I never get sick. No, really. But my car does.
Wednesday, September 16, 2009 at 10:25AM Whenever I tell someone, "No, really, I never get sick," they put their hand over their mouth and back away from me, like a storm of locusts carrying the most-recent flu epidemic (bird, swine, etc) is about to descend upon me and infect me so seriously that my hair will be sneezing.
But I don't get sick. Sure, every now and then I have a day where I have the sniffles, but really, it only lasts a day. I've never even had the flu, ever.
But what I do have? Days where everything else possible stands in the way of having a great day, all before 9am.
1. Woke up this morning to discover the dog left several "presents" in the hallway.
2. My car wouldn't start.
Sigh.
We had plans to go pick out our new bed tonight (101 item 31: Buy a bigger bed) and I think we're still going to do that, but we're also going to have to get me a new starter (I think) and a carpet shampoo-er. (Hubby finally agrees with me that we need one. Finally. I think mostly because I made him clean the carpet this morning and our little SpotBot was out of soap so he had to scrub by hand.)
After that indignity, he drove me to work and will pick me up later, at which point we shall commence our errands. At least it all happened during a week where we actually have the money to fix things.
And for dinner, there's chicken tortilla soup in the slow cooker, so that's a great thing to look forward to. The day will go up from here. Well, it has to - what would be down from picking up poop and a dealing with a non-starting car? (Wait, don't answer that.)
At least I have my health.
