But...but!

Ever had THAT kind of day?
Ya know..the kind where everything you say needs to start off with, "but...but..!"

Well, today the first thing I should have said was, "but...but...my mojo is off so I'm not coming to work today!"

But (!) everytime I opened my mouth, I inserted foot...stuff I say routinely every day was all garbled...never mind the aching hands, or sore jaw from a really bad tooth that needed to be pulled in Dec 'o5, but...but...I don't want to use up alot of sick time for that!

I DID have a great conversation from someone in the same work environment who said I was sooo fab-u-loso, that he wanted to commend my supervisor for my awesome service! And yup, you guessed it....I needed to say, "but...but... that line is busy!" when I had to say, "I apologize for the delay and hold time!"
yeesh!

So as I was driving home, I realized I forgot to submit the info for time I was off the phones at work (also called "exceptions" from normal schedule)....
but...but...I had forgotten my badge, turned in the temporary badge as I left, so I couldn't get back in the building!
I swear! The only thing I didn't get to say today was
"but...but...officer, I swear....(fill in the blanks)"

Ok, had enough buts?
In case you're wondering whose "butt" this really is...it's Finola. Our broken Mini-Rex.
Her butt's so cute, you don't mind seeing it...
See the wet spot? She's saying,
"but...but...my poody bucket wasn't close by!"
