July 18th, 2005those days, those terrible, awful days..
You know how some times you just have a really obnoxious day? The kind of day you didn’t expect to be bad, but ended up that way just the same? Y’know, your morning is going relatively well, but then a series of minute events compound to form a giant migraine?
I just had that kind of day.
The gas company won’t come until tomorrow—so I started the day with a cold shower.
I still haven’t managed to go to the grocery store, but it doesn’t matter because my kitchen is still packed—so I started the day without my toast.
I had no cash—so I started the day at the ATM in order to get my coffee.
My coworker wasn’t at work when I got there—so the air conditioner wasn’t on yet and it was hot and nasty muggy.. at 9 a.m.
A new hire at our main office needed my help for a couple of hours—so I was delayed getting the issue started.
My coworker had a bad weekend—so we had a bad Monday.
We found more problems on one of our sites—so we had a bad Monday.
It was hot and muggy and rainy and cloudy—so we had a bad Monday.
Did I mention… we had a bad Monday?
Things… can only get better…
(Sing along everybody! To the tune of “things can only get better”, I forget by whom).

Well, the very nice gas company guy hit on me this morning, so that was entertaining… lol.

Well, I know what you mean. Sometimes you have bad days… and they completely piss you off cause they come unexpectedly.
I get those, too… all the time…
but I also have good days a lot too.
Hope you get a good one soon, too- my day today’s been great. 40 mile bike ride. Talked with best friend&-/date for a good long time (note that she’s both). Slept in. Ate out (never happens). Bought dumbells (something I’ve always wanted but never got). ran errands with my mom (sad that I like it, I know, but it’s fun)… it was great.
Hope you don’t get any more cold showers… it never makes your day go quite as well.

Well I’m glad you had a good day Dave… my good days normally occur on the weekend, when I’m not at work. 😉 And I used to love to run errands with my mom—I still do every time I go home.. actually, I also call her when I am running errands just to chat. 🙂
