Went back to work this afternoon for a half day. I had a follow up appointment written down for 4.35pm Wednesday 19 February, so I would have to leave early anyway.

Was a bit shaky by the time I got there, pleased to take my painkillers, and very glad that I'd decided on a half day. I have a fair amount to catch up on, so I would have never managed to leave at lunchtime if I'd come in in the morning.

Got through some work, required a sugar/caffeine fix around 3.30pm because I was starting to flag and was all organised to leave (apart from having looked up the dental surgeon's address) at 4.15pm as planned.

4.17pm as I was shutting down my computer, the fire alarm went off. Instead of the leisurely trip down in the lift and easy walk to the surgeon's, I found myself walking down 23 flights of stairs, getting the address from a nearby pharmacy, and hurrying to the surgeon's with my cellphone in my hand because I was running late.

Got there and discovered that the hospital had written the appointment down wrong - it's for 4.35pm Friday 19 February. At least I know where it is now. Planned to catch the bus over to Arty Bees, where I was meeting the flatmates prior to grocery shopping, but got tired of waiting. Went down to Lambton Quay where (theoretically) there would be more buses and discovered it had been cordoned off due to the aforesaid fire alarm. Apparently it was a bomb scare.

Walked to Arty Bees instead.

Ate dinner.

Waited a little for a bus, but I was decidedly flagging by then, so I got a taxi home and [livejournal.com profile] maudlinrose and [livejournal.com profile] tamarillow went grocery shopping.

I'll go into work tomorrow, but for the same sort of hours.
