Yesterday, Joy said to me, "It's been one of 'those' days." I understood what she meant right away, but this morning I am experiencing it myself. As my boss said after I spilled the mocha all over the keyboard of my computer, "You should just go home." You know it's one of "those" days when...
The dog wakes you up thirty minutes before your alarm goes off because he has to go out.
When you stumble into the bathroom, you discover that the person who just exited used the last of the toilet paper and went back to bed. The nearest toilet paper is in the closet down the hall.
When you at your neighborhood coffee shop to get a "Happy Bosses Day" mocha for your boss, a man loitering at the nearby tobacco shop makes an obscene gesture at you.
You spill the mocha on the way out of the shop.
The man is still there and repeats his gesture.
You spill mocha in the car.
You spill mocha on the way into the building.
Residents are tramatized because the two newest baby birds in the aviary are dying in the bottom.
Your boss is thrilled about the treat until you spill mocha in your keyboard.
You knock everything out of the closet on to the floor trying to find the hot chocolate for Jeremy.
And it goes on...
Life is fun. And funny.

ok...but in my defense...i didn't use the last of the toilet paper before you went in there--i checked through the drawers where extra rolls normally reside, used kleenex as a last resort, figured others would be forced to do the same until we bought new tp, and THEN went back to bed. i didn't know we had more in the closet and was just going to buy some more.
i do feel for you.
I'm not bitter at you, Joy. How could I be bitter at someone who took my clothes out of the dryer so neatly for me last night? Thanks!
You know what they say, "No good deed goes unpunished!" Sorry to hear about your day - but that was very sweet of you to think of your boss.
Perhaps that obscence gesture was really just a backwards compliment, like "She's so pretty, I'll just..oh wait, that's not what I meant!" Any chance? No? Oh well, the points that count are kept in heaven anyway! Great to see you blogging!
Karyn,
