I had an email yesterday when I got home with a ton of attitude about the van picking me up for my partial program, because I missed it yesterday by sleeping in.

They think it was here on Wednedsay but it was not. I was ready to go at 7:15. I slept in yesterday because it was a no-show two days in a row. Not to mention the full week before of no shows waiting to be picked up to be evaluated. I think someone there got yelled at and now they are taking it out on me.

The van comes at 8:00 or later. So this email says it comes between 7:30 and 8:00 and I have to be ready. I spoke to the van driver yesterday, there are no pickups before 8. In any case, I was ready to go at 7:10 today.

If there was no "history" behind this, and I got this email saying "between 7:30 and 8:00" I'd be pretty agitated right now, it being 8:30 and still no van. (In reality I'm expecting it right around now).

I know this is 99.8% my depression getting me riled, but I just had to vent. I have been quite the grump lately.

Anyone remember the cartoon "Here Comes the Grump"? Geez, I think I even remember part of the theme song...
