THIS IS NOT MY LIFE

So this is how my day went yesterday. I went for a practice run on the bus before school started. The holtine said the bus comes by at 20 past the hour. I left my place at 9:07am, surely I would make it on time since the stop is less than a block away. So I waited... and waited. No bus. Just as I was about to give up someone else came to the bus stop, I asked what time it was, 9:45. Apparently the bus comes at 46 min past the hour. Anyway, I got to the university. I had to run a few errands before meeting my aunt and grandpa at the Univ. Hospital around 11:30. He had an appointment at 1:00. At 11:00 I thought I better make my way to the hospital so I have lots of time incase I get lost. I found the cancer clinic right away. That is where my aunt believed his appointment to be. I waited and by the time 11:45 rolled around I thought I got a little concerned because my aunt is always on time. I asked the receptionist if they had checked in, maybe I had missed them when I went to the washroom.
"No, what was the appointment for?"
"A CT Scan."
"He is actually scheduled for that in the Main Hospital in the X-Ray department."
Wonderful. I went the long way around the outside, not knowing that there is a tunnel that goes right to the main area from the cancer clinic. So I went and asked at X-ray if he had checked in for the CT scan.
"No he hasn't, but his appointment isn't until 1pm so he still has time. Oh but his appointment is in the Cancer clininc"
"What?"
She sent me back to the cancer clinic, they then sent me back to X-Ray. It was about noon thirty at this point. I went and got a bite to eat then asked again at X-ray if he had checked in. She then sent me to the other end of the hospital to Admitting, because that's where he has to check in first. He hadn't checked in there either so I waited a bit longer. When it got to be after 1 o'clock I started to get worried. So I decided to make some phone calls to see if I could figure out what happened. I didn't have any cash on me so I had to use a credit card, which they charge you up the wazoo for. After about $15 worth of phone calls and getting no answer I decided to check one more time then go home. I went straight to where they do the CT scan and asked the nurse there. She checked the computer and said they were expecting him at 1 but he hasn't shown yet.
When I got home there was a message from my aunt left at 9:30 saying that his appointment had been cancelled because the scan was broken. Why didn't anybody at the hospital tell me that? If I had been given the right bus time by the operator I would have gotten the message. Arrrg! Oh, well, at least nothing serious had happened.

Anyway I wrote this novel mainly so I wasn't blogging for the sole purpose of telling you the following: I had to sleep on the couch last night because I could here the people next to me getting to "know" each other (in the biblical sense of the word) through the bedroom wall. Gross!
