i had enough bad for both of us.
it all started with the silent snake that decided to hang out right outside my car this morning. yes, a snake, and yes i have an irrational fear of snakes. i didn't even notice it until i was driving away, but it still marked the beginning of what i knew was about to be a day from you know where.
so, i was still shook up about the snake when i arrived at the lovely prison they call high school. naturally, i had to decided on hot green tea as the beverage of choice for the morning, and spilt it all down my leg as i was getting out of the car. in case you are wondering, hot tea + leg = OUCH! I somehow, miraculously, made it to my first period as the late bell rang.
My first period class is ap physics online. I had an assignment to do that involved the not so lovely site of webassign. It was a timed see-what-you-know math quiz. I had 90 minutes, knew all the material, and started with confidence. that would mean it was easy, right? WRONG! i spent 30 minutes trying to figure out the notation for pi using webassign's key, another 30 minutes running around the school trying to find a teacher, or anybody, who knew how to use the website, 10 minutes of pure complaining and expressing my frustration, and the final 20 minutes actually answering the questions. no, my grade was not so good (i got a 75... A SEVENTY-FIVE!). i missed 10 questions just because i couldn't figure out the notation for pi! i would have had a 100...on paper...
this whole debacle caused me to completly miss break, and made me late for second period, which naturally means i missed the review for my ap calculus quiz. if only i hadn't spilt the remainder of my not so hot hot tea all over keri...the rest of calculus would have passed fairly uneventful. i still feel really bad...
at lunch, they had ceasar salad. normally this would have been an excellent thing. not today! because of course they were out of ceasar dressing. so i had ceasar salad with italian dressing. oh yeah, and my cheesy bread was burnt. (this wouldn't have been so bad if the rest of the day hadn't already been terrible.)
third period, which is ap world history, started out great. freeman sang us a lovely review rendition of Forget You by cee lo green about early civilization. it was probably the first time i cracked a smile, much less laughed, all day. no worries though, i failed (apparently only by my definition) the test that followed.
i would have been on time for ap biology if i hadn't stayed and talked to freeman about my grade. it doesn't matter, how important can darwin and his stupid galapogos finches be? at least mrs.loweshore didn't give us a quiz or add some other ridiculous assignment to our to-do list.
i was relieved when i got home, that is until i got to the front porch and saw that a spectacular colony of wasps decided to build their nest right in front of the door. the back door was a wonderful second option of entrance into my house.
and just to put the cherry at the top of the giant heep of whatever you want to call it!...
i just murdered an opossum with my car.
...i guess he doesn't have to play dead anymore...
did i mention i probably have a sinus infection as well?
on the bright side: tomorrow has to be better.
'cause you had a bad day
you're takin' one down
you sing a sad song just to turn it around
you say you don't know
you tell me don't lie
you work at a smile and you go for a ride
you had a bad day
the camera don't lie
you're coming back down and you really don't mind
you had a bad day
you had a bad day
