Early to bed, Early to rise, Makes a man, Freakin Tired before 4pm.

What a day. We had to get up at 5:30 am so we could be ready for Paratransit to pick us up at 7:am for an 8:am appointment with Debbie's eye doctor. It's only a fifteen minute drive but 7:am was the only time they had available. So we get there 45 minutes early and find that the office doesn't even open till 8am. I thought "That's strange, why would they give us an 8:am appointment" so we sit there till 8:40 and finally I ask the receptionist what happened to Deb's 8:am appointment? to which she replied, "her appointment is at 8:50, we don't schedule appointments for 8:00" I said "well that's what it says on the appointment card I have right here" as I pulled the card from my wallet I noticed that it did indeed say 8:50, but the person who wrote it wrote it so hastily that the 5 looked like a 0 and I just miss read it, so I just said oh I guess I don't have the card with me after all. I was really embarrassed. Remembering that paratransit was coming back for us at 9:30 I realized That there wasn't enough time so I called them to reschedule the return pick up time. As i figured they told me that they would have to squeeze us in when ever they could. So long story short we sat and waited for two and a half hours waiting to be picked up. So a 45 minute appointment turned into a 5 hour ordeal.
