Manic Monday

Craptastic day at work. I usually don't expect much for Mondays, but today I was unusually pissy. And, I don't really want to get into the details. But, I think it is more personal issues than work issues right now. I just try to make it through the day without too many wounds. Really, the work wasn't that bad. Just extremely busy. And, that means, I read a lot, review a lot and stare at a computer non stop. So, that would explain the headache.

Also, I had to go to the car dealer. Since I took the new car on Saturday for a weekend loan to "try" it out, I feel in love with it. Of course, that was the plan for the sales lady. So, I went to sign all the papers in Plano. Downtown to Plano during Dallas rush hour. NOT FUN. About an hour after leaving work, I'm finally there and ready to sign. But, then there is a lot of back and forth. Oh, then they finally told me that they lost my file and I had to redo everything. Ok, I sigh, but try to be patient with this lady. It wasn't her fault afterall. Then, I have sit and wait for finance and to have my new car detailed. Thirty minutes (and two hours later), the GM says, you are number six. We are just so busy. Do you want to come back tomorrow? I just want out at that point. I hadn't been home for 13 hours. I was tired, worried about my "kids", had a headache and anxiety about buying a new car in this crappy economy. Just get my keys, I tell him. Oh, I'll send your salesperson right now. But, he doesn't. So, now, I'm pissed. I just want to leave and I want my own car. I feel kipnapped. Can I not leave?

Yes, I bought the car. The GM did all the paperwork himself. I have to go back for the detail, but get a full tank of gas. He ended up throwing in some other stuff and gave me even more on my trade. I ended up with a way better deal. But, seriously, I did not know if they were going to let me leave. Frightening.

I freaking hate Mondays. But, I'm pretty sure I hate car dealers more.

Bleh.
