coconut date rolls

insert profanity here

WDE.  (I’m in a TLA mood).  For those who aren’t too UTD… Translations: worst day ever, three letter acronym, up to date But in order to preserve my sanity I will do minimal venting here.  Remember the same horrible co-worker I b$%^ched about a few months ago?  Well, he’s AGAIN up to his evil, sly, scheming ways, and since his lazy apathetic nursing care was compromising the patients, I was forced to do my work AND his just to make sure certain people didn’t die.  AHHHHHHHHH!!!  I could have killed him.  I have never sworn… Read more >
