Ever have just one of those days???

Have you ever had one of those days where nothing seemed to go right?? That was me yesterday. First strike against me was that it was a Monday. Second strike against me was I was tired and semi-cranky. Jonny is getting his 2-year old molars, so he has been up late at night. Sleep does not seem to be a priority of his lately.

Well…I took Jack to the bus stop, as it was cold. We waited, and the bus was late. Jack was occupying himself by playing his Nintendo DS that he got for Christmas. Well, he asked me to drop it off at home, so I did…and after I did, I proceeded to go to work. This was my next mistake…I should have just gone to work, and left the DS in the car…instead, I dropped it off, drove to work, and was not completely focused on what I was doing. What happened?? I was doing 33 in a 25 MPH zone in front of a township cop. Hmmm…what will this officer do???

You guessed it, he pulled me over!!! And, I will be the first to admit it…the stop was well deserved. It was in a school zone, on a road behind the middle school. Now mind you, I don’t speed in town…I don’t’ speed by any school!!! So I was just as mad at myself for being stupid, as this cop probably was for me being stupid. So, he comes to the window, asks me if I knew why he stopped me…I respond with, yes, cause I was stupid, and semi-distracted, and then I give him all the info, he asks how is my driving…pretty damn clean to my knowledge for almost 10 years now. UNTIL NOW!!! He was very cordial the whole time talking with me.

So, he goes back to his truck…does his thing, then comes back, and He tells me how clean my record is…so he gives me a non-point ticket for having one of those covers on my license plate, that is partially covering the words Garden State. I am thinking GREAT NO POINTS!!!! I thank him…and apologize to him again. Then I think…what the hell is that law all about…cause then as I continue my way to work…every car, has the same type cover on their license plates as I do. Hmmm… Not that is matters, because I am thankful and will gladly pay this fine. Just gotta find out what it is.

Then I am rushing around at work, trying to get things accomplished for the meetings I have to attend. Yeah.

Then the next blow happens. I am eating my lunch, at my desk, leftovers of steak (YUMMY) and some salad, and some broccoli in cheese sauce. Well, first the lid to my bowl of salad is cracked, so when I turn it upside down to mix the dressing…some of it leaks out…on my shirt. UGH!!!! But wait…there’s more!!! I then finish my salad, and proceed to start cutting my steak. Get one piece in my mouth, cutting another, but at the same time reading something on the news on my computer…then it happens…I spill the WHOLE PLATE of food on my lap, then onto the floor!!!!!!!!!! Yes…I said on my lap!!! Now, I have some cheese sauce, and some steak marinade sauce on my lap…and in places, that one doesn’t ever wanna see stains like that on the pants!!! Oh, and I was wearing tan colored khaki pants. Now you can really see my dilemma.

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So…I proceed to throw out all of my lunch…that was on the floor. Mad…frustrated…angry…and embarrassed. I had a half day of work remaining. What the Hell??? So, I went to the men’s room and cleaned myself up…then got two pieces of not great tasting pepperoni pizza from the cafeteria. Yeah for me!!

So…think that’s the end?? NOPE!!!!!!!!!!! There’s more!!! About an hour before the day is to end…I went up to get a glass of water!!! That was obviously a mistake. It would seem my klutziness was still active, and I proceeded to spill my water on my shirt, so I had a wet shirt, steak sauced, and cheese sauced pants, and a non-points ticket!!!

And that was how my Monday went!!! How was your Monday?? Hope it was better than mine!!!!

Have a nice day!!!
