Still have not unpacked any more boxes.

Unfortunately I realized the little badge thingy with of course theeeee most awful, horrible, what-the-fuck-was-I-on-when-they-took-that picture on it, is in a box still yet to be unpacked. I’m hoping it’s in one labeled “Desk” but it’s gotten really annoying asking every day “Can you open the gate with your clicker? I’m an irresponsible ass and haven’t brought my badge. Great. Thank you! Oh, would you mind buzzing me through the door? Super!”

That’s what I’ve had to do. Every. Day. This. Week.

So I suppose at some point I’m going to have to unpack at least THAT box. Of course if I wait until this weekend I can make it even - a whole week of driving up to the gate, looking sympathetically at the guard and making the pointy-clicking gesture at the gate, meanwhile mouthing the words “can you open that for me?” because obviously since I am in the car by myself I can’t actually say it out loud. No, it must be mouthed. I figure it’s because of the simultaneous miming gestures I’m making - it requires the complete mime package. Otherwise they would never understand what it is I’m asking for. I think maybe tomorrow I will paint my face all white and wear black just so they get the full effect when I do that.

Of course, it’s supposed to rain tomorrow and I wouldn’t want the white face paint to splatter on my nice black top.
