I am definitely having one of those days where I should have just said ‘the hell with it’ and crawled back into bed rather than staying up and facing the day. My day started at 5am when our neighbors cat woke us up by serenading us with numerous acts of the kitty opera (the long version) right outside the damn window. I should have just gotten up and stayed up but instead went back to sleep and had bizarre dreams until 735am.. when I woke up without the alarm.

Unfortunately Munchkin’s bus leaves at 750 and its a 5 minute walk.. so that left a very short amount of time to get him dressed, fed, lunch & snack made.. and get myself dressed. I was rushing to put my shoes on and fell down the front steps on my ass. I’m ok.. just a bit sore and glad that it was the INSIDE steps instead of the brick ones outside. We made it to the bus stop just in time.. but I spent the entire walk back listening to my neighbor who is having serious marital issues (as in her husband is a cheating slime-sucker who deserves to be run over by a truck a few times..) all before morning coffee. I got back to the house and went to make said coffee.. and ended up spilling the nearly full pot (all 10 cups of it) all over the kitchen and myself! I suppose that I should be thankful that the coffee was cold, but I don’t really care because it sucked AND it left me without my reserve of very strong coffee to make iced coffees with all day.
