randomly snarky

Tuesday morning was a fucking mess.

First, I opened a can of tuna for my cat and the lid flipped fish goo and water all over me. Love getting dressed twice in the morning.

Next, after returning to the kitchen, I carried my mug into the dining room and spilled coffee all over the table and floor. Dammit.

When I finally got onto the road, traffic was running smoothly despite a light rainfall. I called home, and as I passed an intersection, saw a cop ready to turn onto the road. I was doing 55 in a 45 but had time to react and slow down. No problem.  

However, just as I passed the cop, I heard "pop!" and my passenger windshield wiper fell off. The police car was now behind me and I began to worry he'd ticket me for the bad blade (and potentially the speeding). I turned my wipers off since the rain was only misting.

I decided to excuse myself from the call to concentrate on my road issues, but the line went dead before I could say goodbye. I looked at my Blackberry and it was cycling crazily between voice dialing, my calendar, email, etc. WTF?

A minute later it began to pour. I turned my wipers back on and the lame one scraped against the glass. Squeak. Squeak.

I arrived at the office without police intervention. The day got better.
