A bad start to my week
In my short post yesterday I alluded to the fact that my week started off pretty badly. Here’s a rundown:
- I got up on time but I spent too much time in the shower/getting dressed and I was late getting out of the house. That caused me to miss my bus which isn’t a big deal but it lead to my second mini-disaster.
- It was raining not too bad at first but then the skies opened up and it started pouring. My umbrella was no help especially since I had to stand outside for almost 15 minutes. My hair turned into a complete frizzball after looking nice for the past few days. I was also completely soaked on my right side. My coat was wet well into the afternoon from being so wet.
- After I got on the bus and paid, I noticed that there were no seats so I had to stand. I usually get back off of those kind of buses but it was still raining hard so I sucked it up. I almost fell at one point because we took a corner so hard. But I thought everything was finally evening out until….
- I got my hand and arm caught in the back door of the bus. The back doors generally don’t open at that stop so I was surprised when he opened them. His reasoning? I was standing there so he thought I wanted to get off. Ummmm No! There were no open seats and no where else to stand. Luckily I was semi paying attention and was able to snatch my hand and arm away before any real damage was done. My hand was pretty tender so..
- I called off work. Not only did I burn on of my few remaining days but I burned the bus tickets too since I was already close to home.
All in all it was a pretty rotten day!
