Screwed

My emergency bridge repair project is schedule to start on June 1 at 6pm, which is the worst time for me. The project will be day and night for 10 straight days, so no weekends for me. The contractor couldn't start until they have all the materials and the piece isn't supposed to arrive until May 18th. And they didn't want to close the ramp on the Memorial Day weekend, so June 1 the earliest date. This really screws me, because I had a wedding rehearsal on the evening of the 1st, and a wedding on the 2nd, then a trip to Japan on the 4th. I'll take day off for the actual wedding, but I'll miss everything else. We're currently shorthanded, so I can't take more days off, plus I want to do this job, because it's my first. I am currently the only person scheduled to work on this project which is impossible, since I can't be out there for 24 hours a day. Though I will get to work at night like I wanted. Slowly I've been getting the paperwork for this job. We've already had to make a change to it, because there was some extra damage that wasn't accounted for in the original estimate.

Lately our office has been going crazy with doughnuts. For the past two weeks, some one has brought two dozen doughnuts. Last Friday, there were five dozen doughnuts from 3 different places. This was the only day I actually ate the doughnuts, because it was day the schedule for my project was decided and I was feeling down. I told myself no sweets at work unless they were homemade.
