Two things that everyone will relate to that are upsetting.
1. I dropped my beautiful white iPhone for the first time since I got it back in April. We're talking wet concrete, a purely cosmetic case and now a scratched top right corner. The worst thing about dropping something like this is the regret felt afterward. The intense, self loathing regret. What was I thinking, carrying that third shopping bag? Do I think I'm some kind of super woman that can carry three shopping bags? Do i think im exempt from the rules of physics and gravity and shit? You didn't even have to bring those bags to the car. You just did because you wanted to kill 57744 birds with one stone because you're LAZY. You're a lazy person. Stop killing birds with stones! It's pointless! It's all pointless!
So there's that.
Which brings us to...
2. Nothing compares to the mental defeat that is running for a train as it pulls away, doors open, train conductor staring at you stone faced as you yell "what the fuck? You're going 2 miles an hour! Let me jump on the fucking train!" Hobos jumped on trains all the time and they did just fine.
After missing the train, I drove in to work, making ms an hour late...be that as it may, as I mentioned yesterday, I am temping. Therefore no one noticed I was missing.
I suppose that can be mental defeat number 3.
So tell me, friends, lovers and readers! How was YOUR morning? Any murderous blackouts to speak of?
