Great way to start the day

I had three web pages set to auto publish at 6 this morning when the client wanted them live.  My plan was to get up at 6 and check them.  I woke up at 6 and had coffee and was reading the paper and listening to the radio.  I heard the 'new mail' alert go off on the work computer about 7:15ish and went to check.  Fuck, I'd forgotten something and the project manager was telling me.  Had I stuck to the plan, I would have discovered it myself and fixed it before she saw a thing.

Then shortly after that, I get a note from the woman who is handling Mom's estate.  This is the one I'd already like to have taken out because she is glacially slow and driving me insane.  Today's little missive is that she forgot to deduct the bank and accountant fees from the check she cut and mailed to us on Tuesday.   I cannot fucking believe it.  Oh and her note says she wants me to call her so she can apologize.  Oh yeah. I am rushing to the phone - just rushing.

I sent her a note back and told her to send an invoice to the three of us. I said I would have my bank cut her a check today.  I did not say but surely mean 'it's up to you, bitch, to get your money out of my brother and sister.  I am so freakin' tired of you and this whole thing that I would rather have a root canal than talk to you on the phone about anything much less something that will delay the closing of the estate even longer after I specifically BEGGED you to get it closed as soon as possible.  love, me.'

If annoying things come in three please add the other one quickly so I can kill and move on.
