grumpiness: agreeing to housesit for people over the holidays.
Them figuring out the night before that they need toi leave the night before
Telling them to email you in case this is the case as you are headed out for the evening
them emailing the address you have told them several times that you prettty much never use
Realizing when you get home at almost midnight that this is what they did
Having to grab stuff together for the next day and book it to their pace with the dog
It starting to rain when you are *almost* there (not pouring at that point though)
The bed you are supposed to stay in is not actually made
The sheets and quilt smell like baby powder. You are allergic to baby powder scents
The internet is suddenly password protected (but at least I know where they write that stuff down... because of course they do)
The wet cat is demanding your attention
You don't have time or energy to shower, even though you know you will sleep poorly because: smell, new space, too much adrenaline for after midnight
Ugh.
grumpy.
