the_dala at 10:02am on 03/01/2011Today is not just On Notice, today is fired. It is dead to me. It is an ex-day.
Last night, after a day filled with football and good company, I went to bed at a totally reasonable hour. It took me quite a long time to fall asleep. Then I got woken up. And then I couldn't fall asleep again. I tried every conceivable position, I tried counting backwards from a thousand, I turned the thermostat down, I outlined fic plots and elaborate fantasies, I turned Threepio on to read a little. Nothing worked. This went on for hours. I don't know when I finally dropped off, but it was sometime between 4 and 5 am. And I had to wake up at 8.
Then I got to work and all the spots in the jury lot, WHICH IS FREE, were taken. The two cars right in front of me took the fake spots that aren't really parking spots but adjacent to them at the end of the row so you have to squeeze by them verrrry carefully. ALL the fake spots were taken. MOTHERFUCKERS. So now I have to get cash and pay over $10 for the day, counting stupid ATM fees.
And now I'm in such a rotten mood that every tiny little thing will piss me off. It took me three tries to log into my computer and I almost threw the keyboard across the room. I hate being that person. I'm normally very easy-going; most would even describe me as PLEASANT, I'd bet. Not today.
And last Monday was so nice, too. Perhaps I will come back and talk about that later when I don't want to smash everything in sight and then go to sleep on top of the pile of rubble.
