Exhaustion slowly sets in. Growling while being put in the kennel, the dog seems to have a look of hatred in his eyes. A long day at work and this was the reward. This is more frustrating than the car's fifth breakdown today. Why is this particular day so terrible? Maybe tomorrow will be better.

Someone forgot to set the wet floor sign up. There are approximately twenty-seven steps on the staircase. As expected, colliding with each one causes extreme pain. Clarence claims they could audibly hear multiple cracks. To the hospital where the ER staff begins their examination. It isn't enjoyable at all. Three stitches in the head, two in the arm, and a sprained ankle. Maybe it's bad luck.

Back home. Dog being watched by friends. Daren called to inform that a two week leave had been given to, "rest up and heal". It's not so bad. Maybe some good can come out of this. Maybe it's for the best. Not going to lie, these were a difficult few days — expensive too. Really need to purchase some insurance.
