'The Office'

Yesterday was one of those Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Days. The kind of day where you want to bang your head on the your desk, over and over again, but the only reason you don't is because you're too vain and your boyfriend is coming this weekend and you don't want huge bruises on your forehead.

The result of this bad day included taking a second day off of running last night (letting a sore foot heal up on my rest week), eating way too many mini chocolate chips while watching the Biggest Loser (oh the irony, there was a chocolate temptation challenge), and passing out in my clothes, lights on, at 10pm. This morning, I knew my day from hell meant today was going to involve lots of e-mail, phone calls and busy work in anticipation of a Friday deadline. In addition, it was 'feels like 6' outside when I left for work. So I went with my go-to outfit:

Long wool tunic, jeggings, and Uggs. My office is casual. As in, half-the-people-wear-lab coats-and-sweat pants casual. Except my jeggings were MIA, so I wore my most comfortable skinny jeans (which were newly washed, thus not so comfortable). Then:

I waited 30 minutes in the 'feels like 6' weather for a damn bus. Oh well being early to work for some quiet time. 7 express buses passed while I waited. I should have walked the three extra blocks to the damn express stop.

I was too busy for the last 3 hours to go to the bathroom. When I finally got a chance, I almost had an emergency situation because I went to pull down my jeggings (ie no zip) and forgot I had real jeans on. Close to a disaster :)

And now, as I drink my daily diet hot-chocolate (sugar free, with water and a spash of skim) and snack on almonds, dreaming of my marathon race weight, someone is making a Stouffers Lasagna in the pantry.

fail.

  1. Why is it that our own shitty day(s) are so shitty for us, but make other people laugh?

    Sorry that I laughed.
