Did ya ever have one of those days?
First the scale thing....
Then...FIVE people told me I looked tired today...FIVE...and I'm not. Makes you really feel like you are looking FINE doesn't it?
Then...one person continually asked me if I was ok...continually...??? "Are you sure? You look like you are off today?"
Then an email question to two people turned into an email explosion between 20 people. You know the one that just makes you want to chew off your hands at the wrist rather than reply one more time?
Then...someone ACTUALLY wanted to order plastic neon lit drink coolers (you know those awful fake ice cubes?) as a conference giveaway. There are so many things wrong with this when you work for AN ENVIRONMENTAL FIRM IN A FAILING ECONOMY that I cannot begin to speak them.
At this point I begin to rant - I hate people. I really really just hate people.
Then...I actually found myself saying, "BITCH" when listening to the "every woman" recorded system voice on our voice mail system just for asking me for my password twice.
Some freakin' day.

Uh oh! Sounds like deep breath time, although calling your computer names is a good alternative. Hope it gets better.
As far as your earlier post goes, I'm totally impressed. I could never be or have been at a gym at 7 AM. Way to go!!
PS: Stay off that scale.
Cussing out the phone recording is always ok on my list!
I think the fact that you're going to the gym consistently says a lot. So you're not exactly where you want to be. Give yourself TIME.

That's so funny I'd count that as a good thing that happened today!
I have 'one of those days' fairly often, but your exposition on the subject was beautiful. I once, a number of years ago, was standing next to a newspaper colleague at a urinal (TMI?). He let out a long sigh and asked: "Did you ever have one of those lifetimes?"
I'm with Kiki. :)
LOL... I have had one of those weeks... I am glad I am not the only one. I almost broke my phone after not being able to get into my voicemail - until I realized it was my dyslexia screwing up my password and not just the "bitch" on the voicemail prompt.
