So I finally get to the point where I can use my Paid Time Off to get out of the bank so I can go home and relax, and slowly the medication I've been downing for the last three days is having some effect. I even feel ok enough to maybe join my friends for the trivia competition in Maitland as a surprise guest (all to be done after hours from normal ( Read more... )
