Never Again. - Edited for clarity
Oh boy, I made lasagna a couple of nights ago and turned out really well. So good in fact, that I wanted to have some the next day for lunch. Little did I know that it would prove to be my undoing. Okay, I'm being melodramatic. I got back to work and at about 1:30, the carbs hit me. I crashed. Hard. I was trying to keep myself awake but it wasn't working. Plus, I was alone in the office so I was having a hard time keeping busy. So I was doing some work at the computer when a couple guys from the RCMP jumped in the office. Literally. Scared the crap out of me. Plus they weren't in uniform so it really messed me up. Anyway, they needed to talk to the other person. I did manage to tell them that she was out without making a complete fool out of myself. Anyway, she gets back and laughs at me. Why was I so rattled by RCMP in street clothes? Maybe because I was doped up on carbs.
But that's just the beginning of my afternoon of clouded mind. I had to photocopy and entire file for this person. The entire 400 page document, the majority of it being two bound documents so I couldn't just put it through the feeder. Well after a couple hours of that and jamming the photocopier better than anyone else in the office had ever seen, I was told that I needed a break. So I took a document over to the detachment. There I met up with one of the members who is friends with Mark. He looked at me and and said that I didn't look so good. I explained everything to him and I think he understood. Maybe not, maybe he was just humouring me, after all, he does know how to deal with people how are out of their minds. So anyway, I gave him his stuff and left. I met up with another person along the way and they said that I had the look of someone who spent too long with the photocopier.
So today when I went to finish the job (that's right, it was a two day job) I only had a bit to do (one hour) and then had a cup of hot chocolate and tried not to do anything too mentally taxing. Oh, I haven't felt like that since I had my wisdom tooth pulled and had to take Tylenol 3.
Good news. Tomorrow I'm getting sworn in as a Deputy Registrar. Now I can swear documents. We are all very excited about this. This big joke around the office is now I can swear. Hmm, doesn't sound so funny when you read it. The one guy who serves all the papers around town was joking that now I can swear at him legally. It's really funny if you say it. Well, maybe it's not. See, that's what carbs will get you!
