Uggg, no seriously, it really has been one of those days.
So far today has been the kind of day where you're in tears before 10am and you know it can only mean one thing, you should probably be in bed with a Lifetime movie and a box of chocolates. Maybe even a bottle of wine. Or two.
So on top of EVERYTHING ELSE that already convinced me that I should have stayed home today, I realize that I can't even spell the title for my previous blog post correctly. Which of course only further solidified what I already knew about the 11th of November, that it sucks SWEATY MONKEY BALLS.
Yes, I just went there.
And yes it did just make me feel a little better.
God, has it ever been one of those days/weeks/months/years.
I am counting on these Nilla Wafers to send me into a sugar coma and allow me to forget, well everything.









Top those Nilla's off with a big chocolate Nesquick and you're me 10 years ago crying in the corner of the girls locker room in high school, thinking FML. Wish it was all that simple again.
We have all been there, don't deny it ladies.

I have a co-worker and her and I call those days "hinge" days. The days when your jaw should just have a hinge so you can unhinge it and begin to dump in the chocolate syrup by the gallons. We've now perfected this lingo and use the term "hinging". Today I am hinging.....
You my blog acquaintance...you are hinging. Hinge on!

I chalk it up to another casualty of 2009... this year sucks. Everyone I know is going into kharmic debt, which only leads me to believe that 2010 is going to ROCK!!! *chin up, buttercup!*

Hate to be that obnoxious person but you spelled "coma" wrong. :) If it makes you feel any better, I basically spent most of August in bed eating candy corn after getting very definitively rejected by several potential employers. There are these nifty new dark Milky Way bars with peppermint that I recommend if you need some chocolate happiness.

RACHEL, Of COURSE I would spell coma with two Ms. Its one of those days, remember? :) Thanks for the heads up though. I am surprised Adam didnt pick up on it before anyone else did!

If it makes you feel better, a friend of mine works at a great little bar in Olympia and I'd be happy to have her pour you a double!

Junket, which bar? Im going to crack up if its one I already frequent.

Ugh speaking of when you KNOW a day is going to be lame: I was washing dishes this morning and broke one of my favorite wine glasses, badly cutting my hand in the process and bleeding all over the white porcelain sink. I started my Sunday morning attempting not to cry out of pain/rage at 9am.
Then I lost my umbrella and am about to get rained on when I leave work.
My plans for the night are to eat soup and watch Lifetime and feel extra pathetic! What a great start to the week! At least a lot of people are feeling this way lately, apparently.

Emily, girrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrl it hasnt been a bad day for me, its been a bad YEAR. Is it a reflection of my drinking habit that I cringed when I read you broke your favorite wine glass? :)
