This morning before I even got to the office, my bank reported a fraudulent credit card charge and my phone experienced its second bizarre battery drain in as many days. Then at work, I had just retrieved from the fridge the two mini-pies left over from an event yesterday—an event that I supplied the food for, because we do rotations—when a male colleague took one of them from me, opened it up and said he was going to eat it even though I had just told him I was taking it for my roommate. WTF. While still processing that, I tried to pre-order an e-book for my dad and had to resort to the customer service chat feature in order to find out that gift purchases aren’t available on pre-orders.

Grumpy #firstworld morning, is what I’m saying.

But. When I went to that colleague’s office afterwards to ask him what he’d been thinking, he explained that he’d misunderstood my intentions; apologized; and on his lunch break bought me a Starbucks gift card.

And the other stuff is being taken care of.

Focus on the positives:

- Another colleague brought in delicious homemade lime curd bars.
- Am going to a sushi-making class tonight, a Hanukkah gift from my mom.
- Watched Queen of Katwe last night and it was good.
- The foot and a half of snow that fell on Tuesday is melting, so if luck holds, I’ll be able to drive places this weekend without worrying too much about being able to park when I get back.
- Three weeks until Montreal trip with synn. Recommendations welcome.
