Just one of those days

It's been one of those days, typical monday; clutsy monday! It all started first thing this am, the clock hit 12:00am and it was now monday morning. To start my day I ran in to a post in my basement that braces the ceiling, it's been there for the last damn near 25 years ive lived in the house, but this morning I seemed to forget that it was there. This was after I woke up late for work and tripped over a stool in my room. Found out someone keyed the door on my Nitro (duck asses!). Got to work, pinched myself hanging up a part, not sure how I managed that one. Then I went to staple a receipt to an invoice and stapled the air, I completely forgot to put the papers in the staple, they were in my other hand. I think I have dropped everything that I have attempted to pick up. This afternoon I saw an awning ripped off a trailer and flapping in the wind, so I thought I should run out there and get a picture for warranty purposes. I went swiftly, but not swiftly enough, when I got there the instant downpour hit and soaked me from head to toe in probably 30 seconds...as I ran back I saw my dad laughing at me from the window. He asked what I was doing, and I told him...he proceeded to tell me that my shop foreman had noticed that rip months ago and the part was on order, so I really didnt need to go out there. We were out of styrofoam coffee cups up front, so I headed back to the fridge in the coffee room to find some, funny thing, there was no new styrofoam cups in the fridge. A funnel cloud touched down north of our shop, which is perfect because as much as I love storms, I am terrified of tornados. Now three hours after the crazy clouds have calmed our tractor driver has just come in to inform us that the temperature has dropped and it is now trying to snow-which I dont think it will but the thought of it is still unsettling. Ahh what a lovely day!

But really, most days like this would have irratated the shit out of me and I would have morphed in to oscar the grouch by the time I stubbed my toe, but for some strange reason I carry a smile on my face. I don't really understand why, alls I know is I enjoys it!
