The morning started out like normal with a shower to wake me up. Usually one of the cats will follow me into the bathroom just so they can stare at me and make me feel uncomfortable while I dry off after my shower. Sickos. This particular morning, Benny was in the bathroom with me. Right in the middle of washing my hair I hear the most awful noise come from his little vocal chords. I opened the shower door expecting one of his paws to be completely severed from his body or to see blood spouting from his eyes. Nothing. He was sitting in front of the shower howling as loud as he could FOR NO GOOD REASON. So I had to cut my shower short, just so I could let him out of the bathroom, only to see him sniff around the door a bit and leisurely walk right back into the bathroom. You've got to be kidding me! Stupid cat.
After I finished getting ready for the day I walked upstairs to the kitchen for breakfast. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. I eat it every morning. Mine usually consists of a bowl of cereal, a glass of milk or orange juice, or maybe some toast. It fuels my day (I sound like a commercial don't I?). With all that said, I poured myself a bowl of cereal and opened the fridge to fetch some milk. All of my insides suddenly dropped out of my body as I realized that there was not one iota of milk in the refrigerator. I go through milk like crazy. We have to buy a new gallon every week or so. I try to keep my eye on when we're getting low. I guess I wasn't paying close enough attention because there was NONE left. As soon as the smoke that was shooting out of my ears subsided, I decided I would just leave for work a bit early and grab something at Einstein Bagels. In fact, a bagel sounded like a good idea for breakfast.
So I walked into the other bathroom upstairs only to see that the entire bathroom was in shambles. I have a brand new stark-white shower curtain. It's very pretty, if I do say so myself. Where do you think I found it? Oh yes! It was in a heap in the filthy bathtub with all of the extra tiles and old bath hardware. I swear I saw the shower curtain purposely roll around in the dirt. Just then, Simba (the culprit) sauntered into the bathroom and looked up at me and said "I didn't do it." After looking around a bit I figured out that the orange predator was attacking the vase full of silk flowers setting right above the bathtub. I saw his little teeth marks on the leaves. And in the process of attacking the flowers, he pulled the shower curtain to the floor. Damn cats. I had to have a little chat with both of them this morning. They're both grounded.
I didn't say much to BSC this morning because I was afraid I would bite his head off and eat it with a side dish of Simba souffle if he breathed the wrong way. On my way to work I took my anger out on the other drivers on the road. Now before you claim that I was the one who ran you off the road, please realized that I wasn't driving crazy, all the other drivers had a conspiracy against me and I had to defend myself. I realized just how crazy I was when I was screaming at the top of my lungs at the lady in front of me with the huge 80's bangs. I wasn't mad at her because of her poor driving skills. Nope, I was mad at her because of her huge ugly bangs. They bothered me, and I wanted them gone. If I can see her bangs from behind her while driving in my car ... they're WAY too big. It makes me angry just thinking about them. Kinda like Chuck Norris. He makes me angry just thinking about him. Ugggghhhh!
Surprisingly I arrived at Einstein Bagels in one piece with only a few extra fingernail marks on my steering wheel. I ordered my chocolate chip bagel with strawberry cream cheese (obviously my health was NOT my first priority this morning) and got my milk. The new bagel girl refused to get me a smoothie too, so I went on my merry way to work. Once at work I slowly unwrapped the bagel and opened my milk. I gagged and almost blew chunks upon first smelling the milk. IT WAS SOUR! The sell-by date said 2/21/06. It is just me, or could the date be wrong?
So now I'm here at work, checking blogs and for some strange reason nobody has updated their blog! What's going on people? Can't I get one measly ray of hope for happiness in my day? I'm going to have to give Holli credit for being my only escape from work today. Does anyone have some Ritalin or perhaps some crack I may smoke so I can escape reality for just a bit? Because today I'm going to need it, trust me.

oh darling dear....you DO tell a BRILLIANT story...sorry your misery was my morning highlight!
the shoes are delicious though.
terrible fridays ought to equal FABULOUS weekends every time...without exception. here's well wishes for your saturday!
Sorry i haven't blogged for your entertainment. I just don't seem to have the brain power to handle it. Pregnancy is making me stupid. I really think that if we have any more kids I will be off drooling in a cup somewhere.
great story. you'll need a nice long three-day weekend to recover.
the name of your shoes kills me.
I'm with you on Chuck. I just want to punch him in the face, and I'm not a violent person. Usually. Well, often.
No but I have a three liter of Coke Zero and some chocolate??
hope your weekend got better.
The cat story made me laugh.. I love how the pets pretty much control us.
I'm glad I could be your only escape.. so that I could once again lapse into non-posting mode. However, I had no computer all weekend.
Chocolate chip bagel sounds YUM!!
Your day looked like misery, but at least your shoes were cute. :)
