Why this must be read:

O'Neill receives a valuable gift wrapped up in a very bad day.

Absolutely delightful piece of Jack O'Neill. For the most part the fic is simply Jack dealing with one horrendously shitty day, you kmow, one of those where absolutely nothing goes right. And Charli Booker does this extremely well, it's pure Jack O'Neill, and I dare you not to laugh at his excuses (you'll see what I mean when you read it!). However, what makes this rec worthy is the ending. It's not a save-the-world-SG1-style ending, but it is perhaps of the same magnitude.

It'll take you maybe half an hour to read, and it's half an hour you won't regret.
