I feel like an idiot

We were going to do the grind today. Jeremy, Laura, Chris, Mel, Nicole and I. Nicole backed out. Then Chris and Mel couldn't come, no worries, just more room in the car. I booked a black Toyota Yaris through the co-op, parked at 6th and Maple, just a few blocks away. Well I just got home from there. It wasn't there! Weird, so I called the co-op office... "sorry, we have no booking for you today." "Oh shit*, try checking yesterday", I said. "Yes, yesterday, 4:30 to 9:30, a black Toyota Yaris". Goddammit!

Jeremy and Laura, I'm soooo sorry. So we're going to go tomorrow instead. Anyone else interested? I promise I'll book the car for the right day this time. The real kicker is that had I not phoned we would have paid our regular $2 an hour rate for the 5 hours... total $10 for the missed booking. But because I phoned and made them aware that I had been a no show I got charged the no show rate which is double! So $20 and I didn't even go anywhere. I guess that's maybe the $20 bill I found on the ground a while ago... Oh well.

* I didn't actually say shit, but that's what I thought.
