.: Pissed

After dinner. Cooled down a little and headed to my room and workstation.

Damn. The 20 inches LCD monitor is not working! We just had it repaired. Twice.

Now, its blank. Urrrgghh!!
