A glimpse into...
...a day in the life of J. I spent my morning trying to sleep while my dog kept waking me up trying to get me to let her in and out the house a billion times. I wasn't feeling well, and was really exhausted so I didn't feel well enough to go to work. When I finally gave in and got up for good I realized we have no food in my house so I had to run in to get breakfast because being sick, starved and exhausted wasn't taking my day in a good direction.
When I got back from town I found that my dog was apparently better at scavenging for food than I was because she found a box of Ho Ho's hidden in a back room of our house and had tried her best to eat them all. She, of course, spread tattered ho ho box and wrappers all over the house in the process.
Once I gave her a stern talking to and cleaned up her mess, I hopped online and pretty much spent the next two hours managing my bank account (since I discovered I only had $25 in it for some reason) and talking to friends. The bank account thing turned out to be an error thank god, but well illustrated my day.
I went to charge my iPod because it's battery was dead and it froze. I had to reset it and of course it was acting really funny so I had to do a full restore on it.
Next I tried to go to bed, but realized that my dog had chosen my bed to eat the ho hos on. It was covered in dog slobber and chocolate. Great. So I get my sheets into the wash, lay towels over my mattress and try to go to bed.
The DHL guy chooses that moment to deliver my package... and somebody else's. He pounded on the door so loud I thought I was on an episode of COPS. Once I picked up the packages I realized that he had decided to the neighbor's package. Attempting to be a somewhat kind summaritan I decided to deliver it to them as they were only 4 houses down. Nobody was home so I left it on the porch and went back to my house... which I had locked... with me on the outside and no key.
I discovered that my neice left one of our windows open so I had to stack Amazon.com boxes up (those things come in handy) and literally leap through the window.
I finally got back into my house to discover that the coffee machine had started of it's own will, apparently on a timer. I'm not sure why because nobody is typically home during this part of the day which makes me wonder if it does this every day. Well, because I had already made coffee the pot was full, but I had refilled the colinder for tomorrow's pot, and so scalding coffee was cascading off the counter into drawers and all over the floor.
I considered this mess and felt slightly less angry at my dog for her ho ho bing earlier as it was apparent that these things just happen.
Got that all cleaned up, and here I am.
Today has been a catastrophe of epic porportions. It almost reminds me of the worst night of my life when I was working at the convenience store, and the mouse got strangled by my mouse.
I hate today.
