teslanomalyIt is COLD, and also promises to be RAINY for the next handful of days. Yick.
But at least work is keeping me indoors. We've got some sampling to do, but thanks to the rain, the creeks are too high. So instead, I'm filling in for our vacationing office secretary. Since I usually share an office near the back of the building, I'm not at all used to being privy to all the comings and goings of my co-workers.
And, oh, do they bring back interesting tales. Yesterday a woman came back with a dog bite -- she'd stopped to try and get an injured dog out of the middle of the road, and he panicked. After seeing him scramble, hurt, off to one side, she called Animal Control, then went to Urgent Care to have them look at the injury and administer a tetanus booster.
Except that they had no tetanus boosters handy, having re-ordered many moons ago, but never received the stuff. So they sent her to the Health Department instead.
The Health Department couldn't give her a booster either, though. They apparently had no nurse there able to give someone a shot. O_O They just... don't, on Wednesdays.
No nurse. At the Health Department.
God, I love Mississippi.
What amusement shall today bring?
