I've gone retrograde

Okay. I haven't written in weeks. I haven't finished writing about my trip to Europe and I am months behind in current events and future plans. So, here I am finally, sitting down with my laptop and Blogger.com says it'll be unavailable for maintenance at 10:00. This means I have 30 minutes to write something of worth and without much thought. What timing! Well, my whole week has been a series of bad timings and just plain clumsiness all around. Like mercury, I do believe I've gone retrograde!

First thing: it's April 12 and I still haven't done my taxes and I when that will happen is still in question seeing how we just got whomped with another round of fluffy snow for another great weekend of riding! Monday I started out by being very late to the vet. Last night, I washed my very expensive, light gray, faux fur-lined Burton snowboarding jacket with a bright blue jel ink pen in the pocket. That was not fun. This morning, I left the coffee pot on and had to return home a hour after arriving to work to turn it off. When leaving work at the end of the day, I jumped in my car, started it, jumped out to wipe the snow off the windshield, went to jump back in, only to find I locked myself out, yes with the car still running. I missed my daily work out because of this so I went food shopping instead. Okay. I get home, find I left the wash in the washing machine and as I am hanging it to dry, I discover I have tortured yet another expensive article of clothing — a fine wool sweater shrunk to a negative size 2.
After dinner, I took the compost outside only to return to a locked porch door. Okay, what else?I've probably forgotten. Don't even let me begin to talk about work. It's been pure HELL. Well, the one good thing to happen: the shrimp I purchased was $1 less than the register said it was. I made the girl go back to the deli for a price check and yes! I was right damn it! You see, there are good days and there are bad. And some days you just run out of time and say the heck with it all; because there's always tomorrow....isn't there?
