ugh!

There are some things that last just a split second but essentially have the potential to ruin your entire day. Static, for example, is the worst. There is nothing more frustrating than getting out of bed, walking over to the bathroom and getting your first static shock of the day from the door-knob. You're not even awake, for crying out loud! And then the shower? How many times have you not been able to scamper away from the shower soon enough to escape the cold blast of residual water in the pipes before the warm water begins to flow. That's enough to numb my nerves for the next one hour, not to mention have my eyes popping out for the rest of the day. How about buses? Ever helplessly watched two if them pass by right in front of your eyes just because you couldn't cross the road in time? And then you wonder if you missed them because you stopped for a second to curse after the static shock. And if all three happen together? How do you think would you feel? Would you be sitting in your office blogging away looking like Macy Gray crossed with Frankenstein?

Of course.... you could look on the bright side of life and all that. But then again, you could be having a bad hair day.
