Man, I hope this day doesn't get any worse....

Yeah, today has SUCKED royally and it's not even over yet.



Got woken up at 4:40 am by my roommate's alarm clock.  She doesn't quite realize that LOUD COUNTRY MUSIC playing can wake others up in the same place.... Sorry, could not tune it out.  :(

Got to work later than I wanted to because I couldn't get out of bed.  Wanted those extra few minutes... since there is only two of us in the office today it was nice and quiet.  Made a few mistakes in the system and had to contact our system support. 

Apparently when promising someone that something will be sent out THAT DAY via overnight does not always make sense to them so I got a call asking if I dropped my overnight stuff off in time for it to go out... Um, the box doesn't pick up until 5:30 and they are calling before 2pm.  (It's not even 4 as I am writing this, HELLO?!?!?!) Whatever.... At least I was told that I was dependable. 

Ran to the bank after finishing errands for boss and was told "Oh, you have a -$.50 balance in your account."  Thanks for the reminder that I am broke, just put the f*%&ing check in the bank for me. Thanks, buh-bye.  Grrrrr. Why do people tend to point out crap like that?!?!?! (I know I am a loser who is broke all the time and lives check to check just to makes ends meet, thanks.)

Then I decide I am starving (I have been going to lunch late 3 of the 4 days so far this week, what else is new, I am going again late today....) so I want to run and grab something quick and easy so I went to McDonald's

WAIT FOR IT........

Yep, the order got SCREWED UP!!!! I order a meal and 1 extra sandwich.  Got the meal, where was the extra sandwich?  So I call them up because I have had it (the past 5 times I have gone to McD's my order has been screwed up... the last 3 have been MISSING things.... I thought THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO CHECK THE BAGS BEFORE HANDING THEM TO THE CUSTOMER?!?!?!?!  Apparently not...)

Yeah, I am LIVID, so I call up the place and the line is busy.  Shouldn't be surprised there because McDonalds seems to be continually screwing up all the time so of course people would be calling and complaing but it still annoyed me.... finally I get through to the lady and she tells me "all we can do is replace it for you next time."  Excuse me?  Oh boy.... I almost lost it... (At least she didn't tell me "oh yeah, it's sitting right here" like I got the time before.) So I try and say as calmly as possible (which is by all means no easy feat for me) "How is it that the last few times I have gone to a McDonalds (yes, this is a different one then the last 2 time) you can't seem to get the order right?" 

*They have screens to make sure the order is right....
*The order is right on the screen....
*They are supposed to check the bag (at least once) before handing it to the customer

WHY IN THE NAME OF ALL THINGS THAT ARE COLORFUL IS THERE A PART OF THE ORDER THAT IS MISSING?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I don't get it....

She again tells me all she can do is replace my meal next time I come in.  Fine, whatever, I say I will come in another day... (maybe...)

Then I call my sister-in-law because when I get this mad she is ONE OF THE ONLY people who can calm me down... (There is one other but couldn't call them) I proceed to tell her I wanna cry because my day has sucked so far and I explain everything that has happened... She is great, I calm down (eventually).

Ok, back into work.  I tell my co-worker that I am never going to McDonalds again and she laughs and says "yeah right" then I tell her that they AGAIN screwed up my order... Her response: "Well, you order weird stuff. Like no this or no that" (ok.....).  So I say "Yeah, but how the hell do they forget an entire piece of an order?!?!? Don't they check the bags?  Ok, got her on that one.  Still peeved about it though... (Come on, sometimes all a girl wants is a little support... am i wrong?)

Grumble... Gonna cry again so I text my sister-in-law and whoops... accidentally sent it to my co-worker... CRAP!!! Ran to her office and told her I accidentally sent her a message that I meant to send to my sister-in-law... Then I do text her and say tell her I wanna cry again.  She asks why and I say I am gonna send her an email and explain....

Thankfully the email went to the right person....

Now I am sitting here at my desk trying to calm down because if I am lucky I will be out of work at a decent, reasonable hour tonight (if I can ever calm down from being upset then being a dumbass....) 

Yeah, I know things could be worse but man do I pray that they don't get any worse today... I don't think I can take it.  Too many little things going wrong for me today.  :(
