Ever had one of those days where you leave the house, because you had set an appointment for an oil change, and then you are half way there (well actually you pull up to where you think you are suppose to be) and realize that its not the address you googled and set the appointment for, so you ditch the whole idea and drive across town to get to the place you have gone to the last 4 times, because you just don't want to go to a new place anymore.... and then you tell them you get a military discount, and they say ok, sure we will do that, and then you get home and realize they didn't do that, and it seems a whole lot of hassle to have them fix it for $5.
But before that happens you are on the way home you realize its rush hour and you aren't in the correct lane to go north, and then when you try to turn around you get behind the person triyng to turn left out of the parking lot at rush hour, and can't sneak past them to turn right... so you sit there for like 5 minutes while they wait to turn left....
Then you get home and talk to your significant other and no matter how well intentioned the conversation is, and no matter how much the conversation does not have to do with you, you take what they say as a backwards insult (the whole, you should do it this way, because they way you are attempting to do it is silly, and then a generalization about the majority of people is said, and you correlate that to the earlier statement about you being silly about how you think it should be done) and even in your head you realize you are upset, but not directly at them, but that its just that you are having a bad day --- that you don't know anything that they could say that would make it better, but you are hoping they will. And then you finally belt out that you are just having a bad day, and then they don't understand, and then you melt down that you just wish you where in the same place.... bc having a bad day and missing them and saying that, doesn't make it better... and that you are overwhelmed with what needs to get done, but there isn't anyway they can be here to make that easier...
Yeah, that was kinda my day....
It wasn't all bad, but it was a rough day today....
And the truth is, I know I signed up for this, and I know its tough, and I have to buck up and deal, but I am allowed to have bad days, and hate it all the same some times (not all the time, just some times)
(I did finally clean out the fridge though, and I mean deep cleaned the fridge, and I feel a little bit better, funny how elbow grease cleaning can help when having a bad day --- and I have a beer in front of me, because opening a bottle of wine seemed like a bad idea, so I took a beer instead)
