Locked Out

....If last night's commute home wasn't enough, I got into Pittsburgh early (hit EVERY single green light possible) and was outside the Box Office around 9:15, which was 15 minutes earlier than I was scheduled. I knew I'd be the first one there, since Alex tends to be late so I went to punch in my code -- and it didn't work. And didn't work. And didn't work. I punched in my code AND my boss' code (just in case) and neither worked.

And Alex didn't show up - and didn't show up - and didn't show up. She also works late at a bar some nights, so that's why she's usually running late. I doubt I'd want to get to bed at 3 or 4 a.m. and be at the box office by 9:30.

Finally - RIGHT before ten (when we're supposed to open) Alex showed up. We called our boss and tried and tried and tried.... we fought with the keys we had, to see if we could get one to work and finally we were able to get one to work that didn't work the first time, so we got in. But I was FREEEEEEEEEEZING after being outside for 45 minutes. FREEZING. Luckily, it wasn't raining today. And since I drove downtown today (I wasn't trusting the T!) I figured at least I knew when I left work at the end of the day... I'd actually get to leave right away.
