A So-Duh Day
ASHLEY PUT IT PERFECTLY when I told her how my day was going. I’d almost forgotten to feed theĀ dog this morning, completely forgotten to bring my snack to work, and to top it off I’d managed to spaz a whole 32 ounce Mountain Dew on the ground before I’d even walked in the doors at work. All before 8:00 in the morning.
It was going to be one of those days.
“So you’re having a “so-duh” day,” Ashley types to me in instant messenger. Took me a few times reading it to get it but her play-on-words was only too true. To be honest, I’m having a “so-duh” week that feels like it’s lasted at least twice as long as any normal week should. I’ve felt stuck at my efforts to accomplish anything – making it places on time, being in bed at time, talking to people normally, listening, working. Not only am I malfunctioning, but my equipment is too. Camera dies. Car runs out of windshield wiper fluid (ok, ok, that one I will take the blame for. It’s not my fault that I love to turn my wipers on just to piss people off on the freeway). Every effort to complete my taxes turns out in chaos and arguments over absolutely nothing because I DON’T WANT TO DO IT. I DON’T KNOW HOW. THE IRS HATES ME AND MY LITTLE DOG TOO.
Strangely, I’ve felt stressed but motivated through the whole horrid five days. I compare it to being emotionally bipolar, but instead its functionally bipolar. I have a clean house, organized papers, taxes done, college papers out and waiting and I still feel like I haven’t gotten a damn thing done.
The irony of the whole thing? Someone in the office unwittingly passing me a sheet on stress management right when I was at a breaking point. I wonder if it was life’s way of telling me, life sucks, so suck in that pouty lip and deal with it.

Wait til you add kids to the mix….lol.
by the way “Me” is just me….Rachel
Dude, you crack me up. With as clumsy as I am…I don’t know if I should pass those genes on anytime soon! Thanks for always commenting, you rock!
Oh gosh! Had no idea your day was this bad! I knew about your mishaps early that morning but I’m so sorry that the whole day ended up being pretty crappy. I really hope you get to have a relaxing weekend so you can feel refreshed for next week.
Hope this week makes up for the last one.
Just for good “luck,” I wish you this Irish blessing:
“All happy endings are beginnings as well.”
What a day, what a day. I hope things have worked themselves out.
But way to be productive even through a tough week!
Everyone has their down days (or weeks) Hey girl, you are tough, so
suck it up and keep on going!! You can do anything you put your mind
to….just look at all your talents ,plus good looks, etc. No sympathy
from here..lol.
