Forced Vacation

Yeah, it's never a good thing when you get to work, and they tell you to go home. What did I do? Nothing...I arrived at work yesterday and there was A) no air conditioning (I work on the 6th floor - heat rises - typical DC hot sweltering summer - use your imagination), and B) no running water, i.e. no working bathrooms. Since I had only gotten 5 hours of sleep, I was actually pretty happy, until I realized that being a contractor and not working = no money.

There were two emails at work I hadn't responded to on Friday night last week. When I get back to work this morning? 96. Emails. In one day. I suppose if I were a "glass is half full" kinda gal I'd see it as job security...
