Really, really bad day.

The husband knows how to butter the bread. He magically appeared with a giant box of Stam's Chocolate. And, removed the deer hide form the automobile crevices. That's his job, take the dead birds, etc., out of the automobile grill, and dispatch of the snakes. And I kill the spiders.
:wink:
It's look'n up!

I bet he did butter your bread :wink:

The 'rage' thread got me thinking. Ever had one of those days that just goes bad, bad, baaaad? Everything within 50 feet of you goes sour? I had one of those today. It starts out all chipper because it's my birthday but then one phone call re: a new federal policy that really messes with how we successfully export a valuable Iowa product opens the flood gates of cr*pdom. More export issues that are not easily solved. Then, employees (and people in general) that just need to be sent to timeout for about a year. Then I hit a deer as I'm trying to get from one appointment to another. Then cell-phone-store-purgatory because cell phone keeps insisting it's January 17 - their answer = there's nothing wrong with it.

Thank heavens I don't have a sister to run into my garage door and let my dog out or I would have lost it and I'd need bail about now. (that's a shout out to cytech for his pain and suffering a couple days ago).

Cheer me up. Tell me about your most epic bad day.

Art Vandelay, is that you?

On days like that, I usually listen to that sinatra song-That's life. "Shot down in May. I'll change that tune, when I'm back on top in June" etc.. works better with a good cigar.

probably not my worst day, but worst I can think of atm

long day at work after which I was supposed to run to one side of town to get husband's Xmas gift. Called them at 3:30 (get off work 4:30) and it wasn't in. Decide I would go home and take a nap.

2 miles from home I get run into while I'm stopped at a red light. Guy has no insurance, no license and find out later he has a rap sheet including battery, theft, multiple DUIs, bad checks and on and on.

Finally get home, sit down, and get a call saying my husband's gift came in at 4pm and I could have gone and gotten it instead of being at that light. I just started laughing, probably scared the guy a lot. Plus it was a bad day to be female, so anger was magnified.

I think I remember you telling this story before.

Yeah, was thinking the same thing, I remember the thread.

Back to the question: I can't think of one standout worst day, but today was kinda rough. Between my work schedule and 2 kids, I'm constantly deprived of sleep, so naps are fickung gold...ever have that situation where you're woken up just before falling asleep...like you're allllll relaxed and just about to lose conciousness...and when something wakes you up, you're worse off than if you never laid down and just kept grinding?

That happened to me 5 TIMES today within 4 hours. I have a window where I can get a nap in (no, not at work), and I spent that 4 hours chasing one. 3 kid related, 2 work related.

The key to it all is being able to laugh....so I'll throw this in.

One of the work related ones I had only gotten up to shut off the ringer on my phone, my 2.5 year old asks who was on the phone...my response (in my exhausted despair as I pondered whether I could just lay back down and pick up where I left off): "Some jerk"....my 2.5 year old in that innocent, inquisitive, I'm really starting to learn about the world now so everything is fascinating voice...."Some jerk was on the phone?"...me (slightly more awake now)..."uhhh...no, I said someone from WORK"...my 2.5 year old "Someone from work was on the phone?"....me "Yep, someone from work" *phew*

I hope you enjoyed your birthday, and I hope your first un-birthday of this year is starting off better...
