What a horrible night.
My day was great, until I didn't get more than 45 minutes of nap before work. I had to show up early for "orientation", which is amusing because I've worked there for at least 3 weeks now. I had to watch a dumb video and such. That ate into my actual working time, too. Then I went to deliver my first pizza (it was just one because the night was slow at that point) and after finding out that the person in the house wasn't a friendly guy, realized I locked my keys in my car. I had to call the store, call a locksmith, and call goldbug (to drive over with a warm car) and wait outside in the 25 degree (F, that's -5 celcius!) weather until someone showed up. Goldbug, my savior, came first. The locksmith then came, and my car was unlocked for $25. Which sucks, but it's a lot better than the only other time I've locked my keys in the car, in Houston, where it was $55 I think.
Usually my door key is in my pocket on my other keychain, not the one that goes in the ignition, but since I took the car into the shop today I gave them both keys on the same keychain and didn't remember to put the door key back on the different chain.
The rest of the night was just like that - delivering in freezing cold weather (it got down to 20/-7), making a lot of mistakes and annoying people - I ended up only getting $25 for the whole night in tips, so with the locksmith I broke even on that. Blergh.
Now, I need to fall asleep hardcore.
