Yesterday was really a long bad day.When I got to work yesterday morning, my chief asked me, if I knew anything about our boss taking a whole week off. So I said no. Then she told me that, she too, didn't know. There are only 3 of us in our section. And we didn't know that our boss was taking his days off for a whole week. This made us feel bad. Then a job that only our boss knew came around and the two of us left went into a bit of a panic. And I was going to take a day off on Friday,too. Because hiroro went to a confrence on a national holiday, his office told him to take a day off in July. So we had a plan to take a day off together. But there are only 3 of us in our section and if I take a day off, there will be only one of us left. I know it's not a busy time of a year, but it's hard to get around by only one. So although I wanted to have a day off, I couln't ask for one and had to change my plan. I explained my situation and he understood me well. Yesterday hiroro drove me to work because we heard that it'll rain in the afternoon. On our way home, we were stopping at a red light. Then a car driven by a young man bumped into our car. Our car is Pajero Mini and the spare tire case in the rear broke. We talked to the insurance man and policeman and they both told us that it's 100% the young man 's fault. So we have nothing to worry about. Afterwards, we went to the hospital. We were told by the doctor that we both have neck sprain which will take about a week to heal. But within the next 3 days, we have to go back to the hospital for X-rays. II now have bad knee, bad arm and bad neck! This is really painful!! Although this accident was not our fault, an accident is an accident! It made us very upset. The start of this week is really bad, so I have no energy to keep going this week at all!
