Trainwreck of a day...

Yesterday morning we woke up to rain and cold again. I think Mother Nature was just teasing us with the 70s and sun last week. Umbrellas in hand we made it to our strategy class which ended up being quite eventful! During a presentation, the girl that was presenting flat passed out in the middle of her part. This of course caused a petite pause in the presentation while everyone scrambled to see if she was ok. Then at a few minutes before noon, while another of the presenters was concluding the presentation, a woman from the school opened the door and interrupted the girl in the middle of the presentation to say that they needed the room for a company visit. The teacher explained that we needed 2 minutes to conclude the presentation and the woman at the door was like “Oh, ok that’s fine. No problem.” Now tell me, if it is no problem to wait a few minutes, then why did she have to barge into the class room and interrupt the presentation? She knows as well as we all did that we’d be done as shortly after noon as possible, because nothing stands in the way of the French and their lunch time. Not necessarily eating lunch, just the time allotted for the activity. Rude. After more walking in the rain I came home to book a car for going to some chateaux this weekend to find out that in the two hours between me being in class and the afternoon, the entire fleet of cars that Avis had was now completely sold out. Shopping for stuff for guacamole at the grocery store, not only were the avocados horrible, but they had no green onions! I can’t make this day up. I think it has been raining since I arrived back from Paris. Some sunshine would sure help.
